Main business areas; regional geological survey, exploration for solid mineral resources, remote sensing, geophysical exploration, geochemical exploration, drilling, hydrogeology, engineering geology and environmental geology survey, mapping, geological disaster prevention, geological research, mining development, overseas mineral exploration and development, etc. With emphasis in non-ferrous metals geological survey and research, regional geological survey and mineral exploration projects from central and regional governments, all kinds of commercial geological projects, mineral exploration projects for big mining companies, overseas mineral exploration projects, providing decision making support and consulting services for certain departments of the government.
The main tasks are public interest geological projects of China geological survey, from 2007-2016, 71 projects, total project funding is 452,630,000 RMB; two of these projects are among the Top Ten Resources Base in the new discoveries of China geological survey
Investigation and Evaluation of Ecological Environment Resources
To the principle of resources development and comprehensive benefit maximization of regional resource potential, the technical and economic integration assessment, environmental impact, the exploration development grade partition is put forward, optimize the layout of the development of regional resources and environment and mining to achieve green mining development, do “to find gold and silver hill and to keep clean water and green mountains”.
Green Management Technology of Ecological Environment
The core of loam matrix technology is the combination of engineering, botany and soil science. High performance loam matrix structures suitable for plant growth in nature were rapidly simulated by bionics. It can be widely used in mine- ground disaster management and environmental restoration. High and steep slope ecological protection and vegetation restoration; Water body ecological wetland and water environment restoration; Soil- contaminated soil remediation, saline soil remediation, Gobi desert treatment. The research center for ecological and environmental green governance was established in Beijing on February 28, 2018.
