A few days ago, Henan, a major bauxite mining province, said that the shallow bauxite in the province is facing the situation of being exhausted, and Indonesia has raised export tariffs again after restricting the export of bauxite. As bauxite resources become more and more tense in the future, related concepts are expected to receive close attention, so the concept of bauxite is expected to usher in a collective explosion. Henan's shallow bauxite has been fully exploited for less than 15 years. Zhang Xingliao, chief engineer of the Provincial Department of Land and Resources, introduced that since the early 1950s, aluminum was first discovered in Gongxian County in our province at that time. Soil mines, by the end of last year, our province had a total of 813 million tons of bauxite resources and reserves, ranking second in my country in terms of resources, third in bauxite reserves in the country, and alumina production in our province. It has always ranked first in the country, and its output accounts for more than one-third of the country's total output. Long-term strong development has resulted in the exhaustion of shallow bauxite resources in our province. More than 60% of the shallow bauxite mines above 300 meters underground have been mined. In addition, some bauxite mines cannot be mined due to the occupation of railways, highways, and reservoirs. According to the forecast of the Department of Land and Resources, our province has found that the mining period of bauxite resources is less than 15 years. The new mechanism solves the dilemma of exploration and mining. Wang Zhiguang, a professor-level senior engineer of the Provincial Bureau of Nonferrous Metal Geology and Mineral Resources, introduced that after entering the 21st century, the crisis of bauxite reserve resources has become increasingly intensified, and finding more reserve mineral resources has become the top priority of the geological prospecting department. The bauxite in our province is distributed in layers, and most of the areas with coal mines have bauxite-bearing layers. According to the relevant regulations of the state, it is forbidden to repeatedly set up mining rights in the upper and lower layers of the same plane area, and our province also stipulates that bauxite resources can only be allocated to key alumina enterprises. The "exclusivity" of coal mining rights and the "exclusivity" of bauxite resource allocation have made our province's coal-based aluminum exploration into a deadlock. Guo Minmin, deputy director of the Provincial Department of Land and Resources, introduced that after thorough investigation and research, our province decided to innovate the mechanism last year and implement a "package exploration". Aluminium enterprises are mainly involved, and geological exploration units and local financial exploration investment companies are moderately involved, and many parties have invested in the establishment of joint ventures and established a prospecting alliance. Combined exploration and joint mining with half the effort and the method of integrated exploration has achieved a rapid breakthrough in the search for bauxite. Our province has set up 88 prefabricated exploration areas, among which coal and aluminum have become the highlight. A total of 15 prefabricated exploration areas have been set up. For more than a year, a large amount of bauxite resources under coal has been found in the whole-package exploration project: at the end of last year, the amount of bauxite resources found in Xin'an County, Luoyang reached 23.628 million tons; in July this year, good news came from Sanmenxia City. The county found that the amount of aluminum resources under coal reached 152 million tons. At present, there are already seven exploration areas with more than 20 million tons of aluminum under coal, and it is estimated that more than 500 million tons of bauxite resources will be discovered. "Under coal mining, underground water is an important problem." Zhang Xingliao analyzed that if coal and aluminum enterprises use the results of previous work to explore and combine coal and aluminum, it will save time and effort, and get twice the result with half the effort. Once the coal mine stops mining, the groundwater level will quickly recover. In the future, if the bauxite mining is resumed, the mining difficulty and cost will be greatly increased.

On September 3, Wang Shudong, Secretary of the County Party Committee, and Wang Hesheng, Deputy Secretary of the County Party Committee, accompanied by responsible comrades from the County Party Committee Office, Development Zone, Investment Promotion Bureau and other units, went to the Development Zone to investigate the construction progress of some key enterprise projects. Wang Shudong demanded that all departments at all levels should firmly establish a sense of active service and make every effort to help enterprises become bigger and stronger. All enterprises should seize the opportunity, take advantage of the momentum, accelerate expansion, and make new contributions to the better and faster development of Zongyang's economy and society. Jinyu Metal Co., Ltd., located in the county development zone, is a private enterprise that produces hydrophilic aluminum foil. In recent years, this company has used its technological advantages to develop air-conditioning radiators that are matched with well-known air-conditioning manufacturers such as Haier and Midea. With the increasing market demand, in June last year, the company decided to invest 350 million yuan to build a production project with an annual output of 100,000 tons of aluminum sheet, strip and foil. The project was completed in two phases. The first phase of the project with an annual output of 50,000 tons of high-precision aluminum sheet, strip and foil will be completed before the end of December this year. By the end of 2015, the production capacity of 100,000 tons of aluminum rolling and 80,000 tons of hydrophilic aluminum foil will be formed, with an annual output value of 2 billion yuan and tax revenue. More than 50 million yuan. At the project construction site, Wang Shudong pointed out that in recent years, the county party committee and the county government have taken the undertaking of industrial transfer and investment promotion as the starting point, with the industrial park as the carrier, fully implementing various preferential policies, continuously creating an excellent service environment, and vigorously supporting the development of settled enterprises. Growth, and constantly accelerate the process of new industrialization, effectively promoting the county's stable and rapid economic and social development. Under the guidance and promotion of the county party committee and the county government, Jinyu company has carried out "second entrepreneurship" in our county with foresight and great development. The county's industrial structure is optimized and upgraded to promote the transformation and development of the industrial economy. Afterwards, Wang Shudong and his entourage came to Wanjiang Casting Industry, Yuteng Vacuum Electric Co., Ltd. and other enterprises, and listened to the introduction of the project construction progress by the person in charge of the enterprise in detail, and went deep into the production workshop to understand the company's product research and development, production and operation, and on-site office coordination. Solve the difficulties and problems encountered in the development of related enterprises. Wang Shudong urged the leaders of the park and enterprises to seize the current favorable situation, take advantage of the situation, speed up the construction of new projects, and make the advantageous industries bigger and stronger. Wang Shudong pointed out that enterprises are the main body of economic development. In recent years, a number of key enterprises have settled and developed in our county, and they have played an important role in optimizing the industrial structure, upgrading the industrial level, and establishing the external image of Zongyang, which strongly supports the sustainable and healthy development of the county's economy. All departments at all levels should further enhance their understanding of the importance of serving enterprises from the perspective of overall development, carefully study policies based on their respective functions, carry out work creatively, and make every effort to help enterprises become bigger and stronger. He emphasized that enterprises should strengthen on-site management and scheduling, rationally allocate construction forces, effectively speed up project construction, formulate enterprise development plans, and make every effort to accelerate the pace of advancement. On the basis of further reducing production costs and improving labor efficiency, actively seize the market and accelerate the scale Expansion will make due contributions to improving the development level of emerging industries in the county.

The domestic aluminum profile enterprise Zhongwang Group has officially entered the electrolytic aluminum industry recently, striving to achieve self-sufficiency in primary aluminum as soon as possible. The electrolytic aluminum project of Zhongwang Group will be constructed in two phases, the first and second phases are 400,000 tons each, and the first phase of 400,000 tons is scheduled to be put into operation in October next year. As the electricity price with the largest cost of electrolytic aluminum, Zhongwang Group has completed negotiations with the power grid. The project is located in Yingkou, Liaoning Province. Yingkou is an important port in the north, which will facilitate the transportation of alumina and the export of electrolytic aluminum in the future. It is reported that the project is currently in the civil construction stage.
