According to data released by the Ministry of Natural Resources on October 31, in 2024, the Ministry of Natural Resources organized 27 provinces, regions and cities, more than 100 units, and nearly 2,000 investigators to carry out a national re-evaluation of 17 types of strategic minerals such as gallium, germanium, indium, chromite, nickel, cobalt, zirconium, niobium, tantalum, vanadium, rare earth, rhenium, potassium, gold, manganese, and helium. Through a year of work, we have completed a resource re-evaluation of more than 1,800 production mines and large and medium-sized mining areas across the country to ascertain the actual development and utilization of 17 types of strategic mineral co-generation and low-grade resources, as well as the amount of co-generation and low-grade resources that can be used under current technical and economic conditions.
