Nowadays 33 bauxite districts have been developed in China, in which important mines under CNNMC are: the Chadian bauxite mine and Zhulingou bauxite mine of the Gongyi bauxite field, the Zhangyaoyuan bauxite mine and Jiagou bauxite mine of the Xin"an bauxite field and the Caoyao bauxite mine and Zhijian bauxite mine of the Shaanxian bauxite field (Henan); the Baijiazhuang mine and Taihushi mine of Yangquan City and the Xihedi and Ke"e-Northern...more
Domestic steel market has turned to stabilize from slump since late February. Currently, demands for steel in the peak season keep augmenting, raw materials prices running at high level, steel social inventory declines clearly and the capital liquidity increase, as a result, steel prices still have momentums to ascend. However, confined by the fast growing capacity and shrinking demands, downturn risk of steel prices still exists.Production Costs...more
China is a steadily rising world power- if it isn"t one already. And nowhere is its presence more palpable than in the electronic markets. Earlier on, electronics made in this country were generally dismissed as cheap and of subpar quality. Today however; the tables have turned and china is fast emerging as a high quality electronics hub to be reckoned with. LED lights manufacturer in China, for example; now produce top end LED lights that could stack up against others manufactured anywhere else. Here"s more.LED lights are a highly durable and eco friendly lighting solutions with one little drawback. It is expensive. However, LED light manufacturer in China have been steadily producing these lights at a more affordable rate "" making them accessible for the general public. These lowered prices are a direct result of Chinese techniques and methods when it comes to producing more economical lights of the LED variety.One of the primary reasons why LED lights from Chinese manufacturers are cheaper is because of the unique design of the light emitting diodes. The designs are attractive as well as affordable and therefore, more of a draw for the global consumers than other more expensive...more
Metallogenic Distinction of China"s mercury deposits are as follows: 1) The deposits are relatively concentrated in time and space. Most of the known mercury deposits (or occurrences) in China belong to late Mesozoic time. Of the mercury deposits listed in the Notes to the Metallogenic Map of Endogenetic Metallic Deposits in China (1987), 91% are...more
As of the 1990s, China has had a total of 11 major Hg-producing enterprises (excluding township enterprises), of which 1 produces by-product mercury and 2 recover waste mercury. The country"s integrated mercury ore mining-dressing-smelting capacity has been at 900 t/a, its ore mining-dressing capacity at 1,200 t/a (mercury metal), and its ore...more
At the beginning of the 1950s, China"s mercury industry focused on the taking-over of some mercury mines left over by China before 1949 and the restoration and expansion of their production. From 1950 to 1952, some concerned departments took over the Wanshan, Dadongci, Danzhai and Wuchuan mercury mines in Guizhou and the Huangxian mercury mine in Hunan, and resumed the production of and renovated and extended the mines. The country"s total mercury production was only 3 tons in 1950, rapidly increased to 52 tons in 1951, and hit 108 tons in 1952 when 5 mercury producers (the Wanshan, Tongren, Danzhai, Wuchuan and Huangxian mines) were put into operation. Thereafter, on the basis of large-scale geological prospecting in Guizhou, Yunnan, Sichuan, Shaanxi, Guangxi and Guangdong, the above-mentioned mines were expanded or renovated, a series of pitheads, ore dressing and smelting plants newly constructed, and some new mines were built in certain provinces or autonomous regions, causing a fast growth in the mercury production of China. From the end of the 1950s to the mid-1960s, China"s mercury industry reached its acme. The country"s mercury production hit 2,684 tons in 1959, a record...more
