Mineral resources are the material basis for the development of human society and the focus of the game in the world. The distribution of global mineral resources is extremely unbalanced, which shapes the distribution pattern of today's global mineral resources, and also affects today's world economic pattern and geopolitical pattern. Today, 33 well-known mines in the world have been sorted out. This paper is dedicated to the readers.

An American company was forced to land and found the world's largest iron ore due to the lack of fuel for the aircraft during the aviation exploration. The proved recoverable reserve of karakas iron ore is 7.2 billion tons, which is worth more than US $600 billion according to the preliminary calculation of current iron ore price.
2. Mogalakwena, the largest platinum mine in the world
Located in South Africa, mogalakwena platinum mine is the largest and most profitable platinum mine in the world, with a resource reserve of 3706700000 tons of ore.

4. Rhovan, the world's largest vanadium ore
Luovanadium deposit is located in the bush well vanadium deposit, South Africa, which is a super large vanadium deposit. The rock mass is 480km long, 380km wide, and covers an area of 182000 square kilometers. It occurs in the V-Ti-magnetite deposit and the rock neck at the bottom of the complex. The main magnetite deposit at the bottom has the highest vanadium content, with a grade of v2o51.4% - 1.9%. It is estimated that the total vanadium resource of the deposit is 560 million tons. Among them, the resource reserve of rhovan is 182600000 ore tons.
