Recently, at the construction site of the Chentaigou Iron Mine project of China Minmetals in the Anshan High-tech Zone, drilling, blasting, slag removal, and support work were underway, with workers each performing their duties and cooperating closely, presenting a bustling scene of construction.
"We are using a combined development method of 'vertical shaft + inclined belt conveyor shaft + auxiliary ramp,' which is the first ultra-deep shaft and ultra-large-scale 'double ultra' mining in China," said Zhou Zhiwei, deputy director of the Second Work Area. The Chentaigou Iron Mine project is one of the major central-local cooperation projects in the province. Construction started in June last year, and once the project reaches full production, it will produce 4.7 million tons of iron concentrate annually.
Anshan City is focusing on 150 key projects with a total investment of 88.09 billion yuan this year. Centering on key links such as procedure handling, factor guarantees, and problem resolution, from mid-February to the end of May, it is carrying out a "100-day sprint" action for key projects.
Giving full play to the leading role of officials, Anshan City has established special work teams led by municipal-level leaders and composed of relevant industry departments. Each municipal-level leader oversees 10 key projects, achieving full coverage supervision of the 150 key projects, providing full-process assistance and agency services for project procedure handling, and offering "nanny-style" and "shop-assistant-style" services, making every effort to clear obstacles to project implementation and helping projects achieve "acceleration."
Anchoring the annual investment promotion targets, seizing early opportunities and acting quickly, the main leaders of Anshan City took the lead in setting an example, with the four major leadership bodies concentrating on investment promotion. They established industry-chain investment promotion teams to guarantee factors, drew industry-chain investment promotion maps, precisely connected with leading enterprises and listed companies, and focused on key projects with strong "gold content," large "new content," and high "green content" to intensify investment promotion, promoting the transformation of investment promotion from "blind searching" to "orderly attraction" and from "emphasizing total volume" to "emphasizing quality."
Anshan City has also established a "traffic light" system for project procedure handling. Using the smart project management platform, projects with individual procedures not completed within 10 days past the deadline are given a "yellow light," and those not completed within 20 days past the deadline are given a "red light." Work "reminder notices" and "supervision letters" are issued regularly to force problem resolution and responsibility implementation.
In today's Anshan, a large number of high-quality projects have been implemented, started construction, and put into operation, and new development momentum is accelerating its gathering. Up to now, 542 projects with investment of more than 50 million yuan have started or resumed construction, with a total investment of 171.951 billion yuan. Among them, all 150 key social investment projects in the sprint have started or resumed construction. In the first quarter, fixed asset investment in Anshan City increased by 12.4% year on year, 3.1 percentage points higher than the provincial level and 7.9 percentage points higher than the national level.
