The sole industrial structure and poor location in resources-based cities restrict their sustainable development, which requires an industrial transformation. This paper studies their industrial transformation ability that evaluated by setting up an index system, and uses principal component method to analyze their abilities in Henan’s five prefecture cities, Pingdingshan, Jiaozuo, Hebi, Puyang and Sanmenxia, with results showing that Jiaozuo ranks top, next by Sanmenxia and Pingdingshan, Hebi and Puyang at the bottom. This paper summarizes Jiaozuo’s transformation experience so as to provide reference for other resources-based cities.
Xuzhou, a typical resource-exhausted city with sole industrial structure, less economic growth point, and poor employment, is facing vast structural unemployment due to the exhausted resource. It is challenge that a labor transfer is unavoidable. This paper, based on a case study on Xuzhou, under the precondition of resource-exhausted city theory and surplus labor transfer mode theory, uses qualitative and quantitative method to analyze the feature of Xuzhous labor transfer, and presents approaches to a proper selection of surplus labor transfer mode, which guarantees a full employment for this transferred labors and promote a sustainable development in its economy.
Resources-based cities are now facing issues such as exhausting resources, single structure, environmental pollution and slow economy. To avoid the “resources curse”, it is necessary to promote an industrial transformation in resourcesbased cities to keep a sustainable development. Liupanshui, as an important resource city in western China, is in its bloom in mining sector with a fast economic growth. Now it is the best period for urban development, and the best time for transformation as well. This paper analyzes the issues and opportunities in Liupanshui’s transformation, and presents suggestions in path and strategy.
To assume China ’coal production center migration trend is based not only on coal resource potential, but also on utilization cost, social cost, environmental benefit, in accordance with synthetic evaluation on coal resources, hence, synthetic evaluation system is employed to help assume the coal production center migration trend. This paper builds up a regression model based on China’s synthetic evaluation results on coal resources, which indicates the trend will go westward that Gansu and Ningxia will become centers in a short term, Xinjiang in a long term.
Environment supervisor system in enterprises has been established to supervise enterprise’s environmental responsibility via Japanese enterprise environment manager system and some related laws and regulations. Some Chinese administration has actively launched this system after trials so environment has been protected to some degree, but this system is not a law, and can not be carried out effectively. This paper discusses how to optimize this environment supervisor system in enterprises in legislation and other related regulations.
This paper, from the economic relation among country (owner), mining right owner (user) and resource location (local government), illustrates the economic attribute of resource tax and resource compensation fee, and validates the ore resources tax and fee, and establishes a new ore resource tax and fee system fitting China’s situation. Mathematical method is applied to calculate the ore resources taxation schedule, with objectives of population growth, environmental protection, economic growth, and social improvement, an evaluation system is set up to quantitatively analyze the ore resources tax, which is more scientific and rational. This paper presents an appropriate increment in compensation fee, and a rise in country’s interest from ore resources. The interest allocation plan needs optimization so that a mutual development of central and local governments. And a supporting reform program is raised to incorporate ore resource strategic reservation and environmental fee into ore resource taxation in order to reach the sustainable development and guarantee of country’s ore resources.
This paper applies factor method to analyze the fixed assets investment in 14 sectors in Xinjiang’s 15 areas, of which 3 common factors, fixed assets investment, service investment and advanced industry investment, are selected to study the investment structure and industrial layout in each area. Clustering analysis is applied to classify the 15 areas into 5 categories by their similar investment structure. The 3 common factors are used in regression analysis to find the relation between investment structure and economic growth, with result indicating a positive drive from fixed investment, but negative from service investment and advanced industry. It shows that Xinjiang’s economy is primitive. This paper offers reference for Xinjiang to optimize and adjust the fixed assets investment and industrial structure.
This paper, uses data envelopment analysis (DEA) to evaluate the innovation ability in eastern and western China and analyzes their innovation ability difference, and shows a higher intelligence allocation efficiency in the western, and a higher commercial result allocation efficiency in the eastern. This paper also studies the issues in innovation process and provides suggestions setting up interactive mechanism. The western and eastern shall create an effective intelligence alliance and innovation technology alliance to focus on resources-based motives, benefit allocation standard, government’s service and continued policy support.
This paper gives an introduction to informatization construction developing trend of China’s major mining enterprises, aiming at the needs of mining enterprises of our bureau, carries out the services -oriented smart mine construction. The informatization process, services-oriented, reorganizes the politic affairs and business services, links through web internet and internet of things its production, management and sales, and integrates them one synthetic smart mine system, which can be authorized to use via networks. This greatly improves the mine enterprises-administration and production efficiency, and promotes an optimized allocation, and reaches a green and scientific development.
Chinese mining enterprises show a big interest in foreign investment, which needs protection. The conflicts, to some degree, come from a missing or inappropriate public responsibility, and a poor coordination with the host nations. This paper, from the perspective of investing enterprise and the host nation’s economy, analyzes the Chinese investor’s public responsibility, and presents its concept and contents. The public responsibility of mining enterprises in foreign investment shares the general responsibility of trans-nation enterprises, and is unique as well, needing a serious treatment.
According to China’s laws and regulations, resource compensation fee on iron ore is charged by crude ore, but the price market of China’s iron ore is not mature. This paper uses mining cost and processing cost to determine the rational price of crude iron ore, and analyzes its factors, clarifies the influence of crude iron ore grade to price. Based on Chinese iron ore producers cases, a pricing model is set up from a relation of crude ore grade and price, which can be used to calculate the pricing rate of iron ore with variable grades. For a simplified process, a suggestion is presented that the compensation fee can be charged by iron ore grade interval.
Resource tax and fee policy means resources are used by payment, and a hot reform point in resources domain. The current resource compensation system has issues such as a low and fixed rate, a primitive confiscation means, which can not catch up with the resource economy. Especially the rate plan and confiscation management help an over mining and disordered competition. This paper, based on REE and copper mines investigation in Inner Mongolia and Jiangxi, presents an adjustment rate plan and detailed confiscation plan, and evaluates the possible impact.
The sustainable development of coal resource has been largely challenged by a low yield, polluted eco-environment, pressured safety and weak conversion-in-situ ability. This paper gives an overview of safe, green and high-efficient development, presents its concept and connotation from coal mining, processing and converting, that is, under a safe condition, mining coal by using advanced technology and means must not destroy or as less as possible the environment, and processing/converting coal at a high efficiency. This paper discusses the issues and presents a comprehensive evaluation, coordinated development model, development path and policy.
