Although it appears all over the world, in New Zealand nephrite can only be found on the West Coast of Te Wai Pounamu (South Island) – the island that carries its name. Considered a \u003ci\u003etaonga\u003c\/i\u003e (treasure) nephrite is highly valued for the luminous green hue that carries in it the colour of the forests and rivers where it lives.
