The Reality Behind Granite Quarrying

While granite memorials symbolize permanence, the process of sourcing this stone is deeply connected with the lives of mountain communities, such as those in Fuping County. Here, the local people have witnessed both prosperity and hardship brought by granite quarrying.

An 80-year-old local farmer, Mr. Feng, shared his sorrow about the rapid destruction of the mountains near Zhuangwo. He recalled the once fertile fields and pepper trees lost to quarry waste, blocked rivers, and damaged farmland. The mountain’s scars have caused frequent flash floods, destroying crops and roads, leading many villagers to fear for their safety and livelihoods.

Young residents express frustration over the ecological damage caused by granite mining. One young farmer voiced his desire to leave, blaming the granite grave memorials industry for the environmental disaster impacting their homes.

Economic Impact and Local Struggles

Granite mining began in Fuping County around four to five years ago, drawing investment and speculation. While some have become wealthy by finding valuable veins, many local farmers cannot afford the heavy investments required, such as purchasing excavators and transporting granite. Often, miners must gamble on uncertain veins, sometimes causing irreversible mountain damage.

The competition for these mining rights is fierce, with disputes and pressures from local “backgrounds” and forces. Despite these challenges, local authorities report that mining operations are licensed and regulated, with over 180 quarries in the county, though many are currently inactive due to seasonal factors.

Economically, quarrying stimulates local businesses such as transportation, restaurants, and gas stations, providing jobs for many farmers working in the region.
