Since ancient times, gold is a symbol of opulence and generosity . One ounce - nearly 30 grams value of more than 1500 U.S. dollars . But gold is not the most expensive metals. 30 g rhodium value $ 7,000 . And especially rare osmium and californium , the market is simply no price . Today, nearly 30 grams californium get only a year in the two reactors in the world .

Today, all the gold is deposited in the library , but there can be no progress in the so-called rare earth metals of today's technology . Scientists call "21st Century gold ." " Ake Sion - rare and precious metals" hole Drew Nowitzki general manager , said: " As mankind enters a rare century . No they can not develop technology. Mobile phones, electronic equipment, electronic notebooks - everywhere use rare earth metals . "

Today, the main supplier of these strategic resources on the world market is China . Where 95% of the rare earth metal mining . But shortly afterwards , China 's monopoly may be challenged .

Russian scientists have developed a new process to get rare earth metals . It turned out that they can get in the chemical laboratory. Laboratory is located in northwestern Russia Perm Krai . No mineral near the area. Local chemists use of ion exchange resins to obtain unique elements from the water. Such resins are generally kitchen filter main filler . It draws all the heavy metal elements.

However, in order to get separated rare earth metals, require selective resins. It can be found in some specific elements of ions in water . For example , gold or platinum ions.

Selective resin manufactured by a unique method , which is distinguished chemists Perm scientific results . They craft a solution - any byproducts smelter and often useless products as raw materials. Almost all of these solutions today known metal .

The main complexity is that many rare earth metals are approximate nature . Therefore , only the manufacturing of a particular element separation resin is extremely delicate and difficult task. From the point of view of the temporary Industries , this invention also only be started. However, many large mining - metallurgical companies have interested in their craft .

In addition to the solution process , the scientists have also suggested the use of water. Because the world's oceans contain water several times more than the surface water REE .

2014 , WTO announced the United States , European Union, Japan and other members of the party complained Chinese exports of rare earth tungsten and molybdenum - Measures ( referred to as " rare case" ) panel report .

The report said that the Chinese government adopted a series of measures to limit the export of these products in violation of WTO rules should be amended to conform to WTO rules . In this regard, the Chinese side expressed regret and has recently decided to appeal the panel report in relation to the WTO Appellate Body .

WTO Panel sure I protect the environment and resources, but I recognized export restrictions

In recent years , Chinese government for the purpose of protecting the environment and exhaustible domestic resources have been put forward a series of measures to limit the export of raw materials such as rare earth , which caused the United States, Europe , and Japan , as rare as a strategic resource and long tradition imported from China "big " their dissatisfaction. But in fact, rare earth resources in China have not rich , but it has long been the world's largest rare earth export country .

With the rapid development of high-tech industries , global demand and rapid growth in the consumption of rare earths . Rare earth resources are non-renewable mineral resources , due to the large number of years , disorderly exploitation , China 's rare earth resources are on the verge of exhaustion . On the other hand , rare earth production, processing a tremendous impact on the ecological environment , environmental pollution caused by its mining more serious . Seen, to some extent, limit exports of rare earths will undoubtedly help to curb the momentum of China 's rare earth mining , consistent with the policy goals of sustainable development.

Many people do not understand , is this a very proper measures are WTO panel did not get recognized , but the judgment against the Chinese ? Some people ask, Does the Chinese government must sacrifice their own resources and the environment to maintain a large number of exports to developed countries do ? For China, this is fair?

In fact , just read the panel report , it is not difficult to find , WTO Expert Group did not identify the Chinese government restrictions on the export of raw materials and rare earth purpose is wrong, not only that, the expert group on the Chinese side to protect exhaustible resources and the environment in mind to be sure that this is not only consistent with the objectives of sustainable development pursued by the WTO , but also China has sovereign rights to manage natural resources. Unfortunately , the Group believes that some restrictions on the export of measures taken by the Chinese side did not achieve the above objective , for some reasonable evidence and views put forward by China were not admissible . Especially in the export tax measures , despite an expert group members supported the Chinese point of view , but in the end the Group of Experts still believe that China is not entitled to invoke GATT Article 20 , " General Exceptions " clause of China 's export tax take defense .

Appeal to the WTO Appellate Body : Hope and anxiety coexist

On appeal , we should carefully analyze the report of the Group , on this basis, the full use of WTO rules and construed in accordance with the law argue utmost to strive for the success of the appeal .

In accordance with WTO rules , the Appellate Body only appeal to review the legal issues of the case , therefore , the ability to use the rule of law , the ability to explain the success of the appeal is crucial . Now it seems that the final result for the appeal , the hopes and fears coexist.

On the one hand , the export tax, an expert group members as well as Russia , Brazil , Argentina and other members of the party 's support for China -related positions so that we see the hope . In the case hearing , the experts believe that , starting from the integrity and overall perspective of interpretation of the WTO Agreement , together with the Chinese side should enjoy the " general exceptions " rights conferred by Article 20 of GATT on the export tax issue with the WTO members , the provision allows members to meet the statutory requirements under the premise of protecting the environment and exhaustible resources , the protection of human , animal and plant life and health and violate WTO rules.

Raw materials in China has been ruling in the case of WTO , WTO Expert Group based only on China ' accession to the Protocol , " the terms of Article 11.3 of export taxes , not identified on the Chinese side has no right to invoke GATT1994 advocate GATT Article 20 on the export tax issue " general exceptions " rights conferred by this new member of the WTO , such as China is obviously unfair . To this end , the Chinese government and international law experts , scholars have been using a variety of occasions , actively using the theory of international law and WTO rules argue. The win support from an expert as well as a number of important WTO members , and indeed made ​​important progress .

But one can imagine , on this issue , the appeals process between China and the United States, Europe, Japan and the inevitably there will be a battle , we must be fully prepared for all aspects of the fight to change the position before the WTO Appellate Body held , China is in favor of the right to invoke GATT Article 20 , " general Exceptions " in terms of export taxes .

In addition, the Group of Experts to ignore certain evidence submitted by the Chinese as well as efforts to protect the environment and exhaustible resources, especially that the Chinese government take to limit the number of rare earth and other views licenses and other export restrictions and WTO rules we should further explain and defend to the Appellate Body .

Of course , from a previous judicial practice WTO Appellate Body ruling to overturn the possibility of the Group of Experts was not great, which is why we worry for the outcome of the appeal . But even so, should not be shaken, even give up fighting for the rights of determination and confidence , because , after all, is an important opportunity to appeal to reiterate our views and positions .

We should also re-examine the execution and implementation of policy measures

Meanwhile , at home, our government departments and local should urgently re-examine whether there are areas for improvement restrict the export of rare earth and other raw materials and concrete implementation of policies and measures to implement the process .

For example , in accordance with the requirements of the WTO rules and the " principle of good faith " in international law , at the same time should also restrict the export restrictions on domestic production and consumption , export restrictions , if on the one hand , while on the other hand the domestic production and consumption is increasing , this will form the international trade " arbitrary, disguised discrimination ," which is not allowed by WTO rules .

In particular it should be noted that, after the central government has formulated policies , some local governments and enterprises only their own petty , openly or covertly continuing large number of mining rare earths , the so-called "policies , under the measures ." This is not only with the national environmental protection efforts and contrary to the relevant decision-making , but also invited heavy criticism , be evidence of another attack China 's rare earth policy.

In addition, to implement the protection of the environment and exhaustible resources policy, between the central government departments, relevant policies and measures between central and local government should further be coordinated , absolutely avoid fragmented, inconsistent rulemaking situation . This is the uniform implementation of WTO agreements and the principle of transparency requires members to assume the obligations in this regard , we have a lot of work to do .

In short, the rare case gives us a lot of inspiration and reflection , hope and worry exist , but for our future development of environmental policy and legislation to promote scientific, fine, unification is concerned , is not a bad thing.

It is understood that the Max Planck Institute for Quantum Optics (MPL) team of experts at the recent success of the first single crystal rare earth ions precise positioning and accurate measurement of the energy state of its quantum mechanics. This study makes quantum information stored in the ion possible future development of quantum computers will have a significant contribution.

Worldwide, many scholars are studying the future to build a quantum computer module. Among them, the quantum system is a key element , quantum dots or light absorption defect ( color center ) is currently the focus of attention of many researchers . However, the light emitted by the rare earth ions are very small and difficult to detect . With precision laser and microscope technology experts after more than six years of in-depth study , yttrium silicate crystals in the trivalent praseodymium ions (Pr3 +) to pinpoint a few nanometers , and with unprecedented precision measuring its optical properties.

Scientists use a laser to excite ions in the single crystal , and observe how they after some time emit energy in the form of light again . Due to the rare earth ions by thermal and acoustic vibration crystals is not strong , some of its unusually stable energy state , you need more than a minute before returning to the ground state , which is more than most of today's studies of quantum systems millions of times a long time . Different information is stored in the quantum energy states of an atom or ion , praseodymium ion as a quantum computer memory .

Researchers future nano- micro resonator antenna and strengthening the Pr signal hundreds or thousands of times smaller than the single ion response 100 photons per second , then the ion signal can be seen more easily .

Today, the rare earth market prices of some products continue to shock down , continued sluggish demand , turnover deserted. Downstream products are praseodymium , neodymium , dysprosium, gadolinium , europium, terbium and so on. Which praseodymium neodymium downward slightly, but some businesses offer slightly down to mainstream price points .

Dysprosium products, businesses today continue to have lowered the dysprosium oxide and dysprosium iron prices , relative to the current market price of dysprosium oxide , there has been a significant decline last week , comprehensive business feedback dysprosium oxide prices now more concentrated in 1.6 million yuan / ton in the vicinity , there are some 158 million low- emergence of dysprosium iron prices dropped to around 1.65 million yuan / ton. Along with dysprosium , europium, gadolinium , terbium oxide as well as the decline of the offer, and now according to some traders said gadolinium oxide is now shipping prices around 14.5-15 yuan / ton, in order to obtain a small profit , only to find more low-cost sources. Held in the current weak demand , competitors and more rare earth industry , but also to prevent the risk of decline in prices, many traders had to look for ultra low supply everywhere , all aspects of the business profits are on the decline .

Europium, terbium oxide , increasing price trend down , the lowest volume small . Currently part of the business by now I know that europium , terbium oxide shipments difficult , and occasionally received purchase inquiries, lower prices more serious. Europium, terbium oxide poor demand , vendors think the price outlook or further downstream. Currently comprehensive market feedback, europium oxide prices to 3700-3800 yuan / kg , terbium oxide with votes at around 3000-3050 yuan / kg , so the price is slightly lower than last week 50-100 yuan / kg.

U.S. Department of Energy 's Ames Laboratory researchers found that in certain special circumstances like the rare earth magnetic iron can produce , but also provide raw materials for a new license and easier to obtain for generators and motors . The researchers said the discovery of high-strength permanent magnets used in hybrid car motors currently offers the possibility to produce magnetic iron and permanent. Hybrid car motors and permanent magnet electromagnet transformed into mechanical motion into electricity . Although iron can produce magnetic , but still want to REE into an industrial magnet , but the biggest challenge is the high price of rare earth ore and limited quantity , it is difficult to meet the demand . However , the lab's researchers said ferromagnetic of nitrogen can . But because the magnetic appears only at low temperatures , and therefore did not achieve a breakthrough in industrial production . This is just a basic scientific advances , technological breakthroughs for the future indicate a path . I hope this discovery will help in the automotive and high-tech alternative to the rare element used in industry . Source: China metal mesh
