[SMM Magnesium News] Gansu lists magnesium-based new materials as a strategic emerging industry. Its government work report proposes building a processing base for strategic mineral resources like magnesium, accelerating full-chain development of Pingliang’s 700-million-ton magnesite dolomite and boosting industry with new energy advantages. Pingliang actively responds, planning a 10-billion-yuan magnesium-based new materials cluster. In 2026, it will speed up transfer of magnesite dolomite exploration rights and pilot project construction. Kongtong District, with rich resources, closely cooperates with China Minmetals to promote magnesium smelting and alloy projects. Currently, its explored magnesite dolomite resources exceed 700 million tons.
