Mineral resources are the material basis of economic and social development. China has become a major producer, consumer and tradi ng country of global mineral resources, but its position and influence in the global mineral resources system are not commensurate with its huge volume. As an important part of the economy and a l arge-scale "going out" industry, the mineral resources industry urgently needs to change the traditional development mode with the expansion of scale as the core, explore then development mode with the improvement of quality as the core, and improve the global resource management ability. From 2015 to 2017, the Chinese Academy of Engineering organized and Consulting Project of "Strategic Study on Mineral Resources Rower". It mainly carried out the evaluation on building a Mineral Resources Power for ten important mineral resources countries, including China, the United States, Japan, and et al. Analyzed the characteristics of typical Mineral Resources Power, studied the evolution of the global pattern of mineral resources, clarified the situation and problems faced by China in building a Mineral Resources Power (The cover picture is No.3 Mine of KeketuohaiI, which located in the northeast edge of Junggar Basin in Xinjiang).
