Our family started mining jade over 40 years and four generations ago. The community of Jade City started in 1985 with Steve, creating a destination where anyone and everyone was welcome. Steve had his daughters working in his store learning the retail and jade mine business but left the tourism segment in 1992 when Cassiar, the asbestos mine and town shut down leaving little local support in the area.In 2014 the family began the creation of an award nominated t.v. show, Jade Fever, on Discovery Canada which is currently airing it's 6th season in spring of 2020.
