The introduction of new games as well as lotteries at different price points, is making them affordable.

A geographic information system (GIS) is a set of tools used to interpret geospatial data using analytical tools. It integrates software, data, and services for processing data. A GIS digitizes the geospatial data received from data-capturing devices and processes it using analytics to provide the desired output. Sectors such as transportation, government, natural resources, military, utilities, and telecommunications are the major end-users of GIS solutions. Its trending applications include disaster management, viewing digital maps, finding location details, and designing facilities (including the 3D mapping of structures and locations). End-users across various industries rely on GIS solutions to enhance their decision-making ability, productivity, and security standards.

战略矿产的保护与增储至关重要。考虑到我国战略性矿产低储量、高对外依存度的格局，战、矿产保护已成为国家安全和资源战略的重要组成部分。国家将统筹利用超长期特别国债等现有资金渠道，支持有色金属资源开发，并做好重 要品种国家储备（储备规模或达到 GDP 的 1.2%）。战略矿产的保护和增储对我国有色金属行业的发展具有重要意义。一方面，资源储量的突破将为我国有色金属的长期稳定生产打下坚实基础，且国内资源储量的提升或有效降低我国金属矿产对外依存度。另一方面，国家收储将推升金属需求。例如，2025 年 1 —5 月，我国精炼镍采购超 7 万吨，累计显性储备超 10 万吨，约为 2024 年全球镍精炼产量的 3%，国家资源收储推动了金属需求提升。
