翡翠原石也叫翡翠毛料，指的是在礦產開採出來的沒有經過任何處理的翡翠料子。翡翠賭石指的是翡翠原石在開採出來時被一層風化皮包裹著，讓人無法知道翡翠內部品質的好壞，所以要用特別的方法才能知道。很多人想要通過翡翠賭石來一夜致富，這樣的情況在新聞上也不是沒有的，但是網上新聞卻沒有告訴你，有多少人是因為賭石而傾家蕩產的！
The original jadeite stone is also called jadeite wool, which refers to the jadeite material that is mined in the mineral industry without any treatment. Jadeite gambling stone refers to that the original jadeite stone is wrapped in a layer of weathered leather when it is mined, which makes it impossible to know the internal quality of jadeite, so special methods should be used to know. Many people want to get rich overnight by gambling on jadeite stones, which is not absent in the news, but the online news doesn't tell you how many people lost their money because of gambling stones!
翡翠原石的皮殼一般有砂皮、粗皮和細皮三大類，皮殼肯定是越細的最好，皮殼顆粒細就有「水」，有綠的可能性會很高。除了看皮殼的經驗之外，其他的還需要結合翡翠場口的特徵來判斷翡翠原石，這樣裡面的大概結構就知道了。翡翠原石的場區：龍肯、帕敢、達木坎、後江、灰卡、雷打、南寄、香洞，每個場區細分的話還有很多個場口。
There are generally three types of jadeite raw stone skin: sand skin, coarse skin and fine skin. The finer the skin is, the better it will be. There will be "water" if the skin is fine, and there will be a high possibility of green. In addition to the experience of looking at the crust, other things need to be combined with the characteristics of the jadeite field mouth to judge the jadeite original stone, so that the approximate structure inside is known. The field area of jadeite raw stone: longken, pagan, damukan, Houjiang, huika, Leida, Nanji and Xiangdong. If each field area is subdivided, there are many more.
翡翠名稱來源有幾種說法，一說來自鳥名，這種鳥羽毛非常鮮艷，雄性的羽毛呈紅色，名翡鳥（又名赤羽鳥），雌性羽毛呈綠色，名翠鳥(又名綠羽鳥)，合稱翡翠，所以，行業內有翡為公，翠為母說法。明朝時，緬甸玉傳入中國後，就冠以「翡翠」之名。另一說古代「翠」專指新疆和田出產的綠玉，翡翠傳入中國後，為了與和田綠玉區分，稱其為「非翠」，後漸演變為「翡翠」。
There are several sources of jadeite name. One is the name of the bird. The bird's feathers are very bright. The male's feathers are red. The male's feathers are jadeite (also known as red feather bird). The female's feathers are green. The jadeite (also known as green feather bird) is collectively called jadeite. Therefore, there is a saying that the jadeite is the male and the jade is the female in the industry. In the Ming Dynasty, when Burmese jade was introduced into China, it was named "jadeite". Another said that the ancient "jade" specifically refers to the green jade produced in Hetian, Xinjiang. After the introduction of jadeite into China, in order to distinguish it from Hetian green jade, it was called "non jadeite" and gradually evolved into "jadeite".
在中國古代，翡翠是一種生活在南方的鳥，毛色十分美麗，通常有藍、綠、紅、棕等顏色。一般這種鳥雄性的為紅色，謂之「翡」，雌性的為綠色，謂之「翠」。東漢許慎編著的中國最早的字典《說文解字》中就有了這個詞：「翡，赤羽雀也；翠，青羽雀也」，指嶺南地區一種鳥類。唐代著名詩人陳子昂在《感遇》一詩中寫道：「翡翠巢南海，雌雄珠樹林……旖旎光首飾，葳蕤爛錦衾。」
In ancient China, emerald is a kind of bird living in the south. Its color is very beautiful, usually blue, green, red, brown and other colors. Generally, the male of this bird is red, which is called "jadeite". The female is green, which is called "Emerald". In Shuowen Jiezi, the earliest Dictionary of China compiled by Xu Shen in the Eastern Han Dynasty, the word "jadeite, red feathered sparrow; emerald, green feathered sparrow" refers to a bird in the south of the five ridges. Chen Ziang, a famous poet of the Tang Dynasty, wrote in his poem "feelings" that "Emerald nests in the South China Sea, male and female pearl trees Beautiful jewelry, luxuriant brocade quilt. "
翡翠之名由來已久，北宋歐陽修《歸田錄》卷二載：「余（歐陽修）家有一玉罌，形制甚古而精巧，始得之梅聖俞，以為碧玉。在潁州時，嘗以示僚屬。坐有兵馬鈐轄鄧保吉者，真宗朝老內臣也，識之，曰：此寶器也，謂之翡翠。雲禁中寶物皆藏宜聖庫，庫中有翡翠盞一隻，所以識也。」由此可見以「翡翠」指綠色玉石由來已久，且至遲在北宋時，已被視為珍寶。或許古之「翡翠」與今之「翡翠」系同名異質，故紀曉嵐稱在其幼時，時人「不以玉視之」。（註：歐陽修《歸田錄》載於《歐陽文忠公全集》，為第126、127卷）
The name of jadeite has a long history. According to Volume 2 of the record of returning to the fields of Ouyang Xiu in the Northern Song Dynasty, "Yu (Ouyang Xiu) has a jade poppy in his family, which is very ancient and exquisite in shape. He first got the name of Mei Shengyu, which is Jasper. When I was in Yingzhou, I tried to show my colleagues. There is a military horse ring to govern Deng Baoji. The old officials of the real clan also know it. They say: this treasure is also called emerald. All the treasures in the cloud ban should be stored in the holy Treasury. There is an emerald lamp in the Treasury, so you can know it. " It can be seen that "Emerald" refers to green jade for a long time, and at the latest in the Northern Song Dynasty, it has been regarded as a treasure. Perhaps the ancient "jadeite" and the present "jadeite" are of different names, so Ji Xiaolan said that when he was young, people "did not regard it as jade". (Note: Ouyang Xiu's records of returning to the field is contained in Ouyang Wenzhong Gong Quan Ji, volume 126 and 127)
翡翠屬輝石類，單斜晶系、兩組完全解理。主要組成物為矽酸鋁鈉NaAl9(Si2O6)，寶石礦中含有超過50%以上的矽酸鋁鈉才被視為翡翠)，出產於低溫高壓下生成的變質岩層中。往往伴生在藍閃石、白雲母、硬柱石（二水鈣長石）、霰石和石英。莫氏硬度在6.5—7之間，比重在3.25—3.35之間，熔點介於900—1000°C之間。
Jadeite belongs to pyroxene, monoclinic system, two groups of complete cleavage. The main component is naal9 (si2o6), more than 50% of which is considered to be jadeite, which is produced in metamorphic rocks under low temperature and high pressure. They are usually associated with the blue amphibole, muscovite, andalusite (feldspar dihydrate), aragonite and quartz. Mohs hardness is between 6.5-7, specific gravity is between 3.25-3.35, and melting point is between 900-1000 ° C.
早期翡翠並不名貴，身價也不高，不為世人所重視，紀曉嵐（1724--1805）在《閱微草堂筆記》中寫道：「蓋物之輕重，各以其時之時尚無定灘也，記余幼時，人參、珊瑚、青金石，價皆不貴，今則日.......雲南翡翠玉，當時不以玉視之，不過如藍田乾黃，強名以玉耳，今則為珍玩，價遠出真玉上矣」。據《石雅》得知本世紀初大約45公斤重的翡翠石子值十一英鎊。翡翠石子中不乏精華，當時價格也很貴，但與21世紀初一公斤特級翡翠七八十萬美金相比，簡直是小巫見大巫。（按：據歐陽修《歸田錄》之記載，至遲在北宋初年，翡翠已為綠色寶玉之名，為禁中珍寶。紀曉嵐所言或許是另一種翡翠。）
The early jadeite is not valuable, valuable and not valued by the world. Ji Xiaolan (1724-1805) wrote in the notes of Yuewei thatched cottage: "the weight of the cover is determined by the fashion at that time. When I was young, the prices of ginseng, coral and Lapis Lazuli are not expensive. Today, I am... Yunnan jadeite, which was not regarded as jade at that time, but like the dry yellow of Lantian, the strong name is jade ear Now it's a treasure, and the price is far higher than the real jade. According to Shiya, at the beginning of this century, about 45 kilograms of jadeite stone is worth 11 pounds. There is no lack of essence in the jadeite stone. The price was very expensive at that time, but compared with the first grade jade of $7.8 million in the first half of twenty-first Century, it was almost impossible. (Note: according to Ouyang Xiu's records of returning to the field, jadeite has become the name of green jade in the early years of the Northern Song Dynasty at the latest, which is a forbidden treasure. What Ji Xiaolan said may be another kind of jadeite.)
翡翠開採、運輸、加工、銷售歷來是雲南人所為。在緬甸古都阿摩羅補羅城的一座中國式古廟裡，碑文上刻有5000個中國翡翠商名字，這在玉緣和珠寶也有介紹。明中葉高官太監駐守保山騰衝專門採購珠寶。當時從永昌騰越至緬甸密支那一線已有「玉石路」、「寶井路」之稱。騰衝至緬甸的商道最興盛時每天有2萬多匹騾馬穿行其間，騰衝的珠寶交易幾乎占了世界玉石交易的9成。
The exploitation, transportation, processing and sales of jadeite have always been done by Yunnan people. In an ancient Chinese Temple in Buro City, the ancient capital of Myanmar, there are 5000 Chinese jadeite merchants' names engraved on the inscriptions, which are also introduced in jade margin and jewelry. In the middle of Ming Dynasty, the high-ranking eunuch stationed in Baoshan Tengchong to purchase jewelry. At that time, there were "Jade Road" and "treasure well road" from Yongchang Tchang to Burma Myitkyina line. When the business road from Tengchong to Myanmar flourished, more than 20000 mules and horses passed through it every day. The jewelry trade in Tengchong accounted for nearly 90% of the world's jade trade.
此翡翠原石外皮為黃鹽砂皮，皮殼較厚，為滿綠色，燈光打出來後是非常通透，品相端正，皮殼細膩，開窗處可見高冰滿綠。色澤和玉質比較均勻，尤其像這麼大體積的翡翠原石，是十分難得。且鮮艷而較濃，屬於高綠色中稀少的帝王綠，而且又是老坑玻璃種，是近年來難得一見的翡翠色料，估計可出百萬級帝王綠翡翠戒面或掛件，非常珍貴。極具收藏價值！
The outer skin of the original jadeite stone is yellow salt sand skin, with thick skin and full of green color. After the light is put out, it is very transparent, with good appearance, delicate skin and green high ice at the window. The color and quality of jade are relatively uniform, especially for such a large volume of jadeite raw stone, which is very rare. It is a rare emerald color material in recent years. It is estimated that it can produce a million level emerald ring face or pendant, which is very precious. Great collection value!
