Danang lies between latitudes 15055’ and 16014’N. and longitudes 107018’
and 108020’E. It is in the central of Vietnam, 759km from Hanoi and
960km from Ho Chi Minh City. Conveniently, it lies on the north-south
communications axis of land route (National Road 1A), rail, sea and air
routes. Danang borders Thua Thien-Hue Province in the
north, Quang NamProvince in the south and the west, and
the Eastern Sea in the east.
"Natural resources: Ha Nam has 851 km2 of natural land located in the deep part of the Red river delta. The soil is rich suitable for short-term industrial crops and fruit trees. The province is also suitable for developing aquaculture and breeding of waterfowls. Limestone is the major mineral found in Ha Nam with a large reserve of over 7 billion m3 which allows it to become one of the large construction material production centers in the Northern plain. Other mineral include precious stones, clay, peat with the reserve of over 11 million m3, construction sand.
- Human resources: The labour force is abundant with approx. 11,900 higher education degree holders (accounting for 3% of the labour force) including 34 doctorate & master’s degree holders, 4,250 university degree holders, 7,240 college degree holders; 13,000 professional school certificate holders, 10,400 technical workers. Trained labourers are 997,000 in which 415,000 having certificates (accounting for over 10% of the labour force). The majority of the labour forces are working in agriculture-forestry-fishery (over 81.4%). 115,000 are jobless (3% of the labour forces). There is an annual increase of 8,000 – 9,000 people in the province’s population, providing more labour forces.
White sand: mostly in Nam O Ward, Lien Chieu District. Total capacity: five million m3.
- Marble: mostly at the Marble Mountains (Ngu Hanh Son) but it is now forbidden to exploit this.
- Construction stone: is common around the city, especially in the west, north and southwest.
- Schist: mostly in Pho Nam Hamlet, Hoa Bac Commune, Hoa Vang District. Total capacity: 500,000 m3. This dark grey stone can be split into slabs with a width of (0.5 x 10) – 0.3¸0.5m.
- Sand and gravel: Sand is mostly found in the Vinh Dien, Tuy Loan, Yen, Cau Do, Cam Le and Cu De rivers while gravel is in Hoa Bac and Hoa Lien communes of Hoa Vang District.
- Laterite: Three mines in La Chau, Hoa Cam and Phuoc Ninh have had preliminary surveys. The laterite in the mines is a weathered variety of Bol-Atek schist.
- Leveling material: in Hoa Phong, Hoa Son and Da Phuoc. Most are surface layers of weathered Bol-Atek schist, which are up to 40 - 50 m deep in some places.
- Clay: about 38 million m3
- Mineral water: in Dong Nghe with an output of 72 m3 per day
- The city’s continental shelf is endowed with oil and gas potential.
Forest resources
Of 67,148 hectares of the city’s forest land, most are in the west and northwest, consisting of the three following types:
- Specialised forests: 22,745 hectares with 15,933 hectares of forest land.
- Protective forests: 20,895 hectares with 17,468 hectares of forest land.
- Productive forests: 23,508 hectares with 18,176 hectares of forest land.
Most of these are in the west of Hoa Vang District. The others are scattered in the districts of Lien Chieu, Son Tra, and Ngu Hanh Son. The rate of coverage is 49.6% and the timber capacity is three million m3. Although Danang forests are largely on sloping and complex terrain, they contribute much to the city’s economic and tourism development, scientific research and ecological protection. Danang is endowWater resources
* Sea and coastline:
Danang has a 30km coastline and Danang Bay is protected by Hai Van Pass and Son Tra Peninsula. These conditions along with deep water are favorable for building large and functional ports. Being on international water routes, Danang has many advantages to develop maritime transportation. Danang Bay is also a safe shelter for high-capacity vessels in case of storms.
The 15,000 km2 fishery area has 266 species of marine animals. 16 of these have high economic value including 11 species of shrimp, 2 of cuttlefish and 3 of seaweed. The total capacity of seafood estimated by the Ministry of Aquaculture is 1,136,000 tons, which can be mostly found in waters with depths of 50 - 200m (48.1%), 50m (31%) and over 200m (20.6%). More than 150,000-200,000 tons of seafood are exploited a year.
A long coastline with many beautiful beaches such as Non Nuoc, My Khe, Thanh Khe, Nam O and large coral reefs around Son Tra Peninsula are among the advantages for the marine economy and tourism development.
Many surveys are being conducted in Danang waters in search of oil and gas.
* Rivers and lakes:
With headwaters in the west and northwest of the city and Quang Nam Province, most of the local rivers are short and sloping. There are two main ones. The Han River with a length of 204km and a basin of 5,180km2 and the Cu De River (38km and 426km2 respectively). Among the others are the Yen, Chu Bai, Vinh Dien, Tuy Loan, and Phu Loc rivers.
There are more than 546 hectares of water surface that can be developed for aquaculture, raising grouper, salmon, cam fish, prawn and lobster.ed with some specific natural conservation areas such as Ba Na, Son Tra and Southern Hai Van.
