Xiuyan "jade," also known as "Dushan jade" or "mountain jade," is a type of serpentine mineral found in Xiuyan County, Liaoning Province, China. It is not technically a jadeite or nephrite, the two minerals traditionally recognized as true jade. Instead, Xiuyan "jade" is composed primarily of serpentine, with varying degrees of impurities that give it a range of colours, including shades of green, yellow, brown, and white.

Yes, Xiuyan jade is considered "real" jade in China, but it's important to know it's a type of serpentine, specifically. its a highly respected traditional stone used for centuries.
