At present, the global mineral resources database which was built by China Geological Survey has covered more than 60 countries and regions. At the CHINA MINING forum-- private enterprises investment forum of “going outside” held on Nov. 2, Lian Changyun, director of China Geological Survey, disclosed that the database would be projected to cover more than 80 countries and regions by 2015, and provide more services about geological mineral database for “going outside” for Chinese enterprises.
It was introduced that this database would not only include different levels of all kinds of maps of drawing and remote sensing topographic map data of all continents and countries all over the world ,but also provide mining development information like mining rights registration status. Besides sending and publishing these data and information at mining exploration forum abroad, China Geological Survey will also provide the online inquiry services for enterprises.
Lian Yunchang expressed that the building of the system showed our country has formatted the mechanism of government setting up stage, technology going ahead, supporting enterprises "going outside" and developing international mining cooperation. Because of application of the mechanism, China Min-metals Group has gained some high quality mining rights abroad.
Lian Yunchang said the mechanism is consistent with international conventions. Countries as America, England, Japan, Korea, Canada, etc. have successively taken advantage of the mechanism to provide basic geological information through developing the international cooperation of taking the basic geological survey and resources potentiality assessment as the main content, so that reduced the risks of prospecting overseas for their domestic enterprises
It was introduced China Geological Survey has developed the search of metallogenic regularity of the global main ore-forming zone to meet the needs of mutually beneficial cooperation of the global mining industry in recent years and conducted the international cooperation with many countries successively in geological mapping, geophysics , geochemical investigation. From nothing to everything, from small to large, outside geological works have made great progress in range and extent.（translated by TLRHVC）
About CHINA MINING
Since first held in 1999, the scope and influence of CHINA MINING has grown rapidly year by year. As a global mining summit forum and exhibition, CHINA MINING Congress and Expo has become one of the world’s top mining events, and one of the world’s largest mining exploration, development and trading platforms, covering all aspects of the whole mining industry chain, including geological survey, exploration and development, mining rights trading, mining investment and financing, smelting and processing, mining techniques and equipment, mining services, etc. playing an active promotion role in creating exchange opportunities and enhancing mutual cooperation between domestic and foreign mining enterprises.
CHINA MINING Congress and Expo 2013 were held at Meijiang Convention and Exhibition Center in Tianjin on November 2-5, 2013.
