Xi’an Mineral Resources Research Center actively explores and practices green geological exploration work technical methods for solid mineral geological survey（exploration） projects underway， and adopts specific measures such as applying full hydraulic crawler drilling rig and portable modular drilling rig to implement “ulti-holes from one site”， utilizing the backpack drill to implement “drilling instead of trenching” in accordance with local conditions， selecting environment-friendly drilling fluid， purifying and treating waste mud， and controlling temporary land occupation. Compared with the traditional drilling site size， the land footing area has been reduced by 80% to 85%， the construction of temporary access roads has been reduced by 60% to 65%， and the reclamation for farm land and green has reached more than 80%. Analysis of the cost of green exploration shows that the total cost of labour， the compensation for temporary land （green crop）， green environmental protection materials and restoration and greening has been reduced by about 40%. Finally， the support measures for green survey work are explored and practiced with suggestions put forward for the next step of green exploration work， which provides positive guidance for strengthening the concept of green exploration work， improving relevant systems and regulations， and stimulating the vitality of green exploration work.
