Why do many people like to travel to Xinjiang to pick up stones? What famous places to pick up stones are recommended?

Southern Xinjiang, the southern foot of Tianshan Mountain, is mainly rich in Hetian jade and black mountain agate. There is a kind of "red topaz" hidden in the depths of Ruoqiang and Qiemo Gobi, and its appearance is no different from that of ruby. Hetian jade is just a kind of jade, which is produced not only in Hetian area of Xinjiang, but also in Shaanxi, Gansu, Qinghai, Xinjiang and other places. Because the main producing area is located in the middle of Kunlun Mountain and Hotan area, it is called "Hotan Jade". In the past two decades, due to over-exploitation, Hetian jade with better quality has become less and less in Hotan area and even the whole southern Xinjiang area.

Hetian jade is divided into Hetian jade, jet, jasper, clay and other varieties, of which "sugar skin" Hetian jade clay is the most precious. Hotan also produces a kind of black mountain agate, which is covered with leaves and shiny, and is also loved by many collectors. The quarrying treasures in southern Xinjiang mainly include Hotan County, Mo Yuxian County and Pishan County in Hotan area, Shufu County in Kashgar area, Ruoqiang County and Qiemo County in Korla area.

Northern Xinjiang, the northern foot of Tianshan Mountain, has no jade, but it is famous as a kind of "golden jade" and "gobi jade" in recent twenty years. The flint and opal in Hami, the jade and gem light in Wuerhe, the aquamarine, garnet and gem light in Altay, the coral stone and Du Ruohong in Beitun, the bracelet stone in Beitun, the horse and stone in Manas, and gobi jade are all used as "stones".

Dongge's main activities are in Wuerhe, 184 regiment, Altay Duer, 635, and Shituoluogai, and the stones involved are mainly jade, gem light, aquamarine, nail jade, coral stone, etc ... With more and more people picking up stones, the harvest is pitiful every time. But the freedom to step on the accelerator is far better than picking up the stone itself.

It is believed that Xinjiang has a vast territory and complex landforms, and is rich in all kinds of jade, agate and strange stones, so Xinjiang is a paradise for stone picking.
