| Abstract |
This paper analyzed the current situation of geological environment in mines in China based on the survey results of National Investigation on Geologic Environment in Chinese mined. It introduced the government's future strategy for the development of Chinese mines. The purpose is to improve the understanding of mining industry in a fast growing country so that sustainable mining industry could be practiced. The results show that the main geologic environment issues in Chinese mines are geological hazards, occupying and demolishing the land and vegetation resources, destroying water resource, soil and water pollution. Ground collapse, ground fissure, landslide and ground subsidence are the main hazards in terms of the accident quantity. Energy mines ranks at the first place for producing the most geologic environment problems. Large-scale and middle-scale mines have better performance than small-scale mines on environment protection. China has realized the facing serious problems caused by mining industry on environment protection. It recently has taken the strategy of promoting green mines and circular economy in order to achieve sustainable development of mining industry. Green mines should have the characteristics of operation in accordance with the law, management in compliance with standardized rules, comprehensive utilization, technological innovation, energy conservation and emission reduction, environmental protection, land rehabilitation, harmony neighborhood, and corporation culture. Achieving the target largely depends on the further practical measure and promotion policies |
