Why is it hard to deal with the repeated treatment of the tungsten mineundefineds chaos and mining?
In order to prevent the domestic tungsten combat to dig, protect and rationally develop and shortage of tungsten resources, the ministry of land and resources, the former state economic and trade commission, national development and reform commission and other departments have repeatedly issued documents since 1999, to rectification of tungsten production order in the country, but the mining order and has not been fundamentally improved, tungsten concentrate production continued to exceed bid.Reporter investigation found that investors for profit drive, local governments secretly indulge the regulation of going through the mill, smelting and processing enterprises in the middle and lower reaches of the scale of production to expand excess capacity and other reasons, resulting in tungsten production often rectification repeatedly rebound.
Since 2002, the ministry of land and resources has controlled the total amount of tungsten mined in order to curb indiscriminate mining and protect and rationally exploit scarce tungsten resources.According to data provided by China tungsten industry association, in 2002, 2003 and 2004, the control indexes of tungsten concentrate mining in 115 mines nationwide were 43,74 tons, 43,660 tons and 52,000 tons respectively, that is, the actual output of domestic tungsten concentrate exceeded the control indexes by more than 60% in these three years.In 2005, the control target was 52,000 tons, but the annual output of tungsten concentrate exceeded 70,000 tons.A coordinated tungsten investigation in China has found that the country's major mines are generally producing about 20 percent more tungsten than they should, and the rest of the output is illegally mined by illegal mines and mining sites.
- illegal illegal mining rampant tungsten mining
Tungsten is an important strategic mineral resource, widely used in the national defense industry, aerospace, nuclear energy, oil and other industries.Due to the impact of high tungsten prices last year, illegal mining and indiscriminate mining were rampant in and around some state-owned tungsten mines in jiangxi, hunan, guangdong and other "China tungsten resources corridor" areas.
