It has been a popular gem since ancient times in the East (China) and Central/South America (Inca civilization), and was prized even more highly than gold. In ancient times, it was called "gyoku." While "hisu" originally referred to the kingfisher bird in China, over time it came to also refer to the gemstone. All locations where jade is produced are in orogenic belts, and jade is primarily found within serpentinite. Serpentinite is formed when olivine, abundant in the Earth's mantle, alters upon contact with water, a result of regional metamorphism occurring near plate boundaries.
