MIIT proposed Rare illegal "blacklist"

A rare top-down regulation, " Storm" is already underway. Recently, this reporter learned from the Ministry of authority , the Ministry is preparing a " invoices " as a clue, involving domestic rare earth mining , smelting and trading companies for large-scale separation of the special investigation , each registration and inspection of the establishment of rare earth according to management " black list " , categorized management, the establishment of long-term supervision mechanism.

And previous inspection have other is that this rare object remediation , including not only Baotou , Ganzhou , Guangdong and other places of rare earth minerals mining and smelting of rare earth separating enterprises, some of Shanghai , Beijing and other rare earth trading company is also checking out the scope of a total of 1594 households.

"Once rare discovery of illegal activities , in addition to local authorities and other penalties be shut down for rectification , the above rare earth rare earth companies will be registered into the ' blacklist ', including the person in charge of the enterprise (the boss ) , will become the Ministry of Local Government and the focus monitoring object , and linked to local government accountability to prevent ' resurgence ' . "the source said.

As China's important strategic resources , in order to protect resources and the environment , China has adopted a more stringent policy of rare earth mining and production management . But the temptation of huge profits , free in the regulation of "black rare earth" industrial chain has continued to grow, not only damage the environment and waste of resources , but also to integrate rare great difficulty .

Secretary-General of the Chinese Rare Earth Society Ma Rongzhang was worried that the current production capacity of the country illegally has been close to the sum of the rare legitimate enterprises. In 2012 , for example, the South heavy rare earth minerals total of 13,400 tons of mandatory plans . But according to Rare Earth Industry Association statistics, the South mine in 2012 produced at least 37,000 tons , which can be launched Southern smelting ore separation enterprises to obtain 70% of the ion source is unknown.

It is even more worrying is the situation from the past , often to combat the production and sale "black rare " special activities over, criminals began to flourish on the illegal exploitation of some of the rare earth smelting separation plant also & ldquo ; limelight " after reviving. Individual local government local protectionism thinking, combat is not positive, also in violation of national industrial policy unauthorized approval of rare earth smelting and separation of rare earth projects , or even condone acts of illegal production and processing of rare earth.

"We want to solve the problem of repeated , worked out a more effective regulatory mechanisms. "

Foregoing authorities said recently the Ministry has been used since last year 's list of rare earth enterprises invoices , business registration in accordance with the local government sent underground , and requires each local authority to all companies involved in dilute rare earth raw materials procurement , production, processing and downstream customers fill out checklists situation , local self-examination of the first stage of completion of the requirements in October , followed by eight ministries to check the second phase , and finally to establish a database of rare earth enterprises are managed , for some tainted or repeated violations of corporate ( responsible person ) requires local governments to supervise the handling and implementation of the accountability system .

"The first is blocked at source , through the protection and monitoring of mining companies mining and smelting separation , to prevent the illegal exploitation of mandatory plan or ultra rare earth ore mined and oxide products to the market ; followed by a thorough investigation of the flow through the RE sources of trade enterprises purchase and sales records registration investigation , if it is found trade enterprises selling products of unknown origin will be investigated to prevent the trade of rare earth enterprises have become black ' bleached ' tool. " A rare MIIT inspection team official said.

August 26 to 30 , the reporter followed the Ministry of Baotou Rare Earth inspection teams to conduct research learned that some of the iron ore has been illegally engaging in selected fields of rare earth smelting and separation , rare earth prices have been rising in the period earned " bowl full of pots overflow " in under the crackdown local authorities have now been forced to shut down for several months. This reporter saw a number of farms located within Wulateqianqi flotation of rare earth enterprises are involved in " recycling iron , sponge iron " in the name , cleverly evaded government regulators , both within and outside the plant dust and weeds , the scene of rare earth flotation device process is very simple and basic without any environmental protection equipment.

"In order to avoid regulation , these illegal concentrator will choose some sparsely populated, remote areas and the mountains , it also gives us the work of great difficulty . Some plant Basically addition to local reports , there is virtually no way to find . "The local government authorities responsible person has abandoned the open , pointing to a concentrator , said " This place usually do not come into the car , on foot would walk more than one hour , concealment is very strong , they are the first to use a forklift the road leveled and then transported rare earth mine . "

"Our next step remediation efforts for rare earths will increase . In addition to meet the special rectification , but we have to develop the rare earth industry, the introduction of the overall planning of the program , the Baotou Rare Earth industry consolidation to accelerate development of deep processing extension , and to strengthen the Bayan Obo mine tailings and efforts to the management and governance . Moreover once the illegal mining, Pirates ore, smelting and separation , etc. will be severely punished. " Baotou City Vice Mayor Xu Delin said in an interview with reporters .
