Jade Mine

Jade Mines make their appearence in the Tale of the Dragon expansion, acting as unique Gold Mines, solely available for maps with Chinese terrain sets.

Any Worker unit can mine Jade, although Dwarves are the game's most efficient miners.

Trivia

 * With the Jade's inclusion, Age of Mythology becomes the second game, after Age of Empires III to include multiple gatherable minerals, though Jade acts identically to Gold.
 * The reason Jade appears in Chinese maps is the fact that it is one of the most praised stones in Chinese sculpture.
