From the "Jiangxi and Guangdong provinces jointly fight illegal mining joint" was informed, according to the "City of the South 5 provinces 15 regulatory region of rare earth development joint action plan" spirit, in order to further increase the Jiangxi, Guangdong and inter-provincial mineral resources protection and illegal mining crackdown provinces mineral resources together to build joint enforcement mechanism, "Jiangxi and Guangdong provinces on mineral resources together to build inter-provincial joint enforcement mechanism opinions" (hereinafter referred to as "views") introduced.

Provinces to establish a joint meeting system

According to reports, Jiangxi and Guangdong provinces border mostly high mountains, dense forests, rugged road, Guardian piece is difficult to take, inspections difficult to achieve, the information is difficult to spread, the border can not be completely in place of mineral law enforcement supervision, particularly in the flower area, some of the lawbreakers and law enforcement staff playing the "guerrilla warfare" and even nocturnal included for stealing, including a variety of rare earth minerals; coupled provinces are back to back check, often illegal mining village to the other administrative, once found, often failed to find illegal relative a man can not be timely investigation.

In this regard, the "opinions" to determine a joint meeting, the information exchange system, the establishment of joint law enforcement, research and exchange mechanisms. According to "opinions", the two sides established a joint meeting system. Joint meeting of members of the two provinces Enforcement and Supervision Bureau (Corps), related by City Council and the relevant county (city) Bureau in charge of leadership and law enforcement agencies who chaired a joint meeting alternately by the two provinces, provinces Law Enforcement and Supervision Bureau (Corps ) responsible for man's rotating presidency, meetings held once a year in principle, the relevant municipalities and districts Bureau contractor. In cases where special circumstances, significant problems or any member of the unit under the proposal, may at any time convene. Joint analysis of key provinces of the illegal exploitation of mineral resources at the junction of the situation, the exchange of law enforcement experience and develop key areas of joint law enforcement and joint enforcement programs and convergence of administrative law enforcement and judicial and other programs. Members of the unit are assigned a coordination ability, law enforcement and experienced staff as liaison, responsible for daily liaison work.

May establish inter-provincial enforcement team

Meanwhile, the provinces relevant city and county (city) between the information needed to establish a briefing system, strengthen communication and exchange of information on the situation, promptly inform each other of mineral resources within the jurisdiction of law enforcement to monitor developments.

More importantly, the two provinces relevant county (city) on the illegal exploitation of the border to take joint action, in the case of a consensus, the establishment of joint law enforcement teams across provincial borders; also agreed time turn-site inspections conducted border enforcement, clear interprovincial enforcement corner. In the process of inter-provincial cases, the implementation of "common border exploitation arrested, deal with problems and then separation" model, according to need, to the local land and resources (mine management) department requesting help coordinate the investigation of local authorities, local land and resources (ore tube) departments should actively provide assistance and coordinate relevant departments shall actively cooperate in combating mineral criminal acts.

According to investigators work needs to take immediate investigations, investigatory assistance, joint investigations, surveys commissioned to collaborate with other ways. Investigators found in the work of non-local jurisdiction object clues and relevant evidence, the letter will be unified transfer, involving important clues timely transfer. On the mutual transfer of cases of illegal, within a week after the case closed, inform each other in writing the results.

Japan Oil, Gas and Metals National Corporation (JOGMEC) has re-affirmed its commitment to transfer technology and know -how in order to leave a lasting legacy in Malawi as a nation.

"We are already on the ground in Malawi doing rare earth exploration in Mulanje, Thyolo, Lake Chirwa and Mangochi on Rare Earth which has key elements for manufacturing of batteries among other things," said Hideyuki Ueda, Executive Director of Metals Strategy and Exploration at JOGMEC after holding a bilateral meeting with President Joyce Banda in Yokohama -Japan on Friday.

Ueda stated that his meeting with President Dr. Joyce Banda was very significant as it dwells much on rare earth exploration in Malawi as mining was one of the government's priorities.

In his remarks, Minister of Industry and Trade Sosten Gwengwe explained that the mineral exploration being carried out in Mulanje, Mangochi and Thyolo on the Rare Earth Metal Project has reached an advanced stage and that many Malawians have already started benefitting through employment.

"Malawi's geologists are also actively involved in the project thereby enhancing their skills and knowledge, courtesy of the Japanese Oil, Gas and Metals National Corporation," said Gwengwe.

He said the key thing that came out of the meeting is the technology transfer that they are very much after in order to leave a lasting legacy which is the Japanese technological transfer and technical know- how.

Japan Oil, Gas and Metals National Corporation (JOGMEC) was established in 2004 as an incorporated administrative agency established by the Japanese Government to maintain a stable supply of natural resources and energy to Japan through exploration in Africa.

In July 2008, JOGMEC established a Remote Sensing Satellite Station in Botswana. The centre was established to transfer remote sensing technology to SADC countries in areas of mineral prospecting and exploration.

In July 2010, the Malawi Government signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with JOGMEC after which joint mineral explorations projects have been conducted and capacity building has also taken place which has seen technology transfer from JOGMEC to Malawi.

Tracking Rare Earth Metal Prices

Details: Category: Rare Earth News; Published on Thursday, 06 June 2013 09:19; Written by Yuri; Hits: 2223

Rare earth metal prices have been falling steadily for the last couple of years, in spite of China reducing export volumes. Usually a reduction of supply results in a rise in prices, but the falls are indicative of the size of the REE bubble that had formed around the turn of the decade.

Chuin-Weip noted in the WSJ last week that Chinese exports had plummeted 71% in 2012 from 2011; however, this year has seen a remarkable change – exports have been picking up, with April’s figure of 2,196 metric tons almost six times larger by tonnage from a year earlier and a 28% rise from March, according to China customs data quoted in the article.

China exported 6,112 tons of rare earth metals in the first four months of this year, as the authorities approved higher export quotas and demand from China’s principal REE export market picked up. The U.S., you may think? Nope – Japan.

The country’s industrial base has responded strongly to stimulus measures, including massive money printing and a substantial reduction in the value of the Japanese yen to post impressive economic growth in the first quarter.

Japan consumes some two-thirds of China’s RE exports and as GDP rose at an annualized rate of 3.5% in the first quarter compared with 1% in the previous six months, the industrial base has taken the opportunity of cheaper REE prices to re-stock.

Nevertheless, global rare earth prices remain weak.

The value of China’s rare earth exports for the first four months of this year came in 63% lower than a year earlier, at $136 million, according to customs figures quoted in the WSJ. But the pace of the price slump is slowing from the 70%-to-80% declines posted earlier in the year; although if they had continued at that rate, some REEs would have been given away.

Wyoming Releases New Study on Rare Earth Elements

Details: Category: Rare Earth News; Published on Thursday, 06 June 2013 09:02; Written by Yuri; Hits: 2089

Wyoming released Monday its new statewide survey of rare earth elements with promising results.

The Wyoming State Geological Survey completed an investigative report — including samples, maps, measured and recorded amounts — on the minerals to encourage further commercial exploration.

Through the scientific study, the WSGS has confirmed that rare earth elements occur across the state. For example, data indicates 20 sites produced samples with at least five times the average crustal abundance of rare earths — a positive measurement for deeper examination.

The report is available for download from the WSGS site.

Additionally, WSGS has established the Wyoming Database of Geology (Wyo-DOG) to assist in future geological studies. The database includes all elemental analyses along with brief write-ups and photographs of most samples and sites.

The Bear Lodge deposit, near the town of Sundance in northeastern Wyoming, is considered one of the largest potential sources of the minerals in North America.

Currently, Molycorp's Mountain Pass operation in California is the only active mine in the US.
