At present, most enterprises have been discontinued rare earth, rare earth manufacturers offer remained stable.Inventory of goods do not want to sell. Rare on the market continued to decrease in the case of inventory, making the future of rare earth prices have bottomed up possibilities.

Reporters informed of the latest , Ganzhou ionic rare earth ore prices generally rose sharply in November , the price increases were about 20%. Among them, the yttrium europium -rich ore prices have climbed to 215,000 / ton , or up to 26.5% .

It is understood that rare earth ions are mainly distributed in Jiangxi, Guangdong , Fujian, Guangxi, Hunan and other provinces , is the world, the main source of heavy rare earths . In hailed as "rare earth kingdom" Jiangxi Ganzhou , prospective reserves of rare earth ore ionic ionic mineral reserves accounted for about 50% , ranking first in its type yttrium rich heavy rare earth mineral resources unique to the world .

" With the new energy, new materials, environmental protection , aerospace, electronic information and other related areas of strategic emerging industries increasingly widespread application of rare earth has become a key strategic emerging industries essential raw materials, demand for space is broad. " Ganzhou City Industry and Information Commission responsible person that the increasing demand , the recent price increases of the main factors of rare earth . Also from one side to show the development of rare earth industry is gradually warmed up.

According to foreign media recently reported that the World Trade Organization (WTO) dispute handling Subcommittee on United States and Europe for Chinese rare earth export controls to make a preliminary ruling proceedings , basically agreed plaintiff 's argument that China has in the rare earth export restrictions , export taxes , etc. a violation of the commitments. According to authoritative sources , China Rare Earth Industry Association has begun with the relevant departments to communicate and to discuss countermeasures.

Insiders pointed out that the United States and Europe is behind the lawsuit rare "encirclement and suppression " suppressing China rare earth prices ambitions , China should strengthen the rare earth mining , production, exports and other aspects management, standardize the market order .

Recently there is news that China is brewing including crackdown private mine, the introduction of " rare Management Regulations" , the different varieties of rare earths including a number of New Deal differentiated management to deal with the export -changing. However, insiders pointed out that this combination of punches in order to look good , the government needs to do more to "warm up ."


Quota system to prove safety
China has about 23% of the world 's rare earth reserves , but long-term supply more than 90% of global rare earth production. Previously few years, China has been in the export of rare earth export quota system perform , that is clearly a year of domestic manufacturing enterprises meet the relevant conditions of export volume and distribution companies , in order to protect resources and the environment and realize sustainable development.

For a long time , disorderly exploitation , destruction of the ecological , low-cost exports is China 's rare earth industry ills . But the United States and Europe and other economies do not care about environmental issues , many times to launch an attack . Since 2009, the EU requested the lifting of the rare Chinese export quota system products , countries began to fight for China's rare earth exports for various actions , intended to get cheap rare earths.

If the United States and Europe in the joint prosecution Chinese " undue restrictions on exports of rare earths " in favor of the issue , then China will have to make concessions on the issue of export quotas . Past experience shows that companies competing prices will be difficult to avoid. Once forced to cancel because of the quota system ( without limiting exports ) after the huge interest in front of Chinese rare earth excessive and indiscriminate digging , smuggling and illegal export of other issues, have "cabbage price" rare earth might comeback .

Investment Advisor in the metallurgical industry researcher Weiqi Ning believes that the future of China 's rare earth industry will show a " wolf inside and outside tiger " situation. He said: "The system of forced adjustment pressures rare earth export quota system , the export tariff will be open . This may not only lead to rectify the problem is being revived , smuggling trafficking phenomenon also on the rise, but will aggravate plight of the industry was forced open . "

Insiders also believe that China may be adjusted after the end of the proceedings rather than cancel the rare earth export quota system. By the end of 2011 , the Ministry of Commerce on the rare earth export quota system has been modified , the modified system according to manufacturer's environmental compliance status of quota allocation , in addition to the quota were classified into light rare earth quotas and heavy rare earth quotas.
Previously held a rare meeting, China Rare Earth Industry Association vice president Wang Qin has publicly said that the cancellation of rare earth export quota management , we recommend first began to consider a lighter rare earths .

However, rare earth export restrictions violate WTO rules quite controversial. Some experts believe that , according to the relevant WTO provisions , in order to protect resources and the environment to achieve legitimate policy objectives , Member States may take the necessary restrictive measures, including export restrictions .

Export policy to be adjusted

WTO ruling will make 2014 the news of rare earth export environment changed dramatically. Response time left to the rare earth industry and no market expected so long , it also deepened the rare earth industry Forced accelerate the introduction of governance policies . Brewing industry consolidation as well as a number of legendary New Deal are rare cases does the WTO "warm up" to prepare .

Analysis of the industry , output restriction will lead to excessive and indiscriminate digging , black market , leading to a waste of resources. Priority should be to adjust the export policy, strengthen application of rare earth development and efficient use of rare earth resources , can not be wasted earth .

Previously, some of the rare earth expert bluntly , rare earth export quota system susceptible to corruption , providing benefits "rent-seeking space," even if the heavy rare earth export restrictions the South , you can also use prices , tariffs and other means to regulate the use of export quotas easily seen by other national grabbed "pigtail ."

There are reports that China slashed rare earth export quotas , resulting in a large number of rare earth enterprises due to lack of quotas , eager to have a trading company export quota system purchase targets. The report shows that the end of 2010 rare earth export quota system "market price " has reached 120,000 ~ 170,000 yuan per ton , up more than 200,000 yuan per ton , while the rare earth quotas speculation to some extent pushed up domestic rare earth spreads.

With the United States, Australia and other countries rare earth enterprises resume production , will produce world's rare earth supply pattern changes, but China in the international market dominance still does not change , the next two to three years in other countries rare earth plant put into operation, will represent to the international market supply about 30%.

It is reported that domestic rare earth enterprises in order to cope with the possible arrival of the dilemma , is quietly pushing into force restructuring to form . It is reported that six months after the suspension of Wei Hua shares recently announced Ganzhou Rare Earth backdoor plan. Restructuring plan shows Ganzhou Rare Earth will listed as rare earth industry development and capital market financing platform to further integrate Ganzhou area of rare earth downstream smelting and separation operations , and gradually developed into a mining and dressing , smelting separation and processing as one of the major rare earth industry group company .

And at the national level by no means without countermeasures. May 10, 2011 , the State Council issued " on the promotion of the rare earth industry healthy development of a number of opinions ", the country around the rare earth resource development, smelting separation and circulation market order expand regulation by the Ministry of Industry and the formation of large rare earth industry group programs , now the industry has formed a number of sets resource extraction, smelting separation processing and application technology research and development of rare earth industry in one large group .

August 2012 , by the Baotou Rare Earth , Xiamen Tungsten and other 12 rare earth production and circulation enterprises invested 10 million yuan each common form of rare earth trading platform - Baotou Rare Earth Products Exchange Limited was established . The company was founded signified by the enterprises themselves, the sponsoring organization of rare earth rare earth products to complete the formation of spot trading platform , the platform will host China's first rare earth products electronic disk operations. Insiders expect the trading platform to be able to play a positive role in stabilizing prices of rare earth .

Recent news that China is brewing a number of New Deal response to export change in the situation , including the crackdown private mine, intends to introduce regulations for rare metals , rare earth brewing different varieties of differentiated management policies . If the WTO ruled that China rare earth export restrictions violations, the policy is also expected to launch .

Rare applied research to be strengthened

Insiders said that China will remain in the rare earth industry consolidation, including environmental and industry consolidation , etc., but compared with the country's strict control measures , with many developed countries, China has a rare application of a wide gap . The international community has been engaged in rare earth basic research, compared to the country , foreign basic research in the application of rare earth a long time, their practical application , the production process, we found some of the rare earth uses.

At the same time , how to more rational use of WTO rules also require rare earth industry "catch-up " one of the priorities .

Expert advice related fields , through communication with the WTO , the country may be classified management for LREE , such as light rare earth export management to some extent liberalized, but the heavy rare earth is still the implementation of conservation policies . Also play a role in the production market, mandatory plans ; establish RE purchasing and storage system , in order to mitigate the impact of WTO ruling .

Although WTO rules do not support the number of Member States to restrict exports of high tariffs and setting behavior , but allows member states to manage exports through export qualification . If the earth through the formation of large enterprise groups , can curb the excessive and indiscriminate digging earth , effective management of rare earth exports . Moreover, China 's rare earth industry in line with WTO majority requirement, but did not do the export quota and the number of domestic consumption to maintain consistency , so China under the framework of the WTO may request to retain the rare earth export quota , while the quota extended to domestic consumption consistent with levels.

Perhaps the long term, Chinese rare earth quotas certainly still will continue to suffer criticism. But stabbing outside must first be peace within , if they can be govern domestic rare earth industry in chaos , and then export management perfecting , Chinese rare earth export quota system to complete the transformation, so that no foreign country can handle grip .

The survey found that in Heilongjiang Province as the representative of the graphite industry is experiencing the same dilemma with the rare earth industry : irrational industrial structure, low level of resource utilization , lack of technological innovation , market disorder , etc. , resulting in lower graphite mineral resources of this strategy price lost overseas , causing damage to the national interest .

Graphite is a strategic non-metallic mineral resources, can be widely used in new materials , machinery, energy , defense, aerospace industry and other fields , is China's second outside another advantage of rare earth minerals . China, as the graphite reserves the richest countries , proven ore reserves of about 20 million tons, accounting for 72% of world reserves of graphite ; graphite resources in Heilongjiang Province over 60% of the country's total reserves .

Some experts worry that , according to current mining methods and speed of the country after decades of proven graphite resources will be depleted , when China imported from abroad high graphite graphite graphite great country into poor countries .

"low high intake " and " to purchase on behalf of mining "

Insiders, although graphite resource more precious, the future market prospects, but the overall development of our country graphite industry in poor condition, a large number of high-quality natural graphite exporting primary products at lower prices , than developed countries in the implementation of the reserve will be processed into high -end and then sold back to the domestic graphite products .

Foreigners put our graphite raw materials processed into high-end products and then sell at high prices to come back a few times , people really very sad . Liujin Zhu said that more than half of their products directly or indirectly sold abroad, these graphite primary products around three or four thousand one ton price to exit after being processed into 120,000 yuan a membrane artificial heart valve or other high-end graphite fluoride graphite products , domestic and imported again .

Heilongjiang Province, Graphite Industry Association Secretary-General Chen Yu Qun , graphite is China's traditional export commodities , China has about nearly a thousand graphite enterprises, mainly produces middle and low carbon graphite , high purity graphite , micronized graphite and expandable graphite and other products. These graphite products are mainly exported to the U.S. , Japan, EU, ​​South Korea and other countries. Currently selling price of 2,000 yuan per ton -4000 yuan, but after re-imported Chinese foreign purification process , the price per ton $ 100,000 -20 million .

Heilongjiang Province, Graphite Industry Association statistics show that the world's major graphite producing countries , India , Pakistan , Canada, North Korea and other countries , accounting for over 90% of world production . United States, Japan , Germany, Britain and other developed countries is the world's major consumer of graphite , graphite demand accounts for about 80% of total world demand .

Science and Technology Department of Heilongjiang Province , Suzhou Sinoma Non-metallic Minerals Industry Design and Research Institute experts, some developed countries have graphite deposits , but taking into account its importance , rarity and the exploitation of environmental costs , are taking their own resources as a strategic resource graphite for reserves , limiting exploitation in favor of China and other countries from cheap imports of graphite primary products used in the production or reserves .

Chinese Academy of Engineering Zhou believes that because China did not have the graphite processing core technology and advanced processing technique of graphite few countries such as United States, Japan EU monopoly led to China's graphite resources "low high into the " foreign " to purchase on behalf of mining " the long-term existence of the state .

Low disorderly development seriously

Insiders pointed out that , as the representative of Heilongjiang graphite industry is facing irrational industrial structure, lack of technological innovation , low-end products vicious competition , low utilization of mineral resources issues, such as not regulated and managed , after decades may so that our great country into graphite from graphite poor countries .

Irrational industrial structure of graphite , vicious competition in the low-end products more prominent . Heilongjiang Province, Han Yufeng Industry Association, said graphite , graphite enterprise of the irrational , the production concentration is low, small-scale enterprises , the primary low-grade product yield, lower prices among the enterprises , market disorder . In particular graphite products through 2010 , 2011 stir-fried , Henan, Hebei , Shandong, Shanxi and other provinces capacity rapid and disorderly growth , low- price products began to seize the domestic market share.

Reporters in the " China Graphite Capital" Jixi , " Chinese graphite City" Luobei other places to see , where some companies use graphite mining is still twenty or thirty years ago, equipment and technology, high energy consumption, heavy pollution and low productivity .

Jixi Municipal Development and Reform Commission deputy director Huang Zuwen , the domestic enterprises graphite mining, beneficiation process for decades without major changes , many graphite companies in a " small, scattered , chaotic," the production, processing conditions and environmental protection issues outstanding. The technology and equipment behind , causing the graphite flotation recovery is not high, there are still a lot of tailings discharged graphite , resulting in a waste of resources .

Heilongjiang Province graphite producing some grassroots cadres and the masses , the local graphite resources indiscriminate chaos dig , abandoning the poor to the rich mining , extensive management, low management level, the phenomenon is relatively common, mining and processing of rendered disordered state. Even in resource exploitation luobei unified planning , there are also graphite beneficiation production line low-level redundant construction of the phenomenon.

In addition , by the lack of funds , personnel shortages and monopoly of foreign technology and other factors, lack of innovative capacity of the graphite industry , high-tech applications slow product development , product technology content is not high, the industry advantage is not strong. As the main body of graphite product technology research and development enterprise , the lack of awareness of technological research and innovation , research and serious shortage of investment capital . In Jixi , for example, participation in Association survey of 37 graphite enterprises, investment in R & D expenses only four , all R & D expenses of only the main business income of 3.8%.

Some experts worry that even though China is the world 's most abundant resources of graphite countries, but graphite is a non-renewable resources , according to the current mining methods and speed of up to 20 years , China has proven graphite resources will be depleted , when China priced imports from abroad, graphite, graphite graphite great country into poor countries .

Overcapacity issues highlighted

Han Yufeng as graphite Industry Association of Heilongjiang Province , Heilongjiang Province is also deputies. In recent years, she used her identity in these different occasions , in various ways to the higher authorities reported on "Protection of graphite mineral resources , the regulation capacity production , to maintain market stability ," the proposal.

Currently the country has a serious surplus production capacity of graphite , Heilongjiang Province is no exception. Han Yufeng said that although graphite is an important strategic resource , extremely versatile , but the current market is still unable to achieve unlimited expansion , resulting in the graphite market situation showed a cyclical changes . Namely the market demand increases , prices of graphite products , investment inflows , graphite production capacity , production increases, followed by supply and demand imbalance , prices fell , the market downturn , output prices both fell , efficiency of the sector in the doldrums, the market competition intensifies, companies fall into the abyss . Then as demand improved , they began a new cycle is basically a period of 3-5 years .

According to the Heilongjiang Provincial graphite industry association statistics analysis, due to sluggish world economic situation , market demand , graphite some products in the two years of product demand, prices skyrocket after the brilliant , began to decline in the second half of 2011 .

Analysis of the industry , the future industrial development will be graphite efficient use of resources , intensive processing trends , mainly in the following areas: development of industrial clusters more obvious characteristics , the main producing areas of the government increasing emphasis on the development of the graphite industry is to promote industry accelerate the development of important factors ; accelerate the pace of industrial restructuring , fostering large enterprise , eliminate backward small businesses, achieve economies of scale , industrialization, toward the direction of deep processing products and products development ; new products, new technology research and development will be to promote the industry development of the fundamental driving force, deep processing of high-end graphite , graphite core technology will become the center of the industrial core companies compete battlefield ; conserve resources, protect the environment will become an important part of industrial development ; export situation will be new changes , restrictions and initial processing ore exports encourage deep processing, higher value added products , will promote the export product structure was further optimized.

Strategic resources to attract global attention

Chen Yu Qun analysis, with the surging and high-tech modern industrial advances, especially developed countries in the world more and more attention on the graphite , the international market demand will maintain rapid growth, making graphite market prospects are very broad.

First, natural graphite resources are unevenly distributed, and medium-sized graphite ore concentrated in a few countries , particularly developing resource development policy shift on graphite , graphite primary products in the international market supply will be affected , graphite may become the international market controlled minerals.

Second , high-tech , strategic emerging field of graphite will create a broader space for development. TIMCAL graphite and carbon chemical company , SGL Carbon Group, and a few other multinational companies have developed a number of high-tech graphite deep processing technology and products. As the world advances in technology, new materials, graphite applied more widely .

Third, the integration of the world economy continue to strengthen the worldwide production factors will accelerate the free flow and optimized allocation , unified world market will further expand the scope and areas for the development of international trade graphite provide convenient conditions .

Especially the emergence of graphene has attracted global research boom , and even become the new technological revolution driven by a popular material .

Chinese Academy of Engineering, Tu Hailing such introduction, there is a voice that graphene could replace silicon in future , become a micro-nano electronics industry supporting material . Graphene used in chip area can be greatly increased speed chip ; made ​​of a lithium -ion battery cathode materials can significantly improve battery performance ; made ​​of super- capacitors , the charging time of only 1 millisecond.

Expert analysis , the current industrial graphene has not yet formed , and once mass production will be the next one trillion industry. Great value upon graphite mining, investment funds will be flocked.

Protective development imperative

The industry believes that the graphite industry to ensure the healthy and sustainable development of rare earth resources also need to draw on national management and control model , from a nationwide regulation graphite production capacity, to encourage scientific and technological research and development, overall planning and graphite industry.

" overall planning graphite industries, Protection and Development of graphite resources is a priority. " Han Yufeng said that government departments deal with the chain of domestic graphite production capacity of rational planning , increase the control of resources , improve profitability and competitiveness of the whole industry , establish a reasonable price of graphite control mechanisms to avoid vicious speculation and price wars . Learn from rare earth resources management and control experience, strict regulation capacity production , maintaining market stability.

Huangzu Wen , Chen Yu Qun that, to put an end to low-level redundant construction, greater efforts in deep processing . Across the country to strictly enforce the " graphite industry access conditions " and " graphite industry access Announcement Interim Measures," graphite mining industry to eliminate low-level redundant construction, high energy consumption , low output , product recovery rate is low , serious environmental pollution enterprises have plans to Guantingbingzhuan . At the same time , encourage strong central enterprises and other large enterprises to adopt acquisition, merger, joint venture and other way to integrate graphite mining enterprises, improve industrial concentration , enhance corporate viability , and enhance industrial development potential.

Heilongjiang Provincial Science and Technology Department , responsible person that should be in the Heilongjiang Provincial Construction domestic first-class scientific and technological innovation service platform, key laboratories and research centers, sharing of information resources , accelerate the transformation and application of graphite industry to continuously improve our capacity for independent innovation . And actively participate in international exchanges and cooperation , and enhancing our graphite industry research level and international status .

For the United States and Europe to the World Trade Organization (WTO) against China 's rare earth export restrictions of trade disputes , WTO Dispute Settlement Body in the interim report of the expert group noted that Chinese rare earth export restrictions violate WTO rules .

Allegedly , WTO presented to the interim report of the countries concerned , and will listen to China and other countries on the comments in this report , summary of the final report , scheduled to be announced later this year .

In general, the contents of the interim report will be basically reflected in the final report. Panel hearing the equivalent of " first instance " China may be responsible for the WTO Appellate Body of Final Appeal.

According to Japan's "Sankei Shimbun" reported on October 26 in Japan, the U.S. and EU joint prosecution Chinese undue restrictions on exports of rare earths issues, the WTO Dispute Settlement Body 's interim report summarizes the general United States and Europe finds reasonable demands , and advised China to correct inappropriate behavior. Reported that in late November, will introduce the final report is not expected to overturn the judgment of United States and Europe may favor on this issue .

3 years ago, which the waters near the Diaoyu Islands between China and Japan occurred after the collision , as sanctions against Japan , China's rare earth export restrictions .

"Although as a major national security strategy will advance to the national reserve of rare earth open market , the government has also said it will not explicitly commissioned several companies acquired rare , but forty-five State enterprises were listed on the acquisition of rare earth in the near future , the intention is also worth thinking about . " one analyst told reporters.

Recently began purchasing and storage of rare earth on the national news was hot market , insiders boldly predicted , the fastest will open this month national reserve . And since October , before this and previous official purchasing and storage , companies are pre- acquisition situation similar to the market .

Collectively raise the price listed

" Rare-Earth secondary listing price adjustment , which is due to state purchasing and storage price is not ideal , trying to pull up the price in order to get more profit. "My Nonferrous Metals analyst Li Qing , told reporters that from the point of view of several rare earth companies , led by Baotou Steel Rare Earth , after adjusting for major rare earth product prices , the other companies , and it has remained relatively consistent .

November 11 , Baotou Steel Rare Earth official website again publicly quoted price of rare earth oxides , including oxide, praseodymium neodymium 400,000 yuan / ton, praseodymium oxide 650,000 yuan / ton, neodymium oxide 380,000 yuan / ton, europium oxide 5.6 million yuan / tons. This price than October 31 the company first announced the price has increased, the rate of increase between 5% -12 % .

It is worth noting that last year before the state purchasing and storage , Baotou Steel Rare Earth once in a month, twice a change in listing price . Therefore, the market price adjustment on the Baotou Rare Earth secondary general tendency interpreted as " more clearly state purchasing and storage of rare earth expectations ."

In the Baotou Rare Earth on October 31 for the first time since the publication listing price , less than half of the time, including Minmetals rare earth, rare earth aluminum , Rising colored , Ganzhou Rare Earth Group, including four companies have announced both the respective listing price of rare earth . Among them, Minmetals ( Beijing ) Co., Ltd. Rare Earth Research Institute announced addition to the main rare earth oxides and Rare-Earth similar offer , but also quoted a price of other products , such as praseodymium oxide 650,000 yuan / ton, terbium oxide 4.5 million yuan / ton, dysprosium oxide 2.2 million yuan / ton , yttria 80,000 yuan / ton, lutetium oxide 9,000,000 yuan / ton and erbium oxide 400,000 yuan / ton, prices were higher than the market price.

A national reserve of rare earth market is expected to be more intense, November 14 , rare earth permanent magnet stocks move up sharply , which Tiantonggufen , Din Tai new material daily limit, Ruiling shares rose 6.81 percent , Sheng and resources up 6.02% , up 4.98% Galaxy magnet , Minmetals rare Earth rose 2.51 percent .

But analysts Du Shuai Bing told reporters , in fact, the transaction price is not so good like the stock market .

Shanshan side analyst also said that the capital market for rare earth stocks was indeed exist hype, or to rely on the spot market to boost the real market demand.

"Because of oversupply on the market of rare earth , if the state purchasing and storage of rare earth in the end of this year the implementation strategy, boost market confidence a lot of good , but for businesses, purchasing and storage as in previous years, often in only about half a year after purchasing and storage enterprises will be paid , will result in greater financial pressure companies , if they can improve the relevant conditions , companies would prefer to participate in a whole chain of purchasing and storage . " Edge Shanshan told reporters .

Preparing for state purchasing and storage

"From the main rare earth products currently on the market price of view, if we are to maintain a stable price, so that market conditions stabilized , the purpose has been achieved. But now the downstream demand is still relatively weak , the main business is not to mention the price is good deal , and now again to raise prices , it appears that a few large companies want to move up the price , and now it did not reach the destination , it is likely the price will be listed again . " Li Qing said that .

Li Qing given major rare earth product prices show that from August 30 this year , the main products Ganzhou rare earth neodymium oxide, praseodymium from 365,000 yuan / ton high has dropped to 337,500 yuan / ton, up to a few large companies such as Baotou Rare Earth tone high offer , its price was increased to the current 342,500 yuan / ton.

A rare association of anonymity, said that last year, state purchasing and storage of products mainly include LREE 18,000 tons , 50 tons of europium oxide , yttrium oxide 1500 tons , 300 tons of dysprosium oxide , terbium oxide, 60 tons, but has also not fully disclosed .

Guotai Junan and a previous study reported that this year the state purchasing and storage of the entire purchasing and storage of rare earth plate will have ten billion yuan , and is mainly in the heavy rare earths. Purchasing and storage products 4000 tons neodymium oxide, praseodymium oxide, praseodymium , neodymium oxide, each 500 tons , 1200 tons of dysprosium oxide , or 1,500 tons , 300 tons erbium oxide , also plans Shouchu europium oxide, terbium each 500 tons , 2500 tons or yttria 2000 tons , and lutetium oxide , a total of 10,000 tons or more.

" national reserve of rare earth roughly tricky, but the main problem is how to develop a better system , one in the past, purchasing and storage process, the formation of large enterprises to raise price and combined listed market price lower case this boost rare earth products from the perspective of the market price does not achieve the purpose ; Second , companies will sell products to countries , the return of funds is slow, although higher than the market price, but the pressure is relatively large. " Edge Shanshan , told reporters that at present several large enterprises hang out main product prices neodymium oxide, praseodymium 400,000 yuan / ton, while the market price is about 335,000 yuan per ton .

Insiders also told reporters that now these companies to move up if the price quoted by the union , to achieve the purpose of purchasing and storage , transfer of interest in fact , put a few large central enterprises fattened , good conducive to national integration this game of chess .
