Mining in Taiwan : ウィキペディア英語版 | Mining in Taiwan Mining in Taiwan used to be a great industry, especially for sulfur, clay, gold and coal. Nowadays, Taiwan lacks natural resources for mining and relies on imports to meet its demand for minerals. The current mining industries in Taiwan are of small and medium size in terms of exploited minerals and the scale of mining, mainly focusing on marble and limestone for cement, stone and craft industries and sand and gravel for construction industries. Mining activities in Taiwan are regulated by the Department of Mines of the Ministry of Economic Affairs. ==History of mining== Mining activities in Taiwan began during Qing Dynasty rule when the island used to have more than 200 types of minerals. The main sources of minerals were the mountain regions where most Taiwanese aborigines resided, thus mining at that time was difficult and challenging. After the opening of a Taiwan port by the government, more Westerners came to the island for ship refueling. There was rampant stealing and illegal selling of coal during this era thus the government prohibited the activity. After a while, seeing that mining activities benefited the rich Taiwanese and that it could become a benefit for the Qing army, the government lifted the prohibition in the fear that Westerners would take the mines by force. Mining industries where then developed progressively by both the government and private sectors.
