Abstract:

Green mining can ensure the sustainability and healthy development of mining under the new situation, and can help to achieve scientific development and social harmony. The Zaozigou gold deposit is the first national green mine in the Gannan Tibetan Autonomous Prefecture. During the green mine construction, we have established the concept of green development, focused on scientific and technological innovation, mineral processing, efficient and comprehensive resource utilization, energy saving and emission reduction, and safe production. We have also maintained the harmony and unity of mine development with the local ecology and people, and protected the fragile ecology of the high-elevation and cold region. Meanwhile, a high-standard green mining enterprise with scientific mining methods, environmentally friendly production processes, efficient resource utilization, standardized enterprise management, and ecological environment in mines and communities has been formed. Our work offers guidance for the development of regional green mining.

Key words: Xiahe-Hezuo metallogenic belt, Zaozigou gold deposit, green mine, mineral resource
