First, the two concepts are different.
1, Chinese medical stone producing areas are mainly located in Pingdingshan and Yishou Mountain in our banner, with limited storage. Now it has been proved that there are more than 30 million tons, and all of them are open pits. "Chinese medical stone" is well-known at home and abroad, and Japan calls it "cell detergent"; The United States calls it "solid mineral water"; North Korea is called "mineral spring medicine stone"; Taiwan Province called it "longevity stone"; The common people call it "an edible stone".
2. Medical stone is a natural silicate mineral, which is non-toxic. Medical stone is a compound mineral or medicinal rock that is nontoxic and harmless to organisms and has certain biological activity. The main chemical component of medical stone is inorganic aluminosilicate. It includes SiO2, Al2O3, Fe2O3, FeO, MgO, CaO, K2O, Na2O, TiO2, P2O5, MnO, etc. It also contains all macro elements needed by animals, such as trace elements such as K, Na, Ca, Mg, Cu, Mo and rare earth elements, with about 58 kinds.
Second, the causes are different.
1, Chinese medical stone is a subvolcanic rock, which belongs to "biotite Shi Ying monzoporphyry" and contains more than 20 kinds of trace elements beneficial to human health, such as iron, magnesium, potassium, sodium, calcium, manganese, zinc, phosphorus, silicon and sulfur.
2. Medical stone belongs to volcanic rocks, and its main mineral is volcanic rocks. 50-75.5 million years ago, the lava erupted from the volcano was buried underground, and after the high humidity and heat in the volcanic zone, these lavas were transformed into acidic substances, and finally medical stone was formed under the pressure of crustal changes. It can be inferred that medical stone is produced in volcanic zone.
Third, the two functions are different.
1, Chinese medical stone smells sweet and nontoxic, and is mainly used for treating all carbuncle and hair back. It has a certain curative effect on senile arteriosclerosis, and has the functions of diuresis, stomach strengthening and liver protection. Medical stone can adsorb germs and bacteria on human surface. It can promote the recovery of skin diseases such as dermatitis, itching and dry skin, and at the same time, it can adsorb dirt on skin surface and keratinize skin and cells. It can absorb a variety of toxins excreted from the body and beautify the skin. It is called health medicine stone.
2. Medical stone is widely used because of its strong adsorption and water purification, especially for crops. Medical stone is porous and has strong adsorption capacity, because its main components are silica and alumina, which is easy to understand from this point of view. In the electron microscope photography of the fine powder of Chinese medical stone introduced earlier, it has been confirmed that it is spongy and porous, which is the biggest reason. Because of porosity, the surface is very large, and because feldspar is partially weathered into kaolin, it always maintains strong adsorption and exchange.
