    January 24, 2007, China Geological Survey, announced a major breakthrough in China’s copper prospecting, new copper resource of 26. 78 million tons, China’s copper resources are expected to ease tensions over-reliance on imports.

    China Geological Survey Bureau, said Zhang Hongtao, deputy director of this latest discovery is located in the Brahmaputra and south-west of Sanjiang two major metallogenic belt, including the Qulong, cloud Nanpu Lang and Yunnan Copper Yangla three. “At present, the three copper mines have been transferred to the follow-up exploration and exploitation, once put into operation, is expected to enable China’s copper mine production increased by nearly 1 / 3. ” It is reported that during the geological survey, located in the Brahmaputra metallogenic belt in Tibet Qulong copper discovery of copper ore resource of 7. 9 million tons; Southwest Sanjiang cloud Nan Pulang copper ore belt in the accumulated volume of detection was 4. 37 million tons of copper resources; Yunnan Copper peripheral Yangla newly discovered porphyry copper ore and the potential for optimism.

    Zhang Hongtao, said the initial planning Qulong copper refined copper production capacity about 10 tons / year; Pulang Copper Mine Planning refined copper production capacity 150,000 tons / year; Yangla copper refined copper production capacity 50,000 tons / year. Experts estimate that China’s current copper mine production capacity is about 60 million tons. The geological survey of the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau west, the Kunlun Mountains in southern Xinjiang region rich iron ore evaluation of access to new discoveries, a conservative estimate the amount of resources to reach 760 million tons. Zhang Hongtao said that if further exploration and discovery of a large or very large rich iron ore, is expected to rewrite the long-term dependence rich iron ore imports of China’s history.
