Core Insights - The press conference held by the State Council Information Office on October 10 highlighted the achievements in high-quality development of natural resources during the "14th Five-Year Plan" period [1] - Significant breakthroughs in mineral exploration for strategic emerging industries have been made, establishing a world-leading resource supply system [1] Mineral Resources Development - Lithium, a core resource for electric vehicles, has seen the discovery of the "Asian Lithium Belt," which spans 2,800 kilometers across Sichuan, Qinghai, Tibet, and Xinjiang, with multiple large and super-large lithium mines identified [1] - Key technologies have been developed to extract lithium from potassium salt brine and low-grade lithium mica [1] Helium Production Advancements - Helium, used as a coolant and protective gas in fields such as nuclear magnetic resonance, semiconductors, and aviation, has historically been imported; however, China has achieved a significant breakthrough in extracting helium from natural gas through technological advancements [1] - Domestic production capacity for helium is now sufficient to meet core demand [1]

锂矿是新能源汽车核心资源，我国新发现"亚洲锂腰带"，从东往西横跨了四川、青海、西藏、新疆四个 省区，长度达到2800公里，在这个重要稀有金属成矿带上，已经找到多个大型和超大型锂矿。同时，我 们还突破关键技术，在钾盐卤水中提取锂资源，在低品位的锂云母中提取锂资源。 氦气作为冷却剂、保护性气体，广泛应用于核磁共振、半导体和航空等领域，我国过去主要依靠进口， 现在通过科技攻关形成了在天然气中提取氦气的技术体系，使我国氦气实现从无到有的重大突破，国内 产能可以满足核心需求。 （文章来源：央视新闻） 国新办今日举行"高质量完成'十四五'规划"系列主题新闻发布会，介绍"十四五"时期自然资源工作高质 量发展成就。 据介绍，我国战略新兴产业矿产取得重大找矿突破，打造了领先世界的资源供应体系。 ...
