Green channel opened, two large new iron ore mining license!

A few days ago, according to relevant media reports, in order to fully ensure the safety of mineral resources, the Liaoning Provincial Department of Natural Resources, through coordinating the people's governments of various cities and counties and relevant departments, adopted the mechanism of tolerance acceptance, parallel review, and linkage handling, and provided Xianshan within the shortest time limit., Chentaigou two super-large new iron mines issued mining licenses.

A few days ago, according to relevant media reports, in order to ensure the safety of mineral resources, the Liaoning Provincial Department of Natural Resources, through coordinating the people's governments of various cities and counties and relevant departments, adopted the mechanism of tolerance acceptance, parallel review, and joint handling.Mining licenses were issued for two extra-large new iron mines, Xianshan and Chentaigou, within the shortest time limit..

It is reported that after the completion of production, the two iron ore production scale will reach41 million tons/year, whether it is to improve the self-sufficiency rate of iron ore in Liaoning Province, or to ensure the security of the national iron ore supply chain, is of great significance.

 

Xianshan Iron Mine is located in the southwest of Qianshan District, Anshan7 kilometers, with proven reserves of 1.3 billion tons, is currently the largest undeveloped resource reserves and the best endowment of single iron mine in China. At the end of December 2021, the Xianshan iron ore mining and dressing joint project entered the physical promotion stage. It is reported that the total investment of the project will exceed 20 billion yuan, with an annual design of 30 million tons of iron ore and 10.2284 million tons of iron concentrate.
Xianshan Iron Mine belongs to Anshan Iron and Steel Group Mining Company.In 1999, Anshan City issued the "Opinions on Strengthening the Protection of the Natural Landscape of Xianshan", and successively closed a number of silica and iron mines. In August 2004, all the iron ore mining rights of the remaining four enterprises in Xianshan were transferred to Anshan Iron and Steel Group Mining Company.

 

Chentaigou Iron Mine is located in the north east of Anshan City.11km, the administrative area is divided into Qianshan District of Anshan City. It has a super-large iron ore deposit with a reserve of 1.274 billion tons, with a total iron ore grade of 34.40. It is designed to produce 11 million tons of iron ore annually. It is one of the super-large black underground deep mines in China.
Chentaigou Iron Mine is a major investment project in Minmetals Mining.In 2012, Minmetals Group paid all the mining rights consideration of 0.68 billion yuan and obtained the prospecting certificate. On October 16, 2017, the commencement ceremony of the Chentai Gou iron ore exploration project was held, marking the formal construction stage of the Chentai Gou iron ore project.

 

According to relevant media reports, since the Liaoning Provincial Department of Natural Resources fully launched the "green channel" to guarantee the development and approval of strategic mineral resources such as iron ore in 2019, it has successively For Qidashan, Donganshan, Dagushan, Gongchangling open-pit mine and underground mine and other large and super-large iron ore mines, the continuation of mining rights procedures have been handled. , and Old mines such as Nanfen, Waitoushan and Jiajiabao have gone through the formalities of expanding their reserves and increasing production. It can be said that in terms of "improving the guarantee capacity of domestic iron ore resources", as the "big brother" of my country's iron ore, Liaoning has made great efforts!
Earlier this year, the China Steel Association submitted a report on the implementation of"Cornerstone Plan" to enhance China's iron resource security capacity proposal, proposed to use 2-3 "five-year plan" time, change China's iron resources source composition, fundamentally solve the iron and steel industry chain resources short board problem. Among them, the development of domestic iron ore resources is an important part of the troika designed by the "Cornerstone Plan.
According to the National Bureau of Statistics,In July 2022, China's iron ore production was 80.227 million tons, a decrease of 18.7 percent month-on-month and 3.5 percent year-on-year. Cumulatively, China's cumulative iron ore production reached 572.318 million tons in January-July 2022, down 3.3 percent.

 

In terms of imported mines, according to statistics from the General Administration of Customs of China,In July 2022, China's imports of iron ore and its concentrates were 91.24 million tons, up 3.2 percent year-on-year, and in January-July, China's cumulative imports of iron ore and its concentrates reached 626.82 million tons, down 3.4 percent.

 

By Due to weak demand, the output of imported iron ore and domestic iron ore fell together. With the support of many policies, the output of domestic iron ore has not been effectively released.
But according to the National Bureau of Statistics,From January to July, fixed asset investment in the national mining industry increased by 8.3, of which fixed asset investment in the ferrous metal mining and dressing industry increased by 59.2, ranking first in the mining industry in investment growth, an increase of 49 percentage points over the same period last year.
In the coming period of time, Longxin Mining, Dataigou Iron Mine, Macheng Iron Mine and other super-large mines will be developed in an orderly manner, and after the release of domestic iron ore production, from"Card neck" to "arm", the road to the revival of domestic iron ore quietly opened!

Wait for the flowers to bloom!
