Oliver stared at the piece of old mine material for a few seconds, and information quickly flashed through his mind.
As soon as he saw the identification message, he felt relieved. His newfound special ability seemed to be effective even on raw jadeite!
The message read: [This old mine material from Morrowton Pit has formed approximately 92 million years ago. It was excavated on September 18, 2020. The total weight is 90.6 pounds, with the jade core weighing 17 pounds. The core is mixed with impurities and contains numerous cracks. The transparency index is 0.12.]
Oliver then saw a 360-degree high-definition image of the jade core.
[Craftsmanship level: Unprocessed.]
[Value assessment: 200 dollars.]
As Oliver absorbed the information, a wave of disappointment washed over him as he realized that the finest-grade old mine material was valued at a mere 200 dollars. It seemed that those who took the risk of gambling were going to face devastating losses.
What’s more, Oliver’s identify skill even showed him a 360-degree high-definition image of the jade core!
With a mix of astonishment and excitement, Oliver examined the mental image further. In his mind, a complete, shell-less jade core appeared. He could even rotate and view it from any angle.
The shape, size, texture, and every other aspect of this jade core were clearly and vividly displayed.
Oliver could even mentally dissect the jade core from any position and observe its inner composition.
Unfortunately, a large part of the jade core was riddled with cracks, filled with impurities, and, in technical terms, utterly worthless.
Oliver then turned his attention to the second piece of old mine material. It turned out to be worse than the previous one, valued at a mere 180 dollars.
The third piece of the old mine material was slightly better, but still, it was only worth 600 dollars. It was safe to say that the three blocks of finest-quality old mine material were nothing short of disappointments.
There were 14 pieces of raw stone on the display counter, but starting from the fourth piece, they were no longer high-quality old mine material. It was just that their external appearance still seemed somewhat presentable.
At the end of the display counter, there was a pile of stones without any accompanying information. The external appearance of these stones was poor, and they were the kind that Willie purchased in bulk at scrap prices. They were effectively of no value and served as practice materials for novices to sharpen their skills.
Oliver meticulously examined each stone, but raw stones number four to fix were all filled with impurities and deemed worthless.
As Oliver came across the stone number seven, his heart skipped a beat.
The information said: [Rough jade stone from Ossory in Manchernius. Formed 100 million years ago and was excavated on August 27, 2020. The total weight is 35 pounds, with the jade core weighing four pounds. Jade core’s purity is at grade three, and the transparency index is 3.7.]
A 360-degree high-definition image of the jade core was shown next.

continued with a cheerful smile, “This time, I’ve spent a fortune on three top-quality old mine materials from the Morrowton Pit in the official auction of Manchernius. I believe you have all observed them. Additionally, although stones number four to fourteen were not old mine materials, they are still good pieces with decent appearance.
