Abstract: Research on environmental regulation has become a hot spot in the field of resources and environment economy, and its impact on industrial restructuring is also well recognized.This paper analyzes the relevant literature about environmental regulation, industrial structure optimization and the path of influencing industrial structure adjustment, and then it is found that most of the existing studies fail to consider industry differences and regional heterogeneity.Therefore, it is necessary to design indicators reflecting the characteristics of the mining industry, to establish model analysis of regional heterogeneity and to study relevant policies and regulations.
