Recently, the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology Materials Industry Division released on 2013 economic operation of the rare earth industry announcement . Notice that in 2013 China's total rare earth mining control index was 9.38 million tonnes ( total rare earth oxide , the same below ) , smelting separation products planned for the 90,400 tons ; actual mining capacity of 80,400 tons , smelting separation products yield was 8.33 tons, respectively, 85.7% and 92.1% plan ; Jiangxi Province and China Minmetals Group, part of the result of the rare earth mine environmental transformation , inhibition of falling prices and reduced yields ; rare earth export quota of the total 24,000 tons ( equivalent to the amount of in-kind 31,000 tons ) , 2013 actual export quota of rare earth products in kind amounted to 22,900 tons , an increase of 36.3% , exports amounted $ 603 million .

Data show that in 2013 China's rare earth industry revenue of 76.9 billion yuan , an increase of 7.9% , a profit of 7.74 billion yuan , down 28.1 percent . The lower profit was mainly due to lower prices of rare earth .

In addition to the above announcement summarizes 2013 cases of rare earth industry , but also on the rare earth industry for 2014 were discussed , in addition to crack down on illegal behavior , accelerate the formation of large enterprise groups this rare work was placed in an important position.

Urged the establishment of a large group of rare earth

Early January 2014 , the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology jointly with relevant departments in Beijing held a rare formation of large enterprise groups thematic sessions. The meeting said, according to the law of survival of the fittest market , has been basically formed Baotou Steel Group , China Minmetals , Chinalco , Guangdong earth, Ganzhou Rare Earth and Xiamen Tungsten six companies led industry development pattern. Next , to the flow, focusing on this six companies were led to further promote mergers and acquisitions , formation of large rare earth enterprise groups.

Ministry stressed that full play a decisive role in the allocation of resources in the market , business-oriented , diversified investment , market operation , and promote mergers and acquisitions by the "Let Me restructuring" to "I want restructuring" changes.

Day laborers in the February 21 letter to the Department 's announcement to accelerate the formation of large enterprise groups are placed in the rare earth remarkable position. Notice that the consolidation and expansion of China Minmetals Group has been formed , China Aluminum , Baotou Steel Rare Earth , Ganzhou rare earth, rare earth , Guangdong , Xiamen Tungsten six rare earth -based mergers and acquisitions corporate structure, the integration of domestic rare earth mining and smelting enterprises separation close in this process a number of illegal businesses , converting a number of enterprises , restructuring a number of enterprises , dramatically reducing the number of rare earth smelting and separation enterprises , resolve excess capacity pressures ; adhere to government guidance, enterprise -led, multi-investment , market-oriented operation principle , play a decisive role in the allocation of resources in the market , a combination of economic , technical, legal and necessary administrative means to eliminate institutional obstacles , grasp this opportunity to promote mergers and acquisitions, as soon as possible to form the pattern of development of large enterprise groups leading rare earth rare earth industry .

Now, after several years to accelerate the pace of consolidation , the basic form of the rare earth industry Southern local businesses and the central enterprises coexist . Baotou Steel Rare Earth , Rising colored , Ganzhou Rare Earth , Xiamen Tungsten control over resources such as local businesses conducted by the Group of integration, while Minmetals Group and through mergers and acquisitions in the downstream aluminum smelting separation and processing industries , and gradually penetrate to the upstream use "infiltration routes " to obtain the right to speak upstream .

For the integration of whether there will be future competition issues , insiders pointed out that the central and local businesses compete both , there are also cooperative . But there is no doubt that the future integration of rare earth will become increasingly fierce competition in the South . Some media reported that the parties are now competing for the rare earth resources in Sichuan province , but there is a listed company in Sichuan Sheng and resources , as well as Leshan Institute of Rare Earth New Materials Co., Ltd , a large foreign enterprises to carry out the integration difficult.

Rare-earth prices are expected to rise

In addition to the rare earth reorganization , "Always keep the pressure up to combat illegal behavior " by the Ministry in an important position in 2014 to work on rare earths .

Notice that this will strengthen supervision , the Ministry will increase with the relevant ministries and verification efforts on the problems highlighted areas , key cases supervise the handling ; establish a linkage mechanism of light rare earths and heavy rare earth crack down on illegal production areas , timely communication of information , co-ordination , unified action ; rare invoices by data sharing, improve the reporting system and other means , to identify problems , investigate and deal with the problem in a timely manner ; implement territorial regulatory responsibility , urging local resolutely investigate and deal with illegal acts ; increase accountability efforts, the regulatory responsibility of individual local governments do not implementation , collusion , illegal acts such as approval of the project accountability ; strengthen social public opinion , news media good practice , exposure typical cases , the work will be used as a key task .

It is worth mentioning that the crackdown will be prompted for each rare earth industry prices, and this will promote the rare earth industry crackdown if prices do ?

Data show that in the first week after the Spring Festival this year , the mainstream price of neodymium oxide, praseodymium preganglionic 300,000 yuan / ton to 305,000 yuan / ton adjusted to 315,000 yuan / ton to 32 yuan / ton ; praseodymium neodymium metal mainstream market prices from 380,000 yuan / ton to 385,000 yuan / ton adjusted to 395,000 yuan / ton to 40 yuan / ton, and even businesses have been quoted to 420,000 yuan / ton, but no record deal .

Meanwhile, gadolinium oxide and gadolinium iron prices have seen a slight rebound , gadolinium oxide and gadolinium iron mainstream price was 155,000 yuan / ton to 16 yuan / ton and 160 thousand yuan / ton to 165,000 yuan / ton, Each tonne compared to pre-holiday callback about 10,000 yuan or so ; price of lanthanum , cerium , dysprosium, terbium , europium, yttrium and other rare earth products consistent with the pre-holiday , unchanged.

Redoubt metal analyst Gao Yan believes that the reasons for the change in rare earth prices , mainly less downstream NdFeB factory stock , with various enterprises have started production, will buy some raw materials ; addition, based on past experience, the market will rebound after a wave of Spring Festival starts every year , so the cargo operators are reluctant sellers cover their goods , resulting in tight supply in the spot prices rebounded .

But there are people in the industry in an interview with reporters , said combining multiple ministries last August remediation illegal rare earth prices prompted the rare cases of view, if this year to combat illegal activities intensified again , rare earth prices are expected to steadily rebound.

Europium oxide market dull , terbium oxide market has certain transactions, a slight increase in the price slightly but little overall change , and the sharp rise in space is still limited.

27th Baotou Rare Earth oxides released Exchange market reference price , according to industry business reflects generally offer higher this week, Minmetals Rare released twice the market price is higher than the actual price a lot.
