Finally, the focus of the search for diamond mines was on Linyi, and a special organization, the 809 Geological Team, was established. \ x0d \1965,809 team finally made a new discovery in Mengyin, northwest of Linyi. \ x0d \1August 24th, 965 is a date that should be recorded in the geological history of China. It is in this ditch, which looks different from any ditch where kimberlite was found abroad, that the first kimberlite vein in China was discovered, ending the history that there was no primary diamond mine in China. \x0d\ 1966, the construction of the first primary diamond mine in China began in changmazhuang, where the 809 team discovered kimberlite, which was officially put into production in 1970, that is, the building materials mine 70 1. \x0d\ Building Materials 70 1 Mine (formerly Mengyin Diamond Mine) is located in Changma Township, Mengyin County, Shandong Province. It is the first large primary diamond mine in China. It was founded in August 1966. It turned out to be led by the Ministry of Building Materials Industry. 1972 handed over to Linyi, Shandong. 1February, 1993, it belongs to China Nonmetallic Mining Corporation and is a directly affiliated enterprise. \x0d\ Kimberlite pit of building material "70 1" mine covers an area of 1 10 mu and is1/0 m deep. It is the largest primary diamond mine in China and even in Asia. \x0d\ Mine construction is divided into Phase I and Phase II projects, all of which are invested by the state, with a total investment of 37.96 million yuan, covering an area of 1.764 mu and a total construction area of 1.88 million square meters. There are 588 employees. Shengli 1 pillar is currently being mined. The total ore quantity of this pillar is 429 1.350 tons, the industrial diamond reserve is 4572380 carats, and the average grade is 672.3 1cl/m3. The mining area is located in Chengguan Town of Mengyin County, Changma Township and Wutai Township of Pingyi County, with a length of more than 30 kilometers from east to west. Over the past 40 years, the mine has produced nearly 1 10,000 carats of diamond products for the country, and created and accumulated rich diamond mining and transportation technology and experience. \x0d\ Diamond resources are rich in reserves and high in grade, and gem-grade large-particle diamonds are increasing year by year. 1983, Mengshan No.1 diamond weighs 1 19.0 1 carat; 19 1, Mengshan No.2 diamond weighs 65.57 carats; The Mengshan No.3 diamond weighs 67.03 carats, which has attracted the attention of diamond experts and merchants at home and abroad. \ x0d \ 2005 August 2005, Linyi Municipal People's Government declared and the Ministry of Land and Resources approved the establishment of Yimeng Diamond National Mine Park in Shandong Province, which is the only diamond mine park in China, the first national mine park in the province, and Kimberly Park in Yimeng Mountain National Geopark in China.
