In June last year, at a cost of u影國p to 765 million yuan of 舊高southern xinjiangs largest o朋不pen-pit coal mine, carav計訊an al sensitive built in ba可車icheng county in xinjiang 愛機in the open-pit coal mine, bai慢靜cheng mining area coal reso少年urces reserves of 5 師個billion tons, is the s相錯carcity of high quality main志費 coking coal producti能城on area in our country, to the de朋化velopment of related industri體電es such as steel smeltin分厭g has special use value, but also f鐘問or the southern xinjiang pro和西duction and supply of coal, is of 身業great significance.
Caravan al case sensitive 黑討open-pit coal mine is jus玩作t a microcosm of many min我紙ing projects in xinjiang, xinjiang i靜視s located in the core area業坐 of Eurasia, is contact, one of t路報he main channel of ce務公ntral and eastern Euro離算pe, central Asia in the i樹美dentified 32 central Asia metallog年機enic belt has 16 involved in xinj件見iang, as the national mining strategy 訊相moving westward, is gradual校票ly becoming China in xinjian做開g, and even the worlds 吧民mineral resources base!

I. ten resource bases in xinjiang友山
There are many kinds 家好of minerals and large rese大師rves in xinjiang. 138 k煙爸inds of minerals hav船腦e been discovered, among which 工市9 kinds have the large報計st reserves in China and 32 白風kinds have the largest re事嗎serves in northwest China.
Among them, the reserves厭報 of petroleum and natural gas i服飛n xinjiang rank top three in Chi去睡na. Coal resources ranked s自唱econd in China; Lead and z光路inc resources ranked third in China; Go知身ld resources ranked thi民不rd; Iron ore resources ranke讀分d 10th in China...

Ii. Brief introduction of ten bases
(1) coal base
Coal is one of the most外化 advantageous mineral r服海esources in xinjiang, with the p電畫redicted total resou生務rce of about 2.2 trillion tons, account厭道ing for 40% of the countrys total嗎路, ranking first in the country.物錢 Xinjiang has a complete variety of近玩 coal, low sulfur, low ash, and high 水議calorific value, and the coking 可費coal accounts for about 地坐9% of the total reserves.
(2) lead and zinc ore
The huohuoyun lead-zinc mine is謝做 located in the huohuoyun a司現rea of hetian county他哥, hotan prefecture, xinjiang uy地但gur autonomous region. In 2016, 舊厭the 8th geological tea到女m of xinjiang geological and mi有如neral bureau found this "treasur朋為e" in the kunlun mountains.
According to the latest data, th做問e deposit is the largest lead - zinc 風南deposit discovered in Ch也相ina. Among the previously 那慢published data, the lea我子d grade is 4.58%, the zinc 呢懂grade is 23.92%, and the average l作區ead + zinc grade is 28.51%. It坐年 is characterized by simple and c是錢omplete ore body, gentle and喝路 stable occurrence, shallow burial, la和和rge deposit size and high grade. Econo火現mic development of excellent qualit人爸y, suitable for open 姐國- pit mining.
(3) gold mine
The katabasu gold deposit is loca離很ted in xinyuan county, x離花injiang. The gold mine was first disco購很vered in 2009, with 53 to知有ns of gold resources submitted in the m哥校iddle stage and over 100 tons這放 of gold resources in the f街少uture, making it one of the largest哥文 gold mines in China.
The quality of katabasu gold deposit快長 is better. The average grade of the 姐市53 tons of gold ore submitted is 又會3.51 g/ton, of which the no.4 ore bo銀看dy is 20 tons and the av對鐘erage grade is 5.7 g/ton. The ka行作tabasu gold deposit is rich i東了n gold and copper, with 愛現a potential economic value of 坐多nearly 20 billion yuan.
(4) iron ore
Xinjiang is rich in iron ore resources刀歌, which are widely distribute街公d, diversified, rich i東但n minerals and have g到上reat resource potent體吧ial.
Avulale ore deposit, west tianshan m對吧ountain: this iron polymeta中線llic deposit belongs to Marine vol她山canic type iron ore. The accumulated ex離快ploration amount of iron ore resourc數近es is 1.63 billion tons, and t她是he predicted amount of resources is大樹 more than 2 billion t理這ons.
Kush kurgan, west kunlun: the depos玩吃it belongs to sedimentary metam內冷orphic iron ore deposit, with accumula自業ted reserves of 1.19 billion tons行都 and average grade of iron ore in the w湖化hole region of 32.50%. 腦在Chahekou iron ore deposit is rich校明 in iron ore resourc理錢es of 80 million tons and a月街verage grade of 58.62%. It is 雜和predicted that the iron ore reser微窗ves of this metallogenic bel玩唱t can reach 2-3 billion tons.
(5) manganese ore
In October 2016, the department of lan少姐d and resources of xinjiang aut話就onomous region disclosed that技他 a newly discovered carboniferou這海s stable manganese rich ore rock syst章的em was found in ximuji township, akta熱海w county, kezile sukeerji autonom木習ous prefecture. The quantit窗森y of high-quality manganese ore resour如作ces reached 30 million tons, with an a從綠verage grade of about 35%.
The ore - bearing strata in this or書購e belt are stable, thic他綠k and rich in grade. This achievement 他城has laid a resource foundation for the 機公formation of large m能數anganese resource bases in xinjiang a看上nd even the whole cou中們ntry, and will also impro算腦ve the resource bottleneck of 女文the lack of rich manganese ore in她開 China.
(6) crystalline graphite
In October 2016, the department of 信跳land and resources of xinjia雜錯ng uygur autonomous region anno司木unced the discovery of a lar國媽ge crystalline graphite ore be可刀lt with reserves of more than 100 mill來們ion tons in the junggar bas門東in of northern xinjiang. Surfa吃們ce investigation fou跳看nd that the graphite ore body extends跳我 far, about 20 to 30算森 kilometers long, and the ore body is 作動stable. Preliminary exp從分loration shows that the prospectiv飛好e reserves of crystalline grap章男hite ore belt in eastern junggar re唱從gion are more than 100 million 水這tons, and the average grade of fixe物志d carbon is about 10%.
(7) uranium mining
China is a country with 公什limited uranium resources. Chinas p體湖roven uranium reserv問票es rank 10th in the world, w也快hich cannot meet the long-term n紙好eeds of nuclear power development化計. The deposit scale is mainly smal友報l and medium-sized (accounting for mo資微re than 60% of the total r黃跳eserves). Ore grade is low, usually wit些下h phosphorus, sulfur 事鐘and non-ferrous metals, rare metal 可日minerals and its symbiosis or 子人associated.
Yili basin is one of the most impo通開rtant bases for uran開術ium mining in China. In yi秒冷li area, the 216th brigade 站綠of China nuclear power gro哥土up has achieved the first m好用ajor breakthrough in the exp藍請loration of in-situ l照習eachable sandstone type ura歌裡nium deposit in China, and discovere錢術d and submitted the fi火土rst 10,000-ton in-situ leachable上會 sandstone type uranium 報靜deposit in China, ma少工king yili basin the first e費也xtra-large in-situ leachable s子舞andstone type uranium deposit務街 in China.
In addition to the above minera飛間l resource bases, xinjiang is als下森o the major producer of rare meta對關ls in China, especially beryl雜我lium, lithium, niobium a少外nd tantalum. The super large niobi日離um and tantalum deposi購內t in baicheng county in sout現金hern xinjiang is estimated to hav問雜e reserves of more than 100,000 tons購樹, exceeding the total prove校技n niobium reserves in China. The 銀農total value of the deposit is estimate很呢d to exceed 130 billion yuan.

Regardless of its geograp風務hical location or national strategy, x會一injiang is a "treasure pot" and國為 a resource base for Chin對大a and even the world.地不
