Extensive mode of development of rare earth industry management continued to upgrade

" China's rare earth after 50 years of development , has become the world's largest rare earth production , application and exporter, dominate the global rare earth industry. However, due to the extensive mode of development for a long time , there has been excessive and indiscriminate digging , waste of resources and environmental damage and other issues. " Wang Weimin , deputy director of the State Council Counsellors' Office has said the 2013 China Rare Earth Forum .

Deep-rooted problems to be solved

May 2011 , the State Council issued the " Opinions on Promoting the sustainable and healthy development of rare earth industry " ( hereinafter referred to as "Opinion" ) , after more than two years , China's rare earth industry management has made significant progress has been initially realized standardized and orderly development of rare earth resources , smelting separation and market order flow , and establish a unified, standardized and efficient trade management system.

Management system gradually improved. Currently, many provinces and cities , and autonomous regions in the department set up a rare public letter to the office , focusing on producing rare earths is also equipped with a full-time staff , the rare earth industry, regulatory agencies and gradually improve ; Meanwhile , relevant departments have been put forward and implemented the rare earth mining , production and export plans , environmental and industry access management systems , such as the rare earth industry management system basically sound .

Order to further regulate the industry . 2011 and 2012 , the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology jointly with relevant departments to carry twice the rare earth industry is continuing special rectification actions , to identify violations of more than 600 exploration and exploitation since dismantled 14 illegal mining sites , about 90 more than mine separation and smelting enterprises stop production for rectification, identified 14 cases of smuggling , in key areas of the business and also identified a number of illegal persons responsible . Since August this year , in conjunction with the Ministry of Public Security , Homeland seven departments launched a special campaign to combat illegal behavior of rare earth production, mining, circulation .

Industry to accelerate the pace of integration . According to the " Opinions" , the Ministry of Industry together with relevant departments on the basis of in-depth investigation and study, study proposed the formation of large enterprise groups RE proposals and actively promote the formation of large enterprise groups . Currently , the industry has a long-term situation of small scattered significant change has initially formed a number of sets of resource extraction , smelting and separation, processing applications , technology research and development as one of the major rare earth group .

Rapid application development industry . In recent years, relevant departments to increase the utilization of rare earth resources , environmental transformation , high-end application technology development and industrialization of support. September this year , the Ministry in conjunction with the implementation of the financial sector in 2013 to adjust the rare earth industry , a special review of the upgrade project , scheduled to be issued today . Meanwhile , the industry formed the focus of rare earth enterprises in close cooperation with research institutions , and actively develop new technologies, new processes , and accelerate the pace of industrial development in a good atmosphere , so that speed up industrial restructuring ; process equipment and technology level ; -end application of rare earth industry has been development , technical strength and scale of the industry significantly enhanced.

Inspector of the Ministry of raw materials , the State Office of Rare JiaYinSong at the meeting said: "Overall, the management of China's rare earth industry achieved positive results , but the industry has long accumulated deep-rooted problems have not been fundamentally resolved. "

At present, China's rare earth industry basically stable , the main production and export of rare earth products does not appear to shrink, but the influence of domestic rare earth market prices fall , the main business income and import and export trade volume decreased, business efficiency is not high.

Although rare earth prices are a major factor in the market downturn , but the extensive mode of development , resource utilization efficiency is not high, the separation of smelting serious excess capacity , high-end application development lag, serious ecological damage to the environment and other issues can not be ignored . For example , illegal, illegal mining production is still quite serious ; reselling illegal rare earth minerals , black markets, smuggling and other export phenomenon ; regulation in some areas are not implemented, some places from local interests, illegal mining, over plans to take unplanned production acquiesce , causing regulatory failure , the policy is not in place ; need to further optimize the industrial structure , the primary smelting separation of excess low-end applications , the lack of high-end industrial applications , the core technology of the kinds of situation has not fundamentally changed.

Industry management to be strengthened

At present, China's rare earth industry is facing structural adjustment to achieve the coordinated development of downstream industries task very difficult. Meanwhile , with the rapid development of strategic emerging industries , such as high-tech industry , the next period of time , the demand for rare earths will continue to increase , for the protection of a steady supply of resources, the need to properly handle resource development and environmental protection, primary processing relationships with high-end applications , the orderly development of resources , effective protection of the environment , sustainable development of the industry virtuous circle. In this regard, JiaYinSong think , need to further strengthen and improve industry management .

First, continue to increase the fighting rule of non- work efforts. From the beginning of the first phase of special rectification of August this year , the illegal trade in rare earth minerals unplanned , over plans to produce in order to carry out the comprehensive utilization of resources in the name of rare earth smelting separation phenomenon is still more prominent in some places also found significant lawlessness . In this regard, for alleged serious violations of local law and corporate supervise the handling , a catch in the end ; right around to supervise the handling of special rectification conduct a joint inspection of liability may not be implemented , remediation work places unfavorable criticism ; make fighting rule non-working normalization, will issue invoices rare 1594 enterprises archiving storage, dynamic monitoring , category management , focusing on supervision , thorough investigation of typical cases , smuggling crackdown ; further improve the reporting system , give full play to the media and public oversight effect.

The second is to implement territorial supervision responsibilities. Establishment of light rare earths and heavy rare earth , fighting rule of non- regional linkage mechanism , the implementation of the unified deployment , coordination, and unified action ; support key RE areas through industrial , fiscal and tax policy , and fully mobilize the local government initiative, effectively protect the development of good earth resources and environmental protection ; clear mission objectives, improve the supporting measures to implement the territorial regulatory responsibility ; increase publicity and accountability efforts, invited the news media and advocacy association of good practices , exposure typical cases , be invited to monitor the individual local authorities suspected illegal negligence , collusion and other illegal activities , severely punished.

The third is to accelerate the formation of large rare earth enterprise groups. Ministry in conjunction with relevant departments to fully mobilize under the enthusiasm of the premise, insisted the Government to promote , market-oriented operation , with enterprises as the main assets as a link to promote mergers and acquisitions, adhere to an integrated, coordinated development, adhere focused, relying on key rare earths enterprises , increase integration, integration focused separation of rare earth mining and smelting enterprises , resolve excess capacity , insisted national unity, maintaining stability , and actively promote the formation of large enterprise groups rare work .

Fourth, to promote industrial restructuring and upgrading of rare earth . Verification of environmental protection , industry access as the starting point, to promote the rare earth enterprises to increase investment in environmental protection , improve resource utilization and environmental protection levels ; formation process in large groups , in line with consolidation , cleaning, principles of promotion , closed batch conversions group , the transformation of a group to support the separation of enterprise transformation , resolve excess capacity ; take advantage of the rare earth industrial upgrading restructuring , technological innovation and other emerging industries of strategic policies to support the development of rare earth new materials and application technology , the development of high-end applications industries, promote industrial upgrading .

Fifth, strengthen environmental access and program management . Continue to strictly enforce the rare earth industrial pollution emission standards, the rare earth industry access conditions , rules and regulations and other measures mandatory program management , environmental inspection of rare earth enterprises and industry access conditions to get into the rare earth enterprises mandatory plan assessment criteria ; norms integrated rare earth resources the use of project management , including waste recycling, included in the program management approach ; linking rare earth mining production planning and invoices , production planning and sales unity.

Sixth, to further improve rare earth regulations. Rare as soon as possible and implement regulations, rare earth production and operations management approach , building industry-wide management system ; increase resource tax reform policy environment , reasonably reflect the cost of rare earth resources and the environment , the formation of rare earth prices reasonable mechanisms to increase local revenue, resources to promote the production and environmental restoration .
