It is learnt from Henan Bureau of Geology & Mineral Resources on December 23 that the geological exploration team of Henan found a super large molybdenum-tungsten deposit at Lengshui-Chitudian in Luanchuan, Luoyang after about ten-year exploration
Based on the current prices of molybdenum and tungsten, the potential value of the deposit is about 500 billion yuan (71.44 billion US dollars) . Up to now, Luanchuan, "China's capital of molybdenum", has accumulated reserves of 6,317,700t of molybdenum, 1,382,800t of tungsten, 991,800t of lead, 3,378,300t of zinc, 1,120 . 83t of silver and 82,900t of copper . After the achievement is submitted, Luanchuan is expected to become "the world's molybdenum capital" with the tungsten and molybdenum resources surpassing Chile's Spence Mine (2,570,000t).
. Accordingly, 3,170,400t of molybdenum, 439,600t of tungsten, 361,600t of lead, 2,362,900t of zinc, 2 . 71t of copper and 391 . 82t of silver are added, equivalent to a new found of 39 large molybdenum mines, 14 large tungsten mines and 5 large lead-zinc mines.Based on the current prices of molybdenum and tungsten, the potential value of the deposit is about 500 billion yuan (71.44 billion US dollars) . Up to now, Luanchuan, "China's capital of molybdenum", has accumulated reserves of 6,317,700t of molybdenum, 1,382,800t of tungsten, 991,800t of lead, 3,378,300t of zinc, 1,120 . 83t of silver and 82,900t of copper . After the achievement is submitted, Luanchuan is expected to become "the world's molybdenum capital" with the tungsten and molybdenum resources surpassing Chile's Spence Mine (2,570,000t).
