Data sharing mechanism of various mineral resources based on blockchain

© Higher Education Press 2020

Abstract Basins with various mineral resources coexisting and enriching often occupy an important strategic position. The exploration of various mineral resources is repetitive at present due to unshared data and imperfect management mechanism. This situation greatly increases the cost of energy exploitation in the country. Traditional data-sharing mode has several disadvantages, such as high cost, difficulty in confirming the right of data, and lack of incentive mechanism, which make achieving real data sharing difficult. In this paper, we propose a data-sharing mechanism based on blockchain and provide implementation suggestions and technical key points. Compared with traditional data-sharing methods, the proposed datasharing mechanism can realize data sharing, ensure data quality, and protect intellectual property. Moreover, key points in the construction are stated in the case study section to verify the feasibility of the data-sharing system based on blockchain proposed in this paper.

Introduction

The coexistence of various mineral resources is common. Instances of mineral resources coexisting in over 30 major sedimentary basins have been found worldwide. For example, coal gas, uranium, and oil coexist in the Western Siberian Basin of Russia; uranium, oil, and gas coexist in the Fergana Basin of Kazakhstan; and coal, oil, gas, and uranium coexist in the Karakum Basin of Turkmenistan. Basins with various mineral resources often occupy an important strategic position. In China, the Ordos Basin, Received December 18, 2019; accepted June 15, 2020

with a total area of 20  104 km2, contains many kinds of mineral resources. Its reserves such as coal, oil, natural gas, coal-bed methane, shale gas, uranium, and salt, all rank top in China, and it also contains bauxite, clay, limonite, geothermal and other resources. All in all, the Ordos Basin is an important energy and mineral resource enrichment area and supply base in China. The mechanism of symbiosis and interaction among various mineral resources is very complex. Moreover, the exploration of different mineral resources is carried out by different departments. The relationship among mineral rights is complex, and exploration methods have certain similarities and repeatability. This situation has greatly affected the construction and coordinated development of the national energy base. The key to realizing collaborative exploration among different mineral resources is data sharing. Data are the bases of mineral resource exploration. Data among different mineral resources are repetitive and similar, enabling data sharing among differen
