Abstract

In this paper, the location quotient method is used to analyze and evaluate the status quo of mining development in Anhui Province, and determine the advantage ratio between the operating income of each sub-industry and the output of main mineral products in Anhui Province. The results show that the mineral resources follow-up processing industry is the main industrial sector supporting the growth of Anhui mining economy, but the advantages are not significant. Among the main mineral products in Anhui province, only copper and cement have advantages, while other mineral products have significant disadvantages. On this basis, the paper puts forward the concrete measures to promote the healthy development of mining industry in Anhui Province.
