What are the two main types of stones in Dieshan Mountain?

Rockfill is mainly composed of Huangshi in Wu Kang, Zhejiang, with Taihu Stone as the top.

I. Detailed introduction of Huangshi, Wu Kang, Zhejiang.

Reasons for formation: Huangshi was formed by geological changes in hills and mountains in the eastern suburb of Wu Kang Town (formerly Wu Kang County) in Deqing County, Huzhou. This area has experienced crustal movement in history and formed various minerals including wukangshi.

The main components of wukangshi are silicate and iron oxide, which have undergone physical and chemical changes under the influence of high temperature and high pressure, forming a unique yellow appearance.

Physical characteristics: The surface of Huangshi usually presents a unique yellow or yellowish brown color, with fine texture and many tiny pores. These pores make Huangshi swell easily after absorbing water, forming a sponge-like structure.

Origin: The origin of Huangshi is the hilly area in the eastern suburb of Wu Kang Town (formerly Wu Kang County), Deqing County, Huzhou City, Zhejiang Province.

Uses: Huangshi is widely used for landscaping and architectural decoration because of its unique color and texture. In landscaping, Yellowstone is often used to make ornaments such as rockeries and stone pagodas, adding artistic flavor to gardens. In terms of architectural decoration, you can use Yellowstone to make fireplaces and thresholds, adding a unique style to the building.

Cultural value: In addition to practical value, Huangshi has rich cultural connotations. In China's traditional culture, yellow symbolizes land and harvest, so Huangshi is also regarded as an auspicious thing. At the same time, Yellowstone is also regarded as a spiritual gem, which is often used to make utensils and handicrafts.

Second, the detailed introduction of Taihu Stone.

Taihu stone, also known as cave stone and rockery, is gradually formed after long-term erosion of limestone. It can be divided into water stone and dry stone. Water stone is slowly formed by water waves and long-term erosion in rivers and lakes, while dry stone is formed by limestone in geological period under long-term erosion of acidic red soil.

Taihu stone has a strange shape, overlapping postures and transparent texture, and its color is mostly white stone, while green black stone and yellow stone are rare. Especially the yellow ones are rare, especially suitable for decorating parks, lawns, campuses and courtyards. It has high ornamental value. Taihu stone is one of the typical traditional stone products, which wins by its shape. Exquisite carving, mountainous, suitable for garden stone.

Carbonate rocks are widely distributed in China. Under appropriate structural, rock and hydrogeological conditions, Taihu rocks similar to those in Jiangsu can be found and developed. In addition to Guangdong and Guangxi, Fangshan in Beijing, Jingshan in Qinling and Wujing Town in Linqu County, there are also many "Taihu Stone" on the market that are not from the vicinity of Taihu Lake.

The reason for overlapping mountains

The reason why mountains overlap is mainly related to the natural form of the earth's surface and the pursuit of natural beauty by human beings.

First of all, the natural forms of the earth's surface are complex and diverse, including mountains, hills, plains, rivers and so on. Dieshan is the embodiment of the natural form of the surface. It simulates the shape and structure of natural mountain through the accumulation and shaping of stones, soil and other materials.

Secondly, the pursuit of natural beauty is also one of the reasons for overlapping mountains. Since ancient times, natural landscapes such as mountains and rivers have always been regarded as a symbol of beauty and a source of inspiration. Through overlapping mountains, people reproduce the shape and beauty of natural mountains in artificial environments such as courtyards and gardens, thus realizing the harmony between man and nature and aesthetic enjoyment.

In addition, overlapping mountains also have cultural symbolic significance. In the traditional culture of China, the mountain is a symbol with an important position, which is endowed with many meanings and symbolic meanings. People express their awe of nature, inheritance of culture and yearning for a better life through overlapping mountains.

In a word, the reason why mountains overlap is not only related to the natural form of the earth's surface, but also related to human pursuit of natural beauty and cultural symbolic significance. It is an aesthetic expression and cultural inheritance way of human beings to the natural landscape.
