Kashi discovered large underground water sources to meet millions of people need | Kashi | | water source ground water _ news

Xinhuanet, Wulumuqi, December 18 (reporter Liu Bing)-after two years of prospecting, second hydrogeological unit in Kashi of the Xinjiang geology and mineral Bureau found around two large groundwater resources, can millions of people meet in Marrakech, future development planning of urban water supply and water quality requirements.

Xinjiang geology and mineral resources Bureau of hydrogeology and engineering geology team engineer weihua II describes, from 2012 onwards, geological Brigade took on Kashi, China geological survey Bureau, economic development zone, hydro-geological environment survey and assessment work, at a distance of about 70 km southwest of Kashgar, wuluate River, 70 kilometers south of the rivers watershed, finding budget allows producing capacity of 300,000 cubic metres and 120,000 cubic meters of groundwater resources.

Weihua said two underground water reserves are expected to reach a large, extra large size, not only in line with the national drinking water standards, but also of strontium-containing mineral water, is expected to address the city district and State-level economic development zone in Kashi city of the future water shortages.

Kashgar in Xinjiang Kashgar in the Delta plain of the upper, is a classic Desert Oasis city, at present, the city's population of 550,000 today, more than 200,000 cubic meters of water. City land resources Bureau Director Lei Chuan said that due to the geological structure and other reasons, Kashi uses groundwater sulphate, hardness, for a long time problem of mine water quality objectives in exceedance.

According to the plan, by 2020, the city will be developed into the urban area of more than 100 million square kilometers and a population of medium sized cities, pollution-induced water shortage is expected to reach 120,000 daily to address water resources problems looming.

新疆喀什发现大型地下水源地 可满足百万人需求|新疆喀什|水源地|地下水_新闻资讯

　　新华网乌鲁木齐12月18日电（记者刘兵）经过两年时间勘探，新疆地矿局第二水文地质大队在新疆喀什周边发现两处大型优质地下水资源，可满足喀什未来发展成百万人口城市的供水规划和水质要求。

　　据新疆地矿局第二水文工程地质大队高级工程师乃尉华介绍，自2012年起，地质大队承担了中国地质调查局关于喀什经济开发区水文地质环境的调查评价工作，在距离喀什市区西南约70公里的乌鲁阿特河流域、南70公里的库山河流域，发现概算日允许开采量30万立方米和12万立方米的地下水资源。

　　乃尉华说，这两处地下水资源储量预计达到大型、特大型规模，不但符合国家饮用水标准，而且还是含锶型矿泉水，有望解决喀什市区及喀什国家级经济开发区未来城市缺水问题。

　　喀什市地处新疆喀什噶尔三角洲平原中上部，是一座典型的沙漠绿洲城市，目前，全市人口55万，日用水20万立方米以上。喀什市国土资源局局长雷川表示，由于地质结构等原因，长期以来喀什使用的地下水存在硫酸盐、硬度、矿化物等水质指标超标问题。

　　根据规划，到2020年，喀什市将发展成城区面积100平方公里、人口百万以上的中型城市，预计水质型缺水将达到每日12万方，解决水资源问题迫在眉睫。
