Information
As of the end of November, the Xinjiang Hami Santanghu coal field, one of the important bases for "transportation of Xinjiang coal to the east" and "transmission of electricity from Xinjiang to the east" in China, has identified a total of 120 billion tons of shallow coal resources at a depth of 2000 meters. Coal production can reach 100 million tons.
 
According to the Xinjiang Coalfield Geology Bureau, since 2009, Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region has invested a total of nearly 1 billion yuan, and organized the coalfield geological exploration department to conduct a survey of the Santanghu Coalfield. On March 25 this year, the Santanghu Coalfield Exploration Project started as the nation's largest packaged coalfield exploration area. In a region of about 200 kilometers long from east to west and 30 kilometers wide from north to south, 15 provinces and regions in the country were assembled. A number of coal geologists and hundreds of drilling, geophysical and other equipment are engaged in geological exploration battles.
 
As of the end of November, the exploration area of ​​the Santanghu Coalfield Exploration Project reached 6,450 square kilometers, the exploration footage reached 600,000 meters, 30 coal seams were found, and the maximum single-layer thickness was 47.25 meters. Submissions of 1,000 meters to shallow coal resources amounted to 55 billion tons and 2000 meters. With shallow resources of 120 billion tons.
 
Zhang Xiang, the leader of Xinjiang Coalfield Geology Bureau 161 team, said that the Santanghu coalfield survey will complete all general surveys and detailed investigations on December 15 to provide comprehensive and accurate geological basic data for the preparation of the overall development plan of the mining area. To provide geological data for feasibility study and preliminary design of mine construction. After entering the development period of the Santanghu Coalfield, the annual output is expected to reach 100 million tons, which is equivalent to Xinjiang's annual coal output in 2010 and will become one of the nation's largest coal development bases.
 
According to the Xinjiang Hami District Office, the Santanghu Coalfield is located in the Santanghu Basin, about 80 kilometers north of Balikun County in the Hami Region. It is a strategy of "transporting Xinjiang coal to the east" and "transmitting electricity from Xinjiang to the east" during the "12th Five-Year Plan" period. As one of the key coal bases for development, there are already large enterprise groups such as Datang, China Power Investment Corporation, and Guodian Group stationed in the development of coal, coal-electricity and coal chemical projects. It is estimated that in 2012, the Santanghu coalfield will enter the stage of large-scale development and construction.
