Natural resources

The snow and glaciers of the three major mountain ranges in Xinjiang have formed more than 500 rivers, which are distributed in the basins in the north and south of the Tianshan Mountains. Among them, there are more than 20 larger ones including the Tarim River (the largest inland river in China), Ili River, Irtysh River (flowing into the Arctic Ocean), Manas River, Ulungu River, and Kaidu River.

Xinjiang is the main natural forest area in the arid areas of western China. Forests are widely distributed in mountainous areas and plains, accounting for nearly 1/3 of the total forest area in northwest China. The Tianshan Mountains and the Altai Mountains are covered with lush virgin forests, mostly composed of straight-trunked Siberian larch, snow-mountain spruce, coniferous cypress and other good building materials. The timber storage volume of these mountain coniferous forests accounts for more than 97% of the total timber storage volume in Xinjiang.
