The main cause of land subsidence was announced in Iran – | Iranian and world news

According to RCO News Agency, Dariush Ismaili said that Iran is ranked fifth in the world with about $ 1.5 trillion in natural resources, including oil, gas and natural resources, about 5 % of this mineral resources. It is more than 1,5 billion dollars of mineral raw materials inside the land, which is very significant if these materials are extracted and processed and received coefficients above 1.

According to the Geological Survey and Mineral Exploration Organization, he pointed to the exploration activity of the Geological Survey of the country in the Kurdistan area: “Practical geology and 2 exploration projects in three layers of geology, economic geology and geochemistry with over $ 1 billion. Toman was made for about 2,000 square kilometers.

Ismaili noted: At the cost of 2 gold anomaly, 2 copper anomalies, 2 iron ore anomalies and 2 anomalies of lead and zinc and manganese were identified that if we want to sell and sell it for the private sector and the private sector It will certainly be valued at over $ 6 trillion, and this shows that focusing on exploration and minerals like seed sprinkling and reaping it will be several times what we spend.

The head of the Geological Survey and Mineral Exploration Organization, in response to a question as to whether we can still hope to be discovered in Iran and we have advanced tools and tools for point -to -point exploration. The look was up -to -date and there was no medium -term and long -term look in the mining sector, according to which the main explorations made were surface discoveries, and we have never paid attention to the depth discoveries.

Deputy Minister Semit Continuing: Accordingly, the major discoveries in the country were superficial discoveries and we have never made deep discoveries, and today, through the modern method, we can study almost all the depths of the earth and draw on the map, the most important of which is conducting aerial geophysics studies. The flight of helicopters shows us the data in the ground and underground reserves.

He said that we have only had only 5,000 kilometers of air physics flights in the past five years, stating: The Geological Survey and Minerals Organization will have 5 million kilometers of linear flight during the five -year development plan, covering approximately two -thirds of the country and we will cover us. We are doing this in this organization, and with the planning of about three years we will have this amount of geophysical harvest.

Ismaili continued that the flight distance was about 1.5 kilometers before the revolution: We will bring what is inside the land with aerial intervals of 2 meters on the map, which requires about 2 trillion tomans and if this Cost will have high income.

The subsidence occurs due to unnecessary harvesting of groundwater resources

The head of the Geological Survey and Mineral Exploration Organization went on to say about the issue of subsidence and its association with exploration studies and harvesting of mineral reserves. Is.

He said that we are facing a water balance between Iran and the world, adding that the annual rainfall in Iran is about one -third of the world’s land and about 2 mm against 2 mm is the average rainfall in the world.

Ismaili continued: In the groundwater potential, we are ranked No. 2 and surface water, and unfortunately ranked fifth in harvesting and consumption. Our country is 3.5 percent of the land, while the water potential is about 2 percent compared to the entire continent.

Natra 2 billion cubic meters in the country’s water

Deputy Minister Semit By saying that Natra Water in the country’s aquifers is currently 2 billion cubic meters of water, saying: “Our harvesting of the country’s aquifers has been imported more than 2 billion cubic meters in recent years, causing cavities inside. The land is the most important cause of the subsidence.

Water consumption movement in the country

The head of the country’s Geological Survey and Mineral Exploration Organization noted: “We give the authorities of the country that if the water harvesting continues, the subsidence will be the most serious danger to our land.”

Adjusted, according to him Natra Energy, electricity and gas, though very difficult, can be offset over a few years, but for a few years, but for a few years Natra Water cannot do so, and it takes years for our aquifers to be full of water and return to its original state.

Deputy Minister Semit The Geological Survey and Mineral Exploration Organization, on the orders of the First Vice President, is preparing a plan called Water consumption movement in the country That is, we hope to be operational soon and prevent more in the country that has threatened many cities.
