Iron Ore Mining, Processing, and TradeIron ore mining is the cornerstone of Hainan Mining since its establishment.Shilu Iron Ore Mine, located in Changjiang Li Autonomous County, Hainan Province, was once renowned as “Asia’s No. 1 Iron Ore Mine”, due to its exceptional resource reserves and premium ore quality.
Put into official production in 1957, Shilu Iron Mine is one of the most experienced mines in iron ore mining, dressing and processing in China. It has made significant contributions to the development of China's iron and steel industry and the economic construction of Hainan Province, and ranked 20th among China's Top 50 Metallurgical Mines in 2025.

Finished Ore Sales Volume in 2025Shilu Iron Mine has pioneered the innovative application of various mineral processing technologies in China, including high-intensity magnetic separation, gravity separation, jigging, and photoelectric separation, as well as iron ore suspension magnetization roasting technology. These practices have ensured that the efficiency of comprehensive resource utilization remains at a high level. Its main finished products are lump ore and iron ore concentrate, which are supplied to iron and steel enterprises for smelting into pig iron and steel products. Among them, lump ore features a relatively high silicon content, enabling it to replace silica as an acidic ingredient in blast furnace burden. This optimizes blast furnace conditions and reduces the overall cost of ironmaking.

Hainan Mining’s wholly-owned subsidiary, Hainan Mining International Trade, serves as a bridge between overseas mines and domestic iron and steel producers. It conducts targeted international trade of bulk commodities such as imported iron ore and manages resource procurement in a unified manner. Meanwhile, it carries out global sourcing to meet raw material demand for its blended ore business.

Rugao Changhua River Mining Co., Ltd, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Hainan Mining, is based in Jiangsu Zhonglin’s Rugao Port Area, benefiting from strong port storage and transportation advantages. The company operates a blending ore production line, offering customized blended ore products for steel mills by scientifically mixing ores to meet specific blast furnace needs. It also provides tailored technical services and after-sales support.

Xinda Industrial, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Hainan Mining, utilizes low-grade run-of-mine ore from Shilu Iron Mine to produce high-quality sand and aggregates through manufactured sand production technology, with products sold across Hainan Island. It currently operates a production line with a designed annual capacity of 1 million tons.
