Building green mines is an inevitable requirement for the implementation of ecological civilization construction and high-quality development in the mining industry. The development concept runs through the entire process of mineral resource utilization and protection, guiding mining enterprises to adopt environmentally friendly, resource-efficient, low-energy-consuming and The use of less technology, processes and equipment will minimize the ecological disturbance of the mining area and surrounding environment caused by resource development, and focus on building a scientific and technological A new model of green development in the mining industry with high output, low resource consumption and less environmental pollution. This document is based on the requirements of ecological civilization construction, green development and "dual carbon" action, combined with the production rules of mines, and based on comprehensive and systematic principles. Therefore, general requirements for green mine evaluation that meet the needs of mining development should be established. General Rules for Green Mine Evaluation

1 Scope

GB/T 44823-2024 sets the general principles for assessing a green mine. China has run a green mine programme for over a decade with sector-specific rules issued by different ministries and provinces, and this standard is the common frame beneath them, so that a coal mine, a metal mine and a quarry are scored against the same structure even where the thresholds differ. The standard sets the general principles and general requirements, then the assessment of the mining itself, of resource utilisation covering ore dressing recovery and comprehensive utilisation, of the green and low carbon performance covering intensive land use, energy saving, carbon reduction, source prevention and waste disposal and discharge, of ecological restoration, and of the technological innovation, digitalisation and community relations expected of a mine, together with the scoring and grading and the form of the assessment report. It takes effect on 1 February 2025.

This document stipulates the overall principles and general requirements for green mine evaluation, as well as the principles of mining, resource utilization, green and low-carbon, and ecological restoration. Requirements in terms of restoration, scientific and technological innovation and standardized management, mine appearance and evaluation. This document is applicable to mines that have been put into operation and serves as an overall guide for the industry, local governments or mines to formulate green mine evaluation standards or implementation details.
