Public welfare with public welfare first refers to the economic attributes of geological achievements. It is the product of public finance under the market economy system. Under the public financial system, the government provides public goods and services to meet the public needs. Because the consumption of these public goods and services is non-competitive and non-exclusive, it is impossible to adjust the relationship between supply and demand through the market mechanism, and the government can only assume the responsibility of the provider. Public welfare geological achievements belong to this kind of goods and services. However, the government's public service can only go so far, and it can't extend further into the field of commercial geological work. Because commercial geological achievements are called commercial, their consumption and income are exclusive and competitive, and taxpayers' money cannot be used for personal gain for a certain unit or enterprise. This is the policy boundary. What's more, commercial prospecting with public financial expenditure is not effective because of the lack of incentive and restraint mechanism to avoid risks.
the urgent task is for governments at all levels to effectively grasp the work of public geological survey, improve the organization and management of public geological survey, make full use of the production capacity of geological survey in all aspects, speed up the progress of geological survey and achieve a number of new achievements.
commonweal geological prospecting achievements are of great significance and function to economic and social development, mainly in three aspects:
(1) It provides mineral resources information for governments at all levels to formulate development plans and coordinate local economic and social development on the basis of finding out the property of mineral resources.
(2) It provides prospecting information for investors of geological prospecting, and reduces risk loss, especially it affects the overall economic benefits of commercial geological prospecting to a great extent. As an industrial activity, the productivity of commercial geological prospecting is determined by the following five production factors: first, capital, which is not only the starter of geological prospecting, but also the "blood" (that is, cash flow) after it is started. Because any economic activity must first have labor, equipment, raw materials, etc., and all these need funds. After the work is running, it is necessary to continuously invest money. The second is labor, especially the labor force with professional skills in geological prospecting, and the results of geological prospecting are recognized and determined by this ability. The third is technical equipment, which is the hardware of geological prospecting, and its performance plays a very important role in the formation of geological prospecting energy. The fourth is technology and management, which refers to the patented scientific research achievements of mineral exploration and mining, as well as the organization and management ability that affects the geological prospecting effect. Fifth, the potential of mineral resources, which is stored in a certain space (region), is objective and independent of people's will. People can only recognize it, but can't create it. The above five factors work together to form the productivity of geological prospecting. The shortest factor determines the limit of its production capacity. Therefore, the improvement of geological prospecting ability can not be achieved by arbitrarily strengthening a certain element. Among them, the most veto and decision-making factor is the potential of mineral resources, and then the choice of prospecting space and exploration block. The commonweal geological survey for geological prospecting is to solve the problems of geological prospecting potential and geological prospecting space selection. Therefore, the positioning of "public welfare first" is completely in line with the laws of geology and geological work.
(3) It can directly stimulate local economic and social development in areas rich in mineral resources. According to the information provided by the Geological Survey, the completed commonweal geological achievements have incited tens of billions of dollars of follow-up mineral exploration and development funds. Pulang and Yangla copper mines in Yunnan Province, Awulale, Chagangnuoer and Zhibo iron mines in Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region, Qulong and Jiama copper mines in Xizang Autonomous Region, Dataigou in Liaoning Province and Nihe iron mine in Anhui Province, etc., were all planned and built by large enterprises in a timely manner after major new discoveries were made, and large and extra-large deposits were discovered in a short time.
As an example of public welfare promoting commercialization, the successful discovery of the Qulong Copper Mine in Xizang Autonomous Region not only initially revealed the mystery of the huge treasure house of resources in the Gangdise metallogenic belt, but also became the engine to promote the vigorous development of Tibet's mining economy, making a large number of commercial funds flock to Tibet and accelerating the transformation of resource advantages into economic advantages. Tibet Julong Copper Co., Ltd. has been established in Tibet Qulong Copper Mine, with a planned investment of 2.8 billion yuan for exploration and development, 2 million yuan for commercial mineral exploration and 5, meters for drilling.
The Zhibo iron mine in Xinjiang in Awulale mining area has become a model for public welfare to guide business to follow up quickly. The mineral was discovered in 26; In 27, the preliminary evaluation of the surface was carried out; Commercial follow-up in April 28, further exploration and development by Kaihong Mining Company; By the end of 29, 618 million yuan had been invested, which opened the prelude to large-scale exploration and development. Nearly 4 drilling rigs participated in the "General Assembly War", and now the iron resource reserves have been identified as 21 million tons.
after the breakthrough of prospecting in pulang copper mine in Yunnan province, the commercial exploration was followed up in time. Yunnan copper group has invested 7.75 million yuan to complete the detailed investigation and feasibility study. With a total investment of 4.8 billion yuan, it will become one of the largest copper mines in western China, producing 15, tons of refined copper every year, paying nearly 5 million yuan in taxes and creating 7, jobs.
after the discovery of shangri-la copper mine and its peripheral copper deposits (spots) in Yunnan province, 1.5 billion yuan of exploration and development funds were introduced into shangri-la copper mine alone. In Yangla Copper Mine in Yunnan Province, after the central government invested 7.5 million yuan to carry out the general survey, Yunnan Copper Group invested nearly 1 million yuan to carry out the exploration work in the first mining area, and has built a copper concentrator with a daily processing capacity of 3,5 tons, becoming the first copper mine in northwest Yunnan with an output value exceeding 1 million yuan, which has effectively promoted the economic and social development of Deqin County in Yunnan Province.
the exploration of baolun gold mine in Hainan province was the key project of the land and resources survey in 1999, and it was found that the resource reserves exceeded 1 tons, and the average grade of the mining area reached 9.25g/ton. Since the development of Baolun Gold Mine, the output value of gold production has reached 3 million yuan, which has become one of the main sources of local government revenue and promoted regional economic development.
