我国17种战略性矿产保有资源量显著增加，铼增量超两倍

自然资源部发布数据显示，通过对共伴生、低品位及难利用战略性矿产的再评价，我国17种战略性矿产保有资源量显著增加。1 此次调查由自然资源部组织全国27个省区市、100余家单位、近2000名调查人员开展，涉及镓、锗、铟、铬铁矿、镍、钴、锆、铪、铌、钽、钒、稀土、铼、钾盐、金、锰、氦气等17种战略性矿产。1 团队完成了对全国1800余处在产矿山和大中型矿区资源的再评价工作，摸清了相关资源的实际开发利用情况。1

其中，铼全国保有资源量增加超两倍；金和镍分别相当于新增50个和30个大型矿床；镓、铟、钽、钒均超过10个大型矿床的规模。1 在具体勘查项目方面，安徽茶亭铜金矿4个月完成钻探工作量约十万米；新疆拜城发现国内首个古河湖相锆石砂矿，有助于提高锆矿国内自给能力；贵州毕节猪拱塘铅锌矿等勘查项目亦取得重大突破。1

自然资源部矿产资源保护监督司副司长乔春磊、地质勘查管理司副司长马小杰就该调查结果进行了说明。1 此次调查有力支撑了“十四五”找矿突破战略行动目标，并为“十五五”新一轮找矿工作奠定基础。1

The Ministry of Natural Resources announced that the retained reserves of 17 strategic minerals in China have increased substantially following a re-evaluation of co-existing, associated, low-grade, and difficult-to-utilize resources. 1 This assessment involved more than 2,000 surveyors from over 100 institutions across 27 provincial-level regions, who completed the re-evaluation of more than 1,800 active mines and large or medium-sized mining areas nationwide. 1 The minerals assessed include gallium, germanium, indium, chromite, nickel, cobalt, zirconium, hafnium, niobium, tantalum, vanadium, rare earths, rhenium, potassium salts, gold, manganese, and helium gas. 1

Among the specific increases, the national retained reserve of rhenium grew by more than double, while the gains in gold and nickel are equivalent to adding 50 and 30 large-scale deposits, respectively. 1 Additionally, the reserves of gallium, indium, tantalum, and vanadium saw increases comparable to the discovery of more than 10 large-scale deposits for each mineral. 1 These findings provide critical support for achieving the goals of the "14th Five-Year Plan" breakthrough strategy in mineral exploration and lay the groundwork for the next phase of exploration during the "15th Five-Year Plan." 1

Several individual exploration projects achieved major breakthroughs during this period. 1 In Anhui Province, the Chating copper-gold mine completed approximately 100,000 meters of drilling work within just four months. 1 Meanwhile, the Zhuanggongtang lead-zinc mine in Bijie, Guizhou Province, also recorded significant progress. 1 A notable development occurred in Baicheng, Xinjiang, where geologists discovered the country's first ancient lake-river facies zirconium sand deposit, which is expected to enhance China's domestic self-sufficiency in zirconium ore. 1 Officials from the ministry’s Department of Mineral Resources Protection and Supervision and the Department of Geological Exploration Management, including Qiao Chunlei and Ma Xiaojie, provided commentary on these results. 1
