Detailed explanation of the process of processing jade rough materials into finished jadeite products

Jade is for pleasure rather than value. After getting used to the clear, translucent, and emerald green jade products, many people find it difficult to accept that such a beautiful thing is actually mined from ugly jade rough materials.

It is said that a mask is ugly, but inside it is gold and jade. After the jade raw material is peeled, you can roughly see the "quality" inside it under the irradiation of transmitted light.

Some of them can be seen with green light reflected from the inside under strong light. Some of them are completely green, while others are just scattered spots. Others show no reaction to strong light at all. How can such ugly "stones" be mined into finished jade products like the ones in store counters? There are many friends who are new to gambling on jade. They know that the stone they are gambling on is jadeite, but they don’t know how to peel and process it. Here the editor recommends to you a detailed explanation of the process of processing jade rough materials into jadeite finished products. Let’s learn about the process of peeling raw jadeite.

Detailed explanation of the process of processing jade rough materials into finished jadeite products:

1. Peeling: Use small hand movements on an angle grinder to remove the skin of the jadeite raw stone. At this time, several deep groove-like marks will be left on the surface of the raw stone. Players do not need to worry too much. Note that this step is very easy to get injured. It is recommended to wear anti-cutting gloves, goggles, and anti-noise earplugs; you can also use a hanging grinder or a bench grinder with a hose and a coarse grinding head to peel, but it is very time-consuming; you can also use a gambling stone cutting machine to directly cut off the skin, but it is easy to cut away the green.

2. After digging out the dirt and peeling the jadeite gambling stone, there will still be a small amount of impurities on the skin deeply embedded in the jade flesh, which must be ground off with grinding heads of various shapes. The standard for digging it out is: you see pure white water dripping and the grinding head feels strenuous.

3. Roughening: In order to remove the skin and dirt, we often use the coarsest grinding head. Next, we need to change to a grinding head of a different grade to carry out the roughening process.

4. Fine grinding: Use diamond abrasive grinding head to fine grind the surface of jadeite raw stone. As water droplets flow by, you can find that the "precious light" begins to appear on the surface.

5. Rough polishing: Use oil stones or sandpaper of different grades to grind the surface of the jade until you can no longer feel any marks on the surface of the jade with your fingers; or use a bench grinder with different types of grinding wheels for grinding. For uneven places, use a hose and a pointed wool grinding needle, and grind with small-grade diamond powder paste.

6. Fine polishing: Mix the diamond powder into a paste, find a piece of bamboo and dip it in the diamond powder paste and rub it back and forth on the surface of the jade. This requires patience and perseverance. When you feel that the bamboo starts to slip on the jade, you are not far from success. You can also use a hanging grinder or a bench grinder with a hose, a wool wheel and high-grade diamond powder paste to polish a large area, and then use a wool ball and high-grade diamond powder paste to polish the uneven fine parts.
