Research On Mineral Development In Sichuan In Qing Dynasty

Mining is one of the most important production sectors in ancient China,which is closely related to social and economic development and people's life.In the Qing dynasty,the mining industry was mainly produced in the southwest.The research results of Yungui mining were fruitful,and Yunnan copper and Qian lead were famous throughout the country.Is adjacent to Yunnan-guizhou sichuan is one of the metal mineral resources are mainlydistributed in China,Sichuan is one of the core economic area of Chinesetraditional society,to the historical origins of modern mining development in Sichuan province to provide relatively clear.Shunzhi,kangxi,yongzheng and(1660-1735)were the early stages of the mining development in Sichuan province.During the reign of emperorQianlong(1735-1796),the peak period of the mining industry in sichuan.Jiaqing,Daoguang(1796-1850)was a transitional period for the development of Sichuan mining industry.For copper lead production,from qianlong to xianfeng years,in addition to Yunnan and Sichuan provinces,the two provinces of Yunnan and sichuan province were used to produce copper,and the other ten provinces were copper.Since Qianlong decade(1745),as the flourishing of Sichuan province copper,such as: the impressive JianChang north,the sand ditch,Li Xi,old hole groove,jia said the leopard ditch,such as plant,yield the highest when as many as two million jins,drum cast sufficient for Sichuan province,and thus no longer need to shopping Yunnan copper.And Sichuan province to a certain extent to meet the drum casting of the province,and also the association of Shanxi drum casting and the coordination of the Jingyun.In particular,the production of the newly opened up plant in Jiaqing was more than two million jin,making an important contribution to the transportation of the Yunnan province.This further indicates that sichuan province in theqing dynasty has certain advantages in casting money except yunnan province.Compared with copper production,the production of lead in Sichuan is very limited.Most of it relies on the purchase of lead from qian,which lasted for more than 100 years from Yongzheng to daoguang for 20 years.For mine management,compared with Yunnan "yunnan cloth prime minister-impressive host supervision-Dongchuan government charge-factory member management" management model,Sichuan mine management mode is more simple,direct return Jianchang crown,such not only to strengthen the supervision of mine and also facilitate timely grasp the actual situation of mine.
