{{Info|'''Jade''' is a rare [[materials|material]] with high [[beauty]], but with little other purpose.}}

== Acquisition ==
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 may occasionally be dropped by [[tribal]] [[raider]]s, as part of raid loot.

== Ore ==
[[File:Jade_ore.png|frameless|left|Jade in game]]

'''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.

Unlike other stone types, [[bed]]s made from jade suffer no penalty to [[Rest Effectiveness]]. 

== Analysis ==
Jade is relatively scarce and hard to find. It is best used for beauty.

=== Beauty ===
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.

== Trivia ==
Despite being unavailable for use in any [[Apparel]] in the current version, it has stats for armor and insulation.

== Version history ==
* [[Version/0.17.1546|0.17.1546]] - no longer a small volume material.
* ? - vein size increased from 1-6 -> 2-8 and yield increased from 35 -> 40
