In an extreme environment of minus 20 degrees Celsius, frozen rock and ice layers form an invisible wall, causing traditional geological detection methods to largely fail. To provide precise "rock CT ...

As major open-pit coal mines in China gradually transition to deep mining, slope heights are continuously increasing. The stability monitoring and landslide early warning of high and steep slopes have...

Long-distance underground pipelines for fluid supply have disappeared, environmental pollution has been eliminated, and energy consumption has been reduced by over 30% — the new-generation intelligent...

Since the introduction of Mendeleev's periodic table, the separation of lanthanides has remained one of the most challenging problems in chemistry and mining. The ionic radii of the 15 lanthanide elem...

In the vast expanse of the universe, the origin and evolution of the moon have always been the ultimate question for human exploration. On April 22, 2026, an exciting piece of news came from Beijing: ...

Researchers at Monash University in Australia have published an article in *Nature Geoscience* exploring how the chemical properties of chalcopyrite can be used to achieve cleaner and more efficient c...

Millions of tons of chromite beneficiation tailings are generated globally each year, with long-term stockpiling not only occupying land but also causing significant waste of rare metal resources. A j...

Green hydrogen-based steelmaking not only implies low carbon emissions but also holds the potential to become a "flexible energy storage unit" for future power systems with high proportions of renewab...

In the salt flats of the Atacama Desert, the radii of magnesium and lithium ions are nearly identical, and their chemical behavior in aqueous solutions is highly similar. This "twin effect" has render...

In the past, coal mine safety monitoring was often plagued by data jumps and false alarms, rendering the "electronic sentinel" sometimes ineffective and eroding trust in mine safety management. Now, a...

Against the backdrop of the "dual carbon" goals and the global clean energy transition, the demand for critical metals such as uranium, copper, and gold is growing exponentially. However, traditional ...
