Abundant and profound natural treasures are reserved for years, waiting for sustainable exploitation.

HNG is a large river. Resources segment is the upstream of the river. The thriving and prosperity of HNG derives from the great power from the upstream which provides strong drive and guarantee for the Group's development. But resources are exhaustible. We are opposed to the pillage and wasting exploitation; we advocate constructing a resource-saving, environment friendly enterprise, safeguarding HNG's sustainable development along the track of circular economy.
HNG lies in Hunan Province¡ÂȘthe place reputed as "Hometown of nonferrous metals". It enjoys the resource advantages of nonferrous metals.

Tungsten (W)
Tungsten is a strategic resource. It has the features of high melting point, high rigidity, and high strength. It is widely applied in metallurgy, petroleum, mine, automobile, steel, mechanical processing, electronics, national defense, space and chemical industry.
HNG owns the largest tungsten resources reserve in the world. The reserve of Tungsten (WO3) accounts for 20% of the world, mainly scattered in Shizhuyuan Mine (reputed as "Nonferrous Metals Museum of the World") and the century old Yaogangxian Mine (known as "the fourth largest scheelite mine in the world").

Bismuth (Bi)
Bismuth is an immalleable metal. During its processing, no toxics are produced, it is called "green" metal and is widely used in medical, semiconductor, super conductor, fireproof materials, cosmetics, nuclear power, and storage battery.
HNG has the largest reserve of bismuth in the world. The reserve of bismuth is over 300,000 tons. The annual metal production of bismuth concentrates is 1000 tons.

Antimony (Sb)
Antimony is a glittering silver-white metal or half-metal which has features of metal and non-metal. It is widely used as fire retardant, dope of building, textile and bonding agent, battery, ceramics, chemicals, glass, fireworks and rubber materials etc.
HNG owns rich antimony reserve which is distributed at the hundred-year long Hsikwangshan Mine (known as "Antimony Capital of the World"). The annual metal production of antimony concentrates is nearly 20,000 tons.

Zinc (Zn)
Zinc is a silver-colored metal which is used in corrosion -proof, electricity conducting, heat conducting. It is of great importance in steel surface corrosion-proof, copper-tin-lead alloy, machinery building, construction materials and storage battery.
HNG has a considerable reserve of zinc resource. It is distributed in Huangshaping Mine and Shizhuyuan Mine.

Lead is a high-density grayish-blue metal with a good corrosion-proof and high malleability. It is of wide use in construction industry, military storage tank and pipeline, storage battery, electric cable shield, and radiation-proof.
HNG has a considerable reserve of lead resources. It is distributed in Huangshaping Mine and Shizhuyuan Mine.

Molybdenum (Mo)
Molybdenum is a silver-colored, hard, transitional metal. It is mainly used in alloy, hard steel, wearing-pressure-high temperature-resistant structure, aviation and space spare parts, steel rail and automobile spare parts.
HNG has large-sized Molybdenum mines. They are distributed in Shizhuyuan Mine,Yaogangxian Mine and Huangshaping Mine. The reserve of Molybdenum totals 140,000 tons. The annual metal production of Molybdenum concentrates is about 600 tons.

Copper (Cu), Tin (Sn), Fluorite (CaF2)
Apart from the above abundant nonferrous metal reserves, HNG has considerable reserve of copper, tin and fluorite. They are mainly distributed in Shizhuyuan Mine, Huangshaping Mine and Yaogangxian Mine.

Development of Overseas Resources
HNG actively carries out overseas resources development, holding shares of Compass Resources Co., Ltd. and Pakistan Duddar Lead-Zinc Mine. Meantime, HNG develops millions of tons of lead, copper, cobalt and nickel resources in Northern Territory of Australia with Compass Resources NL. Duddar lead and zinc mine owns aboundant lead and zinc reserve in Pakistan.
