Jade

There are two distinct minerals commonly known as Jade: Nephrite (a calcium magnesium silicate - Ca2(Mg,Fe)5Si8O22(OH)2) and Jadeite (a sodium aluminum silicate - NaAlSi2O6). Based on the image showing a typically softer, more fibrous appearance, it is likely Nephrite.

Jade

Jadeite or Nephrite (both are commonly referred to as 'jade'). Jadeite: NaAlSi2O6; Nephrite: Ca2(Mg,Fe)5Si8O22(OH)2.

Yellow Jade

Jadeite or Nephrite (NaAlSi2O6 or Ca2(Mg,Fe)5Si8O22(OH)2)

Jade

Jade can refer to two distinct minerals: Nephrite (a variety of the mineral actinolite, Ca2(Mg,Fe)5Si8O22(OH)2) and Jadeite (Na(Al,Fe3+)Si2O6). Based on the image, showing a relatively uniform green color and possibly slight translucence in bead form, it is very likely one of these, but determining which one from a photo is difficult without specific testing.
