The WTO ruled against China in the rare earth case . United States and Japan on China's rare earth export restrictions to get WTO litigation support. WTO that China's restrictive policies with the organization 's free trade rules do not match. But a trade war did not end - China will appeal.

The history of the WTO , which is the first time in three big geopolitical players union sued and won the case of rare earth monopoly . China controls 95% of the rare earth market . Largest importer partners - the United States and Europe Day in court successfully proved that Chinese export restrictions purpose is to let the market shortage . And this will lead to higher prices. But Russia's Higher School of Economics, World Economy Department Director Leonid Grigoryev that temporarily in the lawsuit are not yet a winner.

He said: "The lawsuit will be crushed . China is likely to appeal. Will undoubtedly appeal to protract the case , it will be a very long process. Very difficult to resolve conflicts in the WTO . May also be lost. Even if China lost again , there will be a large number of barbed wire to prevent it from going to implement decisions . Most do not understand : what will come to the conclusion , because China is a national economy. If for some reason it decided not to produce anything, restrictions , then do not quite understand how to force China to produce it due to some reason do not want to produce. "

At the same time , the pressure on Beijing is indeed great, but obviously a force. China rare earth exports are strong political and economic leverage . Competitors attempt to deprive it of this leverage. Meanwhile American independent experts acknowledge that if the United States is a rare earth metal market monopoly , would certainly like the Chinese do .

Russian Academy of Sciences Institute of World Economy and International Relations expert Alexander Sally Nowitzki insisted that the rare earth market has become a brutal geopolitical battleground .

He said: "This is too hard for the performance , too successful containment of China conscious . China into the global trading nation in the forefront , and it is relatively considerable financial situation so that the West is extremely fear. Competitors confessed : We totally do not need your success , you want to play a major role , we are very unhappy. "

The problem here is not the WTO , nor is it rare , but China on the same day the United States and Europe is extremely complicated relationship. Far East Institute, Russian Academy of Sciences expert Yakov Do Er Geer believes that in essence are many chess board at the same time take the multi-step move.

He said: " In order to force China to compromise on the earth , it shall issue other economic or political gain some bonus . For example, China is now in the South China Sea and East China Sea territorial disputes encountered very complex . For example, China is extremely important that their main geopolitical rival the U.S. and Japan do not involve themselves in disputes with its neighbors . And for these countries is very important to be able to play in the WTO to force China to expand rare earth export quotas ace . "

Last year, China has carried out a compromise , the rare earth export quota has doubled . China has also set up rare earth metals exchange , which is also on the West and Japan urged China not to press countries export prices according to the market price of rare earth metals to make a positive response . Temporarily WTO arbitration court ignored these arguments against China . But this does not mean that Beijing will withdraw their arguments . Chinese people are very likely to appeal.

According to reports, South Korea in Beijing, citing an " informed source " exclusive broke the news that North Korea for 200,000 tons of fertilizer and 500,000 tons of corn, 20 million tons of the country Musan area "rare earth big mine" development rights transferred to China . Reported that , according to the agreement reached by the two countries , China is responsible for the development of rare earth mine musan construction costs , and support for mining equipment needed , and the DPRK will be half of Musan free supply of rare earth resources in China , and the remaining half by Chinese in accordance with international prices to the DPRK to buy. A trade with the DPRK Musan who have frequently told reporters on the 16th , Musan indeed rare , but hard to believe that reserves would be so huge . The annual world consumption of rare earth now only 70,000 tons , production capacity of 12 million tons. In addition , rare earth resource exploration , extraction, separation is a long and complex process , there are too many variables.

According to South Korean reports, this year in May , China to North Korea provided 200,000 tons of fertilizer aid . As per ton of fertilizer can yield 3 tons of food , so the Chinese move is equivalent to support North Korea 600,000 tons of food . Reported that Chinese food deficit , taking into account the actual situation of North Korea decided to half the standard international prices towards the sale of 500,000 tons of corn for the batch of corn "might" have been shipped to Korea from northeastern China . Reported then that in order to repay China , Kim decided to further open China resources. The "sources " said, " I heard that " North Korea and China will jointly develop Ham North Road Musan buried reached an agreement on a large number of rare earth resources . Reported that the Chinese for the scarcity of resources is a sizable income.

Musan, North Korea has Asia's largest open-pit iron , but its rare earth resources are not known to outsiders . Yonhap reported that on July 30 , the day the Korean Central Television broadcast the program, the Korean National Academy of Sciences Institute of Geology Dr. Pan Xianyu said that North Korea is not only rich in rare earth resources buried , and its mineral quality is also high . July 23 , headquartered in Japan, the official newspaper of the General Association of Korean " Korean Daily News" also refers to the Korean National Resources Development Kim as saying that North Korea 's rare earth mineral resources are now about 2,000 tons, accounting for the total world's known reserves of rare earth 13% , and may find more deposits. The report also said that multi-national companies have shown willing to participate in the development of rare earth mineral interest DPRK , the DPRK will seek export refined rare earths.

A rare earth industry source told reporters , rare earth reserves the exact exploration requires high technology, according to the type of rare earth , but also to identify mining technology , refining and separation mode , this is a long process. Recently, countries are scrambling to declare " find rare giant mine ." South Korean media in June declared that the country found buried in the scale of 23 million tons of rare earth veins , the Japanese scientists have discovered a giant submarine in the Pacific Ocean known as rare earth mine , after mining value or prove little or exploitation is very difficult.

In recent years , China's rare earth industry management regulation has intensified, received remarkable results. Recently, reporters learned , however , rare earth "black industry chain ," the problems are long-standing rule is not absolute , and often in the special regulation, after the end of combat operations , illegal mining and production, processing , sales and export of rare earth products phenomena become active again even very rampant.

Bayan Obo in Inner Mongolia Baotou polymetallic Ore mining area of 48 square kilometers , is the world's most resource-rich light rare earth region. The mine area is also dotted with a number of neighboring mines , some rare earth mine grade is very high. Lured by profits , criminals eyeing here , some to the point of potential illegal small-scale mining of ore , and some even inside the mine ore theft . In order to prevent criminals in recent years, Baotou Steel Group has taken various measures , but even so , this year, there are still stealing mine incidents.

Dispersion of rare earth resources in Jiangxi and other southern provinces , private dug rare earth mine and processing and sales of illegal mining of rare earth products is the phenomenon despite repeated prohibitions . China Rare Earth Industry Association Marong Zhang said that last year the South ionic rare earth ore mining production was 13,400 tons mandatory plan , but industry associations statistical analysis of the data show that last year the South at least mine produced 37,000 tons , nearly 70 percent of unknown origin .

Some industry insiders pointed out that the recent adoption of the " movement" lack of sustained effectiveness of remedial measures recommended in the future to carry out special operations to combat the same time, as soon as possible to solve imperfect laws and regulations , law enforcement and other issues the main unknown , explore the establishment of combating illegal production and sales of long-term mechanism of rare earth behavior in order to achieve tackling the problem.
