Is the “jade” you bought really jade? Are market value and commercial value the same thing?

The geological definition of jade is a metamorphic rock with jadeite as the main mineral component, that is, jadeite rock, and those with commercial value as gemstones are called jade. This definition includes two concepts: one is jadeite rock; the other is commercial value, both are indispensable. One point that needs to be emphasized here is the commercial value of the gemstone rather than its ordinary buying and selling value.

I would like to tell you about the three elements that make up jadeite raw stone: jade skin, jade mist and jade flesh. Jadeite raw stone is divided into two types: rock jade and gravel jade. Rock jade refers to jadeite that is still in the rock layer. The mining of this type of jade often requires large heavy machinery and even explosives. Or the jade may collapse from the parent rock layer due to weathering, its own weight and other reasons. Since the time is not very long and the skin has not yet been weathered, this type of stone is collectively referred to as new factory stone by players.

Gravel jade is jade that collapsed from the parent rock millions or even tens of millions of years ago. It was transported to various places by external forces such as flowing water, and weathered into complete jade skin and jade mist. They are the representatives of jadeite rough stones, and they are also the jadeite rough stones with the largest output, the highest value, and the most gambling. All the stones we will talk about in the future will also be of this type.
