In the vast field of materials science, two-dimensional (2D) material has long been a focal point of cutting-edge research. Since the discovery of single-layer graphene in 2004—an event akin to dropping a massive stone into a calm lake, sending ripples in all directions—the family of 2D materials has rapidly expanded. To date, hundreds of experimentally accessible 2D materials have been identified. However, for a long time, these 2D materials were largely confined to layered material systems. Metals, which hold a significant position in the materials world, are mostly non-layered materials. Reshaping metals into 2D forms has thus posed a major challenge to the scientific community.

To further implement the spirit of the "Notice of the Ministry of Finance, the Ministry of Natural Resources, and the State Taxation Administration on Issuing the 'Measures for the Collection of Mineral Rights Transfer Proceeds'" (Cai Zong [2023] No. 10) and the "Notice of the General Office of the Ministry of Natural Resources on Issuing the 'Guidelines for Formulating Market Benchmark Prices for Mineral Rights Transfer Proceeds'" (Zi Ran Zi Ban Han [2023] No. 1905), the Hubei Provincial Department began updating and adjusting the market benchmark prices for mineral rights transfer proceeds in 2025 for 25 mineral types listed in the "Mineral Catalogue" of Cai Zong [2023] No. 10, including tungsten, molybdenum, gold, copper, and phosphorus. This effort resulted in the "2025 Hubei Province Research Results on Market Benchmark Prices for Mineral Rights Transfer Proceeds for 25 Mineral Types Including Gold, Copper, and Phosphorus (Draft for Comments)."
