Since the country's opening to the world, China's rapid economic growth has resulted in strong demand for a wide variety of mineral commodities. During the same period, China's mineral production increased sharply. China's increased mineral production and demand affected the worldwide availability of minerals and metals, the market prices, and trade. Ministry of Land and Resources of China (MLR) planned to build as many as 10 strategic mineral reserve, including reserves of aluminium, copper, manganese, uranium, and other mineral that the country urgently needed. In white paper of China's mineral resources, China is planning the mineral resources conservation and its reasonable utilization, domestic supply increase of resources, activation of cooperative development with foreign partners, balance in resources development and environment conservation, and sustainable resources management as the mineral resources policies for the China's economic development.

Given that China's resource research, exploration and development and resource economy policies are closely related to Korea's industrial competitiveness in the field of global mineral energy resources, it is important to establish the domestic and overseas resource development strategies. In 2020, China will revise and set standards for mineral resources to ensure efficiency in exploration and development and storage management. China's Ministry of Natural Resources has established the National Mineral Resources Plan (2021-2025), aiming to achieve national goals and strategies, and local governments at all levels are also establishing and implementing regional mineral resources plans. As a result, the supervision and management of geological mineral exploration activities have been strengthened, and the safety of industrial production management in the field of geological mineral exploration and development has been strengthened. China has developed guidelines for high-quality geological exploration, surveying and mapping, improved the level of geological mineral exploration and strengthened the mining supervision and management system. According to China's standardization of mineral resources such as solid mineral resources and petroleum gas mineral resources, a new standard system for resource management will be established in China to improve scientific understanding, rational management and utilization.

한동안 일본의 급성장 수출경제는 멈출 수 없는 것처럼 보였었다. 그러나 이제 지난 10년간 경제가 후퇴하면서 그 희생을 치르고 있다. 제조업 전 분야가 하락세를 면치 못하고 있거나, 기껏해야 현상 유지함으로서 결국 광물 소비량에 영향을 미치고 있다. 대규모 석회석 백운석 자원, 상당한 벤토나이트 및 납석 자원, 그리고 소다회, 융합광물(fused minerals) 등의 합성 원료를 제외하면, 일본에는 규모 있는 광물자원이 거의 없다. 광물자원의 부족과 최근의 엔고 현상 때문에 일본은 중국과 같은 나라의 주요 광물 수출 시장이 되고 있다.

광물자원 평가지침은 지역 및 국가에 따라 사용되는 지침서는 다소 차별적이지만 대체적으로 유사하다. 그 중에서 호주의 JORC 코드와 UN에서 작성된 UNFC 지침이 가장 많이 이용된다. 광물자원평가와 관련된 기술보고서 작성의 경우 국제적으로 통용되는 지침서를 근간으로 작성되어야 대외적으로 인정받을 수 있어 이에 대한 이해가 요구된다.

수천 년 전부터 인간생활에 이용되어온 일라이트-운모는 다른 광물자원에 비하여 사용량은 많지 않지만, 요업, 도료, 종이, 건축용 재료, 화장품 소재 및 전자부품과 전기 재료 등 여러 산업 분야에 널리 사용되고 있다. 일라이트-운모는 광물학적으로 같은 계열의 광물군임에도 불구하고 산출상태, 입도 및 용도의 차이에 따라 다른 광물자원으로 취급되고 있다. 특히 국내에서 일라이트는 용어상의 혼란과 불명확한 법정 등록광종 때문에 효율적인 자원관리와 연구개발이 곤란한 실정이다. 그러므로 일라이트를 비롯한 점토광물 자원에 대한 광업법규상의 개선과 제도적 정비가 시급히 요구된다. 국내에서 개발되고 있는 일라이트-운모의 광석 유형은 그 광물상과 산출상태에 따라 페그마타이트상 백운모, 운모편암상 백운모, 납석상 일라이트 및 점토상 일라이트로 구분된다. 일라이트와 운모는 서로 다른 용도로 사용되고, 그 용도에 따라 그 품위 및 품질 개념이 다르다. 일라이트-운모 광석의 품위 및 품질 면에서 가장 기본적인평가방식은 (1) 육안 및 편광현미경 관찰, (2) X-선회질 분석 및 (3) 화학분석인 것으로 생각된다. 특히 리트벨트법을 응용한 X-선회질 정량분석법은 일라이트의 품위를 산정하는데 유력한 수단이 될 수 있을 것으로 여겨진다. 국내 일라이트-운모 자원의 자원잠재성과 부가가치를 향상시키기 위해서는 광석에 대한 정확한 품위 평가를 바탕으로 가장 적절한 이용 분야를 모색해야 할 것으로 판단된다.

In Australia & Canada, architectural rock and aggregate are one of the mineral resources, and related data and information provided integrated with them. In these countries, the provided data and information, through the information system of local government and national geological survey organizations, are interactive maps, geological and thematic maps, exploration data set, 3 dimension geological models, minning rights status, survey reports and related papers etc. However, in case of Korea, aggregate and architectural rock are not assigned as the kind of mineral resources in accordance to domestic mining law, and related geological data and information are not provided from comprehensive mineral information system established in public geoscience organizations. And the administrative and informative management are conducted separately through the different governmental organizations such as Ministry of construction, Korea forest service, geoscience institute & Korea Mine & Reclamation Corporation. For securing the supply of architectural rock and aggregate resources, and for the convenience of their development & utilization, the unified information system and governance reform for the related industry is needed.

There are more than 2000 minerals on earth, and it has been implemented in various fields such as environment, architecture, livestock, chemistry, pharmaceuticals. Clay minerals are considered that they can change the physical and chemical properties through the adsorption and release of metal ions. Although domestic deposit of non-metallic mineral resources is approximately ninety-six billion tons, its application is limited and has hardly been used in high value-added industries involved in medicine, medical supplies, and functional food materials. Bentonite and zeolite are already used for cosmetic purposes and also used in living goods and packing materials. However, direct application to the food industry is relatively very rare. Since records regarding the intake of minerals for foods and medicines are found in the old literatures, the utilization of non-metallic minerals as food materials appears to be highly profitable. According to the trends in patent research for food and mineral resources, the company plays a main role for the development of the food containing non-metallic minerals in USA, and the trends confirms that this industry is emerging. Here, we provided the information about domestic and foreign patent trend for food industries involved in mineral resources and the application of mineral resources in the food industries. We also covered the domestic regulation regarding usage of mineral resources in food, and proposed domestic application plan for food production using mineral resources in the future.
