Institution and Team Introduction

Yunnan Precious Metals Laboratory Co., Ltd. (hereinafter referred to as the "Laboratory") is one of the first batch of Yunnan laboratories established. Relying on Sino-Platinum Metals Co., Ltd. as the construction entity, it was registered and established on October 26, 2021, and is an independent legal entity and a new-type R&D institution led by the provincial party committee and government.

It aims to support the high-quality development of the precious metals industry worth hundreds of billions of yuan and cultivate national major scientific and technological innovation platforms (bases), making breakthroughs and innovations in policy support, mechanisms, organizational forms, personnel recruitment, and salary incentives.

An internationally leading R&D platform for new precious metals materials.

A core research platform supporting the clustered development of the precious metals industry and local economic development.

A supply platform for source technologies and convertible achievements of precious metals cluster enterprises.

A training platform for leading talent teams and talent echelons in the precious metals field representing national standards.

An important key platform for the national innovation system and national defense system.

He also introduced the talent categories and numbers within the institution and team.

He further introduced the research and pilot production facilities covering over 22,000 m², the possession of more than 700 sets of various R&D instruments and equipment, laboratory space construction: the Precious Metals Group plans to build a new laboratory and incubation line covering an area of 60,000 m² at the headquarters in the high-tech zone, the technical incubation and industrialisation of nano-micro conductive powders and their electronic pastes/inks/solder pastes and derivative devices, as well as the industrial background, market prospects, and research content of silver-based micro-nano conductive materials.
