A spike in Chinese demand for B.C. jade is driving a jade rush in northwest B.C., according to B.C. jade producers. âDemand for jade in China is certainly at an all-time high,â said Kirk Makepeace, president of Jade West Group, one of B.C.âs two largest jade companies. âItâs unprecedented whatâs happening [in B.C.].â. Jade West mines jade in Dease Lake and north of Fort St. John.
Jadeite is one of the two minerals called jade. The other jade mineral is nephrite, which is a variety of actinolite. Jade has been used for eons in China and Central America as an ornamental and religious stone of deep significance. The nephrite jade was used mostly in China, although both have been used in both regions. Nephrite is more abundant than jadeite and has few color varieties, ranging only from creamy white to green. Jadeite is found in strongly metamorphosed sodium-rich serpentinous rocks, and is named from the Spanish piedra de ijada (stone of the side) as it was thought to cure kidney stones and other kidney ailments.
