Present situation and countermeasures of mining economic development and ecological protection in China

At present, China is in the new industrialization period.The rapid economic development and substantial development of mineral resources have caused a burden to the ecological environment, such as geological disaster, soil and water pollution, air pollution, solid waste problem, land occupation and destruction and other issues.This paper expounds the importance of ecological environment protection, and puts forward that it is particularly necessary for mining economy development to take the road of coordinated development between mineral exploitation and ecological environment.Firstly, to accelerate the development of circular economy and promote energy conservation and emission reduction.Secondly, to attach importance to environmental assessment and evaluation of protected areas.Thirdly, to improve the environment through multiple channels and speed up ecological restoration.Economic development and environmental protection are not opposites.They are the objective needs of achieving national economic development and meeting people’s aspirations for a better life.Only by building a green mining economy that develops in harmony with the ecological environment and realizing the harmonious unity of economic and ecological benefits, can we realize the sustainable development of the Chinese nation.
