[CarelessWhispersS]

That's so gorgeous! Dream rock right there 😍

[Zachary-whodey]

What a beautiful specimen you got there

🤤 all the cool stuff to be found all over Canada, and here I am in southern Ontario 🤷‍♂️🤣 makes for great summer road trips though!!!

With the Nechako River so low, exposing the river bed, is it likely to have gold if one panned the gravel?

My old warwhouse neighbor was Lyle Sopel...

He always used a gravity saw for Jade. Id suggest the same thing if you can build one!

Nice rock bud

This one is gorgeous, Dan!! I'm no expert, period. But, that doesn't look like serpentine when you shine the light through it. Blessings from Alabama ❤️

I can recall a huge boulder of Jade outside the Library in Vernon BC....

[thstateprospecting]

That thing took a heck of a hit was that from you making it smaller to fit in the saw? Or was it a natural break I know that’s a hard material so if it’s natural holy cow that thing was being slammed down river 😳 thanks for sharing see you on the next one👍🏼👊🏼

Either it is jade (Congratulations!) or it is some seriously petrified green Jello. I bet it is the first. Feel free to send me a slab for further verification.😂

Out of interest, how does this grade in terms of quality?

[TheNich]

What is the hardest rock you have make a hatchet out of it

Lots of Jade in the Rattlesnake Hills of Wyoming.

Wish to find some where i live but so far i have purple amethyst and i have pink opal and a platinum nugget not willing to sale

Is this jade that much different from the stuff found in Asia?

Beautiful nephrite . As a geologist, I do not use the term “jade”. You know the difference - why not use proper geological lexicon (nephrite / jadeite), so you can spread science / knowledge to your followers ?
