The skill of picking up stones

Quarrying skills in Gobi desert of Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region

Because of the insistence of a jade friend in the bar, I was moved! So write down some experiences and experiences of picking up jade in Gobi for some enthusiasts' reference. I hope that the jade friends who have been to Gobi to find jade in the bar can show their experience and some common sense here, and share their learning together!

Let's get to know the Gobi first! Gobi desert is a desert with hard soil covered with coarse sand and gravel, and there are sand and stones everywhere. The ground is short of water, plants are few, and the temperature difference between day and night is large.

The most frequent sandstorms in a year are from late March to May, and the hottest is that the temperature can reach 40-50 degrees in July-September. These two periods are generally not suitable for going to Gobi, of course, there are some;

What locals like best is to go to the Gobi to collect jade after 10 months, because the temperature on the Gobi is not high at this time. In their words, the Gobi in summer is so hot that people can't control it, even if they are naked, they will roast oil;

10 months later, the weather gradually cooled down and it became cold. People can control the temperature and wear coats to keep warm in cold weather. Moreover, during this time, the field work is busy, and everyone has more leisure time, so they ride motorcycles and drive Beijing jeeps, pickups and off-road vehicles to the Gobi to find jade.

Secondly, it is the most practical, economical, durable, adaptable, interchangeable parts and low cost. It's jeep 2 12. This once popular "warrior" has been gradually eliminated, but it shows superior value in the Gobi and gallops in the vast Gobi. A friend once said: "This car is very practical to go to Gobi, with simple operation, great strength and strong adaptability. The diesel engine is not afraid of high temperature in summer. More importantly, it is convenient to maintain and the price of accessories is low. Unlike the current electric car, there is something wrong with it. Unless you are a professional, you will be dumbfounded. Wait for the trailer! Accessories are also expensive! " Disadvantages: the car is not well sealed, so wait for the dust in this car! I've sat on it several times, and every time I come out, I pat the dust all over my face, eyes and nose. But what I don't enjoy in Gobi is a small matter to me.

The third is to choose a four-wheel drive diesel pickup truck, which is a better choice for pickers, relatively comfortable and has a large load capacity. Disadvantages are low chassis and great wear on Gobi. But overall, it is still a good choice.
