"Uncle Sam can sit on a gold mine!" U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) Mineral Resources Program Director Minot (Larry Meinert) said. Rare earth supply and demand in the current situation in the breakout, get rid of dependence on China, the United States is being launched nationwide search for rare earth elements in action.

According to the AP, such as lanthanum and neodymium like 15 kinds of rare earth elements as early as in the American West during the gold rush has been found, but has not pay attention to. As electronic product size becomes smaller and smaller, and become more sophisticated, the demand for rare earth surge in 10 years. These elements allow the battery to become more portable, allowing fluorescent screen lights up for the touch screen to add color.

Today, the U.S. government started searching and testing rock mine plan, Geological Survey and the Department of Energy to send geologists to explore the country, all from the U.S. West Yellow Gold mines have been abandoned gravel and ore samples were collected for testing. Minot stressed that if the existence of these rare earth gravel, you can create a win-win situation in many respects, such as the United States can gradually get rid of dependence on Chinese rare earths, and get past the little-known natural resources.

Rare earth elements in the lanthanide series 15 is not entirely uncommon, but not enough focus, and often closely associated elements, so the cost of mining and high resolution.

The United States is the world's second largest country of rare earth resources, second only to China, but for environmental and cost concerns, the United States many years ago to stop mining, on behalf of a large number of imports from China rare earth products.

"Before we did not dig their own, is that sufficient to meet demand from the Chinese imports." USGS Mineral and Environmental Resources Science Center Director Ridley (Ian Ridley) pointed out that "the U.S. economy is now rare to become a weakness."

Today, dysprosium oxide rare earth market soaring again, praseodymium oxide, neodymium, praseodymium neodymium metal prices as a whole slightly upward, suppliers have indicated praseodymium neodymium bad quote now. Current spot market vendors will praseodymium neodymium metal quotations raised to 430,000 yuan / ton, according to Ningbo supplier said it praseodymium neodymium metal prices is not good at, because the current praseodymium neodymium price is higher than the downstream procurement manufacturers heart expectations prices, to raise its offer, downstream customers can not accept. Do not raise prices stated are neodymium praseodymium oxide market, difficult to purchase raw materials for metal production. Currently praseodymium neodymium offer up spot is difficult to purchase, manufacturers unacceptable at a lower price of praseodymium neodymium spot.

Erbium oxide market price after a few days ago after a sudden increase slightly down, with the current mainstream fare 31,32 yuan / ton, traders said there Ganzhou region, in a period of a few days ago the market volatility has been out more goods that the market outlook is uncertain.

Lanthanum, cerium oxide, lanthanum oxide, cerium oxide recent 395 with a ticket price of 29,000 yuan / ton, 39 lanthanum oxide, cerium oxide with votes 28,000 yuan / ton, the trend is relatively stable lanthanum oxide, cerium oxide prices fluctuate slightly a one thousand or so.

Europium, terbium market, recent market price stable, some suppliers minor adjustments. Currently europium oxide mainstream in 420-430 yuan / ton, terbium oxide, the overall market price rose slightly to 360-370 with votes yuan / ton or so.

Dysprosium type of market, prices have again today dysprosium oxide intense sharp rise, according to Fu Bao understand, Ganzhou region yesterday with a ticket offer 2.15 million yuan / ton suppliers have raised the price 2.25 million yuan / ton, there are some suppliers could accept with votes 2.2 million yuan / ton, a small ship. Some traders have reflected the intention of purchasing, you can now accept without vote 1,850,000 yuan / ton price revenue dysprosium spot. Dysprosium iron present with ticket prices soared, has raised 2.3 million yuan / ton. The trend of late, there are still people in the industry is bullish.

Waste magnetic markets for two days the market recovery prices stable, recyclers remain Prev offer. More attention to the market traders short repeals magnetic trend, according to Fu Bao understand and analyze, short week price volatility magnetic strip will not waste too much ups and downs limited. Waste Electrical market today, brushless recovery price 79,80 yuan / month, and the day before yesterday brushed prices were flat.

"Smuggling" as a legal concept charges, in the rare earth business circles, became vocabulary? Recently, the state of the rare earth industry, strike hard, some responsible persons suspected of smuggling away cooperate with the investigation by the local public security bureau.

"This is not new as long as there are profits, someone will take the risk." One yuan rare earth industry insiders told reporters.

Rare Earth Industry Association, Ma Rongzhang publicly stated last year, in 2011, foreign import statistics than the number of rare earth exports to China Customs statistics 1.2 times higher than the number that smuggling is a normal amount of 120% of exports, "the amount of smuggling now may not be so high, but there must smuggling. "

Recently, this reporter unannounced visits to an export freight business, I learned the details of their smuggling of rare earths.

Profit more than 50% to avoid customs

"This circle where, if strict accordance with national policies define words, many places are 'unclean'." The rare earth industry, told reporters the case said.

He said "no clean", referring to the choice of private mines, smelting separation production targets over production (industry, also known as a side job), there is smuggling.

Why would smuggling of rare earth Eliminated? The industry believes that, because of "profit dictates."

At present, the domestic franchise invoice no private mining of rare earth crackdown increasing separation midstream smelting enterprises will not rush to use this limelight private mines, traders cautious hoard goods, not domestic sales. The export, and if through customs tax, the profit will be greatly reduced; relationship if exports through intermediaries, profits can guarantee at least 50%.

Cerium oxide to heading 2,846,101,000 example, each kg of 15% export duty, value added tax of 17%. According to information provided by rivers Consulting, June ceria average export price of 8.69 U.S. dollars / kg, or about 53,000 yuan / ton. The cerium oxide in the domestic price, but is 2.6 yuan / ton, the export price doubled.

According to the sources, foreign businessmen will understand the domestic rare earth price quotes. If they think $ 8.69 / kg price is too high, demand for lower prices, then, domestic traders to make up the difference out of pocket only, which is obviously not the pen good deal. However, to avoid customs not the same, domestic traders can use more than 30,000 yuan / ton price to sell, some of fees paid to brokers to ensure their own profits at least 50% or more. Generate demand for such smuggling.

Rare is "entrained" exit

Wong (sound) is a person in charge of export freight companies, although quite young, but talk about "sensitive goods" business (smuggling of rare earth) is very skilled.

"You want to export cerium oxide, lanthanum, cerium carbonate such over 20,000 yuan / ton cheaper rare earth, we have to charge 3,500 yuan per ton fee, if those are the heavy rare earth oxide, erbium, fees naturally higher." Mr Wong told reporters, "This price is not high, we will earn 600 yuan per ton to 800 yuan, if large, it can be considered favorable."

Wong export freight companies where both agents clothing, bags such common goods export declaration, but also agents of rare earth, charcoal such "sensitive goods." They are mainly from the Guangdong Whampoa of Hong Kong and Shenzhen, Shekou Port exit, the containers transported to Hong Kong and then help mainland exporters way of fixed positions, shipped overseas buyers.

"Domestic transportation costs requires companies themselves out." Wong said, they are responsible for re-export from the Mainland to Hong Kong and then shipped to foreign link.

He knew entrainment these "sensitive goods" out off the seriousness, but he very confidently said, "We are one day made 3,4 units Hong Kong car (Hong Kong and mainland customs clearance logistics vehicles), rare earth shipments of up to 10 a day ton. "loaded more than one company per container cargo. He is 20 tons per day, for example, 18 tons loaded textile toys, entrainment of two tons of rare earth, rare earth to the declaration on behalf of talc.

The industry had told reporters that this is a means of smuggling of rare earth. Price of up to several hundred thousand tons of heavy rare earths, mixed together with flour or talcum powder to bypass customs inspection, the flow of the customs, and then refined in a foreign country. Colorless, odorless powder mix together, it is difficult to distinguish.

Mr Wong said, that line is very risky, a Hong Kong car one million yuan, if a problem of domestic cars and drivers have been seized, the driver and then go take a couple of years in prison, then the company will pay nearly $ 200 million.

"These private live, we can do it, you can not do what we do not hard embrace." Wong said, "within its capabilities, we can promise to the customer, such as one day out of a few tons of cargo can, if dozens of tons of goods to be once we finished out, it certainly can not do. "
