Distribution characteristics and resource utilization strategies of burnt rock in Xinjiang region

In order to study the rational disposal and resource utilization of burnt rock in Xinjiang region, the geographical distribution characteristics and geological background of production of burnt rock in Xinjiang were analyzed, and the industrial chain layout model of resource utilization of burnt rock was put forward. The countermeasures of disposal and resource utilization of burnt rock were expounded, and the further development and utilization of burnt rock resources were prospected. The results show that the burnt rock resources in Xinjiang present the distribution characteristics of "more in the north and less in the south", which are generally distributed in large contiguous areas or along the edge of mountains. The burnt rock has the potential of water storage and tourism resources due to its unique landform and developed pores. The rich mineral elements in the burnt rock solid waste can realize comprehensive resource utilization in building materials, high-performance materials and mineral additives. The extraction of valuable elements, the preparation of chemical products and the indicator of prospecting are the development direction of resource utilization of burnt rock in Xinjiang in the future.
