"We are here to work with you on the same front, hoping to stabilize the prices of raw materials, sustainable and healthy development makes the downstream." Fifth Baotou Rare Earth Industry Forum for the Q & A session, there is the case of rare earth enterprises respond Chengdu Galaxy Magnets Joint Stock Company (hereinafter referred to as "Chengdu Galaxy Magnets") General Manager Wu Zhijian statement.

As the larger bonded NdFeB production enterprises, "Our company has worked with other companies to cooperate, with bonded NdFeB magnets made of brushless DC motor instead of the original AC motor, more than 78% performance increase, However, in 2011 to prepare a large number of promotional efforts, but suffered rare earth prices skyrocketing. "Wu Zhijian to the" First Financial Daily "said.

Statistics show that NdFeB sintered NdFeB and bonded NdFeB is divided into two kinds. Wherein the sintered NdFeB permanent magnet materials are widely used in electronics, electrical machinery, medical equipment, toys, packaging, hardware, machinery, aerospace aviation and other fields; bonded NdFeB magnets NdFeB alloy powder is put with ring epoxy resin, plastic, and other additives such as adhesion mixed, and using a molding method such as compression molding, injection molding, molding and calendering, prepared from a composite permanent magnet.

2011, rare earth prices have doubled soaring, partly phased bonded NdFeB enterprises, unable to digest the price skyrocketing cost pressures, re-find prices cheaper alternatives.

Wu Zhijian, at present, the user uses ferrite bonded NdFeB magnets alternative, although not as good as bonded NdFeB magnet motor efficiency motors do, but the cost is greatly reduced. "Only a handful have special requirements for electrical efficiency of products, will use our company's bonded NdFeB magnets, but the demand has been very little."

If you continue to use bonded NdFeB magnets, each motor costs to increase from 30 to 40 yuan, the user and the market simply unacceptable, so the whole project stalled. "If this project in the country to promote the smooth, praseodymium neodymium alloy available annually about 1,200 tons, saving electricity would be a considerable number, so unfortunately died." Wu Zhijian said.

Chengdu Galaxy Magnets encounter is not the case. 2011 rare earth prices skyrocketing, the pair bonded NdFeB a significant impact on the industry. That time, the downstream application markets serious recession, a lot of bonded NdFeB materials production enterprises were forced to cut, cut, a serious shortage of capacity utilization.

Since the reorganization of the Framework Agreement signed by the end of 2012, with 12 of Inner Mongolia Baotou Steel Rare-earth Enterprises upstream integration have not yet seen substantial progress, is still in a kind of "delegated management" of the state.

Reporters learned that led to this situation, the Ministry of Industry issued a rare earth smelting and separation products mandatory plan targets "adequate", there are generous investment enterprise integrating scientific research, I hope in the downstream portion of polishing powder material applied technological breakthrough, which profitable.

Currently still in the early stages

May 4, 2011, Inner Mongolia introduced the "rare earth upstream enterprise integration phase work program", the local 35 companies will be mergers and acquisitions, compensation off, out of shutting down. By the end of 2012, Baotou Steel Rare Earth with one of the 12 companies signed a framework agreement on restructuring, Baotou Steel Rare Earth, general manager Zhang told the "Daily Economic News" reporter, said the Baotou Rare Earth integration has not yet completed "first step", he used "stage Completions "to describe the progress of integration.

August 8, Zhang said in an interview with reporters, 12 "incorporated" into the Group's business has not been substantive consolidation, is still in the early stages of integration, because "Assessing do account" and so on.

Zhang told reporters that currently doing preliminary work including the assessment of the time required by the agreement on the principle. Pursuant to the Framework Agreement, the reorganization of the 12 companies and their shareholders must agree to the Baotou Rare Earth free transfer 51% stake in enterprises, consistent with the Baotou Rare Earth Development Plan and to achieve compliance with national environmental standards. Baotou Steel Rare Earth in talent, technology, capital, rare earth resources, mandatory production plan targets and export quotas to give 12 corporate support.

Been integrated enterprise restructuring plan

Multibyte insiders told reporters that the Baotou Rare Earth integration 12 companies real difficulty lies in the smelting and separation indicator is not enough.

One yuan close to being integrated enterprise, told reporters that, by integration, the 12 enterprises obtained only from the Baotou Rare Earth mandatory targets. Baotou Steel Rare Earth under which there are two separate companies, had only two indicators of enterprises now pay would give 12 companies, is a typical enough to go around.

Be integrated with a home business, for example, concentrates before 1000 tons monthly subsistence, and now can only get five million tons Baotou Rare Earth Concentrate targets. Above estimates, 14 separate business capacity equivalent to a minimum of approximately 80,000 tons oxide calculation, but only 35,000 tons Baotou Steel Rare Earth Separation smelting targets.

Currently 12 companies are not included in the staffing and financial Baotou Steel Rare Earth unified management, namely in the "food" in the case financing. "Only smelting separation part, this is more of a delegated administration." The person said.

Zhang claimed, "We will guide these companies, relative to the number of downstream industrial transfer, or in the centralized control of the upstream efficiency based."

One yuan of anonymity, informed sources told reporters that "centralized control to improve efficiency," then, is integrated part of the enterprise smelting and separation capacity is likely to be shut down, because according to the agreement, environmentally unqualified enterprises will not get mandatory targets, that can not get raw materials, and environmental standards are more stringent.

"Now there is no through environmentally friendly, want to come is not easy, it must comply with the Baotou Rare Earth planning." Zhang said.

Not long ago, Baotou Steel Rare Earth to convene a meeting of its 12 companies, said on December 31 this year, 12 companies can no longer tailings drainage. One yuan is integrated company official told reporters that last year did not profitable enterprise, mainly invested heavily in research and environmental protection, including research and development investments accounted for more than 30% of sales revenue is to be able to apply in the downstream polishing powder materials some technological breakthrough.

The official said, because the input is too large, the next two years is estimated will still not profitable. He will also make a separate link smelting enterprises because of "concentration of production" and was prepared to shut down, now this part of the business has been compressed to a proportion of the total business of 20%.

Ministry Secretary Chen Yanhai the 8th of raw materials at the Fifth Baotou Rare Earth Industry Forum, said the illegal mining of rare earth production is still relatively rampant, seriously affecting the entire development of rare earth industry in the first half of rare earth industry realized profits of only 2 billion yuan .

China Rare Earth Association Secretary-General Ma Rongzhang recommendations Rare black chain set up to combat long-term mechanism, the establishment of rare earth on the downstream corporate strategic cooperative partnership. He said the association will be completed before the end of the rare earth industry development plan for the medium and long term.

This year the situation is not optimistic about the industry

Marong Zhang told the China Securities Journal reporter, in 2012 the South Total rare earth minerals mandatory plan was 13,400 tons; According to association statistics, Southern rare earth mine in 2012 to produce at least 3.7 million tons. Which can be introduced, the South separated ion ore smelting enterprises to obtain more than 70% of unknown origin. He said that the rare earth black chain rampant, that illegal enterprises that difficult, difficult to combat illegal mining, profit-driven and serious local protectionism.

This year the situation is not optimistic. The first half of smelting and separation of rare earth minerals and product yield, respectively 41,000 tons and 35,000 tons, plans to complete in the first half for 87% and 78%, to achieve industry profit of about 20 million. Chen Yanhai said that although the first half of the demand has been warmer, but considering the first half of the indicators have been completed more than half of the earth, the overall industry performance is expected this year will be a sharp decline.

"At present, most enterprises are facing losses, some companies are partially stopped, the industry generally reflect a lack of confidence. Several elements price increases can not make up the market's overall decline, the market is the purchasing power of the status quo is not busy, the transaction is insufficient." Ma Rongzhang also holds same view.

Overcapacity is the main reason for the poor performance of the rare earth industry. China Rare Earth Association, Gan Yong said that at present, China's rare earth permanent magnet materials production capacity of 300,000 tons, annual output of 80,000 tons, less than 30% capacity utilization.

"At present, apart from rare earth catalytic material is not excessive, the others are surplus." Zhang Zhong, general manager Baotou Steel Rare Earth more direct road.

Rare park development disorder causes excess production capacity further. Marong Zhang told the China Securities Journal reporter, since 2010, many areas of rare earth park planning and construction, the country has about 18 rare earth industrial park. The park planning similar, and many more resources as the core, to the midstream and downstream industry chain extension.

Should regulate rare earth production and management

Ma Rongzhang revealed that the association will on China's rare earth resources, production, marketing, policy, environmental, and other aspects of the application on the basis of full investigation, resource-based enterprises as the core, market-oriented, China's rare earth industry put forward long-term development plan, promote the sustained and healthy development of China's rare earth industry. The plan is expected to be completed by the end of the year prepared.

Marong Zhang said that to coordinate supply and demand, promote consumption, should be established on the downstream corporate strategic cooperative partnership. Association will strengthen cooperation with relevant industry associations, has been established with hydrogen, light function, polishing, catalyst club and soon to be established and rare earth permanent magnet alloy club to promote RE in the automotive, wind power, white goods applications in the field, to create Rare application platform. Guide enterprises to increase R & D, design and manufacturing capabilities, and promote the development of rare earth materials and applications.

The current situation for the industry, Ma Rongzhang suggestions: Rare regulations as soon as possible, a clear main responsibility to establish long-term mechanism to regulate rare earth production and business activities; soon comprehensive recycling programs for rare earth waste to be sorted out, combining guidance, regional planning, establishment of regional recycling center, waste disposal companies standardize rare earth production and business activities, incorporating industry regulatory aspects; strongly promote balanced use of rare earths, particularly lanthanum, cerium and other elements of an annual surplus surplus 3-5 tons, should be encouraged to lanthanum, cerium in the field of environmental protection, structural materials application; take the severity of other ways, focusing on heavy rare earth export controls, light rare earth production gradually liberalized mandatory plan and supporting the introduction of appropriate management measures; phasing lanthanum, cerium export quotas, to encourage a large number of export lanthanum, cerium and other surplus elements, the international market; adjust the resource tax, in order to strengthen the international position of China's rare earth industry; formulate relevant legal system reserves of rare earth, rare earth reserves established classification management system.

August 9 Some industry insiders here at the fifth "China Baotou Rare Earth Industry Forum", said that in recent years, the development of rare earth resources abroad accelerated global diversified supply of rare earth pattern is taking shape, but the future of China in the international rare earth market dominance is difficult to shake.

Rare earth prices in the international market prices, tight supply and other factors, in recent years, the United States, Australia, Russia, India, Brazil, Thailand and other countries have moved to restore or start development of rare earth resources.

Baotou Steel Rare Earth (Group) Hi-Tech Co., general manager Zhang said that at present, the production of foreign rare earth mine in Mountain Pass mine are the United States, Australia Weld mine, Russia's Kola Peninsula mining, etc. These thousands of tons of ore with an annual output to 25,000 tons from ranging, but there did not achieve full capacity. In addition, Vietnam, India, Australia, Canada, Kazakhstan, South Africa and other countries are also building a number of rare earth resources development projects, these projects into production, of production still time.

China Rare Earth Association Deputy Secretary-General Zhang Anwen said, according to incomplete statistics, the foreign enterprises built, under construction production capacity of close to 70,000 tons of rare earth, rare earth supply internationally diversified pattern is taking shape.

Zhang Anwen, who believe that the past 20 years, the global supply of rare earth heavily dependent on China, leading to excessive consumption of rare earth resources in China, illegal exploitation, destruction of the ecological environment issues outstanding. Supply pattern change, on the one hand will help China rare earth mine life extension, is conducive to the sustainable use of rare earth resources in China. On the other hand, China rare earth enterprises are facing competitive pressure will also increase.

Zhang and other enterprises responsible person said that the current rare earth development projects abroad, mainly the production of light rare earth products, so in the future light rare earth products will become increasingly fierce market competition, but China will remain in the production and supply of heavy rare earth products dominate.

In addition, foreign development of rare earth smelting separation project put into operation, will depress world market prices of light rare earth products. Taking into account foreign light rare earth products and Chinese products compared to the lack of light rare earth cost advantage, some foreign rare earth development, smelting separation project will face operating pressure, and even into a loss situation, Chinese products in the market is still very obvious advantages.
