Thanks Anita and Ernest.
While it could be well be what you guys said, but, it looks like B.C. jade to me. The colours are real as far as I can tell. I bought this in Vancouver, BC, at one of those monthly antique fairs. I thought it could be an old carving by the natives.
I have attached 2 more pictures. the crack is recent because when I ran my my nail over it, I can discern the separation/crack. Also, there are innumerous scrath marks which might denote old age. while the surface is very smooth, it is quite pitted with many tiny indentations.
Appreciate you have another look at the new photos.
