2. Lack of high-grade raw materials. At present, the domestic market demand is huge, and Myanmar's mining resources have also dried up. The middle and high-grade jadeites in Hong Kong and other places are gradually developing to the mainland to cope with the hot market scene in the mainland; At present, the market is also divided into two distinct levels, that is, the price of high-quality jadeite is getting more and more expensive, and the price has also risen sharply, but on the contrary, low-grade jadeite is getting cheaper and cheaper, and some are just like free jade. The reason is the increase of mining intensity, the surplus of low-grade raw materials and the huge quantity, which leads to oversupply in the market. Moreover, at present, most of the high-grade jadeites in the domestic market are in stock from Myanmar, and with the increasing demand in the inland market of China, they are slowly flowing into the China market.
There is no substitute for jadeite. The technology of artificial synthesis of jadeite has not been achieved, and the difference between artificial products and natural products is too great; At the same time, jade carving and high-quality jade carving are all hand-carved, so each piece should be designed according to the material and color of raw materials, and it can't be cut and polished mechanically like grinding diamonds. Therefore, jadeite has a very strong value preservation.
