Chifengshan Gold, Silver and Lead Co., Ltd.Chifeng Shan Jin Yin Qian Co., Ltd. was established on May 24, 2011, with its registered address located in the Fenghuangshan Industrial Park, Balin Left Banner, Chifeng City, Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region. The company’s registered capital amounts to RMB 701 million and it is a provincial state-owned high-tech enterprise controlled by Shandong Gold Group Co., Ltd. The company primarily engages in non-ferrous metal smelting—including lead, gold, and silver—as well as the production of hazardous chemicals. Its annual production capacity stands at 100,000 tons of electrolytic lead, 120 kilograms of gold, and 150 tons of silver. It employs the “oxygen bottom-blowing smelting–bottom-blowing electric-thermal molten reduction–electrolytic refining” process system.
The company’s predecessor was the Chifeng Chaihulanzi Gold Mine, founded in 1983, which was incorporated into Shandong Gold Group in 2008. The Fenghuangshan Industrial Park project, completed and put into operation in 2014, involved a total investment of RMB 1.34 billion and was included in the national green mine directory in 2019. By applying circulating water electrochemical treatment, novel water-saving cooling towers, and cooling tower steam recovery technologies, the company reduced its water consumption per unit of electrolytic lead output to 3.18 m³/t, achieving an industrial water reuse rate of 99.7%; in 2024, it was recognized as a national water efficiency leader. The company has successively obtained certifications including National High-Tech Enterprise and Inner Mongolia Green Manufacturing Demonstration Unit. The Chifeng Shan Jin Yin Qian Co., Ltd. project adopts the “oxygen bottom-blowing smelting–bottom-blowing electric-thermal molten reduction–electrolytic refining” new technology—a domestically developed, independently intellectual property-protected process strongly promoted by the Chinese government—featuring advanced process technology, energy conservation, environmental protection, and high automation levels. Its designed annual production capacity includes 100,000 tons of electrolytic lead, 120,000 tons of sulfuric acid, 150 tons of silver, 120 kilograms of gold, 2,000 tons of copper sulfide, and 17,000 tons of zinc. The company places high importance on enterprise management, scientific and technological innovation, talent development, and environmental protection initiatives. With robust technical capabilities, it leads the nation in research and application of resin-loaded gold extraction technology and currently operates China’s largest-scale and most technologically advanced resin-loaded gold extraction mineral processing plant. In 2019, the company successfully entered the national green mine directory and has since received numerous honors, including National High-Tech Enterprise, Advanced Collective of China’s Gold Industry, Healthy Enterprise of the Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region, Level-II Standardized Construction Pilot Unit for Mineral Processing Plants in the Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region, “Standard-Leading Unit for High-Quality Development of China’s Mining Industry (2020 Annual),” and Vice-Chairman Unit of the Green Mine Promotion Conference.
