What Is a Primary Resource?
Resources refer to the collective term for various material elements such as material, financial, and human resources in a country or a certain area.

- In human economic activities, various resources are interconnected and restricted to form a resource system with a complex structure. Each resource has its own subsystem. Resource systems can be classified differently from different perspectives, such as nature and use.
- China's total water resources account for 7% of the world's total water resources, ranking sixth. But the per capita possession is only 2,400 cubic meters, which is 25% of the world's per capita water volume, ranking 119th in the world, and is one of the 13 poor countries in the world;
- China's forest area is 15.8951 million hectares, the country's forest coverage rate reaches 16.55 percent, and the forest volume is 11.27 billion cubic meters. Except Hong Kong, Macau and Taiwan, the area of planted forests is 46.667 million hectares, ranking first in the world;
- China's oil resources are about 104 billion tons, and natural gas resources are about 47 trillion cubic meters. Based on the analysis of oil and gas exploration in different types of basins, new reserve laws, and various methods, China's recoverable oil resources are estimated to be 15 billion to 16 billion tons, and recoverable natural gas resources are 100,000 to 140,000 cubic meters. According to the usual international classification criteria (the degree of oil and gas enrichment), China is one of the richer oil and gas resources among the 103 oil-producing countries in the world. The total amount of coal resources ranks first in the world. If only coal is burned, China's coal reserves can be burned by people around the world for about 100 years.
- First, the natural environment is fragile.
China's natural environment is inherently fragile and has been exploited for a long time in history. In addition to the huge scale and strong human activities in modern times, China's ecological environment has a low quality background and is vulnerable to damage. Therefore, it is even more urgent to implement a controlled natural resource development in China and establish a resource recycling system as soon as possible. Second, the natural resources are abundant and the per capita possession is low.
- On a per capita basis, China's per capita mineral resources are less than 1/2 of the world average. In addition, there are many poor mines in mineral resources and few high-grade mines. According to statistics, the proportion of iron, manganese, copper, and phosphorus-depleted ore in China is 97 0r6, 94 06, 65%, and 93, respectively. This is the average grade of proven reserves of minerals, and some are far below the average of foreign countries. Half the level. China's mineral resources are accompanied by many complex ores, and a single ore is rare, which increases the cost of mineral processing, metal separation and extraction.
Most natural resources are always limited. Taking non-ferrous metals as an example, China's rare earths, tungsten, tin, platinum, and antimony are dominant resources, but due to years of mining, some have already experienced a resource crisis.
- And the large amount of aluminum and copper ore, China's natural conditions are not good. China's bauxite is dominated by monohydrate bauxite, which accounts for 97.9 of total reserves. This type of ore is difficult to process and consumes high energy. China's copper mine reserves are seriously inadequate, with many poor mines, many mixed mines, and poor external conditions. Therefore, there is a clear contradiction between the development of a large number of minerals and the lack of natural resources.
- China's total resources are abundant, but its per capita possession is small, its overall quality is not high, and its distribution is uneven (characteristics summarized: large total, low per capita, low development level and low utilization rate). Performance: resource crisis, water crisis waste and improper use
- Many resources cannot be consumed or used in their original form. In order to transform them into more convenient and usable products, they must be processed. This is called
- Generally speaking, resources in economics refer to things that can benefit enterprises and society through use or directly. Such as land, people, equipment, plant, etc.
- Many modern enterprises organize their production and management in the form of project management. Resource management is an important component of project management. The resources in project management are more often referred to as "people", and can be used by project team personnel. It is also used to refer to project equipment that needs to be used in project management.
