On March 15, Ordos municipal natural resources bureau issued a mining permit to Inner Mongolia Mining (Group) Co's Liusangedan Mine.

It is Inner Mongolia's first permit for a mine with an annual production capacity of over 8 million metric tons since the Inner Mongolia Department of Natural Resources delegated the rights of permission to exploration, transformation, and mining to lower levels.

This permission will propel the development of Inner Mongolia Mining (Group) and support Ordos in building an energy base.
