Chinese exports of rare earths to meet world demand has long been on the world economic and technological developments make an important contribution, but China has paid a heavy resource and environmental costs.

Twenty years the United States, Europe, Japan, Korea abundance of cheap imports from China rare earth as their strategic reserves, these homes not only through the purchase of government funding over the treasury which is stored in its own way but also by investing in Chinese law to circumvent development of rare earth and rare earth resources in China valuable compete to lower prices due to disorderly competition becomes increasingly reduced export production from China to buy rare earth opposite country's own resources are scarce, but not all countries.

In order to further implement the national, provincial and municipal remediation work conference on earth to crack down on illegal exploitation behavior, norms of rare earth development order to protect the ecological environment.Recently, Gan County issued "on the county to carry out the order of rare earth mining concentrated inspection work of the emergency notice", "four steps" Yan Li remediation rare earth mining order.

China import and export tariff rates for some tariff adjustments which increased export tariffs on rare earth products individually adjust the fertilizer export season seasonal tariff rates applicable period and the off-season export tariffs benchmark price, the Treasury said the move mainly to regulate the export of rare earth and mitigate fertilizer prices rise.

Bobai:Successfully destroyed a hideout of illegal extraction of rare earth.

In recent years , China's rare earth industry management regulation has intensified, received remarkable results. But the earth "black industry chain " issue has long rule without a break. Some industry insiders pointed out that the recent adoption of the " movement" lacks lasting effect remediation measures should explore the establishment of combating illegal production and sales of long-term mechanism of rare earth behavior in order to achieve tackling the problem.

According to the relevant government departments and enterprises responsible agencies estimate that in 2012 the country illegally amount of rare earth minerals estimated more than 40,000 tons , illegal smelting and separation products are more than 50,000 tons . By contrast, last year China's rare earth mandatory production plans were only production of rare earth minerals business , smelting and separation products 76,000 tons , 82,000 tons .

Zhang believes that illegal mining, processing and sale of rare earth activities that affect China's rare earth industry healthy development of a malignant tumor , since 2012, rare earth prices continued to slump, "black earth " substantial impact on the market is a big reason.

2011 and 2012 , the Ministry in conjunction with relevant departments to carry twice the rare earth industry order rectification action . This year August 15 to November 15 , the Ministry and other eight departments have jointly implemented a new round of combat illegal production and sale of rare earth special action .

Insiders pointed out that the implementation of special rectification activities indeed achieved a great deal in the short term , but China's rare earth distribution area is very wide, often special events over, criminals began to perk up , some illegal mining, smelting and separation plant are " limelight "after the resurgence .

Chinese Society of Rare Earths Deputy Secretary-General Zhang Anwen , who said that to eradicate "black earth " to promote the healthy development of rare earth industry , management measures must be institutionalized , normalized to establish long-term mechanism , in order to receive better results.

Specific measures should first metals production and sales as soon as possible national regulations , a clear approval authorities , the approval authority and procedures for the definition of illegal enterprises to provide workable standards. Second, we should improve relevant laws and regulations, specifically the main responsibility for law-abiding and rare earth ore, smelting separation production planning and regulatory measures mandatory legal status , clearly defined responsibilities and administrative law enforcement departments subject, increase the punishment , and promote law enforcement normalization .

Again, should be integrated in the waste recovery projects for rare earth , rare earth minerals mining and other mining companies to be sorted out , based on the measures taken to combining guidance , planning and construction of a number of regional rare earth waste recycling center symbiotic rare earth mine or designated recycling business, and rare earths waste symbiotic rare earth ore processing to be regulated .

Finally, we need to further clarify the inter-ministerial and local responsibility , and the law enforcement center of gravity, the formation of provincial county levels of government, efficient collaboration between departments rare earth production and sales monitoring system , ineffective work of government officials should be held administrative responsibilities.

The WTO ruled against China in the rare earth case . United States and Japan on China's rare earth export restrictions to get WTO litigation support. WTO that China's restrictive policies with the organization 's free trade rules do not match. But a trade war did not end - China will appeal.

The history of the WTO , which is the first time in three big geopolitical players union sued and won the case of rare earth monopoly . China controls 95% of the rare earth market . Largest importer partners - the United States and Europe Day in court successfully proved that Chinese export restrictions purpose is to let the market shortage . And this will lead to higher prices. But Russia's Higher School of Economics, World Economy Department Director Leonid Grigoryev that temporarily in the lawsuit are not yet a winner.

He said: "The lawsuit will be crushed . China is likely to appeal. Will undoubtedly appeal to protract the case , it will be a very long process. Very difficult to resolve conflicts in the WTO . May also be lost. Even if China lost again , there will be a large number of barbed wire to prevent it from going to implement decisions . Most do not understand : what will come to the conclusion , because China is a national economy. If for some reason it decided not to produce anything, restrictions , then do not quite understand how to force China to produce it due to some reason do not want to produce. "

At the same time , the pressure on Beijing is indeed great, but obviously a force. China rare earth exports are strong political and economic leverage . Competitors attempt to deprive it of this leverage. Meanwhile American independent experts acknowledge that if the United States is a rare earth metal market monopoly , would certainly like the Chinese do .

Russian Academy of Sciences Institute of World Economy and International Relations expert Alexander Sally Nowitzki insisted that the rare earth market has become a brutal geopolitical battleground .

He said: "This is too hard for the performance , too successful containment of China conscious . China into the global trading nation in the forefront , and it is relatively considerable financial situation so that the West is extremely fear. Competitors confessed : We totally do not need your success , you want to play a major role , we are very unhappy. "

The problem here is not the WTO , nor is it rare , but China on the same day the United States and Europe is extremely complicated relationship. Far East Institute, Russian Academy of Sciences expert Yakov Do Er Geer believes that in essence are many chess board at the same time take the multi-step move.

He said: " In order to force China to compromise on the earth , it shall issue other economic or political gain some bonus . For example, China is now in the South China Sea and East China Sea territorial disputes encountered very complex . For example, China is extremely important that their main geopolitical rival the U.S. and Japan do not involve themselves in disputes with its neighbors . And for these countries is very important to be able to play in the WTO to force China to expand rare earth export quotas ace . "

Last year, China has carried out a compromise , the rare earth export quota has doubled . China has also set up rare earth metals exchange , which is also on the West and Japan urged China not to press countries export prices according to the market price of rare earth metals to make a positive response . Temporarily WTO arbitration court ignored these arguments against China . But this does not mean that Beijing will withdraw their arguments . Chinese people are very likely to appeal.
