我国原生汞矿行业现状及未来关停政策建议

我国原生汞矿开采历史悠久,原生汞在我国的需求量很大并被广泛使用,但汞矿的开采却带来了巨大的环境风险。目前,全球汞矿除我国和吉尔吉斯斯坦尚在生产外都已关闭。近些年,随着全球汞公约的签署及我国对重金属污染问题的高度重视,原生汞矿的开采和冶炼活动必将受到更加严格的监管,关闭原生汞矿已经成为大势所趋。本文分析了国内外原生汞矿开采及管理现状,结合我国用汞行业现状,从行政命令手段、经济刺激手段以及劝说鼓励手段等不同角度入手,提出了我国关闭原生汞矿政策建议。

Recommendations for the Status of Native Mercury Mining Industry and the Future Closedown Policy in China

China has a long history of primary mercury mining. Primary mercury is largely demanded and widely used, but the exploration of mercury ore has also brought about big environmental risks. By now, there is no primary mercury production all over the world except in China and Kyrgyzstan. In recent years, primary mercury exploration and smelting activities are supervised more strictly, followed by the signing of the global mercury convention and a great attention is paid by the Chinese Government. To close down mercury mining enterprises will be an inevitable trend. This article analyzed the status of primary mercury mining exploration and management in China, while considering the mercury use in China, and proposed a series of policy recommendations for the closing down of primary mercury mining enterprises in terms of executive order measures, economic incentive measures and persuasions and encouragement measures.
