Guangxi illegal mining of rare cases of frequent urgent and concerted efforts

Guangxi is rich in rare earth resources has not been large-scale mining , but many criminals motivated by high profits , have this ready , Guangxi has been investigated in recent years across a large number of illegal mining of rare cases . Many grassroots cadres and the masses called for law enforcement agencies should be formed as soon as possible together to resolutely crack down on illegal mining of rare earths , and actively promote the development and protection of deep processing and utilization of rare earth resources.

Since May 2010 , according to the Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region rare special rectification action plan to reflect reporting requirements and circumstances around the city , Guangxi Cenxi , Guigang land department eradicated five rare Daxin Town , Sanbao , have been found in the remediation of illegal activities Pirates of the mining point of destroying a variety of mining machinery and equipment more than 70 units, transformers 5, destroying collection pool , pool 63 , the destruction of a number of raw materials and the severance of employees 60 people.

However, this round of remediation action also was not long before the end of July 2011 , Guangxi Teng County land department of law enforcement officers to ban unlicensed production of rare earth mine 6 . By the end of November 2011 , Wuzhou City in Guangxi Cangwu County Pozhen马王村illegal mining of rare earth mine because criminals triggered landslides along the accident , nine people died in the accident potential illegal . 2011 County of Guangxi ban illegal poaching of rare earth mines 25 , semi-finished products confiscated and destroyed on the spot about 1000 kg of rare earth ore , 20 tons of ammonium sulfate .

While law enforcement agencies around Guangxi phenomenon of illegal poaching ongoing fight to ban , but the last two years many illegal mines reappeared. August-September this year , the department of land in the vicinity of Fangchenggang Fu Long Township farm a small peak point of illegal mining facilities in accordance with the law of the clean-up ; Wuzhou City Land Department investigation of illegal mining of rare earth point two , all be investigated and banned.

According to some basic level of law enforcement personnel, the majority of these potential illegal criminals from Jiangxi , Guangdong and other places , they often choose inaccessible Barren or at very low prices from the hands of unsuspecting villagers rented mountain implement illegal mining. Pirates of the mining sites generally use "in situ leaching " process mining of rare earth , from the top of the vertical holes perfusion ammonium sulfate solution , and then at the foot of the lateral holes out of the solution for the exchange of the collection, then this part of the solution is added together ammonium bicarbonate and other raw materials , after the chemical reaction will be something like a white precipitated cement , dry water pressure through the filter , it produced a mixture of rare earth .

Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region Department of Land and Resources Department official confirmed that mine management , currently only a rare earth mine in Guangxi whole mining certificates and mining range is limited in some areas Chongzuo , so in other places no doubt mining is illegal .

In recent years, rare earth resources in Guangxi were frequent cases of illegal mining , enforcement campaigns have achieved some success around , but not eliminate the root causes of the phenomenon of illegal mining , the outcome of the fight against the current regulation is not stable. Analysis of the industry , the current illegal mining of rare earth repeatedly played without a break , principally for the following reasons :

First, most of the southern Guangxi ionic rare earth mine, located at the surface and low mining costs and profits are high . Some law enforcement officials told reporters that the construction of a small mountain in the countryside of rare earth mining sites need to invest about 20 million, including fees paid to the villagers venues , road fees, construction costs , chemicals and labor charges , but the 2011 mix rare purchase price " dry rare earth" once reached 200,000 yuan per ton , " wet rare earth" around 42,000 yuan per ton , after these occurrences can be built around one and a half to recover costs .

According to insiders , the first half of 2011 to 2012 , the price per ton of rare earth rose rapidly through the stir , the highest of over 37 million , spawned a huge temptation . Law enforcement personnel often just tear down illegal mines pipes , sheds , smashed diesel and other facilities, night time miners blamed reinvent the wheel .

Second, low-cost illegal , it is difficult to be able to ban impunity . Teng County Land Bureau , deputy director Wong Yiu Choi et al , due to limitations of law enforcement authority , the crackdown is still insufficient , the point is just a lot of Pirates of the mining ban , destroyed , confiscated , fines , etc., but criminals often go unpunished , not impunity , so that law enforcement staff very helpless. Some illegal mines are not registered in the business sector , the boss is often behind the scenes , make only a few workers in the mines speaking wherever he goes , law enforcement agencies deal with the mine could not deal with the responsible person .

Third -protection awareness of national mineral resources is not strong cadres and the masses in many places , and some even ill. Has investigated a large number of cases of illegal poaching , the illegal miners either with forest land or mining , are not obtain legal formalities. Pingnan some law enforcement officials told reporters that the mine owners often only deal with the village some villagers even at very low prices to the mountains, the land rent down , and known as " do not destroy forest land that has run out ." , some cadres and villagers lack of legal awareness of mineral resources protection is often tempted to immediate , direct condone the illegal mining of rare earths .

In response, Teng County , CENXI grassroots law enforcement officers and other places suggested by the local government organization established land, environmental protection , public security , electricity, industry and commerce and other agencies of law enforcement groups , strengthen coordination in the form of a continuous multi-sectoral joint law enforcement , deep combat , to develop improve the relevant regulatory measures to establish a long-term supervision mechanism to strengthen inspection efforts on the continued implementation of mine discovered blow ban to prevent the resurgence of illegal poaching behavior .
