Abstract

This paper (Part II), right after the Part I, also as an information article, introduces the recent progress of “green mine construction” in China. China is a big country in resource exploitation, but there are serious problems such as hidden danger, environmental pollution and resource waste in the exploitation of mineral resources in China. Therefore, the promotion of “green” mining technology, the implementation of “green mine construction” and the promotion of small- and medium-sized mines to green non-waste mining mode transformation and upgrading are crucial measures on the road of China’s mining development, with very important practical significance. Therefore, this information paper of our Chinese mining research mainly reviews the key progress in the construction and development of green mines and introduces four typical green mine examples in China: (1) the mine with the best green environment in China: Jinhui Mining Co., Ltd., Jiuquan, Gansu Province; (2) the most advanced mine in China: Jinchuan Group Company, Jinchang, Gansu Province; (3) the oldest green mine in China: the Suichang gold mine, Lishui, Zhejiang Province; and (4) the most mechanized mine in China: the Pingshuo Coal Co., Ltd., Shuozhou, Shanxi Province. In the abstract, we claim that Part II serves as a guide to begin a conversation and to encourage experts and scholars to engage in the research of this field.
