Last year China new three billion tons of proven oil major new natural gas reserves of 600 billion cubic meters break

According to the latest Ministry of Land and Resources News reserves statistics, by 2007 China's annual reserves evaluation, filing, registration, storage of the 17 major new large-scale mining and mineral 62, and the new energy mineral resources reserves proved a major breakthrough.

Preliminary results show that, as at the end of 2007, China has a bearing on people's livelihood in the coal, petroleum, natural gas, iron, manganese, copper, lead, zinc, bauxite, tungsten, molybdenum, gold, silver and phosphate, tin, iron sulfur, potassium 17 kinds of salt and other key minerals, a total of new large-scale mineral proved to 62, including new proven oil Fort Jidong, Daqing and Changqing source Gulong three fields with 100 million ton-largest oilfield and natural gas proved Jilin new Changling , the tree Changqing, Sichuan Guangan, Dabei Tarim Basin, the Northern Song Na 5 30 billion cubic meters above the gas field, proven 41 new coal mining and large-scale. This reserves more than 1 billion tons of the mineral to a large 14.

The results showed that in 2007 China's new energy proven geological reserves of mineral substantial increase in oil prospecting and new proven reserves of 1.235 billion tons of geological, and the 2006 additional proven geological reserves of over 949 million tons, an increase of 30.1%, since 1995 additional proven geological reserves second breakthrough 1 billion tons (2004 breakthrough has 1 billion tons). Additional proven natural gas geological reserves of 617.8 billion cubic meters, which is China's proven natural gas geological reserves of the first time it topped 600 billion cubic meters. Exploration of coal resources identified reserves net 44.8 billion tons.

According to reports, the 2007 major new mineral proven geological reserves growth is the main reason: China's favorable conditions for mineralization, resources have great potential; around effectively strengthen geological work, a substantial increase in geological prospecting, mineral exploration business mechanism has been initially established, active commercial mineral exploration, making major new mineral proven geological reserves continued to grow.
