Abstract: Global mineral resource patterns have undergone notable changes, facing complex issues, such as the safety of mineral resources, unclear domestic reserves, and unknown development and utilization status. Relevant units have conducted in-depth research and have obtained extensive and important results. We organized the publication of 12 articles, forming an album titled “Comprehensive evaluation of the ‘Full-scale Mineral Resources’ ”. The album includes three components: the systematic theory and technology of mineral resources, important metal mineral formation laws and development and utilization status, and evaluation of important mineral resource industry chain. This article provides a brief introduction to the articles included in the album, which have reference value for objectively understanding the mineral resource situation, exploration and development layouts, global resource allocation, and formulation of industrial development policies of China.
