January 23, the Ministry of Mineral Resources held the third round of planning work video conference, for a new round of re-mobilization planning work to deploy.

According to the China Land and Resources News reported January 26, the third round of the preparation of mineral resources planning will focus on four aspects.

One is to improve the development and utilization of the total regulatory mechanism, according to the national industrial policy, different circumstances, the classification regulation, the reasonable control of the total amount of resource extraction, mining economy to maintain a stable and healthy operation. For coal overcapacity class resources, strict checks; for rare earths, tungsten and other traditional and emerging strategic mineral mining, the implementation of total production control; for oil, iron, copper, aluminum and other domestic shortage of minerals, to encourage the implementation of prospecting and mining and other policy measures.

The second is to optimize the layout of the development and utilization of mineral resources, good strategy guide layout, proposed a number of mineral resources exploration and development base, an important strategic core area of the protection of national security resources to form in space. Good management functional area, delineated a number of national planning mine, mine, and key mining areas of great value to the national economy, restrictions and prohibitions and restrictions on prospecting and mining area, delineated blocks prospecting and mining planning.

The third is to develop differentiated minerals policy and regional policy differentiation. Provinces (cities, districts) must be practical, clear the area of mineral resources management policy guidance and access conditions. 'Fourth, resources and support efforts to build a platform to prospecting breakthrough strategic action-oriented line with the theme of green mining ecological civilization construction platform for research with a combination of geology and mineral technology innovation platform, seven planning and implementation platform.

It is understood that, in accordance with the unified arrangements of the Ministry, in July this year to complete the preparation of the provincial planning framework, the completion of the national plan for approval to publish and provincial planning department review report before June next year, before the end of next year to fully complete the work at all levels of planning approval . Planning for unfinished areas, will not be accepted conduct interviews or prospecting and mining rights application.

A manufacturer of advanced surface coatings, will invest $7.25 million to establish its first Virginia operation in Henry County.

The company will create 29 new jobs with an average salary of $50,000, which is well-above the average prevailing wage in the region, Gov. Terry McAuliffe said.

Virginia successfully competed against Oklahoma and Texas for the project.

It is a provider of advanced tungsten carbide-based coatings that significantly increase the life of critical metal parts operating in abrasive, erosive, corrosive and chemically aggressive environments. The company was formed in 2000 by a team of U.K.-led venture capitalists to develop and commercialize a process that was invented by scientists at Moscow State University.

McAuliffe approved a $150,000 grant from the Governor’s Opportunity Fund to assist the county with the project. The Virginia Tobacco Indemnification and Community Revitalization Commission approved $170,000 in Tobacco Region Opportunity Funds.

A provider of surface coating technology (Hardide Coating) has today announced investment in a new Virginia manufacturing plant worth £4.5 million.

The investment will see Hardide Coatings expand the availability of its nanostructured coatings throughout North America.

The 26,000 ft2 facility in Martinsville, Virginia, will house new and bespoke chemical vapour deposition (CVD) coating reactors as well as the latest pre-treatment, inspection, quality assurance and finishing equipment. It will service existing and new customers in the oil and gas, aerospace, flow control and advanced engineering markets.

Boosting business

The facility is expected to be operational in the fourth quarter of 2015 and to create up to 29 jobs in the first three years. The investment follows Hardide’s recent increase in capacity at its UK facility in Bicester.

“Demand from customers in North America is developing well and a local production facility will significantly boost the business available to us,” said Philip Kirkham, CEO of Hardide plc. “It will provide a strong platform for developing further business as well as the diversification of our customer base.”

Tungsten market: With the Chinese traditional Spring Festival approaching, tungsten businesses generally considered after the tungsten market continues to rally, or Spring Festival, the downstream end of the alloy manufacturers stocking increase, coupled with the procurement of raw materials tungsten concentrate more difficult, and therefore some other tungsten APT goods shipped home smelter reduced enthusiasm. Tungsten steel scrap cargo operators, mostly in the hands of the high inventory, large traders to sell at a loss now wishes low price, wait until after the Spring Festival after the tungsten market, is expected to offer post-tungsten goods, or have a slight increase.

Molybdenum market: Chinese New Year approaching, steel demand quiet, although procurement frequency stability, but the number does not increase, the same light, chemical products, processing enterprises delayed stocking, generally lower prices, raw material of molybdenum concentrate prices Forced Yindie. Expected next week, the market is still difficult to climb.

With the traditional Chinese Spring Festival approaching, the downstream end of the alloy manufacturers increased stocking, tungsten steel scrap market inquiries increased; however, scrap tungsten steel cargo operators, mostly in the hands of the high inventory, large traders to sell at a loss now wishes lower prices, and more wait wait for the market after the Spring Festival tungsten, tungsten steel scrap spot market purchases more difficult.

Increased by the Inquiry and cargo operators reluctant to sell both to support the recent high tungsten steel scrap increased offer, offer up high last week 1-2 yuan / kg. It is understood that the import of scrap tungsten blade has appeared 161 yuan / kg higher offer, the market price of the mainstream focus on the 155-161 yuan / kg.
