190 1, Fushun started coal mining. Since then, Fushun has become the focus of the world. Fushun coal is famous for its high output and good quality. The dark "black gold" has brought wealth and glory to Fushun, and has contributed 654.38 billion tons of coal to the country only after the founding of the People's Republic of China. Fushun is one of the earliest areas in China to bid farewell to the agricultural society, and its reputation as "coal capital" has been famous all over the country and even the world. Fushun's coal resources are on the verge of exhaustion, and the proportion of coal mines in Fushun's GDP is decreasing year by year. Some people say that "coal capital" has long been misnamed, but the fact that Fushun is the only coal capital named by the country remains unchanged. In geographical knowledge, "Fushun" is always the standard answer of "coal capital". The joke of "steel is hard and coal is black" laments that * * * and the eldest son of China are no longer famous, and it is also an affirmation of the historical status of classic heavy industry cities such as Anshan and Fushun.

Great harmony

Datong City, Shanxi Province is located in the northeast of Datong Coalfield, and its coal resources belong to a part of the geological concept "Datong Coalfield". Datong Coalfield has a coal-bearing area of 926 square kilometers and a total exploration reserve of 71.800 million tons. Jurassic coal is famous for its low sulfur, low phosphorus, low ash and high calorific value. It is high-quality power coal and chemical raw coal. The unique advantages of coal resources make Datong an important national energy base, known as the "coal capital" of China. Datong has an annual output of 80 million tons of raw coal, which supports gas production enterprises in five major thermal power networks, three major ports and six major cities and more than 2,800 large and medium-sized enterprises in more than 20 provinces, municipalities and autonomous regions, strongly supports the national economic construction and is exported to more than 20 countries and regions in Europe, Asia and the United States.

Ordos

With the acceleration of the country's "energy strategy moving westward", China's reputation as "coal capital" has changed hands again. Last year, Ordos City, Inner Mongolia jumped to the top of the national prefecture-level coal-producing cities with a coal output of 810.03 million tons, surpassing Datong City, an old coal capital of China.

According to the introduction of the Coal Industry Bureau of Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region, in the past four years, the output of raw coal in Ordos City has increased by more than 6,543,800 tons per year, with an increase of 26,543,800 tons last year, which is equivalent to the annual output of Kailuan Coal Mine in Hebei Province, the "coal capital" in the 1970s.

Last year, the output of raw coal increased the most in China's history. According to the statistical bulletin issued by the State Administration of Coal Mine Safety, in 2003, the national raw coal output reached 65.438+0.736 billion tons, an increase of 340 million tons over the previous year, and reached a record high for the second consecutive year. Since last year, there has been a power shortage in most parts of China, and many thermal power plants have no rice to cook. At present, the situation of power shortage continues.

At the same time, Yulin City, Shaanxi Province, which ranks among the top cities in China with Erdos City, produced 7 1 10,000 tons of coal last year. Datong City, Yulin City and Erdos City are all located at the junction of Shanxi, Shaanxi and Mongolia in the "Golden Triangle" area rich in coal resources in China. The coal reserves in this area account for more than 60% of the country, including the world-famous Zhungeer coalfield and Shenfu-Dongsheng coalfield. Last year, Shenhua Group, the first 100-million-ton coal enterprise in China, was born here.

According to the data, the name of "China Coal Capital" has changed hands several times since the founding of the People's Republic of China. The earliest coal producer was Fushun, Liaoning. Fushun produced 9 million tons of raw coal in 1938, and only110 in 1949. After three years of recovery, its annual output exceeds100000 tons. Followed by Kailuan in Hebei, the record at that time was 20 million tons/year; Since the 1980s, all new coals in Datong, Shanxi Province have risen, with an annual output of more than 30 million tons of raw coal. The most brilliant coal reached more than 86 million tons in the mid-1990s, and then gradually shrank.

Due to the exhaustion of resources, the coal industry in Fushun, the old "coal capital", has withdrawn from the historical stage, and petrochemical, coalbed methane and other continuing industries are emerging. Although Kailuan and Datong are still important coal bases in China, the problem of resource exhaustion has become increasingly apparent and attracted enough attention from the government, and the local government has begun to solve the problem of single industry.

As a new "coal capital", Ordos paid full attention to the rationality of industrial structure at the beginning of its development. In addition to coal and related industries, cashmere, building materials, biopharmaceuticals and other industries in Ordos occupy an important position in Inner Mongolia and even the whole country.
