*Jadeite/Jade/Nephrite/Serpentine: Gray-Green Specimen

(In other words, not sure of specific composition)

Very Light Green, Almost Gray

Seller sold it as a “Soft Jade” Specimen

AI defines “Soft jade” as typically referring to Nephrite,

…one of the two main minerals known as Jade (the other being harder Jadeite), prized in Chinese culture for carving and its tough, fibrous structure despite the “soft” name, though some materials like Serpentine are also sometimes called “soft jade” or “serpentine jade” and are actually softer. While nephrite is softer than jadeite, it’s still a tough gem resistant to breaking, often used for carvings, seals, and traditional items, contrasting with jadeite used in fine jewelry.

That’s why soap and water exist. – You get why rocks are so spiritual; you understand that rocks have been around since the beginning of earth ...
