Data show that in 2022, China Lithium Mining reserves increased by 57%year -on -year, of which Jiangxi reserves exceeded Qinghai and Sichuan and ranked first in China.
According to the China News Agency, Bo Zhiping, Director of the Ministry of Mineral Resources Protection and Supervision of the Ministry of Natural Resources of China, announced the statistics of Chinese mineral resource reserves at the press conference on Wednesday (June 14) at the press conference.
Bo Zhiping said that lithium is known as "green energy metal" and "white oil", which is widely used in energy storage, chemical, medicine, metallurgy, electronic industry and other fields.With the global green low -carbon transformation and the rapid development of new energy vehicles, the strategic position of lithium resources has become increasingly prominent, and countries have included lithium into its key mineral directory, and pay close attention to the security of lithium resources.
Bo Zhiping mentioned that China has rich types of lithium ore, including salt lake brine lithium ore, spindle pyroxin mine and lithium cloud mother mine, but the overall quality is low and high -quality lithium resources are less. It is mainly distributed in Jiangxi.Qinghai, Sichuan and Tibet.According to statistics in 2022, China ’s lithium ore reserves rose 57%year -on -year, of which Jiangxi reserves exceeded Qinghai and Sichuan, ranking first in China, accounting for 40%of China's total.
Bo Zhiping said that the increase in Chinese lithium mine in 2022 was mainly in Jiangxi, accounting for 94.5%of the incremental increase, mainly from two lithium mines in Yichun, Jiangxi.
He further said that the type of Yichun Lithium Mine is mainly lithium cloud mother type.With the improvement of lithium -cloud lithium -lifting technology, the cost has decreased significantly. At the same time, the demand for lithium ore in the lithium battery new energy industry has also risen, and market development willingness has increased significantly. Therefore, Yichun's lithium ore quickly releases the increase in lithium resources to increase the increase in increase.
