Biarchedi, Mountain summit in Shigar District, Pakistan.
The Biarchedi peak rises to 6,781 meters within the Karakoram range, featuring steep ice walls and numerous technical climbing sections along its slopes.
Early geological surveys of Biarchedi in the 20th century revealed the mountain's formation through tectonic plate movements along the Main Karakoram Thrust.
The mountain stands as a symbol of the Shigar Valley's mineral heritage, where local communities have long engaged in gemstone mining activities.
Climbers require extensive preparation and specific permits to attempt Biarchedi's summit, with base camp established at 4,550 meters above sea level.
The mountain contains rich deposits of aquamarine and topaz within its granitic pegmatites, making it a significant location for mineralogical research.
