The Historical Evolution of Changsha Mining and Metallurgy Research Institute

Changsha Research Institute of Mining and Metallurgy was founded in 1955. At that time, its purpose was to develop China's metal research and improve the level of science and technology, so as to effectively utilize China's natural mineral resources (especially in Central and South China) and cooperate with the national economic construction. After completion, it belongs to China Academy of Sciences, National Defense Science, Technology and Industry Committee, Ministry of Metallurgical Industry and State Metallurgical Industry Bureau. 1June, 1999, according to the spirit of relevant documents of the State Council, it was transformed into a large-scale scientific and technological enterprise directly under the central government and managed by the Central Enterprise Working Committee. It was officially registered in the State Administration for Industry and Commerce on May 15, 2000 and directly supervised by the State-owned Assets Supervision and Administration Commission of the State Council. June 5438+October 2009 10, with the approval of the State Council, Changsha Research Institute of Mining and Metallurgy was merged into China Minmetals Corporation, becoming its wholly-owned subsidiary and no longer listed in the list of central enterprises. At this point, the number of enterprises that SASAC has performed as investors has been adjusted from 135 to 132.

The research institute consists of 1 1 functional management departments and 6 directly affiliated units, with 17 subsidiaries and enterprises below subsidiaries. Among them, Jinrui New Materials Technology Co., Ltd. is a listed company initiated and established by the Institute as the main sponsor on 1999. 200 1, Jin Rui science and technology co., ltd was successfully listed and traded, and the share-trading reform was completed in April 2006. By the end of 2008, the group's main business income was 654.38+659 billion yuan, its profit was 765.438+0.5 billion yuan, and its total assets reached 2 billion yuan.

Changsha Institute of Mining and Metallurgy has gradually formed and established two major business systems: research on mineral resources development and comprehensive utilization (scientific research, design and engineering) and development and production of new materials. Regarding the development and utilization of mineral resources, there are four majors: mining, mineral processing, metallurgy and materials. Since its establishment, the Institute has been the main undertaking unit of the national science and technology project for comprehensive utilization of resources, and has played a key role in tackling key technical problems such as comprehensive utilization of associated resources of complex polymetallic mines, beneficiation of lean red iron ore and comprehensive utilization of ocean polymetallic nodules, and has achieved a large number of scientific and technological achievements. Among the technical advantages and characteristics formed, mineral processing specialty is particularly prominent, forming a systematic and complete experimental research system, with strong comprehensive research ability and engineering ability, and laying a leading position in the industry.
