Xinjiang stone project investment grew rapidly in the first half of 2014
In the first half of 2014, Xinjiang's emerging stone-producing regions such as Heshuo, Handan, Bole, and Fuyun continued to expand their sheet metal processing projects. This initiative significantly accelerated the growth of the local stone industry. According to a report from the Autonomous Region’s Economic and Information Committee on July 29, investments in Xinjiang’s stone projects reached 452 million yuan during the first half of the year—an increase of nearly four times compared to the same period the previous year.
Once all the projects are completed, the added production capacity is expected to reach 9.2 million square meters. Sun Cunwen, deputy director of the Xinjiang Building Materials Management Office, highlighted that with the ongoing optimization of the industry structure, the share of high-value products like profiled materials and stone carvings has been steadily rising. Additionally, technical equipment levels have seen significant improvements, especially in areas like Fuyun.
Sun also pointed out that Xinjiang possesses several favorable conditions for the development of its stone industry. These include rich and diverse natural stone resources, a strategic geographical location that supports both processing and distribution, and the potential to become a key hub for stone trade between mainland China and Central Asia.
Moreover, as mainland China's domestic stone resources begin to deplete, many production and processing companies have started relocating to Xinjiang. Currently, over 300 enterprises based in Xinjiang originate from the mainland, with more than 90% of them coming from there. One particular county alone is estimated to have a resource reserve of 5 billion cubic meters, which could be processed into 150 billion square meters of stone plates. However, national annual consumption remains below 1 billion square meters, meaning the available resources could last for over 150 years at the current rate.
