The development of magnesium industry in dashiqiao city has a long history: the geological survey of magnesite deposits in the modern industrial sense began in the dashiqiao area around 1913. In 1918, industrial magnesite mining began. In 1925, it set up the south manchurian mining daishiqiao factory. In 1937, an experimental institute for the research and development of magnesium materials was set up in the shengshui temple of dashiqiao. After the founding of the People's Republic of China, in 1950, the state set up a magnesium material production enterprise in the dashiqiao area.

China's magnesia, furnace electric fusion, not fired brick, fired brick are produced in the bridge. After reform and opening up, have mushroomed, dashiqiao magnesium industry booming, have a large number of enterprises have strong competitiveness at home and abroad, forming a set of exploration, mining, mineral intergrowth, processing, marketing as one of the industrial system, magnesia material industry with the resource advantage and scale effect has become the leading industry of the city's economic development. It is mainly divided into magnesium refractory, magnesium chemical, magnesium building materials, magnesium alloy materials. The products cover 60% of the domestic market and 40% of the international market, making a significant contribution to the economic development of the region and to the rapid development of steel, building materials and other high-temperature kilns in China and the world.

In 2002, the ministry of science and technology approved the establishment of the national magnesium material industrialization in dashiqiao. In 2005, China refractory industry association awarded the of "national magnesium material production and export ". In 2011, the ministry of science and technology approved dashiqiao city as the national high-tech industrialization for magnesium materials. In the same year, the magnesium product and deep processing industrial cluster was identified as one of the twelve demonstration industrial clusters in the province. In 2014, yingkou dashiqiao magnesium product industrial (non-ferrous l (magnesium) · yingkou dashiqiao in liaoning) was rated as a new industrial demonstration by the ministry of industry and information technology, and was honored as the "magnesium capital of China" at home and abroad.
