2022, Hanshou County has closely focused on the goal of annual output value of the whole sand and gravel industry of 2 billion yuan, highlighted the three major work priorities of "capacity improvement, market expansion and efficiency improvement", concentrated and worked hard, and achieved gratifying results in the stable and sustainable development of the sand and gravel industry. River sand
resources are the characteristic and advantageous resources of Hanshou County. In order to fully and effectively develop, the county sand and gravel industry development leading group has implemented an open and fair competition mechanism for mining enterprises, a standardized mining cost management and measurement mechanism, a precise and flexible market pricing and futures trading mechanism, and has set up sand and gravel cleaning companies, ship maintenance companies, water refueling companies and other excavation vessels and transport vessels. The mining capacity has been improved and the government revenue has been maximized. In 2022, the county produced 24 million tons of sand and gravel, realized sales revenue of 1.052 billion yuan, realized net income of 344 million yuan, and paid taxes of 195 million yuan.
Widening the field, focusing on development and tapping the potential
of mountain sand is an important potential resource in Hanshou County. Hanshou County Sandstone Industry Development Leading Group planned scientifically, organized meticulously and cooperated closely with all units, timely started the preliminary work of the county's sand resources development, completed the declaration, listing and transfer of the mining rights of Bainiu'an Slate Mine in Fengjiapu Town and Liujiahe-Wenwuqiao Village Sandstone Mine in Longtanqiao Town, and was successfully delisted by the county construction and investment company at the starting price. At present, we are organizing the work of clearing the land for the mine, and it is expected that it will be formally put into production in the first half of this year. The preliminary work of the development of the five mountain placers, which have been included in the planning by other provinces and cities, is also being carried out one after another, and it will be formally put into production this year and next year.
In order to further improve the utilization rate of sand and gravel resources and the added value of sand and gravel products, the county sand and gravel industry development leading group regards the construction of machine-made sand projects as the top priority of its annual work. It has adopted several ways, such as introducing leading enterprises in the province to invest in construction, mobilizing local enterprises to build new ones, and encouraging Yichang high-speed double-track construction enterprises to build themselves, to vigorously develop the machine-made sand industry. Among them, the introduced Hunan Construction and Investment Group invested 400 million yuan to build a machine-made sand project with an annual output of 4.5 million tons and an annual output value of 360 million yuan in Xiaofanzhou Village, Canggang, which has completed the approval of construction land, hardening of external roads, leveling of site land, temporary housing construction and other work, and is carrying out the declaration and flood assessment of the construction of distribution centers. It is expected to be completed and put into operation in the first half of this year.
On March 4, Hanshou County Shunxin Cleaning, Hanshou Jingjiang Environmental Protection Technology, Hanshou County Jiameng Ship Maintenance, Hanshou County Shengxiang Building Materials and other four major companies were unveiled and established in the mining area.
On September 23, the mechanism sand project in Canggang Town officially started construction.
In order to standardize the market in the county, we should take the lead of the county rectification office and the county governance office, and participate in the county market supervision and administration Bureau to crack down on illegal mining, illegal operation and illegal transportation of sand and gravel, ban one illegal production and operation household, shut down five unlicensed sales outlets, and strengthen the market. 406 overloaded transport vehicles were investigated and 9327.5 tons of sand and gravel were unloaded, which effectively curbed illegal mining, selling and transportation of sand and gravel, and maintained the order of sand and gravel production and operation in the county. In order to open up the market outside the county, the county sand mining office dispatched more than 10 marketing personnel to Changsha, Wuhan, Jiangxi, Anhui, Zhejiang, Shanghai and other places to establish marketing outlets, collect market information, expand sales channels, regularly adjust sand and gravel prices, timely release, and more than 50 sand and gravel sales companies in large and medium-sized cities along the Yangtze River and coastal areas. Hanshou has become the largest supplier of sand and gravel products in the province and the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River.
In 2023, the key year to achieve the goal of the 14th Five-Year Plan, the leading group of sand and gravel industry development in Hanshou County will closely focus on the working goal of "annual output value of sand and gravel industry chain of 3 billion yuan, net income of 600 million yuan and tax of 500 million yuan", and on the basis of consolidating and improving the efficiency of river sand, highlight the development of mountain sand and mechanism sand projects. Ensure that two mountain placer mines and two machine-made sand projects are put into full operation within the year, and do a good job in the preliminary work of the development of five new mountain placer mines, laying a solid foundation for building a 10 billion pillar industry of sand and gravel at the end of the 14th Five-Year Plan.
