Maybe derife can tour China's rare earth mines?

Doubtful I think.

Anyway, what's to see except dirt being moved.

Now the following will excite your vision senses.

The Three Gorges Dam on the Yangtze River in China is the world's biggest hydroelectric facility. A hydroelectric gravity dam that spans the Yangtze River by the town of Sandouping, in Yiling District, Yichang, Hubei province. The dam flooded 13 cities, 140 towns, and 1,352 villages when it was built with 1.4 million people uprooted, their ancestral homes demolished, communities broken up and farmlands flooded. It took 17 years to build.

Is Three Gorges bigger than Hoover Dam? By comparison, the 1.4 miles (2.3 kilometres) in length, Three Gorges Dam is five times larger. The latter has an installed capacity of 22,500 MW, compared to Hoover Dam's 2,080MW. Thus Three Gorges Dam can generate up to 10.8 times the amount of hydroelectric power.

With the escalation of the situation in the Taiwan Strait, the Three Gorges Dam likely to become the target of asymmetric counterattacks. The one flaw in the Three Gorges Dam dam vulnerability theory is that China could lower the water level before attacking Taiwan. The only drawback for China would be that everyone would know they were draining the reservoir and would therefore conclude an attack was imminent, thus losing any element of surprise.
