The indication brand plays an important role in increasing farmers' income, promoting industrial upgrading, and regional coordinated development. Due to the lack of reliable traceability system, the economic, cultural and the other values of the indication brand of turquoise from cannot be effectively utilized. Moreover, the traditional traceability system has the disadvantages of difficult data collection, insecure data storage, and easy tampering. Therefore, based on the characteristics of blockchain decentralization and data tamper-proof, to establish Turquoise from Zhushan indication product management system, and bring the important nodes in the supply chain into the system for management, the tracing system of turquoise from indication is constructed. It can realize the entire supply chain record of turquoise from from the mining area to sales and enhance the information security and transparency. Regulatory authorities, mining companies, turquoise processing enterprises, consumers and other user groups can obtain the required information from the system.
