Burmese jade is actually jadeite. In 1863, Alexis Damour, a French mineralogist (1808-1902), distinguished jadeite from nephrite in the composition of jade. Jadeite comes from the pyroxene family, which are minerals from the inosilicate group. These are common components of igneous and metamorphic rocks. This pyroxene results from the metamorphism of sodium-rich serpentines.

In France, jadeite and nephrite were referred to as jade without distinction before the 19th century. In China, jadeite appeared in the mid-18th century. It came from Burma. It turns out that all ancient jades used in China before this period were nephrite.
