The mining industry has made outstanding contributions to China's economic and social development, but a series of environmental problems remain. As Green Mines and ecological civilization concepts are put forward the relationship between people and nature is receiving more attention, and especially mining ethics. Present construction standards encompass legal mining, management standardization, comprehensive utilization, technological advancement, energy saving and waste reduction, environmental protection, land reclamation, harmonious community and enterprise culture. As at 2014 the Chinese Ministry of Land and Resources had published 661 Green Mines. Here, we analyze the present situation and prospects of Green Mines in China by the distribution from regional and mine type perspectives. Green Mines are nearly spread over every province and mine type, but Eastern China participated earlier than other areas. We discuss constructing Chinese mining ethics on the basis of traditional ethics and Western ecological ethics as theoretical foundations and practices. We consider that the significance of building Chinese mining ethics in Green Mine construction includes promoting social responsibility, improving environmental protection awareness and accelerating society development. Under the guidance of Chinese mining ethics we propose mining enterprise development models for the future, such as comprehensive uti-lization, circular economy and community harmony.
社会许可(Social License to Operate—SLO)是指企业与当地社区共同参与项目实施全过程中重大问题的决策,并就项目开发所涉及的相关问题达成一致意见,最终由当地社区赋予或确认企业从事项目开发的社会资格或社会权利的一种社会行为。本文论述了社会许可的定义、内涵以及在矿业领域社会许可的表现形式和意义,认为在我国矿业领域推行社会许可是十分必要的:它不仅是促进我国绿色矿山建设的有力手段,而且会对我国矿业的健康发展将起到积极的推动作用。
“一带一路”倡议提出以来,理工科专业的来华留学生数量逐渐增加,开设理工科的全英文专业课程成为趋势。“成矿系统与找矿预测”(Mineral Systems and Exploration)是资源勘查工程和矿产普查与勘探专业的核心主干课程,在矿产勘查领域的人才培养体系中占有十分重要的地位,旨在教授矿产勘查理论知识,提升学生的成矿系统与找矿预测专业英语水平和国际化视野。针对来华留学生存在专业基础差异大和英语水平参差不齐等问题,本文从融合教学理念、革新教学内容、创新教学方式和建立多元考核等方面提出课程的建设思考。
