The government work reports of the two associations this year referred to new energy vehicles in many areas: 'Promoting the development of integrated circuits, fifth-generation mobile communications, aircraft engines, new energy vehicles, new materials, etc.' 'Extending the preferential policies for the purchase of new energy vehicle vehicles In the past three years, the use of new energy vehicles has become a trend. Recently, the reporter learned from the Provincial Bureau of Geology and Mineral Resources that in the past five years, the total amount of proven lithium in Sichuan Province has exceeded 2 million tons. Lithium is the main battery for new energy vehicles. Ingredients will provide a lot of raw materials for the market.
Lithium is a kind of light metal, which has the characteristics of low ignition point, small pollution, controllable, recyclable, etc. It was used in the manufacture of aerospace industry and mobile lithium battery, but China's lithium mineral resources rely heavily on imports at this stage. In fact, China’s large-scale resources, In particular, the Sichuan region is rich in natural resources, but a large number of lithium deposits have yet to be discovered. Through the efforts of the exploration team, the Provincial Bureau of Geology and Minerals Exploration and Exploration team has identified 1.5 million tons of lithium ore in the Kelvin region of Sichuan’s Aba Prefecture. Including two super-large lithium bases with over 500,000 tons of lithium ore, which accounted for 70% of the entire Sichuan area. In the area of Mika, Ganzi Prefecture, Sichuan Province, about 500,000 tons of lithium ore were also identified. The total of the two places exceeds 2 million tons.
The reporter learned from Tang Wenchun, chief engineer of the Exploration and Production Bureau of the Provincial Bureau of Geology and Mineral Resources that the lithium mineral resources in Sichuan are dominant resources in the country, mainly belonging to solid mineral lithium. In the Qinghai-Tibet plateau region of China, there are also lithium salt lakes. However, because of salt lake lithium There are many impurities in the mine, and the refining technology is not yet mature. It is not proven in large quantities. Therefore, Sichuan, which is rich in solid mineral lithium, has become a major exploration site in the country. 'As far as I know, the resources of Sichuan's lithium mines now account for about With a total of 50% of the country's total, so the current amount of proven, will develop a lot of raw materials for future development.
It is understood that Sichuan Lithium Mine is currently in the phase of verification and has not yet entered scale development. However, Tang Wenchun stated that through the government's approval and planning, the company’s investment, and in the not-too-distant future, we will get a lot of new energy from Sichuan-built batteries. car.
