Jade (jadeite) is characterized by a very special toughness, which among other things makes this stone so valuable. In prehistoric times even weapons were made of it.
There are several sites of Hadeit. The most valuable variety is the Burmese Jade, also called Imperial Jade. Further occurrences are in China, Japan, Canada and Russia.
