During the "Tenth Five-Year Plan", the industrial growth rate has remained above double-digit for five consecutive years. At present, this is an important coal chemical industry base in the northwest of China, and is also an important source of high energy-carrying products such as calcium carbide and ferrosilicon in China.

Advantageous resources

Wuhai City is rich in mineral resources, has been proved metal and non-metallic deposits of 37 kinds, of which, more than 3 billion tons of coal reserves, mainly high-quality coking coal, accounting for about 60% of the coking coal reserves in Inner Mongolia; more than 6 million tons of iron ore reserves; more than a hundred million tons of kaolinite, in addition to limestone, quartz sand and other minerals are also huge reserves. The rich mineral resources provide the necessary conditions for economic development.

Since the reform and opening up, Wuhai's economic and social development speed up, especially during the "Tenth Five-Year" period, Wuhai high energy-carrying industries develop rapidly, the formation of a new pattern of transformation of resources; urban construction is changing day by day, the infrastructure is getting better and better. A rapid economic development, urban outlook a new situation, is attracting visitors from all directions.

The establishment of Wuhai began with the development of coal resources, which in turn provided the conditions for the development of industry.

In the early 1950s, there were only a few small local coal kilns in the Wuhai area left behind by Ma Hongkui, the warlord of Northwest China in the old days. 1958, with the opening of the Baolan Railway, especially after the creation of Baosteel, the demand for coal and coal coke, the development of large-scale coal resources began here.

In October of this year, in order to ensure that the Baotou Iron and Steel Company production on the need for coal, the Inner Mongolia Party Committee and the government asked Bayannur League and Ikezhao League to focus on coal production. At that time, when the whole nation mobilized "super British", "catch up with the United States" - years, the four sides of the builders began to converge here, the west bank of the Yellow River, Zhuozi mountain appeared under the construction of the unprecedented scene. At that time, by the autonomous regional party committee and the government drew Bameng and Baotou Mining Bureau of a large number of cadres and technical backbone to Wuda composed of Wuda Mining Bureau, has started the construction of a new Huangbaizi coal mine, Suhaitu coal mine, Wuhu Mountain coal mine, the transformation and expansion of the Liangjiagou coal mine, the teaching of the gully coal mines, from 1963 to 1970 were completed or partially put into operation, the design capacity of the annual output of 3.66 million tons in 1975 the actual output of 3.01 million tons of raw coal. In 1975, it produced 3.01 million tons of raw coal.

At the same time, coordinated by the Ministry of Coal, from Heilongjiang Province, such as Jixi Coal Mines and other places to deploy the integration of the construction of wells, mining teams and a large number of engineers and technicians, to come to HaiBoWan, which belongs to the Yimeng, the establishment of HaiBoWan Mining Bureau of the predecessor - ZhuoZiShan Mining Bureau. 1959 to 1970, the construction of a new or Between 1959 and 1970, Pinggou Coal Mine, Old Donggou Coal Mine, Old Shidan Coal Mine, Gongwusu Coal Mine, Gongwusu Open Pit Coal Mine, with a design capacity of 2,770,000 tons, and an actual output of 1,250,000 tons of coal in 1975, were constructed and expanded. In addition, Wuda City and Haibowan City (both county-level cities) also built or reconstructed the Red Flag Coal Mine and Moergou Coal Mine.

With the development of coal resources at the same time other enterprise construction projects are also in progress. 1958 October, by the state investment in the construction of the West Zhuozishan Cement Plant construction, October 1, 1971, the first and second kiln began trial production; in September 1958, Baogang limestone base from Shanxi Shuo County, Hongtao Mountain to the Zhuozishan Mining District Kabuki, and began construction the following year, the annual design capacity of 150 tons of limestone; the annual design capacity of 150 tons of limestone; the annual design capacity of 150 tons of limestone; the annual design capacity of 150 tons of limestone; the annual design capacity of 150 tons of limestone; the annual design capacity of 150 tons of limestone. The annual design production capacity was 150 tons of limestone; in 1958, Yimeng started to develop the Gandel lead mine. After more than 100 days of hard work by 2000 people who "looked for ore while producing", "started the work by local method and worked on both local and foreign methods", the mine produced 2780 tons of lead sand and 70 tons of lead ore with picks and shovels, and 45 tons of crude lead were refined in a small clay furnace. 1975 saw the production of 383.5 tons of pure lead metal, and the production of 383.5 tons of pure lead metal. In 1975, the company produced 383.5 tons of pure lead metal and 628.09 tons of pure zinc metal; in May 1969, the Inner Mongolia Production and Construction Corps invested 3 million yuan to build a small flat glass factory in Haibowan. This is the predecessor of the later Haijing Glass Group and Blue Star Glass Group.

Beginning in 1958, the Wuhai region has built a number of building materials enterprises, such as Haibeowan Civil Ceramics Factory, Haibeowan Brick and Tile Factory, Gray Sand Brick Factory, Wuda Brick and Tile Factory, Wuda Refractory Materials Factory, Haibeowan Ceramics Factory, Wuda Cement Factory and so on.

In the deep development of coal resources and building materials in the process of building enterprises, in 1964, according to the central government on the development of the three lines of construction of war preparation instructions, the autonomous region decided to Zhuozi mountainous areas of Haibeiwan region to establish the production of light weapons of the military industrial enterprises. 1965 April, Inner Mongolia, the first, second and third military machinery factories, as well as supporting the tool factory, machine tool overhaul factories, wood production plants, casting and forging plant and other enterprises began to build. Factory and other enterprises began construction, seven military enterprises to 1984, the cumulative investment of 43.355 million yuan, with 297 engineers and technicians.

That year, along with the development of coal resources to build these enterprises, the city of Wuhai before the establishment of the industrial prototype. It was precisely because of the emergence of these enterprises and the need for further development and management coordination that the Central Government and the State Council decided in 1976 to merge Wuda and Haibeowan to establish the city of Wuhai. The establishment of the city of Wuhai gave a great impetus to the economic and social development of the Wuhai region. Wuda and Haibowan, which had a population of only 200,000 at that time, have formed an emerging city with a complete industrial base after nearly 30 years of development since the establishment of the city. This city of more than 400,000 people has formed four pillar industries: energy, chemical industry, building materials and metallurgy. After the implementation of the market economy, although here when a number of small and medium-sized enterprises have been founded bankruptcy and transformation, was even merged or reorganization and transformation, but has been revitalized; a number of resource conversion as the focus of energy-carrying enterprises to the rapid emergence of Wuhai as a new point of economic growth. Last year, Wuhai's industrial output value of more than 13 billion yuan, fiscal revenue exceeded the 1 billion mark, more than 10 times the initial period of the establishment of the city.

Wuhai's culture has developed and flourished along with the development of coal resources and the establishment of the city. Therefore, compared with the long history of cultural cities, Wuhai's culture has a strong corporate culture, immigrant culture and emerging urban culture combined color.

Looking at Wuhai from the scope of the larger culture, the most characteristic culture here is the enterprise culture. Industry accounts for an absolute proportion of the economy, the city's large, medium and small enterprises and more than half of the employees of the enterprise workers, so that the local cultural composition, enterprise culture occupies an important position.

Wuhai is a typical immigrant city, a steady stream of builders from all directions came here to start their own businesses and settle down, bringing here the culture and customs of the original place of residence, as well as new ideas. Therefore, although Wuhai does not have its own long history of traditional cultural deposits, nor does it have its own commonly used dialects, or even inherent regional traditions and customs, it has a very strong capacity for cultural integration, is not conservative, is not xenophobic, does not adhere to the rules; any new thing can take root and blossom here, and any new idea can be accepted here.
