It's spelled jadeite. The green is all I'm seeing with prices online.

Idk if its real jadeite, would be cool though.

Not saying it isn't jadeite, as it can be so dark green it looks black. Just saying when looking for a value all I find is the distinctly green in color variety.

I have one of those too. About twice the size of the largest you have posted. I was told it is just black jade.

Off the northern coast of CA there are boulders of the stuff.
