Sichuan rare earth industry set off a new round of consolidation . Recently Grinm and Sichuan Sheng and resources listed companies have announced that the company and a subsidiary of a subsidiary of China Aluminum Corporation of China central enterprises rare Rare Ltd. ( hereinafter referred to as Chinese rare and rare earth ) , Sichuan Han Xin Mining Development Company Limited ( hereinafter referred to as the Han Xin Mining ) signed a " letter of intent " , to be jointly set up a joint venture company , integrating mining and smelting of rare earth Sichuan separate companies.

Aluminum Corporation of China Sichuan delegation led

Grinm said , holding subsidiaries Grirem February 28 and China rare earth, rare earth Leshan Sheng Co., Ltd. ( hereinafter referred to as Sheng and rare earths ) and Han Xin signed on rare earth mining industry consolidation , development and other aspects of rare earth mine Letter of Intent . Parties to jointly set up a joint venture company , integrating mining and smelting of rare earth separation Sichuan enterprises, China is relatively rare and rare earth holding, Sheng and rare is the second largest shareholder.

As a leading enterprise in Sichuan RE , Sheng and resources yesterday also announced that a subsidiary of the Chinese sheng and rare earth rare earth, Grirem and Han Xin Mining signed a letter of intent.

Statistics show that China is the rare and rare earth aluminum subsidiary central level, is the development of rare earth industry consolidation aluminum platform , designated as the Ministry of National Rare Earth one of the main formation of large enterprise groups , led by the integration of the relevant provinces including Sichuan , including separation of rare earth mining and smelting enterprises .

Sheng Sheng and resources and rare compared subsidiaries. Before the co- Sheng and rare announcement intended to 237 million yuan in Hong Kong and has acquired a 40% equity interest in faith , and faith is the main business of rare metals and rare earth production . Meanwhile, there is also hosting a rare Sheng Han Xin held DeChangXian polymetallic ore mining and some experimental mining rare earth ore processing plant mainland slot . Sichuan Sheng and rare earth resources as a leading enterprise in the hands of the many "good " brand , but also for its position to get two shareholders to increase the stakes .

Ministry of Industry and support the formation of a large group of rare earth

Integration of rare earth resources in the country in recent years has become a trend.

In early January , the Ministry held a rare formation of large enterprise groups thematic sessions. At present, China has basically formed a rare Baotou Steel Group , China Minmetals , Chinalco , Guangdong earth, Ganzhou Rare Earth and Xiamen Tungsten six companies led industry development pattern. Next , focus on supporting these six companies were led to further promote mergers and acquisitions , formation of large rare earth enterprise groups. Promote industrial restructuring as one of " the Big Six " of China Aluminum Industry, by introducing Grinm , Sheng and resources , the curtain opened Sichuan RE integration.

As a rare province of Sichuan have MIANNING , Xichang extends to nearly 300 kilometers with Johnson and other places of rare earth resources , with coarse mineral particles , single component , less impurities , easy smelting , etc., rare quality ranks first in the country. Sichuan Maoerniu two main ore of rare earth ore reserves of rare earth ore Johnson mainland slot home the top three domestic reserves were 200 million tons and 700,000 tons . Currently, Sheng and rare earths is hosted belonged to Han Xin Mining rare earth ore Johnson mainland slot No. 1 mine.

It is worth noting that the development had been a number of listed companies in Tibet and Sichuan rare earth mine came " scandal" , but in the end only made ​​legitimate Jiangxi Copper mining rights within the range of 2.94 square kilometers MIANNING Maoniuping rare earth resources . Analysts pointed out that in recent years, the local government is trying to set up a provincial initiative to seek the rare earth group , but eventually led to overcapacity in the domestic rare earth intensifying , while the Ministry of aluminum to obtain support for the rare earth industry to promote regional integration, integration of difficulty significantly reduced.

Rare performance by seeking to integrate counter-attack

While last year's third quarter, the southern parts of rare earth to carry out remediation activities , coupled with the expected impact of the national reserve , some rare earth products prices rebounded significantly , but the second half of the rare earth prices fall back into the doldrums. Listed companies from various rare earth industry in 2013 "report card ", it has not yet seen the rare earth industry is currently out of the " winter" , in which colored Rising net loss of 72 million -8000 million. So why this time the companies reached the rare earth industry?

A brokerage analysts said , in the country to create a large group of rare-earth backdrop restrictions from the local government will be less and less , rare earth resources will be further concentrated , which is conducive to enhance the voice of each company . Once the rare earth industry inflection point, then the time and resources to select Sheng teamed with China 's Chalco , Grinm will also receive substantial returns.

Shaw ultra-wide permit Hang consulting analyst noted Grirem as the earliest engaged in rare earth research, the strongest R & D units , 60% of rare earth production in China using Grirem development process . The companies involved in the integration of rare earth resources in Sichuan Province , reflecting the state of the industry transformation and upgrading of attention, but also reflects the company's rare earth industry chain advantages and value , the company expects will leverage its R & D strength , keeping the rare high-end products in the advantages, continue to benefit from the integration of the country 's rare earth resources .

Experienced a general decline in business performance , the 2014 permanent magnet materials causing the industry concern again. Reporters from 2014 Ningbo International Conference on NdFeB learned , due to strong demand for wind power , new energy vehicles and other emerging industries , rare earth permanent magnet materials will be a strong impetus to the development , the fastest growing application of rare earth permanent magnet materials will be . Insiders said that with the large national group formed to accelerate the pace of rare earth and rare earth Shouchu expected , rare earth prices are expected to stabilize.

NdFeB usher in new opportunities

Application of rare earth permanent magnet is large strategic emerging industries , the relevant product performance, efficiency obviously important material , its application scope and application amount to some extent reflects the level of high-tech development of a country .

"Recently NdFeB rare earth industry to become the most talked about materials, mainly due to the state of the environment, the growing importance of energy-saving , and high-performance rare earth permanent magnet materials in the wider field of new energy , development potential. " A distinguished guests said .

Zhang Anwen , deputy secretary general of China Society of Rare Earths , told reporters that the future application of rare earth three fastest growing areas were magnets, catalytic cracking of petroleum , automobile exhaust , is expected to 2018 CAGR of 10.1 %, 8 % and 6% , rare earth elements involved are lanthanum, cerium , praseodymium, neodymium and dysprosium .

One participant entrepreneurs believe that strong demand for wind power , new energy vehicles as the representative of emerging industries, will push forward the research, production and sale of rare earth permanent magnet materials . In wind energy , for example, said Zhang Anwen , compared with conventional gearbox , permanent magnet direct drive unit annual cost is slightly higher , but the power output can be increased by 3-5 % , low voltage ride through capability, and network easier. Permanent magnet direct drive unit failure and less maintenance costs than conventional gearbox reduced by 20 %.

Morgan Stanley expects future permanent magnet direct drive offshore wind power installed capacity will account for 70% ; 2015 global permanent magnet direct drive wind turbines will account for 15-20 % of the entire group .

According to the forecast the Global Wind Energy Council, during 2013-2017 , the cumulative installed capacity of wind power will be doubled by 2017 to reach 536GW; annual capacity additions from 2013 40GW, 2017 increased to 61GW. Asia will continue to be the world's biggest market within five years about installed 112GW, to the end of 2017 with a total capacity of more than 200GW.

2014 wind power demand of 4074 tons NdFeB , year on year growth of 28%. "In addition, lifting machinery , mining pump motor , magnetic separator, electric tools, rail transportation, especially for industrial use various types of rare earth permanent magnet motors , micro motors on the number of rare earth permanent magnet materials demand will also have steady growth. After five years China is expected to demand will reach 150,000 tons of rare earth permanent magnets . " Zhang Anwen told reporters .

Industry consolidation is expected to speed

The past two years , after a series of mergers and acquisitions of rare earth industry , has been basically formed six companies dominated industry development pattern. The deployment of the Ministry of rare earth industry mergers and acquisitions to further strengthen in January this year, the rectification work had made ​​it clear that the future will focus on supporting these six companies were led to further promote mergers and acquisitions , formation of large rare earth enterprise groups.

" Rare Large Group was established in the fight against the illegal smuggling of rare earth , rare earth prices have an important role in the stability of the permanent magnet business is good. Since the permanent magnet pricing depends on high-end products in Japan , high raw material costs become a permanent magnet is an important factor in the level of prices . If the Chinese illegal exploitation of rare earth phenomenon can be suppressed , stable rare earth prices , will be able to further enhance the competitiveness of domestic enterprises in the permanent magnet . " The analyst further said .

Analysts said the industry generally recognized fluctuation range neodymium praseodymium oxide between 250 000 -40 yuan / ton, in the past two years, also in this range , less than 250,000 yuan will hit the bottom line of the State of rare earth pricing , thereby triggering policies to protect , more than 40 million yuan, the downstream demand will shrink. Currently the price of the most sensitive areas of demand for wind power and energy-saving appliances .

In recent years, driven by interests, the United States , Canada, Australia and other countries to develop rare earth set off a craze . Japanese enterprises by accelerating the diversification and the promotion of alternative sourcing channels , to avoid the risk of price fluctuations of rare earth to ensure supply. By 2014, the global " de- China" could further accelerate the process of rare earths .

Some elements of the shortage of Japanese diversified blocked

September 2010 , before the waters of the Diaoyu Islands collision , nearly 90 percent of Japan's reliance on Chinese demand for rare earths supply . Subsequently, the Chinese played diplomatic card , cut off exports to Japan of rare earth, rare in Japan for promoting diversification opportunities. 2012 , Japanese dependence on China for rare earths fell to 56%.

The fall of 2013 , the Japanese trading company Sojitz company began importing rare earths from Australia , Toyota Tsusho also planned from 2014 onwards the production of rare earth in India. However, current data analysis showed that the quality of these rare earth sources significantly lower than China .

Japan's diversification strategy and the rare earth elements can not meet the shortfall . After the collision , Japan, China, from all over the world to find alternative sourcing channels mainly for the light rare earths, and heavy rare earths is still dependent on China . Which , as a heavy rare earth behalf of " Di " , are usually equipped with high-performance magnets in hybrid and electric vehicles. Although it is possible through technological innovation , reduce the amount of vehicle , the inevitable trend of the development of new energy vehicles will be difficult to reduce the amount of use of the element.

Honourable mention rare bipartisan US joint motion
2014
In early February , U.S. Senator Roy Blunt ( Mo. ) and Joe Manchin ( West Virginia ) jointly proposed a " National Rare Cooperation Act of 2014 " in order to reduce the United States on China 's rare earth mine dependence , encourage private sector employment and innovation to maintain U.S. military technological superiority.

The reason this legislation is to contribute to the senators that China 's virtual monopoly on the global rare earths market , which will economic environment and national security adversely affected. Due to the rare earth are widely used for military and high-tech electronic products, legislation will be used to encourage domestic production of rare earth products in these two areas . To ensure stable economic development to promote employment while protecting national security.

It is understood that the two parties will promote the national law of rare earth production and sales joint cooperation rare earth industry . Rare private suppliers and end-users will be expected to establish a rare earth smelting joint cooperatives in the United States .

Although rare in the United States and Japan has not shaken the strategic position of China in the world 's rare earth , rare earth industry are weak in recent years indicates that some changes. July 2012 , Baotou rare earth carbonate price 68,000 yuan / ton, down to 27,000 yuan / ton in July 2013 ; November 2013 neodymium oxide prices fell by nearly 25 % over two years , to 32 yuan / ton.

Undoubtedly, China Rare Earth are simultaneously affected by both domestic and foreign . Outside, contradictory demands and capacity exacerbated the weak market , technological advances reduced consumption intensity rare earth ; including black earth industry chain shocks continue , beyond the plan , unplanned rare earth production accounted for 50 % of the total . By 2014, China will face more severe rare challenge .
