Abstract

In order to improve the fuzzy comprehensive evaluation model of mineral resource sustainability and enhance its scientific and objective nature, in this paper, a cloud model-based risk assessment method is introduced to determine the sustainability of mineral resources in a comprehensive comparison, while using a combination of subjective and objective weighting method combining improved hierarchical analysis and the entropy weighting method. Compared with the previous single-assignment evaluation method, the method used in this paper has the advantages of more reasonable determination of weights, more accurate results and better visualization. On this basis, the combined weight method, cloud model method and hierarchical fuzzy evaluation method are organically combined to conduct a comprehensive evaluation of the sustainability of mineral resources in Henan Province. The case analysis shows that the comprehensive evaluation results of the sustainability of mineral resources obtained according to the method are scientifically reasonable and have important reference value and promotion significance for quantitative research in related fields.
