Rare Japanese submarine off the market also developed an early

Recently, the University of Tokyo professor of Earth Resources Hiroshi Kato Thailand, who composed the research team found that Japan South Bird surrounding seabed may exist a large number of rare earths, used in Japan for 230 years. Japanese government officials said the government is planning to conduct a joint study group and the investigation as soon as possible to prepare for these seabed mining of rare earth, the future is expected to achieve self-sufficiency.

Beautiful undersea RE development prospects can be achieved? In an interview with "China Science News" interview with reporters, Deputy Secretary-General Chen Zhanheng Chinese Rare Earth Society, said: "The Japanese submarine development of rare earth from the market still early. Even found a large number of rare earth, at present, has no economic value, but as a resource reserves , technical reserves, or have some significance. "

RE-called "modern industrial vitamin" as important as gold, oil. In 2012 the State Council Information Office issued the relevant data show that China's rare earth reserves accounted for approximately 23% of the world's total reserves, but the proportion of the world supply of rare earth accounted for 90%.

Chinese Society of Rare Earths Tianyuan Group experts have told reporters that the Chinese rare earth production capacity outside of the emergence of China's rare earth industry to bring some challenges, but also alleviate some of the supply pressure for the Chinese, but still far from the rapid constitute huge impact on China's rare earth industry . China in 5-8 years or even longer period of time, will still be the world's main producer of rare earth and commodity supplier.

For Japan to increase research and development of rare earth seabed act Chen Zhanheng that Japan, as a country with scarce resources, resources are dependent on other countries, if there are rare seabed, to achieve self-sufficiency in key resources, is a good way, but the actual There currently fail to meet requirements related to mining technology also. "It can only be a technical reserves, such as ocean nodules technology has been engaged for many years, it has not been able to achieve industrialization."

"Resources on the whole national economy is very important, resource reserves, technical reserves is a long-term national strategy. Japanese economic lifeline constrained resources, it must have its own resources to strategic considerations." Chen Zhanheng believe that this is rare in Japan knows seabed development of technology temporarily mature, but still increase the pace of research causes.
