At present, there are 8840 state-owned mining enterprises, 260,000 collective and individual mining enterprises, nearly 2 million people engaged in mining, and 139 kinds of mineral resources that have been developed and utilized.
China's mineral resources guarantee the degree of national economic construction can be divided into the following four categories: First, rich in resources, adequate reserves, can fully guarantee domestic needs, and can export foreign exchange earnings: coal, tungsten, tin, molybdenum, rare earth, Salt, graphite, fluorspar, magnesite, barite, talc, gypsum, kaolin, diatomite, bentonite, wollastonite, cement limestone, glass siliceous materials, 19 types of stone; Second, proven reserves and It can basically guarantee the needs of the year 2000, but after 2000, the resource situation will be tense: iron, manganese, lead, zinc, nickel, sulfur, phosphorus, copper, asbestos, sepiolite, and attapulgite; There are certain resource potentials, but the proven reserve reserves are insufficient. Currently, there are five types of minerals that have a large gap in available reserves: oil, natural gas, copper, gold and silver. Fourth, there is a shortage of proven reserves, and the resource prospects are uncertain. The minerals include potassium salt, chromium, platinum group, boron, and diamond. Among them, potassium salt is used the most, which has an important impact on agricultural production. If the geological exploration work in the next 10 years cannot be effectively strengthened, the mineral resources cannot be reasonably protected, and most of the mineral resources will become increasingly short-lived. China's industrial development will face the situation of “no rice potâ€.
