Jade Fever' in northern B.C NOT JUST GOLD.

"It really does go from $20 a kilo to $2,000 a kilo. Once it gets to China
it can go to $3,000 an ounce. It really is demand."
lesser-known resource in B.C.'s economy is the star of a new Discovery Channel TV series, Jade Fever, which follows the Bunces — a family of miners in Jade City, B.C.

"It's a gorgeous green, natural stone — there's nothing more natural than that," matriarch Claudia Bunce told The Early Edition's Rick Cluff.

"It brings us money, it creates an industry in our community, so what's not to love?"

Bunce and her family live in Jade City, B.C. — a "stop on the road" along Highway 37 in northern B.C. founded by Bunce's father. As the name indicates, the economy is centred around jade.

"Everybody says it's really not a city, but it's a city! There's 35 of us and we sell Jade. We all live there and love it," she said.

"It's natural. It's rural. It has a massive amount of jade there. We have probably about 500 tonnes of jade sitting around."
