Leveraging green energy industry demand for rare earths

Benefit from the country to vigorously promote energy conservation and environmental protection industry, the first quarter of this year, with a high degree of correlation energy saving light rare earths to increase sales, the price of rare earth elements appear to stabilize the situation.

In the first quarter, operating income of northern rare earth 1.692 billion yuan, an increase of 56%. Increase in sales revenue was mainly due to rising product prices, praseodymium, neodymium, lanthanum products while increasing sales. The above products are mainly used for wind power, frequency conversion motor, new energy vehicles, petroleum cracking, automobile exhaust gas treatment other energy-saving and environmental protection industries.

In accordance with the "Air Pollution Prevention Action Plan" recently issued by the State Council, China's refined oil will continue to accelerate upgrading the quality of the national special action. Improving oil upgrading, automobile exhaust governance will directly boost spending lanthanum. It is understood that lanthanum is mainly used in the manufacture of rare earth catalytic cracking material, used in the oil separator, flue gas desulphurization and denitrification, automobile exhaust gas treatment, nickel-hydrogen batteries and other environmental fields. According to deputy general manager of the Northern Rare Earth International Trade Company Huang Shaodong, a quarter of sales in North lanthanum cerium rare earths grew more than 10%, the main reason is increased demand for energy-saving and environmental protection lanthanum.

By the end of April this year, the National Energy Board announced that the China Wind Power "second five" planning objectives ahead of schedule, because the proportion of wind power in China's energy structure is increasing, but also the direct drive wind power equipment, especially on the core material NdFeB permanent magnet direct drive generator equipment needs. At the same time, the Ministry of Finance, Ministry of Science, the Ministry and the National Development and Reform Commission recently issued "on the 2016--2020 promote the use of new energy vehicles in the financial support policy," the notice, and whether it is a pure electric car or plug-in hybrid is Application of rare earth synthesizer, its control systems, battery systems and power systems require extensive use of rare earth elements, especially lanthanum, cerium, praseodymium, neodymium and other light rare earth elements.

The industry believes that the current rare earth materials research and development related to the production of energy-saving and environmental protection is still in its infancy, as China gradually saving and environmental protection industry into a new pillar industry, market demand for rare earth new materials will continue to increase substantially.

First discovered rare earth mine in Henan Province

Reporters learned from the Henan Provincial Department, Nuclear Industry Geological Bureau in Henan Province has made a major breakthrough in Xixia County in Nanyang City Taiping Town prospecting, preliminary estimates, found that more than 10 million tons of rare earth resources, to achieve the scale of medium-rare earth deposits. This is by far the Henan first discovered rare earth deposits, fill the gaps in Henan Province rare earth minerals prospecting work.

According to reports, the Nuclear Industry Geological Bureau in Henan Province's commitment to "peaceful town Xixia County in Henan Province rare earth mine uranium census" project in Henan Province Geological Exploration Fund in 2011 to support the project. Since the project started, Nuclear Industry Geological Bureau of Henan Province, the backbone of the organization, to carry out painstaking exploration. Preliminary investigation, the deposit has three distribution containing rare earth belt, is a light rare earth mine, cerium, lanthanum, neodymium LREE-based. It has been demonstrated that the project area still has a large deep prospecting potential.

Henan Provincial Department deputy director Zhang Liao said rare earth mine in Henan Province Xixia first discovered rare earth deposits, which is a breakthrough in Henan Province, the implementation of "358" since the strategic actions prospecting, Henan Province, for the promotion of the "three rare "(by the mineral resources of rare metals and rare earth elements scattered elements of) mineral prospecting, prospecting strategic plan of action to complete the objectives are of great significance.

It is understood that, because of its unique electron shell of rare earth structure and good performance light, electricity, magnetism, catalysis, etc., are widely used in petrochemical, metallurgical machinery, electronic information, energy, environmental protection, national defense and high-tech materials, such as the national economy and modern science The fields, known as "industrial vitamins", is an important strategic mineral resources. In China is mainly distributed in Inner Mongolia, Jiangxi, Guangdong, Guangxi and other areas, had not been found in Henan rare earth deposits. Rare earth resources between 100 thousand to 500 thousand tons by the medium-sized deposits.

RE prices slightly lower steady lift out individual quotes

The current trend to stabilize rare earth market dominated most products, such as praseodymium and neodymium mixed metal oxide, praseodymium, neodymium oxide single multi no significant fluctuations in market prices, dysprosium, gadolinium individual businesses offer products on the market a slight adjustment, but also on the whole are also on low-cost, businesses wait and see the market or offer to maintain last week's levels, not the whole action.

Currently gadolinium products low steady, adjust the basic 1,000 yuan / ton, the current gadolinium iron there is a business case based on their volume slightly rose to 92,000 yuan offer / ton, last week the price of 91,000 yuan / ton, Currently on the market price is more stable gadolinium oxide at about 80,000 yuan / ton.

Currently dysprosium products market, with some businesses understand by now dysprosium is still concentrated in 160 yuan / ton, about 1.65 million dysprosium-iron with a ticket / ton, but there is the case of individual businesses offer slightly raised, if businesses oxide dysprosium increased from 1.62 million to 1.65 million, from 1.67 million offer dysprosium iron raised to 1.7 million yuan / ton, but the actual turnover of the overall market situation temporarily improved obvious, dysprosium iron there are no votes in the business offer of about 1.45 million yuan / ton , less than last week's 1.47 million.

Rare earth resource tax reform to start businesses to wait and see

From May 1, 2015, the rare earths, tungsten, molybdenum resource tax amount levied by the change from ad valorem, and in accordance with the principle of no increase in the corporate tax rate be reasonably determined. Today, the past two weeks, reflecting the industry's point of view, the affected market supply and demand, the effect of the current tax reform has not been fully released, enterprises are facing the pressure is still large.

Rare earth resources tax to push the guide price

The tax reform is the second after January 1 rare earth export quotas, export duties and rare cancellation policy while another heavy news started. Tax reform policy announced 10 working days, Ganzhou Rare Earth Industry Association officially on May 11 will guide ionic rare earth ore price increases of 10,000 yuan / ton, 17-19 yuan / ton.

For changes in costs, assistant general manager of the rare earth industry group Guangdong Province Hu Xun Chang calculations: "In the south of mixed rare earth price of 120,000 yuan / ton, for example, the resource tax reform before tax 22,500 yuan / ton, plus mineral compensation (120,000 yuan / ton * 0.04 = 4800 yuan / ton), a total of 27,300 yuan / ton after the tax reform, the first mineral compensation canceled, actual resource tax of 120,000 yuan / ton * 0.27 = 32,400 yuan / increase in tons better when the market price once the rise, resource tax rate will actually paid proportionally, the cost will certainly be higher than the market downturn when. "

How has signed a contract for the implementation of tax reform policies of rare earth products, the Deputy Secretary-General Chen Zhanheng China Rare Earth Industry Association, said: "In accordance with this resource tax adjustment document, has signed the contract is not part of the implementation of the required resources to pursue the new tax, this Before taxes are calculated according to the new standard rate of VAT calculation. "

The market turnover is still under pressure

Ganzhou rare earth separating a responsible person said, dysprosium current price of 161-162 yuan / ton, but in fact the purchase cost of 170 yuan / ton or more, downstream from the oxide material are basically at a loss.

This cost price inversion condition leads the market traded flat, Deputy Secretary-General Chen Zhanheng China Rare Earth Industry Association, said: "The current market is a buyer's market of rare earth enterprises to inventory pressure is relatively large, but many companies have been losing money, the transaction situation is more stalemate. "

The future is expected to stabilize rare earth prices rise

For the current production of rare earth enterprises operating conditions, some of Ganzhou rare earth separating enterprises responsible person said, has been a part of the downstream business was discontinued, there are some enterprises in preparing product transformation. Indeed, through the 2011 prices rose after a sharp expansion of production capacity, significantly more than the market demands, the market needs to go through a brutal phase-out period to recover gradually achieve a balance.

In reference to the reaction of rare earth downstream tax reform, Chen Zhanheng said the price reflects the impact of changes in the cost of rare earth resource tax reform will NdFeB production enterprises enterprise required praseodymium, neodymium, terbium, dysprosium and other varieties, the implementation of new resources tax, no increase of prices of these products, but there is a slight downward.

According 陈占恒 introduced after the abolition of tariffs, should be canceled before export prices are decreased, and keep pace with domestic prices. After the implementation of the new resource tax, the domestic rare earth market, but the recent price decline, it is still rare excess capacity, due to lack of downstream demand. After the fight with the effective implementation of the illegal exploitation of and total control program, a large group of deepening integration, the rare earth companies destocking is complete, it is expected to stabilize rare earth prices rise.
