What is coal in China and iron in China?

Since the founding of New China, the name of "China Coal Capital" has changed several times. The earliest coal is Fushun, Liaoning, followed by Kailuan, Hebei; In 1980s, all the new coal in China rose again in Datong. In 2003, Ordos City, Mongolia jumped to the top of the national prefecture-level coal-producing cities with a coal output of 810.03 million tons, surpassing Datong City, an old coal capital in China.

At present, China does not have the title of Iron Capital, but Anshan City, Liaoning Province.

The so-called steel capital is the embodiment of political status and economic status. Anshan was liberated on February 1948 19 before liberation, and the construction of Angang started six months later. As an important economic base at that time, Northeast China's contribution to the country is self-evident. In the early 1950s, several big cities in Liaoning, such as Anshan, were all centrally managed.

Apart from its economic status, China is a poor country in iron ore, with little geological reserves and low iron content, while Anshan's geological reserves account for nearly a quarter of the national reserves.

190 1, Fushun started coal mining. Since then, Fushun has become the focus of the world. Fushun coal is famous for its high output and good quality. The dark "black gold" has brought wealth and glory to Fushun, and has contributed 654.38 billion tons of coal to the country only after the founding of the People's Republic of China.

Fushun is one of the earliest areas in China to bid farewell to the agricultural society, and its reputation as "coal capital" has been famous all over the country and even the world. Fushun's coal resources are on the verge of exhaustion, and the proportion of coal mines in Fushun's GDP is decreasing year by year. Some people say that "coal capital" has long been misnamed, but the fact that Fushun is the only coal capital named by the country remains unchanged.

In geographical knowledge, "Fushun" is always the standard answer of "coal capital". The joke of "steel is hard and coal is black" laments that * * * and the eldest son of China are no longer famous, and it is also an affirmation of the historical status of classic heavy industry cities such as Anshan and Fushun.
