Are there any mineral reserves that China covets ?

Nope...  It's a flat plateau region.  Apart from shepherds I doubt anything is over there except military infrastructure & a all weather Highway.  It is now part of Xinjiang Autonomous region. 

Have to look at if there is any mining activity in vast Xinjiang.

Just found this reference ... https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Huoshaoyun

Nehru & Krishna Menon's 1962 blunder has cost us more than land 

India/British had no control over these lands...  These lands were lost prior to 1962 & no battles happened hereg...  Only after the construction of G219 highway we came to know it was gone. Still Nehru/Menon should have negotiated or exchanged some portions...  Coz Chinese wouldn't have given up on Their lifeline by mere aggressive gestures.  Ended up being a Himalayan blunder.

Its incorrect assumption. Place is disputed and hence intentinally, mining is not done. If something valuable appears in that zone, its anyones guess, what will happen.
