How to identify real vs. fake semi-precious stone beads

Seems there's a lot of glass and resin composite beads, fakes masquerading as semi precious stones. In this video I crush the beads, revealing broken shards of what looks like silica stone. Then we use 10x mag jeweler's loupe, to reveal semiopaque cloudiness, imperfect or irregular shape (a good sign) & wiretype green inclusions within the stone.
