“世界上什么东西都可以藐视，唯有黄河不能藐视”。黄河是中华民族的母亲河，很久以前，我们的祖先就在黄河流域开垦耕种，建家立园，繁衍生息，是黄河孕育了伟大的中华民族，黄河是中华民族的摇篮。
"Everything in the world can be despised, only the Yellow River can"t be despised.". The Yellow River is the mother river of the Chinese nation. A long time ago, our ancestors cultivated, built homes and gardens in the Yellow River Basin. It was the Yellow River that gave birth to the great Chinese nation. The Yellow River is the cradle of the Chinese nation.
黄河自巴颜喀拉山，阿尼玛卿山，祁连山，西秦岭等古老山脉涌出，容纳百川，奔流而下。她从天际滚滚而来，挟万钧之力，势不可挡，浩浩荡荡，一泻千里，啸经数省，逶迤入海。《全唐诗》里周偾说的好：“背云冲石出深山，浅碧冷冷一带寒。不独有声流出此，会归江海助波澜。”
The Yellow River flows out from the ancient mountains such as Bayan Kala mountain, Animaqing mountain, Qilian Mountain and West Qinling mountain to contain hundreds of rivers. She came from the sky, carrying the power of a thousand Jun, unstoppable, mighty, flowing for thousands of miles, howling through several provinces, winding into the sea. In the poem of the whole Tang Dynasty, Zhou Yu said it well: "back clouds rush out of the deep mountains, shallow blue and cold areas are cold.". It is not only the sound that flows out of here, but also the river and the sea that will help the waves. "
在千万年的岁月里，黄河两岸的群山峻岭，千沟百壑里的大量石头被入黄的河流携带而进入黄河，然后在九曲黄河奔腾咆哮的力度和野性的长年剥蚀，冲刷，洗磨，流送及多种物理化学作用下，造就成大量寓意深刻，引人入胜的图案石和造型石。这些惟妙惟肖的黄河石蕴涵了华夏文明的深厚积淀，集天地之灵气，聚万物之精华，真是天然瑰宝出黄河，造化钟神秀，非黄河莫属，怎能不让人惊诧大自然的神奇造化和无穷魅力。
In tens of thousands of years, the mountains and mountains on both sides of the Yellow River, a large number of stones in thousands of gullies and gullies have been carried into the Yellow River by the river. Then, under the force of the galloping and roaring of the nine Yellow River and the long-term denudation, scouring, grinding, flowing and many kinds of physical and chemical effects, a large number of meaningful and fascinating pattern stones and modeling stones have been created. These wonderful the Yellow River stones contain the deep accumulation of the Chinese civilization, gather the spirit of heaven and earth, and gather t()he essence of all things. It is truly natural treasures that come out of the Yellow River, the bell of divine nature, and those of the Yellow River.
黄河从横空出世的莽莽天际，从浩瀚的大西北，神秘的丝绸之路，河西走廊，漠漠荒原，一路北上南下，奔入东海。她带来了无边无垠的久远和深沉；
带来了空灵迷茫的大漠孤烟和苍茫空旷；
带来了诗情画意般长河落日的朦胧；
带来的磅礴大气的茫茫九派；
带来了秦砖汉瓦的质朴……。而这一切，都在黄河奇石上体现了出来，这种文化绵延数千里，历经数千年。黄河不但孕育了黄皮肤的中华儿女，而且也孕育了千姿百态的黄河奇石，令人叹为观止。
From the vast sky, the vast northwest, the mysterious Silk Road, the Hexi Corridor and the desert wasteland, the Yellow River runs all the way up and down from the north to the South and into the East China Sea. She has brought boundless remoteness and profundity, empty and confused desert smoke and boundless emptiness, poetic and picturesque misty sunset, boundless and magnificent nine schools, simplicity of Qin brick, Han tile, etc. All of these are reflected in the stone of the Yellow River. This kind of culture stretches for thousands of miles and thousands of years. The Yellow River not only gave birth to the yellow skin of the Chinese people, but also gave birth to a variety of strange stones of the Yellow River.
从广义上来讲，黄河两岸入黄河流所携石头形成的奇石统称黄河奇石，简称黄河石。由于沿黄各地的地质情况各不相同，故所形成的黄河奇石千姿百态，形态各异。习惯上认为：流经青海段的称河源石，流经甘肃，宁夏段的称兰州石，流经内蒙段的称清水石，流经河南段的称河洛石(也叫洛阳黄河石)，再往东由于土质地理，故基本上不产奇石。在以上各段所产的奇石中，尤以兰州段和洛阳段的比较优秀。兰州段黄河接纳了洮河，大夏河，煌水和大通河等支流；
洛阳段黄河接纳了洛河，伊河，汝河等支流。黄河石成因复杂，有火成岩，有沉积岩，也有一些变质岩；
有石英砂岩，石英粉砂岩，花岗岩，砂砾岩，间有浅变质石英岩和沉积岩，又以铁染石英岩居多。这些石头经过复杂的构造变化，经流水冲打洗浸，终成具有东方人文文化内涵的精美奇石。它们花纹美丽，色彩斑斓，或石质坚硬细腻，古朴典雅；
或玲珑细巧，阿娜多姿。色彩有赤，橙，黄，绿，青，蓝，紫的组合变化，天然生成，妙趣横生，含蓄幽雅，韵味深长，构图奔放，粗犷雄深，淋漓尽致。大者可立于庭堂，小者可置于几案，用任何华美的词语形容赞美黄河石都不为过。
In a broad sense, the stones carried by the two sides of the Yellow River into the Yellow River are called the Yellow river stones, or yellow river stones for short. Due to the different geological conditions along the Yellow River, the formation of the Yellow river rocks vary in various forms. It is commonly believed that: Heyuan stone flows through Qinghai, Gansu and Ningxia, Lanzhou stone, Qingshui stone flows through Inner Mongolia, Heluo stone (also called Luoyang Yellow River Stone) flows through Henan, and there is basically no strange stone in the East due to soil geography. Among the strange stones produced in the above sections, Lanzhou section and Luoyang section are excellent. The Yellow River in Lanzhou section receives the tributaries of Tao River, Daxia River, Huangshui River and Datong River; the Yellow River in Luoyang section receives the tributaries of Luo river, Yi River and Ru River. The genesis of Huanghe stone is complex, including igneous rock, sedimentary rock and some metamorphic rock; there are quartz sandstone, quartz siltstone, granite and glutenite, among which there are light metamorphic quartzite and sedimentary rock, and most of them are iron stained quartzite. After complicated structural changes and washing by flowing water, these stones eventually become exquisite and unique stones with oriental cultural connotation. They have beautiful patterns, colorful colors, or hard and delicate stone, simple and elegant, or exquisite and delicate, Ana colorful. The colors are red, orange, yellow, green, green, blue and purple. They are naturally generated, interesting, subtle, elegant, profound, unrestrained in composition, rough and vigorous, incisively and vividly. The big one can stand in the court, the small one can be placed in several cases. It"s impossible to praise the Yellow River stone with any gorgeous words.
那些在各种地质及外力作用下形成的千姿百态的造型石，类人象物，天然形成，令人遐想万千；
那些由沉积岩，变质岩和一些火成岩形成的图案石，华美可人，它们的形成多由着色的化学元素或有机质在成岩时或成岩后作用，晕染于不同的岩石中而形成的花纹和图案，无奇不有。此外，沿黄河两岸还产有大量的古生物化石和矿物奇石，如洮河的海绵化石，洛阳的牡丹石也是产于偃师一带的石种，岩性为变斑状辉绿粉岩，酷似牡丹花，岩石基质主要由斜长石，角闪石及云母组成……
The pattern stones formed by sedimentary rocks, metamorphic rocks and some igneous rocks are gorgeous. Their formation is mainly caused by colored chemical elements or organic matter acting on or after diagenesis and haloing in different rocks There are all kinds of cases. In addition, there are a large number of paleontological fossils and mineral rocks along the Yellow River, such as the sponge fossils of Taohe River. The Peony stone of Luoyang is also a kind of stone produced in the area of Yanshi. The lithology is porphyry diabase, similar to peony flower. The rock matrix is mainly composed of plagioclase, hornblende and mica
所谓“袖里乾坤大，石中日月长”，“石小乾坤大，天然灵气多”。奇石赏玩史可追溯到三千多年前的春秋时代。奇石并非无情物，它能把你带进亦真亦幻的奇石王国，带进梦幻般的宇宙天地。宇是空间，宙是时间，在空间和时间的结合体里，人类繁衍生息，建朝立都，探寻人生美的真谛。石头在人类的进化过程中起了决定性的作用。在九朝古都的洛阳，伏羲据黄河石“河图”，“洛书”画成了八卦(这就是后来周易的来源)。黄河见证了中华民族的历史，正如司马光所说“若问古今兴废事，请君只看洛阳城”。世间多少事，都在笑谈中。
The so-called "big universe in the sleeve, long sun and moon in the stone", "small universe in the stone, large natural gas". The history of stone appreciation can be traced back to the spring and Autumn period more than 3000 years ago. Strange stone is not a ruthless thing. It can bring you into the kingdom of strange stone, which is also true and illusory, and into the dreamlike universe. Universe is space, and Zeus is time. In the combination of space and time, human beings multiply and live, establish a dynasty and a capital, and explore the true meaning of the beauty of life. Stone plays a decisive role in human evolution. In Luoyang, the ancient capital of the nine dynasties, Fu Xi drew eight trigrams according to the Yellow River Stone "River map" and "Luoshu" (this is the source of later Zhouyi). The Yellow River has witnessed the history of the Chinese nation. As Sima Guang said, "if you ask about the history of the past and the present, please only look at Luoyang City.". How many things in the world, are in the laughing.
我们可学先人经验，在赏玩黄河石的过程中，陶冶情操，使自己的思想得以升华。
We can learn from our ancestors" experience, cultivate our sentiment and sublimate our thoughts in the process of enjoying the Yellow River stone.
我有幸成为甘肃省，陕西省，洛阳市奇石协会的顾问，写下以上文字，以表心情。
I have the honor to become a consultant of the strange stone association of Luoyang City, Gansu Province, Shaanxi Province, and write down the above words to express my mood.
黄河共长天一色，奇石与大地共存。
The Yellow River is the same as the sky for a long time.
我爱黄河，我爱黄河石！
I love Yellow River, I love yellow river stone!
保护我们的母亲河！
Protect our mother river!
