Comprehensive upgrade of rare earth smuggling

August 7, the Ministry of Public Security, the Department of Homeland eight departments jointly issued a document, the decision from 2013 August 15 to November 15 in the fight against rare earth mining, production, circulation of illegal special action. According to program implementation: the special action will be divided into self-examination (August 15 to September 30), joint investigation (September 30 to October 25), the rectification (October 25 to November 15), three stages; by focusing on combating illegal rare earth mining, production, circulation and removal of waste products of rare earth recovery and utilization of corporate governance and other means to earth "chain of black interests" and were "a number of opinions" requirements, check the levels of government to implement RE management responsibilities, perform mandatory production plan, mining quota of total control, environmental verification, production safety, VAT invoices and other rules and regulations implemented. We believe that this special action is pre-Ganyue joint action against smuggling of rare earth comprehensive upgrade.

Policy Ruqierzhi

Although this action against smuggling of rare earth comprehensive upgrade fully line with our expectation, but we still believe that the special action file highlights: the first sentence of the text, "In order to implement the spirit of the recent instructions of the State Council leaders" to indicate that the new government attaches great importance to the leadership still the healthy development of rare earth industry, so although the action file on a "letter" on behalf of "text" in the form of externally imposed, but the local government still has sufficient binding; same time, "letter" in line with the current government in the form of pragmatic governing style. In addition, the Ministry is the special action of the major executive departments, and the current Minister Guo Shengkun for many years engaged in non-ferrous industry experience, we believe that this special enforcement actions and effects are worth the wait.

August 12, Ganzhou in Jiangxi Ganzhou Rare Earth Group convened the Seventh International Symposium on Rare Earth Development and Application of the second session of China Rare Earth Summit revealed that the company will focus on the development of rare earth permanent magnets and motors, rare earth luminescent materials, rare earth reserves hydrogen materials, rare earth polishing materials, and ceramic and catalytic recycling of rare earth resources, and strive to 2015 formed the main income of over one hundred billion yuan of the South large rare earth enterprise groups.

It is understood, Ganzhou Ganzhou Rare Earth Group is currently the only rare earth mining rights who has initially built up a set of rare earth mining, processing, trade, research and development applied to one of the industry chain, to become the country's rare earth industry leading enterprises, the South's largest rare earth resource platform .

Ganzhou is the South ionic rare earth discovery, it is also the South ionic rare earth mining technology was invented. As early as the end of 2010, Ganzhou Rare Earth Industry embarking vigorously carry out remediation integration, and promote the effective protection of rare earth resources and the rational development and utilization. May 2011, the city's rare earth mine halted rectification, for the formation of Ganzhou Rare Earth Group to prepare. This year in March, Ganzhou Ganzhou Rare Earth Group officially inaugurated, marking Ganzhou Rare Earth Industry to intensive exploitation key step. Currently, Ganzhou Rare Earth resource integration completed, smelting and separation industry concentration further improved, national R & D platform was primarily rare earth, rare earth Technology Park project is planning the construction of rare earth trading platform has also been set up to run.

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 the first half of the 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; comprehensive recycling waste as soon as possible on the rare earth project 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.

Many Chinese and foreign experts in the world of heavy rare earth rare earth ions birthplace Jiangxi Ganzhou participate in the "Seventh International Symposium on Rare Earth Development and Application of the second session of China Rare Earth Summit" called on countries in the world should be a reasonable development of rare earth, rare earth global shared Supply of responsibility, contributed to a stable supply of rare earth situation diversified formation, which benefit the global rare earth industry to develop healthily.

European Rare Earth Industry Association, Ban hereby established, said: "Many countries have rare earth, rare earth to be used in the local production of rare earths is reasonable, a local resource should not always be 'trek' everywhere transported."

Many experts said that the rare earth supply diversification pattern is formed, which is rare earth industry consensus. "By contrast, they found that in 2013 the global market for rare earths supply shortages may occur, however, after 2014 will have to reverse this situation. Consumer providers can supply pipeline from the diversification seek some comfort, the proportion of rare earth production being Western increase. "British Metal Business Network CEO Nigel Fontana said.

Nigel Tana said the increase in production comes mainly from the western United States the company's Mountain Pass project molybdenum complex production and Australia's Lynas Wilder Hill project expansion. These supplies should increase in the coming years to provide a relatively stable consumption of rare earth supply, especially in the light rare earth aspect.

Chinese Society of Rare Earths, said the Secretary-General Lin Dong Lu, China accounted for 90% of global rare earths market share of supply above. This increases the consumption of rare earth resources in China has also increased pressure on resources to environmental management, and because long-term low prices, the economic losses are self-evident. "More than 30 countries around the world have rare earth resources, but the long-term by a State to supply the global market, which gave China too much pressure, so the supply of rare earths into the ranks of countries that can slow down China's supply pressure."

"Supply pressure relief, the Chinese are more energy to environmental management and remediation illegal exploitation problem." Lin Dong Lu said, diversified supply of rare earth market formed a relatively fair, when there is a wide range of stable supply pipeline , rare earth prices will be able to return and become more reasonable, and will not go up and down hurt the industry's healthy development.

2011 rare earth industry in a non-normal period of extreme swelling, abnormal rare earth prices skyrocketing, the global rare earth industry, causing injury. Currently, more than a year as a whole experienced a decline, rare earth prices back up.

"However, the rise in the price of several elements, can not make up the shrinking market, the market is not busy purchasing power, lack of trading volume, which should lead to a global industry-wide concern." China Rare Earth Industry Association Secretary-General Ma Rongzhang said.

"Restore market confidence will take several years." Nigel Tana said that now the governments of all countries have realized that in many high-tech fields, including military, to a large extent be dependent on the supply of rare earths. Therefore, many countries are increasing rare earth supply efforts.

Experts, according to the U.S. companies to track TMR research outside China, in recent years, the United States, Canada, Australia, India and other 37 countries, 261 companies from Shi 429 rare earth projects, namely the exploration, Organising, evaluation for smelting ore testing, construction, or the resumption of production at different stages of the process.

However, the fact is not optimistic. Ban hereby Li said that at present the new rare earth mining project is mainly light rare earth, the most critical heavy rare earth rare.

China Tianyuan analysis of rare earth experts have found that in the recent 3-5 years on the world market for rare earths have important implications for rare earth project is not much, but it can also to some extent, the global supply of rare earth diversified.

After a few years, China's rare earth production and export volume from the current share of global proportion of more than 90% to 70% or even 50%. Rare and foreign experts believe that this world is a good pattern for China.

Tianyuan has said that China is the world's supply of rare earth market, excessive, excessive consumption and waste of resources. China wants the world to have a sustained and healthy development of the rare earth market, countries should strengthen international cooperation.

Nigel Tana said rare earth prices stabilized at a reasonable level to the global rare earth industry all business interests, hope that after the next few years the world's resources in the country's efforts to diversify supply situation in the formation of rare earth with price stability can also be the implementation.

Reporters learned at the forum last year, China has a mandatory plan companies in the production of rare earth ore, smelting separation products 76,000 tons, 82,000 tons. In contrast, when the amount of the country's illegal rare earth minerals have more than 40,000 tons of illegal smelting separation of more than 50,000 tons of rare earth products.

Industry sources say that due to illegal rare earth products flooding the domestic and international markets, has seriously affected the prices of rare earth products, interferes with the industrial order, causing many legitimate rare earth production companies into a loss situation.

After the Spring Festival this year, Jiangxi, Guangdong crackdown began smuggling. Compared to past economic penalties, the most criminal level. Meanwhile, from late June, the main producing areas Ganzhou Rare Earth began to crack down the illegal exploitation of rare earth. It is said that to combat the illegal exploitation of rare earth in the country away.

In the August 8 opening of the rare earth forum, the State Ministry of Industry Secretary Chen Yanhai raw material sources, the forum was held the day before, the Ministry announced that the Ministry of Public Security and other eight ministries in the second half will be carried out jointly by the National Rare rectification work. Special action on August 15 to November 15 in full swing, will be focused on investigating illegal poaching, exploration and exploitation of undocumented illegal, strictly investigated the presence of rare earth mine production cross-border mining, mining super indicators act against illegal mining (recycling) mine, mineral products and illegal income shall be confiscated and will be punished.

Led by the Ministry of the rare-earth rectify marks from Ganzhou Rare Earth Industry norms extended to the whole country. Participating entrepreneurs believe that the move will help the healthy development of rare earth industry, positive leading enterprises.

"Rare park development disorder causes excess production capacity further." Rare Association Secretary-General Ma Rongzhang in an interview with reporters said. He said that since 2010, many areas of rare earth park planning and construction. The existing national park about 18 rare earth industry, similar to the planning of these parks, and many more resources at the core extends to midstream and downstream industry chain, involving separation of rare earth smelting, magnets, light function, hydrogen storage, polishing powder, rare earth catalysts and other major new materials, which will lead to the construction of the park of rare earth production capacity further overcapacity.

Rare industrial parks everywhere is the only rare earth industry overcapacity, a microcosm. In recent years, the rare earth industry capacity sprawl to the already fragile chain facing a new crisis.

From the authorities was informed that this year, rare earth Association conducted specialized research. Rare earth recycling business, for example, the survey showed that there were rare comprehensive waste recycling enterprises 55, of which 39 in Jiangxi, Jiangsu, 4, 3, Hunan, Inner Mongolia, Shanxi, the two, Henan, Shandong, Guangdong, Zhejiang, Yunnan each one. Since 2011, the approval of the corporate assault around 90%, waste treatment capacity of 190,600 tons. Among them, the waste treatment capacity of 142,000 tons NdFeB, waste fluorescent powder processing capacity 23,100 tons, waste polishing powder processing capacity 21,500 tons, 04,000 tons of rare earth waste treatment capacity. At present, annual production of 80,000 tons NdFeB about 30% of total waste by only 24,000 tons; fluorescent powder production 05,000 tons, waste by 30 percent counted as 01,500 tons; polishing powder production 15,000 tons, It can be seen, rare earth recycling enterprise production capacity has far exceeded demand.

"At present, China's rare earth industry showed overcapacity is becoming increasingly prominent, companies large losses, operating rate of less than 30%, especially in the illegal enterprise under the impact of the whole industry competition is fierce." One Baotou rare earth enterprises responsible person "Economic Information Daily "correspondent said. These people admitted that China's rare earth companies a total of about more than 120 rare earth oxide production capacity equivalent to up to 32 million tons, in addition to foreign enterprises device production, market supply far exceeds about 12 million tons per year of total world demand, capacity a significant increase in domestic demand coupled with rampant illegal enterprises weakened, multiple factors have contributed to the domestic rare earth product prices fall, production and operation of the deteriorating situation.

It is worth noting, by the rare-earth prices and strict control policies to stimulate domestic and foreign resources, but also to accelerate the exploitation of rare earth rare earth facing severe domestic competition. Zhang, chairman of Baotou Steel Rare Earth, including a number who have expressed worries about rare earths, when the domestic rare earth prices will be a great impact on overcapacity problem will worsen. According to statistics, at present there are nearly 40 foreign countries, more than 200 companies planning more than 500 rare earth projects, including the United States, Australia, Brazil, Canada, Kyrgyzstan and other 15 countries, more than 40 rare earth project is progressing rapidly . U.S. molybdenum company's current production capacity has reached 5000 to 6000 tons, by the end of 2013 will reach 400 million tons production capacity; Australia Yalainasi factory in Malaysia last year, has successfully produced the first batch of rare earth products, its annual production capacity will reach a few years 22,000 tons, to meet about one-third of global demand. After 2015, only the United States and Australia that the two companies to meet global market demand outside China.

In this regard, Ma Rongzhang that, first we must resolutely combat black chain, as soon as possible metals regulations, a clear main responsibility to establish long-term mechanism to regulate rare earth production and management behavior. Secondly, as soon as possible on the rare earth waste recycling project for comprehensive rectification, combining guidance, regional planning, the establishment of regional recycling center, regulate rare earth waste production and business activities, incorporating industry regulatory category. In addition, you should strongly promote the use of rare earth balance. Especially lanthanum, cerium and other elements of an annual surplus surplus 30,000 to 50,000 tons, should be encouraged to lanthanum, cerium in the field of environmental protection, structural materials in applications such as water purification, denitration catalyst, UV protective glass, rare cast iron, steel, rare earth , rare earth magnesium, rare earth copper, rare earth and aluminum.

Today, the overall market remained stable rare earth, praseodymium neodymium, dysprosium, europium and gadolinium terbium class suppliers offer strong, neodymium, praseodymium, dysprosium, gadolinium offer generally higher than last week's high.

According Baotou manufacturers said that the current praseodymium neodymium with ticket prices 45-46 yuan / ton, with no fare at 390,000 yuan / ton. According to the Shanghai region to the supplier of praseodymium neodymium metal is now more difficult to find low-cost sourcing, supplier base will not be accepted with a vote 43,44 yuan / ton shipments.

Dysprosium type of market, today Ganzhou suppliers reflect dysprosium market with ticket prices overall have improved, the current mainstream price 220-230 yuan / ton, some businesses offer higher dysprosium iron with votes 230-240 yuan / ton , the market situation has not significantly active procurement inquiries.

Dysprosium minor fluctuations in the market price of a slight, with a vote before the 3.05 million yuan / ton ship supplier of the 295-300 yuan / ton or so can be shipped, the market needs less. Currently some industry suppliers that the advance does not give a clear offer, on the market to maintain the sidelines. As the raw material market and recent price changes quickly post may still rise, some manufacturers of magnetic suspension quote or frequent adjustments offer only demand procurement of raw materials.

Erbium oxide recent trend of market prices stable, the current mainstream market with a ticket price of 340,000 yuan / ton, the downstream application companies on the market keep watching and demand procurement. Gadolinium oxide market prices continue to rise, the current supplier Baotou gadolinium oxide with a ticket offer 200,000 yuan / ton, gadolinium iron with fares in the 215,000 yuan / ton. Europium oxide market, according to suppliers with the Jiangsu region is understood that the stock has been clearing europium oxide, that latter trend is more difficult to judge.

Magnetic scrap market today, recycling prices were flat yesterday, some recyclers better reflect the recent market transactions. Traders also said that the industry is now mostly bullish downstream retail investors wait and see.

Crackdown by Ganzhou Rare Earth private mining boost rare earth market rebounded sharply, praseodymium neodymium and other varieties of terbium dysprosium prices rose significantly. Among them, neodymium oxide, praseodymium prices since mid-June, the lowest 255,000 yuan / ton rebounded sharply to the current 335,000 yuan / ton, or about 31%; dysprosium prices since mid-June, the lowest 1,255,000 yuan / ton rebounded sharply to current 2,275,000 yuan / ton, or about 81%.

We believe that the recent dysprosium, represented by the heavy rare earth neodymium praseodymium rebound more than two main reasons: First, Ganzhou region is the world's main producers of heavy rare earth reserves and production accounts for more than 70% global share, compared to the terms of praseodymium neodymium , Ganzhou ore more private crackdown triggered heavy rare earth supply tightening expected; Second, the heavy rare earth greater early decline, making a stronger rebound kinetic energy, since the beginning of 2012 has been a drop of about 80%, praseodymium neodymium decrease of approximately 47% over the same period .

Ganzhou Rare Earth private mining operations crackdown is perhaps the only country of rare earth remediation work beginning with bedding, rare earth smuggling operations is expected to be extended to the whole country. It is understood that the Ministry intends to joint environmental department, customs, Ministry of Land Resources, Ministry of Commerce and other ministries to conduct nationwide Rare remediation work, the current regulation scheme has entered the stage countersigned by the various ministries.

First, according to the discussion of the program, the Ministry will hand inventory of illegal mining and smelting, and to increase the punishment; hand will be the banner of "deep processing" banner in the separation of rare earth mining and smelting enterprises in the new round of illegal verification , once discovered immediately shut down. Secondly, rare earth and rare earth mining special stamps will be combined with the mandatory plan, this threshold would not be illegal rare earth "bleaching."

In addition, the Ministry is preparing to promote the application of rare earth downstream market policy, "the overall development of rare earth resources and the application of strategic planning," plan is expected to release during the year, the industry is expected to improve the living environment.

As rare private Ore no environmental protection, taxation and other costs, ultra-low-cost sales have a tremendous impact on the market. In recent years, Chinese rare earth mining total control indicators are 93,800 tons; According to industry experts expect the private domestic rare earth minerals annually more than 100,000 tons of rare earth on behalf of private mining even more than the formal channels of supply controlling the total rare earth mining . On the other hand, the current global annual consumption of about 100,000 tons of rare earth, rare earth mining private cause a serious imbalance between supply and demand has become rare earth prices rebounded to suppress an important reason.

We believe that with the expansion of rare earth smuggling operations to the nation and the deepening of the private mining rare earths is expected to be effectively suppressed, the relationship between supply and demand is expected to be real improvements, downstream manufacturers and traders expected the middle of continued improvement is expected, and thus is expected to bring rare earth prices continue to rise.

Ministry of Industry and Information Technology at the Fifth raw Secretary Chen Yanhai Baotou Rare Earth Industry Forum on the media, "said the first half of this year, smelting and separation of rare earth minerals and products production was 41,000 tons and 35,000 tons, plans to complete the first half of 87% and 78%, to achieve industry profit of about 2 billion yuan. "" Although the first half of the demand to pick up, but considering the first half of the earth target to complete more than half expected this year, the overall industry performance will be a sharp contraction. "Chen Yanhai also expressed concerns .

In the long run, Chen Yanhai worries will be eased. Because, from 15 August to 15 November, the Ministry of Public Security, Ministry of Land Resources, Ministry of Environmental Protection, Customs and other eight departments will join forces in the fight against rare earth mining, production, circulation of illegal special action, which may make the rare earth industry concentration further enhanced, but also make rare earth prices rebound.

Illegal production of 40,000 tons last year,

All along, the smuggling of rare earth industry in China are "pain." In June last year the State Information Office published "China's rare earth Conditions and Policies" white paper mentioned, from 2006 to 2008, foreign customs statistics, imports from China Rare Earth, more than Chinese customs statistics exports were 35% higher, 59% and 36%, in 2011 it is 1.2 times higher. "This is not only statistical difference is due to indiscriminate digging of China Rare Earth private mining and smuggling abroad caused." Industry analysts had told "Finance News" reporter.

But in 2012, the rare earth industry lawlessness still not disappeared. "Currently, illegal, illegal mining production more serious." Chen Yanhai yesterday in Baotou, said, "2012 National Illicit production of more than 40,000 tons, illegal smelting products more than 50,000 tons of rare earth export smuggling and other phenomena in some places more prominent."

Chen Yanhai said rare earth industry management there are many deep-seated problems remain unresolved, "China's rare earth production to perform mandatory plan targets, but because of the mandatory planning and production of mineral mandatory plans do not match, leaving a separation plant needs space, but also led to indiscriminate digging of private sales of rare earth minerals have whereabouts. "

China Value Index chief researcher Cui Xinsheng, "International Finance," told reporters that this is a rare strategic resources, the state of the strategic management of resources, it should be joint action, we can not expect a single government departments and local governments to manage heavy treatment.

Eight ministries and joint action

In this regard, the government has launched action - the Ministry of Industry on August 7 at the official website, will join the Ministry of Environmental Protection, the National Tax Administration, Customs Administration and other seven departments, from 2013 August 15 to November 15 in the fight against rare earth mining, production, circulation of illegal special action.

"Focused on investigating illegal poaching, exploration and exploitation of undocumented illegal, strictly investigated the presence of rare earth mine production cross-border mining, mining super indicators act against illegal mining (recycling) mines, minerals and confiscate the illegal income, and be punishment. "MIIT said," At the same time, clean up construction projects in violation of rare earth resources recycling behavior, did not seek to recover rare earth resources, behavior, and immediately ordered to stop production rectification. "

MIIT also introduced, will focus on the verification of corporate mineral smelting separation source implementation of mandatory planning and related policy situation, confiscate the illegal exploitation of its acquisition and can not explain the source of rare earth minerals and illegal income, and focus on examination of the purchase and sale of rare earth trade enterprises minerals, for sale and can not explain the source of the illegal exploitation of rare earth minerals, confiscated, and be punished.

Although very hard, but it appears in the industry, this is not new. "The State Council on the promotion of sustained and healthy development of rare earth industry, a number of opinions" (hereinafter referred to as "the" opinions "") in 2011 proposed the "fight against illegal exploitation and super-control targets mining, illegal production and ultra-planned production, illegal exports and smuggling of rare earth ", the Ministry's latest move described as" opinions "of the latest refinement initiatives. "It depends on implementation of the results." Wikipedia information analyst Du Shuai soldiers, "International Finance," told reporters that "the most critical, not only the file, do not do it."
