Liberation of twenty thousand square kilometers of mineral area
Deputy Minister of Exploration of the Geological Survey of Iran: The number of geological-mineral maps in the scale of one fifty thousand and larger with an area of two hundred hectares (up to twenty-five areas) was also implemented.
According to the International Iranian Stone Exhibition, the Deputy Minister of Exploration of the Geological Survey of Iran stated: A review of the 12th government's record in the field of exploration shows that 20,000 square kilometers of all zones and most of the exploration areas were liberated.
Mohammad Baqir Dori stated: In the twelfth government, great strides were made in the implementation of in-depth explorations and explorations on the scale of twenty-five thousand.
He added: "So far, the number of geological maps in the scale of twenty-five thousandth has reached two hundred and eighty pages, and in the field of exploratory geochemical maps in the scale of twenty-twenty-five thousandths, one hundred and nineteen pages or anomalous ranges have been published."
The Deputy Minister of Exploration of the Geological and Mineral Exploration Organization of the country stated: The number of geological-mineral maps on the scale of one thousand fifty thousand and larger with an area of two hundred hectares (up to twenty-five areas) was also implemented.
It is worth mentioning that the Geological and Mineral Exploration Organization of the country last year carried out operations to identify mineral reserves in an area of one hundred and fifty thousand square kilometers, and this continues this year, while liberating sixty exploration zones began last year, thirty zones. Has been released and will continue to do so this year.
According to the statistics of the Ministry of Industry, Mines and Trade, the amount of mineral reserves identified in the country is about sixty billion tons, of which about thirty-five billion tons are definite and the rest are probable.
The set of activities that were carried out for the exploration of hidden and deep reserves until the end of last year was in the area of one hundred and forty-three thousand square kilometers and is far from the needs of the country. Kilometers are linear.
The official in charge of the Geology and Mineral Exploration Organization of the country explained about the exploratory drilling carried out in the twelfth government: This organization carried out 30,000 meters of exploratory drilling in different parts of the country and the ground geophysical surveys were carried out at one hundred and nine thousand three hundred and eighteen points. Took.
According to him, the extraction of aerial geophysics in five hundred and sixty thousand linear kilometers and the introduction of five hundred and sixty anomalies of different minerals are other achievements of this sector.
The Deputy Minister of Exploration of the Geological and Mineral Exploration Organization had previously said: "Due to the high cost of identifying and exploring mines and also due to the risk of exploration, this work is considered as a functional area of government and governments have a duty to identify and They undertake the exploration of mines.
He pointed out: "Today, the Geological Survey of the country, on behalf of the government, is in charge of exploration and exploitation is done by the public and private sectors."
Dori said: "The fact that the work of exploration of the exploration zone with an area of about twenty thousand square kilometers is one of the important achievements of the Geological Survey of the country in the twelfth government."
He added: "Auction and handing over exploration licenses and discovery certificates to the private sector and state-owned companies have been 34 times, which mainly included minerals of gold, copper, lead and zinc, polymetals and rare earth elements."
The Geological Survey of the country has been conducting auctions for the past two years and considers the basis of calculations based on the added value and value of the mineral, which is more cost-effective.
Mine reports are subject to review by an official forensic expert, and mining pricing is based on the expert opinion and information provided to the buyer, and the buyer takes action after verification and risk assessment.
