In order to promote the green transformation and development of mining industry in Hunan Province and accelerate the construction of green mines, the Department of natural resources of Hunan Province recently issued the three-year action plan for green mine construction in Hunan Province (2020-2022) (hereinafter referred to as the "plan"), which made it clear that by the end of 2022, all the mines produced in Hunan Province would meet the green mine standards of Hunan Province, and a number of provincial demonstration mines would be selected as national green mines recommend, A new pattern of green development of mines with environmental friendliness, high efficiency and economy, scientific management and harmonious mining areas has been basically formed.
The "Plan" pointed out that it is necessary to adhere to the basic principles of "ecological priority, green development, problem-oriented, classified policies, government-led, and mine construction. Combined with the current situation of mine production, scientifically determine the annual list of green mine construction, and promote the construction of green mines in a planned and step-by-step manner. The Programme sets out five main tasks:
One is the investigation. To find out the current situation of the mine. For legal mining rights and various mining rights that continue to be retained after rectification and rectification, the county and urban natural resources bureau shall organize a survey of the current situation of all mines within its jurisdiction one by one. All production mines in the province should be included in the scope of green mine construction; Due to planning or resources, mines closed before the end of 2022 will not be included in the scope of green mine construction; For mines that have been shut down for a long time and resumed production after the end of 2022, green mines shall be built according to the requirements of newly established mines.
The second is to develop programmes. The natural resources bureaus of all counties, cities and districts shall formulate a three-year action plan for the construction of green mines based on the survey results, implement the progress of the construction of green mines with mining rights, and clarify the list of green mines that meet the standards every year. Each mining enterprise shall, in accordance with the requirements of the green mine process determined by each county and urban area, combine its own green mine construction foundation, benchmark the green mine standards, and prepare the green mine construction plan by itself or entrust a third-party evaluation agency. The construction plan should be used as the basis for the acceptance of green mines in mining enterprises.
The third is to promote the development of green mines. Mining enterprises should organize and implement the green mine construction plan in strict accordance with the review and approval, and actively promote the construction of green mines. The competent departments of natural resources of all cities and prefectures shall organize random spot checks every six months according to the proportion of not less than 20% of the green mines to be built in the counties and cities within their jurisdiction, and report the results of the spot checks together with the phased inspection results of the counties and cities to the Department of Natural Resources of Hunan Province. In accordance with the principle of "two random and one open", the department irregularly organizes experts in natural resources, ecological environment, emergency management and other related fields to conduct spot checks on the progress of green mine construction in various cities and prefectures, and carry out the work of information publicity and verification with mining rights owners.
Four is to organize the evaluation of warehousing. After the green mine construction meets the standard, it shall be declared and accepted according to the green mine management measures. The county and urban natural resources bureau shall extract the third-party evaluation institutions from the management database of the third-party evaluation institutions of green mines in Hunan Province to organize and carry out the evaluation work in a timely manner. If the assessment is passed, the county, city and district natural resources bureau shall report to the municipal and state natural resources department, and the municipal and state natural resources department shall review the submitted mine data and report to the Hunan Provincial Natural Resources Department after passing the assessment. The Department of Natural Resources of Hunan Province will review and publicize the reported list, and those without objection will be included in the list of green mines in Hunan Province.
Fifth, establish a long-term mechanism for green mine management. To strengthen the dynamic management of green mines. The Department of Natural Resources of Hunan Province adopts a random sampling method and organizes spot checks on green mines in storage from time to time. Mines whose results do not meet the standards of green mines shall be removed from the catalogue of green mines in Hunan Province and ordered to make rectification within a time limit. Enterprises that fraudulently obtain the title of green mine will be removed from the list of green mines in Hunan Province and notified throughout the province.
The program emphasizes the need to strengthen organizational leadership. All cities, prefectures, counties and districts should attach great importance to the construction of green mines, strengthen the sense of responsibility and urgency for the transformation and development of mining industry, regard the construction of green mines as an important starting point for the transformation and green development of mining industry, and set up a special team with reference to the organizational framework of "Hunan Province's leading group for comprehensively promoting the green development of mining industry" established at the provincial level, Complete various tasks with quality and quantity.

To regulate the behavior of third-party assessment agencies. Assessment agencies should adopt an avoidance system in the preparation of green mine construction plans and third-party assessment. For the third-party evaluation institutions that do not adopt the avoidance system or transfer or outsource the evaluation work undertaken, without the approval of the evaluated mine, provide the documents and materials of the evaluated mine to others without authorization, or use non-public technical secrets to seek personal benefits for the institution or others, and the evaluation standards are not strict when the real situation of the mine cannot be objectively reflected, if one of the situations that cause the evaluation conclusion to be inconsistent with the real situation twice, the Hunan Provincial Department of Natural Resources will be removed from the management database of the third-party evaluation institution of green mines in Hunan Province and publicly exposed, and shall not engage in relevant evaluation in the field of natural resources within three years jobs.
