Xi Jinping stressed that Qinghai should speed up the construction of a world-class salt lake industrial base.

President Xi Jinping stressed during his inspection tour of Qinghai that it is necessary to actively cultivate emerging industries. For Qinghai, it is necessary to actively cultivate emerging industries based on the unique resource endowment of the plateau, actively cultivate emerging industries, speed up the construction of a world-class salt lake industrial base, and create national clean energy industry highlands, international eco-tourism destinations, and exporters of green organic agricultural and livestock products.

It is worth mentioning that, as one of the local high-quality lithium resource areas in China, lithium extraction from Qinghai Salt Lake already has the basis for large-scale expansion, among which the Dongtai Gilney Salt Lake area has a capacity distribution of 20,000 tons of lithium carbonate. Yiliping Salt Lake area is rich in the distribution of 10,000 tons of lithium carbonate developed by Minmetals Salt Lake. In addition, in Chaerhan Salt Lake, Lanke Lithium Industry has a production capacity of 10 + 20,000 tons of Lithium Carbonate. Zangge Lithium Industry has a production capacity of 10,000 tons of Lithium Carbonate in this Salt Lake.

Therefore, it is not difficult to see that under the background of the shortage of lithium ore, the extraction of lithium from Qinghai Salt Lake has great potential for development. And SMM will also go to Qinghai on July 19-23 to conduct an on-the-spot investigation with industry leaders on the production of raw material enterprises in China's lithium power industry, in order to seek more accurate and in-depth cooperation and create more effective and continuous exchanges.
