Hi, They often treat jade with a by soaking it in a hot hard wax to bring out the shine and then polish it when it dries off, the white residue might be wax that is stuck in the cracks. Find a small area and try and find a not so obvious area and try and scratching it with a stainless steel blade, if it doesn't scratch it is most like nephrite jade.
