Geological surveys indicate that the reserves of Panzhihua vanadium titanium magnetite reach 10 billion tons, accounting for 20% of the country's iron ore reserves; The vanadium resource reserves are 15.788 million tons, accounting for 62% of the national reserves; The reserve of titanium resources is 870 million tons, accounting for 90.5% of the national reserve. In addition, it is accompanied by resources such as copper, manganese, sulfur, gallium, scandium, rare earth, platinum group, etc.

In 1965, Comrade Deng Xiaoping praised during his on-site investigation in Panzhihua; This place is uniquely blessed;.

44 years ago, the ten thousand ton explosion at Shizishan opened a new chapter in the development and utilization of vanadium titanium magnetite resources in Panxi.

Located in the resources of Panzhihua vanadium titanium magnetite, for many years, Panzhihua Steel has been committed to research and development of mining technologies such as steep slope railway transportation system, open-pit mine slope technology, and railway dump technology, achieving significant economic and social benefits.

Due to the close symbiosis of iron, titanium, and vanadium, and the accompanying presence of dozens of elements such as chromium, cobalt, and scandium, the vanadium titanium magnetite resources in Panzhihua have become the most complex vanadium titanium magnetite in the world. Some people have vividly likened vanadium titanium magnetite to "; Chicken ribs& Flash& Flash; Eating without taste is a pity to abandon.

Faced with difficulties, the people of Pangang did not retreat. They pursued the pace of large-scale production, constantly trekking to touch the strong pulse of the mine. To create; Modern Steel Vanadium Titanium Grain Warehouse;, Maximizing the comprehensive recycling and utilization of titanium resources and coexisting metals in Panxi vanadium titanium magnetite, for the past 50 years, Panzhihua Iron and Steel Group has been meticulously cultivating the technology of selecting iron and titanium from Panxi vanadium titanium magnetite. The efficient recycling process and equipment industrialization integration technology of Panzhihua titanium iron ore are internationally leading, and they have advanced forward on the journey of leading the development of national vanadium titanium industry.

In 2003, the Panzhihua Vanadium Titanium Magnetite Iron Refining and Titanium Stabilization Expansion Project was fully launched.

Recalling the situation at that time, Wang Yong, the director of the beneficiation design and research room of the Mining Research Institute, vividly remembers:; Originally, the grade of iron concentrate was only 52.5%, and increasing the grade would result in a sharp decrease in production. It is very difficult to increase production while also increasing taste& Rdquo; After 3 years, in December 2006, through efforts, the step grinding and step separation transformation was successfully achieved, and the grade of Panzhihua iron concentrate was increased to TFe54.0%.

In 2007, it produced 5.08 million tons of vanadium titanium iron concentrate, 7.8783 million tons of vanadium titanium iron concentrate in 2010, 10.5595 million tons of vanadium titanium iron concentrate in 2012, and 12.07 million tons of vanadium titanium iron concentrate in 2013, making it the second mining enterprise in China to produce over ten million tons of iron concentrate&hellip& Hellip;

Those who have deep roots have long streams, while those who have deep roots have lush leaves. Under the spring breeze of scientific development, the people of Panzhihua Iron and Steel Group have climbed up the ladder, step by step to new heights, and year by year to new changes. Perhaps numbers are boring, but they are full of the hard work of the people of Pangang.

Billions of years ago, the miraculous crustal movement enriched titanium concentrate resources in Panxi.

The people of Pangang have a unique understanding of responsibility. In 1980, on the basis of years of exploration, Pangang built a titanium selection plant, opening a new chapter in the utilization of Panxi's titanium resources.

In 1980, the trial production line for coarse grained ilmenite at the beneficiation plant was completed, with an annual output of only 50000 tons. In 1995, the production scale of titanium concentrate was expanded to 100000 tons. In 2001, a production line for fine-grained titanium concentrate was established, forming a fine-grained ilmenite process, filling the gap in fine-grained titanium separation technology in the field of mineral processing at home and abroad. In 2010, the expansion and renovation project was fully put into trial production, producing 373300 tons of titanium concentrate. In 2014, 540100 tons of titanium concentrate were produced, setting a record for 35 years of production.

This is not only digital, but also an acceleration of the development of titanium selection technology at Pangang, and a bold step forward in the development of titanium resources at Pangang.

And behind these dark and shiny titanium concentrates, there is a hard work and an indomitable strength from the people of Pangang.

For many years; Panzhihua Brand&# quo; Titanium concentrate has always been regarded as a benchmark product for titanium concentrate due to its high content of titanium dioxide, no radioactive substances, and high acid hydrolysis rate. It has been rated as a benchmark product for 9 consecutive times; Sichuan Province Famous Brand Products;. (Reporter Zhang Yuxin)
