Based on AI-based smart mining technology, the Mineral Resources Research will open a new paradigm in the mineral
resource development ecosystem. To ensure the stability of the core minerals, which are essential elements of national
industrial development, the research researches mineral management technology, precise geophysical prospecting,
resource quantity prediction, smart mine design, etc. In addition, the research conducts research on pollutant management
technology and establishes a national mineral resource policy for eco-friendly resource development.
