It may also facilitate electricity exports to Bangladesh and Myanmar, increasing China's influence in South Asia [2]. - **Investment Breakdown**: The construction period is approximately ten years, with infrastructure investment accounting for 50% of the total investment. The project will require 250,000 tons of industrial explosives and 360 million electronic detonators, significantly benefiting the explosives industry [1][4]. - **Comparison with the Three Gorges Project**: The Motuo project will use a larger quantity of explosives compared to the Three Gorges Project, with total investment being four to five times greater. The Three Gorges Project used over 50,000 tons of explosives, while Motuo's requirements are expected to be much higher due to its geological and construction challenges [5][10]. - **Current Progress**: As of 2023, preliminary work has focused on geological data collection, traffic tunnel construction, and surface blasting, with approximately 6,000 tons of explosives already used [6][7]. - **Peak Usage of Explosives**: The peak period for explosive usage is anticipated to be from the third to the eighth year of construction (around 2027-2028), after which the demand will decrease as the focus shifts to equipment installation [8]. - **Market Share and Revenue**: Gaozheng Minbao is expected to capture about 50% of the market share for explosives, generating approximately 30 billion yuan in revenue with a profit margin of around 10% [3][17]. - **Explosive Pricing**: Prices for explosives in Tibet vary by region, with costs around 13,000 yuan per ton in Lhasa and up to 20,000 yuan in remote areas. The overall service fees for blasting are relatively fixed, including monthly service fees and operational costs [13][14]. - **Profitability of Explosives**: The profit margin for explosives in the region is higher than in mainland China, positively impacting the overall profitability of the Motuo project. The estimated revenue from explosives could reach around 35 billion yuan based on projected usage [23][24]. Other Important but Possibly Overlooked Content - **Geological Challenges**: The complex geological conditions and transportation difficulties in the region significantly affect construction progress and the reliance on blasting rather than tunneling machines [26]. - **Supplier Involvement**: Various companies are involved in different aspects of the project, including cement supply from Huaxin Cement and road construction by Xizang Tianlu, which are included in the total investment [21][32]. - **Bidding and Contracting**: The bidding process for the project has been ongoing, with several companies already confirmed to participate in construction tasks [35]. - **Impact on Local Economy**: The project is expected to have a substantial impact on the local economy, providing jobs and boosting the demand for local materials and services [2][4].
