How many strategic mineral deposits are hidden in beautiful Qinghai-Tibet Plateau? Tibet becomes a blessed land of resources

China is a country with vast lands and rich resources, rich in natural resources and a rich cultural history. Fifty-six ethnic groups live in an area of ​​9.6 million square kilometers, with a huge area strong>It covers a wide range of areas, so there are large differences in climate and topography, which also creates significant differences in China from north south and from west to east.

South East Generation is a coastal economic development zone where business, services, import and export, etc. are developing very rapidly, and it is also an economically powerful province >. in China The main distribution areas are mainly distributed in provinces of Jiangsu, Shanghai, Zhejiang, Fujian, Guangdong, Guangxi and others.

In addition, tourist resources in these areas are also very rich, and landscape is diverse, such as plains, islands, hills, mountains, etc., which creates beautiful scenery, warm climate, pleasant landscapes and a long food culture, rich food and aquatic products.

Give people a gourmet paradise here. There are also many animal and plant resources, as well as famous land of fish and rice, land of fruits, many resorts for recreation and ecotourism.

And leaning further down middle, we come to Central Plains region of China. In fact, we have always referred to ourselves as descendants of Huaxia, who are inseparable from Central Plains region. , because in Central Plains region in ancient China there was always a huaxia. It is center of Heluo civilization, where Yellow River and Yangtze flow.

The Chinese character in name shows that ancients attached great importance to Central Plains. The central plains, ancients understood them as "center of world." It is cradle of our Chinese culture.

Therefore, all dynasties like to establish their capitals and countries in Central Plains. Since Xia Dynasty, there have been more than 20 dynasties in total. More than 300 emperors established their capitals or moved their capitals to Central Plains, which has always been center of Chinese politics, economy, culture and transportation. efforts in world.

From northwest and southwest, this is largest land area in China. It is located in inland areas, mainly including the Kunlun Mountains west of Daxing'anling, surrounded by provinces located here mainly include Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region, Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region, Ningxia Hui Autonomous Region, Gansu Province and Tibet Autonomous Region.

Provinces with clear ethnic characteristics, less rainfall and far from sea, so unique Gobi desert and snowy mountains and other magnificent natural landscapes have formed here, if south of Yangtze River is gentle Like a soft and beautiful woman, here is a man of broad views and unbiased views. Today we will talk about Tibet Autonomous Region.

Tibet is located in southwest of China. It is one of five autonomous regions of China where ethnic minorities live. The main ethnic group is Tibetans. It is located in southwest of Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, so average altitude is more than 4000 m. It has title of roof of world >".

The climate in Tibet is harsh, and population living here is small. In 2021, resident population will approach only 4 million, but area is close to one-eighth of China's total area. In terms of area, Tibet is second only to Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region.

Because Tibet is far from Central Plains, it was always called Tubo and was peacefully liberated only after founding of New China. The unique geographical position of Tibet has also created magnificent, magical and majestic natural scenery here. Among countless beauties of China, author believes that Tibet and Xinjiang are the most magnificent and majestic.

Tibet is not only a beautiful landscape, but also a region with rich minerals in my country. There are countless copper deposits here. Until 2018, copper reserves in my country were low. They were maintained at a level of more than 30 million tons, which is about 4% of world reserves.

In 2020, my country's exploration team discovered copper mines with significant reserves of about 20 million tons in concentrated distribution in Tibet and about 10 million tons of scattered copper mines, equivalent to today's copper mines in China. Since ancient times, China has a long history of development and use of bronze.

However, amount of copper is not dominant. It can be said that this is a large country that lacks copper, but my country does not mine copper in Tibet, because everyone here knows that although Tibet is beautiful, environmental environment here is unique in country and very fragile.

Here in country, there are many unique ecological species. Reckless mining will inevitably destroy ecological environment, and damage done to environment cannot be repaired by buying copper mines and making people aware of need to protect environment. environmental protection has aroused great attention of people.

Another point is that copper is a metal that can be reused. It has far-reaching implications for both modern society and sustainability of our future generations. Therefore, my copper in Tibet is still well preserved.
