Rare earth market more market outlook remains sidelines, traders said there may be temporary priceless reported, the current market price is more confusion.

According to Ganzhou region separation plant, said Monday that they have been fully raised praseodymium neodymium, dysprosium, gadolinium-based products offer, the average rate of increase of 0.5-1 yuan / ton. The price increase is mainly due to strict state control of mineral resources, rare earth separation products bullish. Another local separation plant revealed recently on the market traders and metal praseodymium neodymium oxide plant on certain procurement requirements, the current price has increased their supply, with a fare of 28 yuan / ton or more, will not accept less than 24 yuan / ton shipped without fare. Not only praseodymium neodymium oxide prices rising, praseodymium neodymium metal prices are also up slightly, with the current mainstream fare 360,000 yuan / ton, with no fare 310,000 yuan / ton. The rare earth industry insiders, buyers now can accept praseodymium neodymium with fares slightly.

Praseodymium, neodymium oxide market, grass Shen praseodymium have certain procurement inquiries, traders more difficult to find goods, the sale price strong, but buyers can accept up limited range. Neodymium oxide market with fares 28-29 yuan / ton, turnover is not active.

Dysprosium products markets, suppliers and dysprosium iron oxide and dysprosium bullish outlook, despite last weekend dysprosium oxide prices were slightly lower this week, the first day, suppliers, or a slight increase in the price of dysprosium oxide, with votes 150-155 Million / tons.

Waste magnetic markets Monday recyclers generally raise prices 1-2 dollars / kg, the current mainstream scrap recycling price short magnetic stripe 78-82 yuan / kg, long 80-84 yuan / kg, tiles 90-94 yuan / kg. Waste Electrical market, a slight increase in Linyi region recyclers brushless motor scrap price to 76 yuan / month or so, in Jiangsu and Zhejiang provinces brushless recovery price 74,75 yuan / month, there is little change in waste electrical brush. Insiders recyclers now reflect retail investors remained reluctant to ship goods sidelines.

Reporters from the Changchun Institute of Applied Chemistry, learned that Chinese researchers developed a new type of LED light rare earth materials, an effective solution has been unable to break through the international exchange of LED lighting problems, making China the world's only master the technique.

LED lighting is the second incandescent, fluorescent lighting after another revolution, is recognized as the world's most promising high-efficiency lighting industries. LED light source using existing DC as a driver, at work must be approved by the AC and DC power conversion, energy consumption, heat tolerance, and high cost. The AC LED lighting strobe issues in the international arena has not been possible to break.

Changchun Institute Co., Ltd. and Sichuan Sony source collaboration in 2006 new AC LED lighting technology research and development, after six years of unremitting exploration and development, has developed a new type of LED light rare earth materials, recently organized by the Chinese Academy of results identification.

The Group believes that the technology from the source to solve the bottleneck problem of AC LED Strobe and DC and AC drives exist some technical problems. Meanwhile, the results with the existing LED products, compared with a low heat, energy conversion efficiency, small size and other advantages, we can improve the service life of more than 2 times, energy consumption and costs were reduced by 15% and 20%.

At present, the products have passed China and the U.S. Underwriters Laboratories, the Federal Communications Commission, the European unification and EU environmental certification, and exported to America, Canada, Mexico, Spain, Brazil and other countries.

Since mid-June, the domestic prices of light and heavy rare earth oxide stabilized rebound, which is the main varieties of light rare earth oxide, praseodymium, neodymium oxide prices rose more than 10 percent, and the upward trend is accelerating; aspects of heavy rare earth oxide, dysprosium price from mid-June the 1255 yuan / kg up to 1475 yuan / kg, up more than 17%, terbium oxide by the 2550 yuan / kg up to 2950 yuan / kg, up more than 15%. Determine the price of rare earth in our previous fourth quarter last year into the bottom area, this decline has narrowed since the earth, but continued to show a downward trend in mid-May this year, the heavy rare earth prices bottomed out in mid-June to late light rare earth prices also bottoming out, we believe that light and heavy rare earth prices have bottomed out after rare-earth prices marked up to two years of adjustment, we began to look for a new price equilibrium.

Since the current round of price adjustment of rare earth in July 2011 began in May this year has been more than two years, the main varieties of rare earth prices fell more than 80% of rare earth enterprises overseas three consecutive quarters at a loss, we believe that long-term rare earth prices lower than the cost of doing business overseas line is not sustainable. With midstream and downstream businesses restocking, rare earth exports pick up, the gradual recovery of the industry, rare earth prices gradually stabilized rebound.

Overseas production release is limited, rare earth prices rebounded sustainable

From Molycorp2013 in Q1 quarterly perspective, the Q1 quarterly real rare earth oxide production and sales of only 763 tons, according to the current production, we expect this year's total output of 5,000 tons, lower than our expectations, and a row The third-quarter loss. Based on our overseas production of rare earth observation business operating costs, the current rare earth prices have been lower than the cost of overseas enterprises wire. Has been put into operation at current Molycorp's MountainPass the costs, the average cost of production of its REO at 40 U.S. dollars / kg, which has multiple consecutive quarterly loss. We believe that rare earth prices is difficult to maintain long-term cost of doing business in the overseas rare earth line, round rare earth prices rebound relationship is a true reflection of market supply and demand, prices have sustainability.

Of course, we must also see that the declining cost of overseas rare earth mine huge space, if its capacity is fully put into operation, the unit REO expected cash costs will be significantly decreased, and the impact of existing rare earth market.

NdFeB performance greater flexibility, benefit significantly

As we judge this round of rare earth prices are only promote market supply and demand, not an industry policy to promote, so we think the demand for rare earth downstream recovery is more uncertain, especially NdFeB industry, the economy rebounded. In addition, rare earth prices rose sharply with the previous different that the rare earth prices are expected to rise steadily, and the rate of increase of 30% to 40%, prices of rare earth upstream firm's profit contribution is more limited, and NdFeB enterprises due to its relatively strong pricing power, performance, greater flexibility than the upstream, to benefit significantly. Therefore, the current round of rare earth prices rebound, we focus on the positive: a) the heavy rare earth enterprises, including: Rising colored, Minmetals Rare Earth and Xiamen Tungsten; 2) NdFeB enterprises, including: Zhong Ke San Huan, Ningbo Yunsheng and n Sea materials.

Tsutomu Yamaguchi, Japan Iwate University professor functionality JX Nippon Mining and Metals Corporation jointly developed the stone from scrap cars and home appliances magnet high efficiency recovery of rare earth metals technology. The waste was added boron magnet, is heated to 1200 degrees Celsius, the heating of raw material is acidified boron, a mixture of neodymium and dysprosium, iron, and carbon, nickel alloy blocks, etc., and then extracted with hydrochloric acid, such as neodymium, at a temperature of 400 ~ drying temperature of 500 degrees for 1 hour. According to the experiment, the recovered rare earth metal up to 99.5% purity.

Previously, researchers have been hand-stripped abandoned nickel, crushed after adding hydrochloric acid solution to recycle rare earth metals. However, due to hand and an acid reaction, recovery time takes a full day. The new technologies do not peel off due to nickel can be recovered with a half-time completion, and recovery costs.

Professor Yamaguchi current problem is how to remove harmful substances when recovered, once the issue is resolved that the technology will soon be able to get practical.
