Recently, a large gold deposit was discovered in Yumen City, Gansu Province, with a length of about14km, 10-100m wide.This major discovery is a large-scale gold deposit discovered through large-scale geochemical exploration on the basis of basic geological survey.

This achievement has a significant impact on the southern belt of Gansu Beishan area gold mine prospecting It has important guiding significance, especially in the selection of exploration methods, sorting out of prospecting ideas, and direction analysis, providing practical experience that can be referenced for gold exploration in similar areas.

Therefore, this technological breakthrough is far more precious than gold itself.It opens up the surrounding area to look for gold"Navigation" provides the guarantee of science, technology and exploration technology for the future exploration work in this area.

This is also fromThe largest achievement of gold and metal resources exploration since the establishment of Gansu Provincial Geological Exploration Fund in 2009.

according toStandard for Classification of Mineral Resources Reserves issued in 2020 , the scale of gold mine is classified into Gold metal content Based on, Rock gold deposit Large standards are≥ 20 tons, 5-20 tons for medium size,<5 tons for small size 。

In other words, the scale of gold deposits discovered in Gansu is equivalent to the resources of two large gold deposits.

It is reported that the proven mineral resources in Gansu Province include nickel, cobalt, platinum group, etcThe reserves of 14 strategic minerals rank first in the country, and the gold resource reserves rank second in the country, second only to Shandong Province.

As an indispensable strategic resource and priority of risk avoidance, the steady growth of gold reserves is like a strong driving force, which directly drives the vigorous development of local mining, smelting, jewelry processing and other related industrial chains.
