Dear YT,

Please excuse me for doubting you, I only want to learn.

You said you presumed you nice snuff was in Bowenite/Green Serpentine and it had an SG of 2.94.

Can you please explain why you think it is not Nephrite, because it looks right for Nephrite to my uneducated eyes.

Unfortunately I am away in the next hour and wont be back for about a week, so please excuse my lack of response to any reply you may give.

Kind regards,

Paul
