natural resources

Gongquan town is known as the "hometown of Gongshi" because of its fine, smooth texture, black and bright light. In hot summer, it is cold and comfortable to touch it with hands. The formation of Davidia involucrata has a history of 200 million years. It is buried in the soil. Small Davidia involucrata can be found on the surface of the soil, while large Davidia involucrata is not easy to find. Davidia involucrate is rich in asphaltene, carbonaceous limestone and marl, and some Davidia involucrate contains detritus of paleontological fossils. The hardness of Davidia involucrate stone ranges from 3.5 to 4. Because Davidia involucrate stone is fine in quality, and has good polishing and inking properties, people use the techniques of relief and hollowing out to make various finished products. The stone is often rubbed with flannelette, and the more it is rubbed, the brighter it is.
