Minerals Resources are Exploited in
Rush to Feed Chinese Cities
2009-02-21
So called Xinjiang Autonomous Region national
resource management beuruo announced that Chinese
central government and local government together
will invest one billion 120 million Chinese Yuan
to exploit new mineral resources of East Turkistan
in two years. Investment will focus on ten special
area’s geological research. They planned to
investigate 32 thousand square km area that could
be found significant geological minerals. In 2008
Chinese geologists found locations of 35 important
mineral deposits. Those mineral deposits mainly
include the soda nitrate, coal, iron, copper, and
zinc. Coal reserve that already found was 21
billion 600 million tons and iron reserve was 72
million tons in last year in East Turkistan. China
is aggressively planning to reach the coal
exploitation to 40 billion tons in this year.
However, they neglect the poverty and natural
disasters caused by arbitrary exploitation of
natural resources that rush to transfer to inland
China.
