Why can a ruin on the Gobi in Qaidam be called a land of glory ?

Because it is a cornucopia of China, in terms of topography and landform characteristics, it looks like a frontier and a hinterland, there are no birds flying in the sky, there is no grass growing on the ground, and the wind is particularly strong. Although this is a vast Gobi, it is a cornucopia of fame. In addition to having a large amount of salt, it also has the most valuable oil resources.

Therefore, when New China was first established, it needed to develop the economy, so it sent a large number of people to look for treasures there, and it was called the land of glory.

There are a lot of mineral resources there, there are dozens of minerals, which are the top in the country, and there are also oil, coal, mines, and other mineral resources such as management. It occupies one-fifth of China, which is not only rich in minerals, but also has a particularly beautiful Yadan landform. It also opened the earliest oil field in China.

Although he is just a small town in the middle of nowhere. But it has sparked generations to go there and put down roots. The first people to go took a bag of luggage and a pot and went there.

It was only after a few years that four oil wells were finally drilled. When the oil was first drilled, it was sprayed for three days in a row. More than 800 tons were sprayed in one day.

Since then, the oil field there has become one of the four major oil fields. But at that time, there was no oil to be loaded, and the oil produced could not be shipped. So they sent people to surround the oil fields into a sea.

There are also birds that fly on it thinking it is a lake, but they go down and get stuck to their bodies. With the discovery of the oil field, many more people gathered there, and their families followed.

But then when the resource was exhausted, another part of the Qaidam Basin took its place. In fact, the earliest city in the Qaidam Basin was not Lenghu, but a place called Laomangya. It is called a tent city, because there is no condition to build houses, and everyone lives in tents.

So it was a city with only tents. At its peak, there were more than 3,000 tents and 20,000 people lived there. So when people left later, there was nothing left there, not even ruins.

Later, after everyone left, it became a dead city.

The Qaidam Gobi Desert is a barren land, but it is also a famous "cornucopia" in China, in addition to a large amount of salt, it also contains valuable oil and gas resources deep underground. Heroes are in the fourth, and their reputation is all over the world; When the east wind is strong, the oil dragon flies after the waves. "The Qinghai Petroleum Administration erected a monument to commemorate the first oil well, which supported the glory of Qaidam Petroleum.

1 Lenghu has rich mineral resources, it not only has a spectacular and magnificent Yadan landform, it is worth mentioning that one of the earliest oil fields in the Republic was excavated here, so it is also a small Gobi city that prospers because of oil, it is the place where the youth and ideals of several generations take root and sprout, and it is also the second hometown that haunts the dream.

2. The Qaidam Basin is rich in mineral resources, and there are currently 39 proven minerals, among which potassium, sodium, magnesium, lithium, boron and other chemical mineral resources have an advantage in the country, and other resources include oil and gas, coal, iron ore and non-ferrous metals, accounting for about 93% of the potential value of mineral resources in Qinghai Province.

It accounts for about 16% of the total potential value of mineral resources in the country.

Because the basin is very rich in resources, including mineral deposits, as well as oil, salt and so on.
