Abstract

Magnesium resources in salt lakes in China are of high grade , large reserves and easy exploitation. However , their utilization is lagged behind , affecting the sustainable exploitation and comprehensive utilization of other resources in salt lakes to some extent . In this paper , by considering the characteristics of magnesium resources in salt lakes in China , the research progress in the preparation and utilization of magnesium hydroxide , magnesium oxide , magnesium metal and alloys , magnesium oxychloride cements , and magnesium compound whiskers is reviewed. Some suggestions on the exploitation and comprehensive utilization of the magnesium resources in salt lakes in China are raised.
