Mineral Deposits in Lào Cai

    Đinh Đại |

    To date, many mineral mines in Lào Cai have had to cease operations due to the failure to complete the necessary legal procedures.

    According to the report of the Lào Cai Provincial People's Committee on the socio-economic development situation in the first six months of 2024, most mining projects have encountered difficulties in land clearance and legal procedures related to land use. Some others have been suspended due to financial imbalance or difficulties in adjusting technology and handling emergencies, resulting in the cessation of operations.

    Present at the Dong Nam Lếch iron ore mine (exploited by Lào Cai Mineral Processing and Trading Joint Stock Company), the second iron ore mine located in Sơn Thủy Commune in early August, observations by PV show that the mine is currently in a state of dormancy. The piles of raw ore are not being sold outside.

The raw ore extracted is as high as a mountain, but it cannot be sold.
    The road leading to the mine has no vehicles or workers operating, only one security guard is stationed at the entrance.
    Observations show that the project is still only at the stage of compensating land for local residents, without any machinery or mining activities taking place. The trees of local residents cover the mountain. According to investigation, the reason the mineral resource mine cannot be exploited is due to difficulties in land clearance and legal procedures related to land use. The road leading to the mine is deserted, with no vehicles or people, only one security guard is stationed at the entrance. The reason for the cessation of operations is due to difficulties in legal procedures and land use.

    Regarding the Graphit Bảo Hà mine (Bảo Yên District) with a reserve of approximately 3.1 million tons, despite being licensed, Lào Cai Song Da Mineral Company has yet to conduct any mining or ore processing activities.
    Regarding the Sin Quyền copper mine (Bát Xát District, Lào Cai), currently the largest copper mine in Vietnam with a total reserve of approximately 53.5 million tons of ore. The Sin Quyền Copper Mine, Lào Cai - Vimico is a subsidiary of the TKV Mineral Group, with a total mining capacity of 2.5 million tons of ore per year. However, observations show that mining activities at this site are also proceeding at a slow pace, with many heavy machinery in a state of inactivity. The reason is that the mine is in the process of extending its mining license and is facing difficulties in land clearance, so related projects for waste disposal infrastructure have not been implemented.

    Mrs. Đỗ Thị Minh (Cốc Mỳ Commune, Bát Xát District) shared: “This copper mine has been operating for over 20 years, but it is currently operating at a slow pace due to the need for a new mining license. Local residents, including myself, are located in the polluted area and are subject to relocation to make way for the mine's waste disposal site. However, we have not been able to move for the past three years.”

    Observations by PV at the Quý Xa iron ore mine show that the mine still has a reserve of approximately 100 million tons of ore. This is one of the largest and highest-quality iron ore mines in Southeast Asia. The area is currently in a state of abandonment and desolation.
    In fact, there is no one monitoring the ore export area. The piles of raw ore have been standing for a long time. Mrs. Trần Thu Hà (owner of a convenience store in Sơn Thủy Commune, Văn Bàn District) said: “The Quý Xa iron ore mine has been inactive for nearly two years. When it was still operating, it created many jobs for local laborers, with salaries ranging from 8-10 million VND per month. I also sold more goods. However, now many people have to find other jobs to make a living, and my store is not doing well.”

    Speaking with PV Newspaper, Mr. Lương Văn Điệp, Chairman of Sơn Thủy Commune People's Committee (Văn Bàn District), said: “The Quý Xa iron ore mine stopped operating in 2022, while the Dong Nam Lếch iron ore mine stopped in 2021. When they were still operating, these mineral resource mines created many jobs for local laborers. However, since they have stopped operating, local laborers have had to find other jobs to make a living.”

    According to Mr. Điệp, these mineral resource mines pay taxes directly to the province, so the commune does not manage them and does not know the reason for their cessation of operations. “Local laborers very much want these mines to operate again so they can continue working. This will provide them with a source of income without having to look for jobs elsewhere.” - Chairman of Sơn Thủy Commune People's Committee informed.

    Regarding gold mining projects, it is known that Lào Cai Gold Company in Minh Lương Commune, Văn Bàn District, Lào Cai Province is currently also closed and inactive. The reason is that the company owes taxes to the state and does not meet environmental regulations, so it has not been licensed to mine again.

    The Sa Phìn gold mine, managed by Lào Cai Nhẫn Company, is also in a similar situation, having to stop operations. In May 2024, the company's application for a mining license extension was returned due to insufficient information for evaluation. The General Department of Geology and Minerals of Vietnam requested the company to correct and supplement the information according to the comments at the file review form. Therefore, the mine is still closed until the present time.
