A stone tablet was unearthed in Shagangdian village at the foot of Dushan Mountain in Anyang, Henan Province. Did you write it? Yujie Temple? According to legend, this is a relic of the Han Dynasty, indicating that it was once an important place for processing and selling dushan jade, and was later destroyed during the Three Kingdoms period. After Wei, Jin, Southern and Northern Dynasties, perhaps because of years of war, dushan jade gradually declined until it was submerged, so people no longer knew that there was dushan jade in the Song Dynasty. At that time, the book Materia Medica said:? Today, Nanyang in Lantian doesn't smell jade, only in the country of Kanzhi? . This situation continued until the late Qing Dynasty, and then small-scale mining and processing appeared in dushan jade. From the perspective of inheriting history and culture, dushan jade is not inferior to Hetian jade.

Similarly, Hetian jade is produced not only in Hotan, but also in Qinghai and Russia. Dushan jade is a real jade with a unique origin. So far, no other producing areas have been found at home and abroad, even in Nanyang, Henan Province. It is just a mining area, Dushan, isolated in Nanyang Basin. This is a veritable Dushan. Fiona Fang is only 3.5 square kilometers, about 200 meters above the ground. So its jade reserves are very limited. If it goes into battle like jade, it is estimated that its resources will be on the verge of exhaustion in a few years.
Fourth, the popularity needs to be improved:
Compared with Emerald and Hetian Jade, the main disadvantage of dushan jade is its low popularity. So far, dushan jade's market share is still very small, so it is hard to find it in most jewelry stores. But this deficiency should be a rare opportunity for investment collectors. There are few people who know and the demand is lower, so the price is not high and there is a very good room for growth.

So far, no counterfeit products have been found in dushan jade, unlike jadeite and Hetian jade, where the market situation is complicated. Therefore, you don't have to worry about meeting dushan jade when investing in it? Gui Li? .
