全球锗资源分布供需与产业链发展现状思考OACSTPCD

This is an article in the field of mineral engineering.Germanium ore is an indispensable strategic rare metal resource in the fields of information and communication,modern aviation,military,new energy and many other high-tech fields.The world's germanium resources are relatively scarce and unevenly distributed,with nearly 96％of proven germanium reserves concentrated in a few countries such as the United States,China,and Russia.As one of the most important strategic advantageous mineral resources in China,germanium is distributed in 14 provinces(regions)throughout the country.The deposit types are mainly coal seam and carbonate hosted type,and are concentrated in five germanium forming regions(belts),including the Great Xing'an Mountains,the Three Rivers in Southwest China,Sichuan,Yunnan and Guizhou,the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River,and the Nanling Mountain.By analyzing the endowment,distribution,and development and utilization of germanium resources at home and abroad,and assessing the consumption situation and supply and demand pattern of the world and China's germanium industry chain,it is proposed to increase the exploration of key germanium mineralization areas(belts)in China,carry out research and development of high-end germanium materials and application technologies,strengthen the optimization and upgrading of the germanium industry structure,and promote the green,healthy,and virtuous cycle development of germanium secondary recycling.
