This is located on the northern edge of the Qaidam Basin, surrounded by the Kunlun Mountains, Altai Mountains, and Qilian Mountains. The water vapor in the Indian Ocean cannot bring rainfall, and the monsoon in the Pacific cannot bring warm winds.


There are sandstorms in spring and autumn, ultraviolet rays in summer, cold winds in winter, and the endless Gobi Desert here


This is close to China's first Mars simulation base, with the earth exposed, mountains partially covered by ravines, spring breeze not lingering, birds rarely flying, snow capped mountains towering in the clouds, and beacon towers standing on the mountaintops. Looking up at the beacon tower, it seems that one can feel the patriotism of the ancient people when they were stationed at the border.

This is the gold mine project of Qinghai Dachaidan Mining Co., Ltd., a subsidiary of Yintai Gold Group, located at an altitude of 3700 meters. In order to better fulfill the mission of "serving shareholders and giving back to society", a group of miners with dreams have gathered here. There is also a young team here, with an average age of 34 and a minimum age of 24. Whether they come from bustling cities or leisurely rural areas, they have united into a group for a common goal - the Mining Department of Qinghai Dachaidan Mining Co., Ltd.

Mining is not as simple as digging a pit or a hole. Whether it is open-pit mining or underground tunnel mining, it is a huge systematic project that requires a large amount of manpower, material resources, and financial resources.


From feasibility study to development and utilization plan, from preliminary design to safety facility design, from construction organization management to completion of six major systems; From development to mining, from mechanical and electrical equipment to system ancillary facilities, every link requires professional technical support and a large amount of financial support. The mining department aims to achieve safer, more efficient, and environmentally friendly mining methods with reasonable funding, which can fully transform resources and create greater value for the company and society.

Overcoming difficulties and building new achievements repeatedly


Since the acquisition of Canada's El Lado Gold project by Intime Gold Group, the mining department has been involved in the Qinglonggou open-pit to underground mining project. Subsequently, the department has initiated infrastructure and planning work for the Qinglonggou South mining section vertical shaft project, 323 open-pit project, and II-III open-pit and underground mining projects.


The affairs of mining infrastructure projects are complex and intricate. From writing reports to forming continuous mining capabilities, it is not only necessary to handle a large number of documents and drawings, formulate various budgets, participate in various bidding processes, but also to carry out construction coordination management and engineering quality supervision and acceptance. Four independent mining projects have been launched one after another, and the workload of the department can be imagined. The routine of working from nine to five and resting at dawn is no longer sufficient to meet the needs.


When soldiers come to block, they are strong.


The more affairs there are, the faster the department operates. The young members of the mining department are always able to unleash more potential when faced with challenges, and they hone themselves in various practices.

When launching the Qinglonggou open-pit to underground project, the winning company had a relatively traditional construction philosophy and lacked experience in mechanized construction. Although they had advanced equipment, they had been stuck in the mindset of relying on human labor tactics, resulting in low labor productivity. The monthly excavation footage was less than 300 meters, and such progress was far from meeting the requirements for the selection plant to resume work as scheduled.


In order to improve the construction level, mining engineering technicians have been observing the construction site for a month, eating and living with workers, and mastering first-hand information about on-site operations. Based on the actual situation, the construction process has been improved. After the improvement, only the support link has been reduced from the original 12 hours to 3 hours, and the monthly excavation footage has steadily increased to 1000 meters, with the highest reaching 1100 meters. We achieved a record of 135.5 meters of single head excavation and support in a single month, and ultimately completed the development phase infrastructure project that was originally planned to be completed in 26 months 13 months ahead of schedule.

Here, you can see their backs delving deep into the front line, feeling the warmth of receiving video chats from their families while staying up late at night, as well as the friendship of returning to the dormitory with stars above their heads. Their common goal is the bond of their emotions, and unity and cooperation are their winning magic.


With their joint efforts, the introduction of medium deep hole trolleys, 3D laser empty field scanners, and remote unmanned and remote-controlled loaders under the open-pit transfer mining project of Qinglonggou Gold Mine has ensured production safety and high efficiency of production capacity, taking a practical step towards the mechanization of personnel replacement, automation of personnel reduction, and intelligent unmanned operation in the international mining situation.


The Qinglonggou open-pit to underground development project has been completed as scheduled, with an annual production capacity of 300000 tons by early 2019, ensuring the resumption of work at the beneficiation plant and fulfilling Yintai Gold's commitment in the capital market.


The excavation and support of the South Vertical Shaft project shaft have been completed, and the installation project is about to start; The 323 open-pit project is stripping topsoil at a rate of 700000 cubic meters per month. In the end, each difficult problem was resolved through their efforts, and with such a team, there is no end to victory.

Continuous learning; Be brave to innovate


The mining team is not only a united and hardworking team, but also a learning and innovative team. In the past two years, under the overall deployment of the company, they have participated in various external learning and software training activities, greatly improving their on-site practice and innovation capabilities.


For example, when facing the landslide of the open-pit slope in Qinglongtan mining pit, everyone actively suggested the treatment process of flexible passive protective net and slope grouting. Compared to the rectification measures of local safety supervision departments, this process is more feasible in construction. After implementation, it was fully recognized by the local safety supervision department, and the company saved more than 2 million yuan in safety investment as a result.


In the 2018 Qinghai Dachaidan Mining Co., Ltd. Innovation Project Evaluation, the Mining Department won two second prizes and two third prizes.


Among them, "3D Software Optimization of Qinglonggou Underground Development System Engineering Design" and "Qinglonggou Open pit Consolidation Landslide Body Treatment Project" won the second prize; The application of RXI-200 passive protective net in the treatment of Qinglonggou open-pit slope and the replacement of sand and gravel aggregates with Qinglonggou open-pit waste rock crushing won the third prize. These innovations saved the company construction costs by optimizing the underground development system engineering design of Qinglonggou with only 3D software, saving the company more than 6 million yuan in excavation costs.

In order to maximize the recovery of the thick and large ore body in the north section of Qinglonggou, they first applied the vertical deep hole retreat type dry filling continuous mining method for mining in China, and published three papers in mining professional journals. At the technology achievement appraisal meeting held by the Science and Technology Department of Qinghai Province, the mining method was evaluated as an international advanced achievement.

Relaxing the body and mind with moderation


Relatively speaking, life in mines is monotonous, especially in the rarely visited Gobi Desert. In order to enrich employees' leisure time, in addition to organizing occasional barbecue activities, sports games, and cultural performances, the department also organizes activities such as pulling sand onions, making dumplings, and building a small garden to grow flowers and vegetables according to the situation. In these leisure activities, employees not only relax their body and mind, but also enhance their friendship.

One project after another is completed, and innovative achievements are applied one by one. On the basis of people-oriented, construction gradually achieves essential safety. At present, Qinghai Dachaidan Mining Co., Ltd. continues to maintain a leading position in modern mining in the country, which is inseparable from the team's enthusiasm for learning and innovation. We believe that in their continuous progress, they will climb more peaks.
