What are the industrial and mining enterprises?

Industrial and mining enterprises include extractive industries (nonmetals and metals), processing industries (mainly industrial product processing) and smelting enterprises (metal smelting). Industrial and mining enterprises are collectively referred to as industry and mining industry. Both types of enterprises have specific products, but the difference is that the products of mining industry are more primitive, and mining industry also belongs to the industrial category, both of which belong to the secondary industry.

It is different from primary industry agriculture and tertiary industry service industry. For example, so-and-so iron mine belongs to mining industry, and its main product is iron ore, but it also belongs to industry, while so-and-so steel plant belongs to industry, and its product is to convert iron ore produced by iron ore into steel through blast furnace.

Basic characteristics of industrial and mining enterprises

1, which originated from the development of natural resources.

2. The development and utilization functions of industrial and mining resources are obvious, but other functions are weak.

3. The population structure is more male than female, with a large proportion of working population and a small proportion of minors and the elderly, especially in new industrial and mining areas.

4. The distribution of natural resources determines the distribution of industrial and mining areas, and most of them are scattered.

5. The ground subsidence caused by the exploitation of natural resources, the appearance of open pit mines, mines and dump sites have greatly changed the surface landscape of industrial and mining areas, and it is an important task for industrial and mining areas to restore and transform the surface morphology of mining areas.

6. Industrial and mining areas are located in rural areas, and the labor force mainly comes from rural areas.
