Located in the northwest of China, in the middle of Xinjiang, at the northern foot of North Tianshan Mountain and in the south of Junggar Basin. It is bordered by Tage and Cakmak in Turpan to Dahe in the east, Toutunhe and changji city in the west, and Nanshan Mining Area in the south by Carata-Qizil. The protruding part turns to the southeast and connects with Toksun County along Willoch. Xiazegeling Line 3 is adjacent to Heshuo in the south, to Hejing County in the southwest, and to Jimsar County and fukang city along Bogda Ridge in the north.

The northern plain is surrounded by mountains on three sides, which is endless.

The terrain of the jurisdiction decreases from southeast to northwest, which is roughly divided into three steps: mountains, with an altitude of 2500-3000 meters or higher; Intermountain basins and hills, elevation1000-2000m; Plain, below 600 meters above sea level.

Abundant water resources

The surface water quality is good, and the rivers are all inland rivers. Rivers are short and scattered, originating in mountainous areas, mainly supplemented by melted ice and snow. The water level changes greatly with the seasons and disappears in oases or plain reservoirs. Precipitation is the source of water resources supply, and the change of precipitation directly affects the change of water resources. The total amount of water resources in 20 12 years is 996.9 million cubic meters, including 9 1.98 billion cubic meters of surface water resources and 0.77/kloc-0.00 billion cubic meters of groundwater resources.

This area is rich in groundwater resources, which can be divided into Dabancheng-Chaiwopu sag according to geological conditions. There are different forms of water resources, such as glacial meltwater, surface runoff and underground runoff. Precipitation is the source of water resources, and the change of precipitation directly affects the change of water resources.
