Foreword

This document is in accordance with the provisions of GB/T 1.1-2020 "Guidelines for Standardization Work Part 1: Structure and Drafting Rules for Standardization Documents" drafting.

This document replaces GB/T 25283-2010 "Code for Comprehensive Exploration and Evaluation of Mineral Resources". Compared with GB/T 25283-2010, except In addition to structural adjustments and editorial changes, the main technical changes are as follows:

--- Deleted the terms and definitions of industrial grade, low-grade ore, comprehensive industrial grade and industrial indicators (see 3.8~ of the 2010 edition 3.11);

--- Added the term and definition of minimum industrial grade (see 3.9);

--- Increased the terms and definitions of the minimum comprehensive industrial grade (see 3.10);

---Changed the purpose of comprehensive exploration and evaluation (see 4.1, Chapter 4 of the 2010 edition);

--- Added the overall principle of comprehensive exploration and evaluation (see 4.2);

--- Changed the overall requirements for comprehensive exploration and evaluation (see 5.1, 5.2 of the 2010 edition);

---Changed the basic tasks of the census stage, detailed survey stage, and exploration stage (see 5.2.1~5.2.3, 4.1~4.5 of the 2010 edition);

--- Deleted the test content (see 5.3 of the 2010 edition);

--- Added the requirements for comprehensive exploration and control (see Chapter 6);

---Changed the ore processing, beneficiation and smelting technical performance sample collection requirements (see 7.2.1, 5.3 of the 2010 edition);

---Changed the technical performance research requirements for ore processing and beneficiation of paragenetic and associated components existing in the form of independent minerals (see 7.2.4, 5.4.2 of the 2010 edition);

---Changed the technical performance research requirements for processing and smelting of component ores that exist in a dispersed state (see 7.2.4, 5.4.2 of the 2010 edition);

---Changed the requirements for the research work level of ore processing, dressing and smelting technology performance (see 7.2.6, 5.4.2.2 of the 2010 edition);

--- Increased application requirements for industrial indicators (see 8.1.1.1~8.1.1.3);

--- Changed the formulation requirements of comprehensive industrial grades (see 8.2.5~8.2.6, 6.1.4~6.1.6 of the 2010 edition);

---Changed the estimation principles and methods of symbiotic and associated mineral resources (see 8.3, 6.1 of the 2010 edition);

---Changed the determination of the reserve type of paragenetic and associated mineral resources (see Chapter 9, 6.4 of the 2010 edition).

1 Scope

GB/T 33444 Solid Mineral Exploration Work Specifications

DZ/T 0339 Technical Requirements for Industrial Index Demonstration of Mineral Deposits

3 Terms and Definitions

The following terms and definitions apply to this document.

3.1 Paragenetic minerals

In the same mining area (ore deposit), there are two or more useful components that meet the industrial index requirements of the deposit, and the scale of its resources can meet the Minerals that are expected to be economically exploitable (i.e. "formed to standard") and that would be affected when the primary mineral is mined.

Note 1. The industrial index requirements of mineral deposits are determined according to DZ/T 0339 according to different exploration stages or mine geological work stages.

Note 2. The symbiotic minerals are divided into homogeneous symbiotic minerals and heterogeneous symbiotic minerals.

3.2 Associated minerals

Those that occur with the main minerals and paragenetic minerals (3.1) in the ore body have not reached the industrial index requirements of the mineral deposit, or have reached the industrial index Minerals that can be economically recycled and utilized when mining main minerals and symbiotic minerals (3.1) as required by the standard but the scale of resources does not have individual mining value.

Note 1. Including minerals that can be produced separately in the process of ore processing and dressing, minerals that can be enriched in concentrates and a certain product to meet the valuation standard, and mineral products Other minerals that can be recycled in the subsequent treatment process.

Note 2. For ore bodies (reservoirs) whose distribution space range is different from that of the main minerals, and have no separate mining value, but can be exploited and utilized together with the main minerals (such as deep brine in the exploitation of oil and gas resources), they are treated as associated minerals in the comprehensive exploration and evaluation work.

3.3 Useful component

Under technical and economic conditions within a certain period of time, mineral products can be produced independently, or components that can be enriched in mineral products.
