Mongolia grass fires threaten border with China - Chinese state media www.reuters.com

Grassland fires from Mongolia on Monday threatened to spread across the border to China, spurring local Chinese authorities to dispatch teams to intercept them to avert a major blaze, Chinese state media reported.
Using satellite remote sensing monitoring, officials at the Forest and Grassland Fire Prevention headquarters of Hulunbuir in China found fires outside the borders of two of the city's counties - the New Barag Left and Right Banners.
As of 8:20 a.m. (0020 GMT), the nearest fires could be seen amid swirls of dust about 4 kilometres (2.5 miles) away from China, Chinese state broadcaster CCTV reported. However, the report said no important facilities or residents were around.
After discovering the fire, Hulunbuir Forest and Grassland Fire Prevention dispatched 202 guards, including 82 forest fire brigades, to intercept the front line of the border.
In addition, the Xilingol League south of Hulunbuir on the Chinese side reported a fire 20 km away from the Sino-Mongolian border early Monday morning, viewed through satellite cloud image monitoring.
Mongolia shares a border with China's Gansu province and the Chinese regions of Xinjiang and Inner Mongolia.
The fires menacing the vast Chinese Inner Mongolia region come as several parts of China have faced severe dust storms and unseasonally dry weather.

Korea Coal Corp. to sell Mongolian mine amid energy resource boom www.kedglobal.com

Korea Coal Corporation, a South Korean state-owned firm, is preparing to sell its Khotgor Shanaga coal mine in Mongolia, which it acquired in 2010.
The corporation stated on Monday that it is preparing for bids for the sale, seeing this as an opportune time to sort out its Mongolian mines due to the increase in value of international coal and other energy resources.
The mine was Korea Coal Corp's first overseas acquisition since its founding. The firm stated that with the opening of the Asian Highway in Mongolia and improvements in road infrastructure, foreign companies are showing interest in buying stakes in the coal mine.
The total sale value of the Mongolian mine, including the management premium, is estimated to be around 40 billion won ($30 million). The corporation plans to proceed with the sale of its ownership stake through a bid in consultation with domestic shareholders and select a sale underwriter soon.

Frozen mummies reveal Mongolians’ Drink of Choice www.news.mn

Scientists have analyzed the remains of high-ranking individuals from the Mongol Empire, who were buried in graves with luxury items such as leather, silk, and gold, and had been preserved in permafrost for 800 years. By studying their dental calculus, scientists found evidence that they had a preference for consuming yak milk.
The study, published in the journal Communications Biology , explains that the question of yak domestication had long been unresolved owing to a lack of data. The only archaeological specimen found so far has been a yak cranium recovered from the Late Bronze or Early Iron Age Denjiin Navtan site, the Heritage Daily reports. Other archaeological and historical records of yak domestication in the region are equally hard to come by.
Using paleoproteomics, the study of ancient proteins , to make up for this absence, the investigation has concluded that yak milk was being consumed by Mongolian elite at least as early as the 13th century.
This makes it the first archaeological discovery of yak milk, according to a University of Michigan College of Literature, Science and the Arts (LSA) newsletter . There is plenty of evidence establishing that milk has been vital to Mongolian society for 5,000 years. Researchers have been able to determine the historical consumption of cattle, sheep, goat, and even horse milk, but evidence of early yak milk consumption has been elusive until recently. The discovery was made during the excavation of the Khorig cemetery in the Khovsgol mountains of northern Mongolia, which is located at a high elevation.
The Khorig—meaning taboo—cemetery is in a high-altitude location, situated in the permafrost and, as a Miami Herald article reports, this has meant that human remains dating back to 1206 AD found there, have remained remarkably well preserved. Researchers spent years collecting and conserving bits of leather and silk strewn across the surface of the burials.
However, recent global-warming induced thawing has started exposing the burials not only to the elements but also to looters and vandals. Excavations at the site were therefore speeded up in the nature of salvage operations to rescue the archaeological remains from the dangers of atmospheric and human-induced degradation.
The excavations revealed that the individuals buried in the cemetery were members of the Mongolian aristocracy , with some evidence of links even to the ruling elite.

Tesla to Build New Megapack Battery Factory in Shanghai: Xinhua www.bloomberg.com

Tesla Inc. will build a new battery factory in Shanghai that will start production in the second quarter of next year, the official Xinhua News Agency reported.
The company led by Elon Musk, who is visiting China this weekend, made the announcement at a signing ceremony for the project in Shanghai, the report said.
Tesla will manufacture its Megapack large-scale energy-storage unit in the new facility, which adds to the company’s Gigafactory for electric vehicles in Shanghai and deepens its investment in China. Construction is scheduled to begin in the third quarter of this year and the plant will commence in the second quarter of 2024.
Tesla didn’t immediately respond to a request for comment
The Megapack is intended as a massive battery to help stabilize energy grids, with the company saying each unit can store enough energy to power an average of 3,600 homes for one hour.
The new factory will initially produce 10,000 Megapacks every year, equal to around 40 GWh of energy storage, Xinhua said, adding the products will be sold worldwide.
