{{Info|'''Jade''' is a rare [[materials|material]] with high [[beauty]] but little utility. [[Sculptures]] produced with jade can greatly improve their surroundings, while [[Weapons#Melee weapons|blunt weapons]] made of jade are tremendously effective. Its curious fragility makes it poorly suited to other situations, however, unless you appreciate its striking green color.}}

Jade veins occur rarely on most maps, and must be [[mine]]d before they can be used. Jade can occasionally be found in random cargo pods, and may be [[trade|purchased]] from [[Trader#Bulk Goods Trader|bulk goods traders]]. Once you've completed the [[Research#Deep drilling|research]] necessary to construct a [[deep drill]], it can also be found in small deposits underground.

'''Jade''' tiles have 1,500 health each, making them one of the faster ores to mine. They can be found in smaller veins, ranging from 2 to 8 tiles in size. Each mined block has a base yield of 40 jade, however this is modified by factors such as the [[Difficulty]] setting and the [[Mining_Yield|mining yield]] of the pawn.

== Usage ==
Jade is not required for any recipe. However, jade can be used as "Stony" [[stuff]], so it can be used for items like [[wall]]s, [[sculpture]]s, and [[club]]s. As buildings, it has a high beauty rating.
+
Jade is a high-value material best suited to use in high beauty items that can be made out of stone, especially sculptures and [[royal bed]]s.  Unlike the common stone types, beds made from jade suffer no penalty to [[Rest Effectiveness]].

=== Beauty ===
+
'''Jade''' tiles have 1,500 health each, making them one of the faster ores to mine. They can be found in smaller veins, ranging from 2 to 8 tiles in size. Each mined block has a base yield of 40 jade, however this is modified by factors such as the [[Difficulty]] setting and the [[Mining_Yield|mining yield]] of the pawn.
The most efficient uses of jade are:
 
 
 
* [[Sculpture]]s. Sculptures are very beautiful, and jade sculptures more so. A normal [[small sculpture]] costs {{Icon Small|Jade}} 50 jade for {{+|135}} beauty, then modified by [[quality]]. Jade sculptures allow for very high beauty in 1 place.
 
* [[Fence]]s. Each fence costs {{Icon Small|Jade}} 1 jade, but gives {{+|10}} beauty. 50 jade would give {{+|500}} beauty. Until you can create masterwork sculptures, fences give more beauty per jade than any other item. They also have the advantage of being low [[wealth]]. Therefore, fences are great at raising a ''room'''s beauty (and thus room [[Impressiveness]]).
 
: However, jade fences consume a lot of space; they are worse than sculptures at raising the ''pawn'' [[beauty|beauty need]]. Colonists check for beauty within an 8-tile radius, and you can't easily fit 50 or so fences into a colonist's sight. In addition, the actual space constraint can be an issue for many base setups.
 
 
 
If you have a surplus of jade, then it can be used for [[wall]]s, [[bed]]s and other furniture, though these are less effective for beauty. Jade structures are poor as defenses, as they have lower HP.

=== Weapon ===
 
Jade has a surprisingly high Blunt damage rating. It is better than all materials short of [[uranium]]. However, the only blunt weapon that can be made out of jade is the [[club]], which have no [[quality]]. Jade can be an acceptable material in the early game, as a jade club would be stronger than a normal quality [[steel]] [[mace]], but improved access to both uranium and higher quality maces make them irrelevant by the mid-game.
 
 
 
[[Scenario system#Lost Tribe|Lost Tribe]] scenarios also start with the [[jade knife]], which would otherwise be uncraftable. As an actual weapon, the jade knife is worse than even a wooden club.
