4. Industry barriers

(1) Industry qualification barriers

Blasting technology involved in mining engineering construction is the core of blasting service industry in mining engineering construction. There are inherent risks in the blasting operation process, which cannot be completely avoided. Therefore, blasting construction units are required to complete specific blasting operations under the condition of ensuring safety and accuracy. The state implements a strict market access mechanism for blasting service enterprises, and the industry qualification standards are generally high.

According to the provisions of Article 21 of the Regulations on the Safety Administration of Civil Explosives promulgated by China, the units using civil explosives shall apply for the purchase of civilian explosives to the public security organs of the local people's governments at the county level, and submit the relevant materials including the License of explosive Operations units, after examination, if they meet the conditions, They can only be used after issuing a "Purchase Permit for Civil Explosives". The blasting operation unit shall meet the corresponding civil explosive storage, funds, personnel, special machinery and equipment and performance standards according to the "Qualification Conditions and management requirements of the blasting operation Unit", and can obtain the corresponding level of "blasting operation Unit License" after passing the audit. The mining project construction general contracting enterprise shall also obtain the corresponding level of mining project construction general contracting qualification in accordance with the "Regulations on the Administration of Construction Enterprise Qualification" and "Qualification Standards for Construction Enterprise" promulgated by the Ministry of Housing and Urban-Rural Development, before contracting the mine construction general contracting project within the scope of qualification license.

(2) Technical and talent barriers

The level of construction technology and technical personnel resources are the decisive factors for mining construction service enterprises to establish themselves in the market and industry. Whether the operation unit has mastered the most core blasting technology and designed an excellent construction plan, whether it can improve operation efficiency and reduce operation cost under the premise of ensuring safety and accuracy, and whether it has a mature process combining technology and equipment with industrialization are important factors for its success based on the entire mine service industry. And whether the talent with relevant technology is also an important factor for enterprises to win in the market competition. Therefore, the level of mining construction technology and the professional talents of mining and blasting technology constitute an important barrier for other industries to enter this industry.

(3) Capital and equipment barriers

One of the main business areas of mine construction explosive units is the field of mining and stripping in open pit mines. On the one hand, the mining cycle of large and medium-sized open-pit mining projects is generally long, and the daily expenditure is very large. Before receiving the settlement payment of each period, the construction unit often needs to meet the payment requirements with its own funds, and the strong financial strength is an important condition for the successful completion of the project by the construction unit. On the other hand, large and medium-sized open-pit mining projects also require the construction unit to have excellent performance and a high degree of automation of large-scale mining equipment, so it also requires the construction unit to have a strong financial strength to pay for the funds needed to purchase equipment.

(4) Experience barrier

The blasting service industry involved in mine construction is characterized by the completion of specific blasting construction operations under the condition of ensuring safety and accuracy, and failure usually causes serious consequences and impacts. Therefore, customers have high requirements on blasting operation units, especially blasting operation experience, because it is closely related to the completion degree of projects contracted by blasting operation units. For larger projects, only those companies with a high reputation and rich experience will be eligible to bid.
