China has discovered helium in the Ngari prefecture of western Tibet, reports the Tibetan Review, saying the helium concentration exceeds 0.1% and could be used industrially. Helium is an inert gas widely used in aerospace, low temperature superconductivity, the nuclear industry and scientific research. Until now China has imported helium, this the only natural gas field in China that could be used for its industrial exploitation.
