From National Geographic: The world s major nephrite production occurs across the Pacific, from the gigantic surface deposits of British Columbia by Fred Ward, JADE, September 1987, National Geographic Magazine. Jade West is the world s largest producer and exporter of nephrite Jade, operating three mines located in Northern British Columbia, 100 miles east of the Alaskan Border. During a short summer mining season, when the area is free from snow, Jade West annually mines 100 tons of jade for export to China. Jade West is also the exclusive supplier of the newly discovered POLAR JADE, described by FRED WARD in the Lapidary Journal, November 1998, as, "the newest, brightest, most translucent, greenest, hardest nephrite yet discovered." . The best jade from each season is selected for jewelry and sculptures created by some of the world s master jade carvers. Other jade is selected for making souvenir products and collectibles. All of these products are available exclusively through The JADE MINE, the wholly owned subsidiary of Jade West. Although a duty free item to the United States, jade is shipped from the Jade West warehouse in Washington State to avoid delays in shipping. Jade in rough form is stored at the company s warehouse near Vancouver, Canada. Call us at: 1.888.538.4525 (US Only) or 604.538.4525 [email protected]
