Firstly, with abundant resources and diverse varieties, stone resources are widely available in various regions. Compared with the developed stone industry, the advantages of stone resources are more obvious. The large consumption of stone has become an important factor driving the continuous development of the stone industry. The success of Beijing's bid for the Olympics and Shanghai's bid for the World Expo, as well as the promotion of domestic demand through the accumulation of funds and the commencement of various new and renovation projects, will provide more favorable conditions for the development of the stone industry and its entry into the market.

From the market perspective, the growth rate of Wulian Red Stone is higher than the economic growth rate, and it is expected that the annual growth rate of stone will still reach 6% in the next 20 years. Therefore, there is reason to be optimistic about stone exports. The advantages of exporting three-dimensional stone characters are that there are many precious varieties, wide distribution, low production costs, and good quality. However, there is still a common situation where the export products have small specifications and cannot meet the requirements of foreign merchants for large and large pieces, resulting in lower prices in the market. In addition, the exported products cannot keep up with the development trend in terms of color and pattern. At the same time, due to the influence of transportation, climate, and mining conditions (water, electricity, machinery, talent, technology) in remote mountainous areas, large-scale production and exports are restricted.
