A method for extracting and separating ginkgolides. The ginkgolides obtained through steps of extraction on a ginkgo leaf, further extraction, column chromatography, crystallization, and crystal mixing comprise 25.0% to 50.0% of bilobalide (C15H18O8), 20.0% to 45.0% of ginkgolide A (C20H24O9), 10.0% to 30.0% of ginkgolide B (C20H24O10), and 5.0% to 15.0% of ginkgolide C (C20H24O11). The total quantity of the bilobalide, the ginkgolide A, the ginkgolide B, and the ginkgolide C is over 95%.
