Progress in Xinjiang Geological Rsearch in 2023 and the Focus of Work in 2024
In 2023,the Xinjiang Geological Bureau have focus on the new exploration and development pattern of"two rings and eight belts"and the overall exploration layout of"focusing on Kunlun Altun,deepening the Tianshan Mountains and Junggar basin",and make remarkable achievements in the exploration of coalbed gas,shale gas,iron,tita-nium,lithium,gold,copper,nickel and fluorite.It is considered that shale gas in the northwest margin of Tarim Basin,gold in the Kushui area of the East Tianshan,gold antimony in the Qukulek-Huangyangling area of the East Kunlun,and copper and nickel in the Beitashan area of the East Junggar have great prospecting potential.New progress was made in promoting ecological progress,controlling geological disasters,and in serving people's livelihood and local economic de-velopment.The innovation level of geological science and technology continues to improve.In 2024,the key issues re-stricting the breakthrough of mining will be cracked as the starting point,with the goal of"quick mining and quick bril-liance",focusing on strategic minerals,taking scientific and technological innovation as the guide,and efficiently pro-moting a new round of strategic action for mining breakthrough,striving to achieve new breakthroughs in mining,and en-suring national energy and resources security.At the same time,vigorously expand the geological service industry,help rural revitalization,improve people's well-being,and serve the construction of ecological civilization.
