According to customs statistics , from January to February 2014 , after Huangpu port of export of rare earth ( including rare earth products ) 261.2 tons , an increase of 94.4% over last year ; worth 84.65 million yuan , down 4.8% ; average export price of 324,000 yuan per ton , fell 51%.

U.S. dollar -denominated , 2014 January-February , exports of rare earths by Huangpu Port value $ 13,850,000 , down 2.2% ; average export price of U.S. $ 53,000 per ton , down 49.7% .

2014 1-2 menstrual main features of Huangpu Port of rare earth exports :

( A ) February exports doubled year on year , the export price has dropped significantly. Since 2014 export volume of rare earths by Huangpu Port continuation of growth in 2013 , two month export 121.9 tons , an increase of 4.7 times . The average export price terms , since 2013 11 menstrual Huangpu Port of rare earth export price hit a new high since 2012 , the average export price from December onwards rapid decline for three consecutive months , which , in February the average export price of 272,000 yuan per ton , down 74.4% , down 26.5% .

Exports accounted for over 80% (b ) the general trade , processing trade exports decrease . 2014 January-February , after Huangpu Port to the general trade export of rare earth 215.5 tons , an increase of 1.8 times , accounting for the same period was 82.5% of total exports of rare earth Huangpu Port . The same period , processing trade export 45 tons , reducing by 19.8% , accounting for 17.2%.

(C ) are mainly exported to the EU, Japan and Hong Kong. 2014 January-February , exports to the EU by the Huangpu Port 110.1 tons , an increase of 1.9 times ; exports to Japan 50 tons , an increase of 5.3 times ; 45.2 tons of rare earth exports to Hong Kong , decrease of 19.7% ; market for these exports accounted for 78.6% of the total . The same period, U.S. exports 28.7 tons , surged 5.1 times , accounting for 11 %.

( Iv) private enterprises and state-owned enterprises as the main export . 2014 January-February , exports of private enterprises through Huangpu Port 124.4 tons , an increase of 2.5 times , accounting for 47.7% ; addition, state-owned enterprises exported 123.3 tons of rare earth , an increase of 44.2% , 47.2% . Foreign- invested enterprises exported 13.3 tons , an increase of one percent (5.1%) .

The current rare earth export prices collapsed mainly due to :

( A ) the impact of the rare earth industry chain of rare earth black formal market . Due to inadequate laws and regulations on rare earth production , circulation of illegal behavior is difficult to cure. Illegal production enterprises rely on illegal mining digging steal to get raw materials in the production process and evade the regulatory environment , coupled with the sale of non-payment of taxes to rely on smuggling , the production cost is very low. Black earth industry chain to make regular product sales are sluggish , increasing the regular production difficulties and market malaise . Illegal poaching , unplanned production have occurred , forming a set of mining, production, circulation , smuggling as one of the chain of black interests seriously disrupted the market order , leading to a significant decline in the price of rare earth products .

(B ) demand and capacity conflicts exacerbated the weak market prices. The past two years , the world economic recovery is slow , demand for rare earths slowdown , the U.S., Japan , the European Union and other major importing countries continued to decrease rare earth rare earth imports. Meanwhile, after the third quarter of 2011 , the domestic rare earth sharp price increases , cost pressures forced some low-end application of rare earth out of the market . In 2012, global demand for rare earths market less than 10 tons, despite the emergence of the global rare earths market demand increased slightly since 2013 , but the increase is far from China's rare earth production capacity to digest . At present, China 's rare earth separation capacity of 400,000 tons , the global demand of 150,000 tons of rare earth oxides . Our annual output reached 20 million tons of rare earth , whether light or heavy rare earth rare earth glut of excess capacity are . Moreover, according to statistics , currently there are 22 companies intend to build capacity planning , total annual output of 69,800 tons , if fully completed by the end of 2014 , the end of China NdFeB production capacity will reach 21.2 percent increase , the market situation will be more is grim.

(C ) technical progress weakens the strength of rare earth consumption . With prices soaring in recent years, rare earth , rare earth enterprises have applied through technological innovation , or reduce the amount of rare earths , or looking for alternatives. Currently, the device is to light rare earth permanent magnet development , although rare devices increased demand , but the demand for total rare but not synchronous growth , and even reduced. In addition , thanks to technological advances , LED lights has replaced the traditional trend of energy-saving lamps . LED lights are much less rare than the required three-color light , which makes the global demand for rare earth phosphors declined significantly.

It is noteworthy that , on one hand , the country 's rare earth industry consolidation to accelerate . January 2014 , in conjunction with the Ministry of Land and Resources , the SASAC and other departments and throughout the 12 main producing rare earth formation competent bodies to convene a special meeting of the Group of large rare earth enterprises , China's rare earth industry mergers and acquisitions has made positive progress in the era of the large group of rare earth has been created . On the other hand , the EU intends to launch an attack on China rare earth issue . In mid-February 2014 , the European Commission Trade Commissioner De Gucht said in an interview with Reuters , the EU will take action to a wide range of Chinese government subsidy programs , in order to resist being unfairly subsidized products into the European market of low-priced and pose a threat to European industry . In addition to subsidies , the De Gucht said in an interview also highlighted the problem of rare earth , claiming that currently does not have the legal basis for challenging China's rare earth policy, but the EU will seek other sources of supply , while China has pledged to meet the EU requirements for rare earths demand.

China's rare earth export restrictions on further appeal WTO slim odds

Details: Category: Rare Earth News; Published on Thursday, 17 April 2014 17:17; Written by HJF; Hits: 1598

Chinese Ministry of Commerce held a regular press conference today , the Ministry of Commerce spokesman Shen Danyang talk about " China's rare earth export policy case" , said the Chinese side will be on April 17 raised to the WTO Dispute Settlement Body crossover appeal , the Chinese side will fully do appellate work . No matter how the outcome of the appeal , China to protect resources , environmental policy objectives will not change .

Which lasted two years, the United States , Japan, EU trade lawsuit against China 's rare to make a preliminary ruling on March 26 , WTO ruled against China , finds China 's rare earth export restrictions and export taxes and other related systems in violation of WTO commitments. Although China may , within 60 days of the WTO Committee of Final Appeal , but the possibility of past cases of view in favor of minimal.

Around the " rare earth export policy ," the US-China trade legal battle is heating up , in order to expand the fruits of victory , the U.S. was again submitted to the WTO appeal on April 8th , and today China is also the first official confirmation of the time for appeal .

Prior to China Nonferrous Association vice president Jia Ming Star spokesman said that at present , the Committee of Experts WTO on Chinese rare earth production management is recognized , because the purpose of management is to protect resources and the environment , but that the export quota tariff management approach does not comply with WTO requirements.

Over the past 20 years , 90 percent of the global supply of rare earths from China . From the perspective of a single trade point of view, China's rare earth export controls does the use of rare earth enterprises in importing countries adversely affected. On the one hand , the export tax to make use of foreign importers and domestic rare earth enterprises are facing different prices. On the other hand , the export quota of rare earth lead to insufficient supply in the international market , increasing the cost of importing enterprises.

After losing our country is facing rare earth quotas cancellation policy , lowered tariffs, liberalization and other rare earth export gate , opened the prelude to a new round of corporate reshuffle . On the one hand , a period of time , all kinds of rare earth products in general prices will fall further , which will directly lead to the closure of some SMEs outs or acquisitions ; on the other hand , for environmental reasons, the government will stimulate industry consolidation on the basis of pre- accelerate large group reorganization process.

China Rare Earth Group , a large high-rise on the phone , " Economic Information Daily" correspondent said that from a business perspective are most worried about is that in the rare earth bubble burst , the rare earth industry as a whole are relatively sluggish performance , the export situation is very weak, once after losing triggered rare earth export control policies canceled , this signal may cause rare earth prices continue to fall , so industry worse.

But even though Europe and other Western countries in the prosecution of Chinese export restrictions , but unfortunately the mining reluctant to sell their strategic resources is also very common phenomenon . After a state such as Canada take on timber exports , " domestic needs test " , that is, only in the country, the state sell timber to meet the internal demand will consider exports. Another example is the U.S. natural gas exports to take " an export license approval ," and so on.

Today, the rare earth market prices stable , basically no significant change in the quotation of prices , some suppliers reflect praseodymium , neodymium , dysprosium products most two days no price adjustment, but the actual transaction price decreased slightly, the next two days may be further price adjustment. Europium oxide market is now the market is weak, not quote changes , lower actual transaction price . There are still many businesses are now reflected in Ganzhou terbium oxide market supply is tight , the recent downward price not much room .

Europium oxide market traders offer recently with relatively stable firm, higher offer in 4200 yuan / kg or more , but there are also manufacturers and traders to reflect the actual transaction price is very low, according to the manufacturers Ganzhou reflect actual transaction price in 4000-4100 yuan / kg , some traders reflect actual transaction price in the 3800-4000 yuan / kg. Baotou Rare Earth Exchange europium oxide prices have been aquiline , as of today, more than 13-point , europium oxide price displayed is 4756 yuan / kg , compared with the March 28 opening price rises has reached more than 18 % less volume , only 148 kg .

When the Ministry of Commerce held a regular press conference today to talk about the " Chinese rare earth export policy case" statements , China will today propose to the WTO dispute settlement body cross- appeal , the Chinese side will make every effort to appeals . No matter how the outcome of the appeal , China to protect resources , environmental policy objectives will not change . Appeal in favor of stability and boost domestic rare earth market confidence, might be interested in the recent rare earth market restrain prices fall much further effect.

[ Shen Danyang ]: We believe that the situation in the second quarter than the first quarter should be good, but it may start from May will have better data reflected.

Foreign trade for the whole year we are confident to achieve the desired objectives , is mainly based on three positive factors: First, the world's economic growth accelerated to promote the international market demand stabilized. April 14 there is a report of the WTO , world trade is expected to grow by 4.7 percent this year , up from 2.1% in 2013 , higher than doubled. Second is to improve China's industrial supporting policies , technical standards continue to improve , with a strong competitive export industries . We believe that as long as the steady recovery in global demand , with the competitiveness of China's export industries , import and export remain slightly higher than the global growth rate is entirely possible. Third, China 's foreign trade since last year, a series of policies and measures implemented by steady growth , adjusting structure is further implemented, help stabilize the import and export business confidence . Recent Ministry of Commerce and General Administration of Customs of thousands of export companies were managers conducted a survey , the results showed that the export outlook for business this year is rising month by month .

In short , the current development of China's foreign trade has a solid foundation , as long as the policies and effective measures to achieve steady growth is conditional , if possible , to increase the coordination of the Ministry of Commerce is currently promoting efforts to actively implement the relevant policies and measures , I believe in the promotion of foreign trade in the next stable growth and structural adjustment will be made positive progress in these two areas.

On WTO case , we note that the United States on April 8 on its appeal my rare earth, tungsten , molybdenum WTO Dispute export management measures related to the WTO dispute settlement body appealed , China will be on April 17 is today presented to the WTO dispute settlement body cross appeal.
