Da Nang streamlines mining procedures to boost construction material supply

Da Nang city is prioritizing the acceleration of mineral extraction procedures to meet the growing demand for construction materials. The municipal People's Committee, led by Vice Chairman Tran Nam Hung, convened a meeting to address bottlenecks and shorten processing times for increasing mining capacity.

The city currently has 41 active mining permits for stone, sand, and fill dirt, with substantial reserves projected until the end of 2025. However, the extraction capacity at some mines does not match the available reserves or actual needs. Adjusting and increasing capacity, in line with the geology and mining law, is seen as crucial for supplying materials to the city's major projects.

The city wants mining operations, especially for common construction materials, to see a breakthrough this year.

Businesses have raised concerns about local shortages, as some mines prioritize supplying neighboring regions. To counter this, Da Nang is encouraging companies to expedite procedures for new mining rights and increase capacity at existing sites. The goal is to see a significant increase in mining activity this year, ensuring that all eligible mines are operational and those already working increase their output to meet the substantial local demand.

All eligible mines need to be put into operation, and mines currently in operation must increase capacity to meet the very large demand for materials in the area.
