A few years ago, in the barren mountains and ridges in Weibei, a chain of interests suddenly formed to make money by digging keels. Undercurrents surging and dangers are everywhere...
keel is a Chinese medicinal material, which is a fossil of the bones of ancient mammals, three-toed horses, rhinos, deer, cattle, sheep, etc. It has the effects of calming the mind, calming the liver and suppressing yang, and astringent and astringent.
As the demand for keels in the medicinal materials market continues to grow, resources are depleted sharply, and the conflict of demand is becoming increasingly serious. At present, the market price has been rising all the way, and the purchase price per kilogram has risen to more than 200 to 300 yuan.
Once some diggers have tasted the sweetness, especially relying on this kind of livelihood, they will take great risks and drill holes along the mountain, dig crazily, and gain benefits without any safety precautions.
often has a remote and sparsely populated area. Digging people travel thousands of miles to their destinations. They are relatively professional and have certain mining skills and experience. However, only a very small number of local people are indirectly involved in this mining activity.
This mining group is mostly composed of relatives, friends and family members. During the specific operation process, scattered mining is combined with organized and division of labor and coordination to solve the problem of food and accommodation on the spot.
also formed an illegal and illegal plundering of resources in which foreign digging personnel "eat meat" and local people "drink soup". Because it is profitable, there is a large-scale mining behavior. For them, the relatively high returns are too tempting!
Although it is engaged in the extremely difficult and dangerous "digging food in the soil" activity, it is essentially different from digging food in the traditional sense. An adult, whose daily income is several hundred yuan or even more than 1,000 yuan, is also a high return like digging gold in the soil.
They carried out remote mining through long distances, but they were already familiar with the special work with considerable returns. Even if they returned to their hometown with a full load, they still no longer returned to the "gold-in-gold" twice every once in a while, and they were unwilling to accept it.
Such uncertainties and complex components frequently come and go frequently. For a long time, a large number of soil excavations have been dug and dug, and some river ditches have been filled, resulting in many landslides and collapses, which have had a serious impact on the internal structure of the mountain, surface vegetation, natural environment, its own security and social security order.
The local government has been coordinating the public security, forestry, land, environmental protection and other functional departments to strengthen management measures, and strive to completely stop this unauthorized mining behavior, but the effect is not ideal.
also used excavators to dig soil to fill holes, cement concrete block hole openings and other measures to stop this mining phenomenon. However, after a period of stability, some diggers lie down at night and choose to avoid the original hole opening, dig holes again to find the original hole, and continue to engage in illegal mining activities.
Once, a sudden heavy rainfall caused a mountain torrent, and a large amount of mud and water were poured into the cave. Some local people were still picking residues in the cave. The father and son of the family were almost choked to death in the cave.
Fortunately, the crisscrossing caves were uneven and the flood did not completely flood the entrance. Only after the timely and effective search of firefighters, public security police, local governments, and village cadres, the father and son survived.
According to rumors, some people who specialize in digging have also suffered casualties caused by landslides, but they only communicated and negotiated privately.
In view of the outstanding potential safety hazards, the source management responsibilities of local rural groups were strengthened and implemented, and a combination of full-time and part-time patrol personnel was adopted, with significant results.
For mining personnel who have been discovered, they will immediately call the police and will be severely punished according to law. At the same time, communication and contact with regional governments with relatively concentrated external mining personnel and taking multiple measures to basically effectively solve the problem.
