These mines are geographically distributed as follows:
One in Hulunbuir, with an annual output capacity of 3 MT
One in Xilingol, 1.2 MT
One in Hohhot, 0.6 MT
Six in Ordos, totaling 4.8 MT
One in Alxa League at 1.8 MT per year
Among them, only one was newly constructed with capacity of 1.2 MT per annum, eight technically innovated with capacity totaling 7.2 MT and one industrial upgrading of 3.0 MT.
