China has discovered its first underwater gold mine, which is also the largest underwater gold mine in Asia, marking a major breakthrough in China's accelerated national precious metal exploration. The underwater gold mine is located near the coast of Laizhou, Shandong. The official has not disclosed its specific reserves. However, the Yantai Municipal Government revealed at a five-year plan summary meeting this week that this discovery has increased the proven gold resources in Laizhou to more than 3,900 tons, accounting for about 26% of the country's proven total. Laizhou's gold reserves and output are both the highest in China. This is the latest in a series of major gold exploration discoveries in China recently, indicating that China's gold resource reserves may be much higher than previously estimated.
