Abstract: In response to the construction of ecological civilization of the Party Central Committee, accelerate the transformation of traditional geological exploration work methods and promote the coordinated development of exploration and environment, China will carry out the demonstration of green exploration projects in 2019.The green exploration demonstration has covered 25 provinces and autonomous regions in China from the initial demonstration sites, involving different landscape areas, different minerals, different exploration stages, different sources of funds, etc.According to local conditions, each application unit has formulated green exploration technical requirements that meet the new needs of enterprises, sought and improved various management methods for green exploration, made great efforts to promote technological innovation in exploration technology and process equipment, and preliminarily realized the win-win effect of geological exploration, ecological environment protection and mining land harmony.By combing and summarizing the main progress and existing problems of green exploration project demonstration, combined with the current exploration situation and the development requirements of geological exploration in the new era, this paper suggests to further deploy green exploration demonstration work, focus on promoting technological innovation and training exchange, improve various requirements in the process of refining projects, and promote the normal development of green exploration work.
