Since 2010 , Guangxi expensive ( Hong Kong ) Wu (state ) found a large portion of the highway along the rare earth mine in road construction , by consent of the Ministry of Land , Guangxi and then start the rescue of rare earth recycling . But reporter recently learned that since April this year , due to the recovery of rare earth ore project mired environmental problems , causing the work to a standstill . Some industry insiders worry that the highway construction continue to advance , thousands of tons of valuable rare earth resources may be permanently covered or being pressed and wasted potential illegal criminals .

Recycling project EIA troubled

For blamed environmental issues , recycling of rare earth rescue work has been authorized the Ministry of Land and regional government , the relevant department heads and even visited the construction site , but also admitted that so far the project has not been the EIA . GXNF rare company official said the rescue of rare earth recovery projects already played a report on the environmental protection department , but has not been approved .

Li Fu -screen view that the EIA rare earth mining project requirements are very strict , but the rare earth mine rescue and recovery projects in Guangxi rare earth mining in general is quite different : the former does not involve work to mine mining areas, but only the construction of the highway during the dug soil temporarily transferred to a nearby mine , heap leach through approach would displace one of the rare earths , and then go back and do slag fill embankment or do other processing , construction work will be over the end of the recovery .

"So rescue recovery is a short-term behavior , has its particularity. If you go through the normal procedures of the EIA procedure all run down and then start to do at least have 2012 , highway projects already completed, rare earth resources is likely to be constructed over the road permanently , or is an empty lawless illegal mining . " said Lee Fu screen .

Reporters learned that the rich rare earth resources in Guangxi and yet large-scale development and utilization , the current construction of key projects in roads, railways , various industrial parks and urban expansion area ( referred to as two- zone two-wire ) the amount of rare earth resources in the overlying pressure is considerable. According to the preliminary investigation of Guangxi Nonferrous Metals Group , the main park and highway Wuzhou Overlaid oxides of rare earth resources in total resources of about 7200 tons , the potential value of 1.296 billion yuan ( down by 18 yuan / ton ) ; southeastern Guangxi and two secondary road Overlaid level road reconstruction resources of rare earth oxides are expected more than 3,000 tons , the potential value of 540 million yuan ( down by 18 yuan / ton ) .

If no measures are taken in a timely manner of precious rare earth resources in the process of building these societies were stripped salvage recovery, once completed, will result in a permanent waste of precious resources. However, due to the country in terms of mineral resources, there is no special rescue recycling laws, regulations and operating standards , there is no practical experience to follow in trouble in terms of environmental approvals .

Mine because of environmental problems caused by agriculture contradictory

Reporters learned from the National Land Agency Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region , Guangxi in the heavy rare earth reserves second only to Jiangxi and Guangdong , but overall resources have not yet been fully exploited in the past over the construction of railways, highways , industrial parks found in the course of several rare earth mine, but have not been able to get timely recovery .

Since 2010 , the construction of the ( Hong Kong ) Wu (state ) highway Ping County , Teng County roads were found rich rare earth mineral resources. In June 2011 , agreed to by the Ministry of Land , Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region government explicitly , by the Guangxi Nonferrous Metals Group Rare Earth Development Co., peel your Wu highway construction out of rare earth recycling utilization.

In April this year , media reports Guangxi Nonferrous Metals Group Rare Earth Rare Earth Development Co., resulting in the County of Guangxi martial arts collection point in the town of environmental pollution, and lead to campus safety issues caused dissatisfaction of teachers and students and nearby villagers. Ping County will then shut down all rare earth recycling points and filled in more than 30 rare earth settling ponds within a week , dismantling production facilities in place to achieve restoration of the pool immersion harmless transfer processing .

In July this year , because of the rare earth recycling project in Guangxi Teng County environmental problems of mass incidents , new -town high Tamura hundreds of villagers into the development of Guangxi Nonferrous Metals Group Co., Ltd. Rare Earth Rare collection points at the local thwarted plant , resulting in a large number of claims to mine farmland and crops damaged. Qin East Guangxi Nonferrous Metals Group Co., Ltd. Teng County Branch of rare earth development general manager , although high Tamura project built plant , but did not begin rare earth recycling operations.

Reporters in the flat south, tengxian field interview that the two are ionic rare earth mine , the " heap leaching " process for recycling , in the implementation process is indeed a serious risk of water pollution and soil erosion . Ping Nan , Teng County environmental department heads both confirmed the rescue of rare earth recycling rare earth development project in Guangxi Nonferrous Metals Group Co., Ltd. in the implementation of these two places , although the land department has been authorized , but did not comment related to loop through the approval process .

Recommended the introduction of specialized management approach

According to statistics , as of the end of 2012 , Guangxi Nonferrous Metals Group Co., Ltd. of recycling rare earth development along the highway from your wu 496 tons of rare earth , rare earth recycling Cenxi granite mined 948 tons ; 2013 completed 515 tons from January to April , total recycling 1,959 tons , turned tax 7,000 million, promptly rescued important national strategic resource.

Respondents who said that to truly salvage recovery of rare earth good run , on the one hand wants the state as soon as possible relevant management measures to simplify procedures, especially the introduction of "special measures" to rescue recycling of rare earth resources and so on recycling project approval procedures and requirements for specialized and standardized management ; while local governments should improve the regulatory mechanism.

Li Fu screens suggested that such project approval and other formalities for approval by the relevant local departments at the Ministry of Land record ; environmental procedures by simplifying the general construction projects , rare earth recycling units required by the environmental protection department of environmental protection procedures do apply , the process of building good environment protection ; land clearance and forestry land and hope to give handled by temporary land after the end of the rare earth recycling, land were leveled , and then returned to the villagers ; safety supervision by the relevant formalities safety supervision departments to give guidance .

Autonomous National Land Agency deputy director Tian Feng Ming also said that in the proposed relevant state departments for rescue recovery work on everything rare , while also subject to change , "the approval is not re- regulation" of understanding , local governments must strengthen mechanisms to improve regulation. "For example , the establishment of a safety supervision, land, environmental protection , public letter to other departments of the joint working group to co-ordinate work on the recovery of management, from site selection to be responsible for the daily monitoring of the environmental protection department , and regularly publish data for community supervision. "He introduced CENXI rare earth recycling efforts led by the CENXI municipal and joint working group composed of multi-sectoral management, development and utilization of previously relatively orderly.

Rare skyrocketing prices experienced in 2011 after the start from the third quarter of 2011 fell into the channel , the continuation of the downward trend throughout the year 2012 , to May 2013 , was close to the price of rare earth price level in 2011 before skyrocketing rare earth prices .

We believe that the current price of rare earth in the bottom of the main reasons are :

From overseas rare earth enterprises operating costs , the current rare earth prices are close to the cost of overseas companies line .

Judging from the downstream demand , permanent corporate orders began to improve, the support is no longer declining demand . 2011 rare earth prices skyrocketing cause huge adverse impact on the downstream industry , rare earth prices have fallen to the current price , a number of downstream demand began to recover.

In the long run , in terms of application of rare earth new materials will continue to grow steadily stimulating demand for rare earths , rare earth prices are expected to appear stabilizes.

In the rare international market , the demand side seems more and more strong. China 's largest producer , is trying to boost the supply of rare earths by suppressing prices, but the Japanese magnet manufacturers and other demand-side predicts future price will fall , for the purchase indifferent. When in 2011 the rare earth prices skyrocketing , the demand side has been overwhelmed this purpose , but the current situation has changed.

"According to the current price , the manufacturer does not buy" , operating high-performance magnets for dysprosium Japanese trading company official said in unison . Chinese exports of rare earths prices rose about 1 percent since June of this year, once in late October rose to around $ 550 per kilogram. Although only hit of the summer of 2011 for about $ 3,700 per kilogram seventh , but it seems the demand side , the price is still too high .

In the main origin of Chinese rare earths , this summer the government to ban illegal mining on a large scale . Observing how the market believes that China started 10,000 tons of rare earth reserves . As well as market-related pointed out that the Chinese government is to boost the market and the tightening of the supply of rare earths .

In this regard , the Japanese manufacturer of magnets and magnet alloys after July reduced the purchasing transaction hardly the case is continuing to expand . China supplies due to inhibition caused price spikes have occurred in 2011 , when the demand side in a hurry to start purchasing, the results lead to a further rise , but this was very cool. In addition, as a neodymium magnet material also presents a similar situation . Currently the price of the day was about $ 100 per kilogram , compared with June rose by nearly 4 percent. But demand is not strong.

As optimistic about demand from the growth of hybrid vehicles and industrial machinery , willingness to increase business remains strong magnets . Each company has been in no hurry to purchase rare , because it considers the oversupply situation will continue in the future , the current rise is only temporary.

In addition, each magnet manufacturers such as Shin- Etsu Chemical Co. and TDK , etc. In 2011 the boom as an opportunity to reduce the amount of rare earths. Combined with price cuts in the spring , has increased imports at low prices . Inventory because they have the time , so do not rush to make purchases at high prices .

Including cerium , etc. , Japanese imports of rare earths in 2012 was 10,003 overall tons, compared to 2010 almost halved . The total exports to China in 2011 and 2012 was about 30,000 tons , only about 5 percent of the Chinese government to protect the resource and set export quotas . Japan's Showa Denko that " in 2013 ( exports ) are likely to remain lower than the export quotas ."

In addition , the demand side in no hurry to purchase another background is the World Trade Organization (WTO) ruling may limit exports of rare earths in China during violation of the agreement . This is a lawsuit brought by the United States and Europe , once the Chinese have been convicted of the WTO agreements , currently set at 2 percent or so is likely to cut export taxes , TDK think "This should help to promote a slow decline in raw material prices ."

Right now, the resource-based countries to control the market by restricting supply is increasingly strengthened, and rare earth demand side is positive initiatives to tide through flexible "difficult ."

Last week, the shock base metals , aluminum, tin, nickel fell by 0.4 %, 1.9 % and 0.8% , copper, lead, zinc rose 1.4 %, 0.7 %, 0.5 %. Given the weakness in emerging economies , increasing the risk of slowdown in the U.S. in the fourth quarter , fourth quarter industrial metals maintain low volatility judgment.

Last week, gold and silver fell by 2.9% , 2.1%, gold closed at $ 1,243.6 / oz. Minutes of the Fed's October meeting inconclusive again , " as the economic regulation QE", are no longer optimistic about the economic outlook , in fact, rejected in September some members of the " year may slow down QE" proposal. Previously week Yellen expressly At the hearing, the actual unemployment rate remains close to 10% improvement on the employment dissatisfied . We believe that the Fed will not cut before the end of QE, George and other hawkish members of speech or disturbance on the market .

Last week , titanium, manganese , cobalt, antimony fell , molybdenum was up . Recent steel, crude steel , pig iron , coke and other black chain production were decreased , manganese serious overcapacity is expected to price a further lows. According to Asian Metal Ltd. reported that by the end of October the State Reserve Bureau completed the 10,500 tons of antimony reserve, purchasing and storage news July already heard , antimony prices rose nearly 10% , and we expect the end of the purchasing and storage price will be high stage of antimony point .

Last week , lanthanum , cerium, neodymium and other rare earths fell slightly light , heavy rare earth closed flat , the overall situation was stopped rising . In order to more fully reflect short-term changes in the price of rare earth , we examine four major domestic rare earth site quotes found that each site were quoted last week appeared to stop the chain up or down slightly situation, we might guess the main purchasing and storage enterprises purchasing and storage weakened , vendors began to wait and see about , this is probably a precursor to the end of the purchasing and storage . Although unsure of the actual situation , but we keep the pre-view : First , this year's rare earth Shouchu impossible to reproduce the broad situation last year prices , price increases and persistence are poor ; second , hitting the tightening supply of rare earth , relative optimistic about the heavy rare earths .

Sponsored by the electronic exchange of rare earth products of rare earth products simulated trading contest ended, a total of 60 people enroll in the competition , the simulation game lasted eight days.

Reporters at the Ministry of rare earth products electronic exchange trading simulation game saw the scene , the game by the contestants on the computer simulated trading contest client interface to operate the system interface with the stock market simulation game analysis charts are broadly similar , the operator constantly simulation buy or sell process , the data interface to the right of the trend line and K generate a deal with the immediate change. According to the staff , the game simulated operation is one of the three existing trading patterns of rare earth products --- Current electronic exchange spot trading , which is currently the most widely used e-commerce platform as a large spot trading mode.

Simulated trading contest participants are optimistic about the development of the trading platform . Steel International Trade Company Li Wentao said he did not contact e-commerce transactions over the platform , but the game has been mastered by simulating a "buy made ​​, buy negotiable" and other elements , familiar with the transaction process . Electronic Exchange of rare earth products , according to consulting group leader introduced simulated trading contest participation is relatively high, the electronic exchange of rare earth products will provide unified guidance or training for customers in the contest focused on the problem of feedback to help customers familiar with the transaction and the transaction process model , to establish a correct concept of trading , risk control transaction .

A few weeks ago , praseodymium , neodymium oxide , praseodymium , neodymium metal prices had a sudden rise, praseodymium , neodymium metal will buy from 390,000 to 410,000 buy later , only a few days time , praseodymium , neodymium for the sudden rise in metal prices , industry sources have said very suddenly , saying " the price rise not fall through it , it will not rise too high estimate back ! " with rising rare earth prices , both manufacturers and traders began to sellers, there are trade Manufacturers sigh, " I can not buy prices , decline in value when not sell , play dead "

Then , have announced its listing price , the market played a guiding role , the atmosphere appeared reluctant to sell the market , rare earth prices continued to rise, but market sentiment deserted , which, insiders said that this large company to raise its offer collective way , had already appeared once in the last year , and put on the market does shock effect, but this is not known how much the market can continue up .

According to news shows : Rare earth prices fell, severity of rare earth oxide prices fell 2.06% and 1.53% respectively , mainly due to the permanent magnet related species , praseodymium , neodymium , dysprosium fell 2.90% , respectively , 2.56% impact of Ningbo NdFeB companies said . : NdFeB market is not good , praseodymium , neodymium price is difficult to rise, according to the site today to understand the message that the current price of praseodymium neodymium metal base at about 420,000 , is also an urgent need for a small amount of liquidity to 400,000 transactions

On the one hand prices of rare earth products , while ore prices firm this month, Ganzhou Rare Earth Industry Association released in November 2013 ionic rare earth ore price : rich in yttrium europium 21-22 Wan ton of ore , estimated ore prices firm, may the only consolation is the rare earth market downturn .
