By coordinating the integrated media matrix built with its “one newspaper, one website, MicroBlog and WeChat, one terminal” and a number of third-party communication channels, it has created a series of original integrated media products with new ideas and depth, and realized the full coverage of text, pictures, video, audio, live broadcasting and other forms of content. The comprehensive user volume of all platforms has exceeded 1.6 million, and the annual browsing volume has exceeded 50 million, making it the professional information service platform with the largest audience, the strongest communication power and the widest influence in the field of mining in China.
