刍论矿冶文化

矿冶文化是人类在对各类矿产资源进行勘探、开采、冶炼、加工和贸易的过程中所创造的物质财富和精神财富的总和，是“自然的人化”的表现。矿冶文化作为物质文化的一个重要方面，既有中国传统文化的基本特征，又充分表现为包容文化、熔炉文化、合作文化和求实文化。矿冶文化传承了中国传统文化的基本精神，从认识矿石的作用，到探矿、开矿、燃起熊熊炉火炼矿的那一刻起，就表现出了艰苦奋斗、开拓进取、求真务实、创新争先的人文精神。矿冶文化不仅是黄石作为千年矿冶文明之都的历史传承，而且作为一种无形的力量，不断地推动着黄石经济社会的发展和进步，是黄石的血脉和现实发展的驱动力。深入研究矿冶文化，既是加强城市文化建设、弘扬矿冶文化精神的内在需要，又是彰显城市特色、弘扬城市精神、推动资源枯竭型城市经济发展转型、提高城市竞争力的必然选择和必由之路。
