Jon Hykawy talk about China's rare earth mining and illegal export quotas

Recent interview with a foreign investment websites Jon Hykawy, he talked about some of the WTO and China's rare earth lawsuits and things about China's crackdown on illegal mining, provides some interesting insights, Jon Hykawy for Stormcrow Capital., President of the company, many years RE investment research and clean energy, Jon Hykawy holds a doctorate in physics. Interview Jon Hykawy mainly expressed in the following views:

First, China's crackdown on illegal rare earth mining can not completely eliminate the illicit production of rare earths

In an interview with Jon Hykawy said that although China plans to supply 40 percent of all combat illegal rare earth away, but the illegal exploitation of the South Mine basically impossible to completely eliminate in China, because the ionic rare earth mine in southern China, is highly fragmented, and in some small villages and hills heads are small workshop production, and it is easy to extract the mineral ions, which makes it even this small workshop after being hit is also very easy to re-start production, but most of this illegal rare earth mining by the local government to protect, so he thinks the one hand, are small workshop production, require little cost and the production of the mine is so expensive, so China can not completely belly absolutely illegal exploitation of the South 方南子 mine. Jon Hykawy said that these small workshop production of illegal rare earth, finally able to go abroad, usually through some legitimate business of the company, of course, the illegal export of rare earths are labeled a variety of labels, "alloy", through some complex procedures, while exports of these products company, to avoid restricted mandatory plans, he believes that China's recent fight against illegal mining may be of such a company may have a substantial impact.

Second, the quota is not gone, just to see it

Hykawy said: think WTO lawsuit against the Chinese rare earth quotas would be China's actual export policy impact is a "delusion" because China through the integration of a large group, have been attributed to the production of rare earths in the hands of a few large state-owned groups to China aluminum, for example, it is actually a microcosm of the entire business of a large group of rare earths, assuming you're a middle-level staff in aluminum, you can follow the instructions to do the top, imagine if you're a sales manager, you responsible for rare earth aluminum business, you got the call that can only export 2,000 tons of rare earth, and you have received an order of 4,000 tons of foreign customers, how would you do this time? I think you can only give you a few customers call and tell them, very sorry, because "production issues" this month, last month promised only export half the amount of rare earths. In fact, this will make China's rare earth exports more opaque and unstable, and at the same time, he felt this rare foreign manufacturers is an opportunity to seize this opportunity, but overseas users on the one hand very seriously stable rare earth products supply, on the one hand they want to buy Chinese rare earth prices. However, customers may eventually be persuaded to pay a higher price pole supply of materials to ensure the safety of the village.
