The municipal land department has learned that the location of geothermal well drilling in the future Yangzhou urban ecological center-"Seven Rivers and Eight Islands" has been determined, and the first hot spring well will be drilled in the middle of this month, which means that the project of "Phoenix Hot Spring Island" has been started, and a high-end international comprehensive tourism resort island integrating tourism, vacation, business, conference, leisure, sports and residence will soon meet the general public.
It is understood that the "seven rivers and eight islands" area in our city has a special terrain and is divided by seven rivers and eight islands. The water quality in this area is intact, the wetland function is powerful, there are lakes and plain wetland landscapes with the best ecological and natural environment in China, and there are superior geothermal resources. According to the geothermal exploration and evaluation report of Fenghuang Island in Yangzhou completed by our city, the underground 1, 400-3000m in the north of Fenghuang Island is a water-rich fault zone. It is estimated that the geothermal water temperature is above 50 degrees Celsius, and the sunrise water volume of a single well is 500 tons, which is suitable for developing hot spring tourism and hot spring economy.
"This is an important ecological corridor in the north-south direction of the city. Its unique natural ecological landscape and rich geothermal resources have the conditions to build an international wetland eco-tourism holiday island. " Shi Ming, Deputy Director of Geology and Mineral Resources Department of Municipal Bureau of Land and Resources.
The preliminary development plan of "seven rivers and eight islands" in our city has been released. According to the relevant development plan, the city will speed up the development and utilization of hot springs in the "seven rivers and eight islands" area and build the "Phoenix Hot Spring Island" in the "seven rivers and eight islands" area.
The Municipal Bureau of Land and Resources, Jiangsu Oilfield Geological Research Institute and Provincial Geological Survey Institute jointly implemented the geothermal resources research and drilling feasibility demonstration scheme in this area, basically completed the research on the geological conditions of geothermal resources within 50 square kilometers in this area, delineated the drilling optimization area and delineated five pre-selected well locations. Well Fenghuang 1 has completed the electrical geophysical prospecting work and will start drilling in the middle of this month, which marks the official start of the "Phoenix Hot Spring Island" project located in the south of Fenghuang Island and the north of expressway, the northwest ring city.
It is reported that the "Phoenix Hot Spring Island" project will make use of the tourism development conditions of "theme product type" and "natural human resources type" of Phoenix Island Leisure Resort, draw lessons from the construction experience of international advanced tourist attractions, take natural resources as the starting point of the project, and connect with Yangzhou context through international regional planning to create a high-end international comprehensive tourism integrating tourism, vacation, business, conference, health, leisure, sports and residence.
"As a landmark project for Yangzhou to build a world famous city, this project has catalyzed the strategic transformation of Yangzhou's tourism industry from traditional sightseeing to leisure and holiday tourism through the successful development of leading hot spring tourism projects, enriching and upgrading the Yangtze River Delta tourism loop." Qiu Minzeng, director of the Geology and Mineral Resources Department of the Municipal Bureau of Land and Resources, said.
