Over the past sold "cabbage price" of the earth, seems to have achieved a "Return Value": customs data show that the first quarter of this year, China's actual export of rare earth minerals and metals increased by 27% year on year to 12,941 tons, the export value has increased over the same period nearly 7 times.

    Rare is the 17 referred to special metal elements, rare earth elements are widely used in electronics, petrochemical, metallurgy, machinery, energy, light industry, environmental protection, agriculture and other fields. Meanwhile, the rare earth is also a strategic resource. In recent years, state departments of rare earth industry to strengthen the strict "control", including the rare earth resources, tax, environmental protection, production planning, export quotas, export tariffs, resource integration and other aspects.

    China Nonferrous Engineering and Research Institute, former vice president of rare earth industry experts TESTING told the Post reporter, in the last century 90's, rare earth companies do not have the environmental costs included in the price of rare earth was traced to sell "cabbage price", "Pig the price of meat. " However, since July 2010, China's rare earth prices began to rise significantly this year, up more than 200% since the beginning of some species or more than 6 times the price.

    But the industry said the skyrocketing price of rare earth behind the separation of the upstream smelting plant "store goods reluctant sellers" and "for sale", is a social hot money "speculation turns", is desperate criminals stealing illegal mining is RE enterprises in the "green stick" under the "bad money drives out good money" is the rare earth industry downstream applications (such as motors, permanent magnet materials, ceramics, energy-saving lamps, etc.) business complaints.

    Rare-earth price inflation is not a real "value return"? At a "high" price of rare earth could extend gains? Who is the current round of increases in prices of rare earth "winner"? Whether the Government will be chaos in the rare earth industry policy intervention? Forum Post a bull market period, the Post reporter invited China Nonferrous Engineering and Research Institute, former vice president of TESTING, China Rare Earth Industry Association head Wang Caifeng Preparatory Group, China Building Sanitary Ceramics Association glaze raw materials branch secretary cum Long, vice chairman Liu Ailin and Ganzhou a well-known separation of rare earth smelting enterprises Moran, chairman of weeks (a pseudonym) and other domestic rare earth industry, government, experts, business people on these issues.

    Experience to keep stocks speculation:

    RE market, "one day a price"

    Guest view: Rare Earth manufacturers because of rising costs and to raise its offer, as well as some of the social hot money, like fried gold, silver, like hoarding up the earth, causing confusion in the market of rare earth, one day a price.

    Oriental Morning Post: The data indicate that the current price of 179,000 cerium oxide -18 yuan / ton, cerium lanthanum carbonate -7.32 to 73,000 yuan / ton, while the cerium oxide is only the beginning of -3.4 33500 yuan / ton, lanthanum carbonate Only 12 800 -1.30 Ce yuan / ton. Some varieties of rare earth in three or four months the price rose nearly 4 times more, why?

    Wang Caifeng: In recent years, the government strengthened the management and control of rare earth, rare earth companies also mandatory under the Government plans to reduce production output. Mandatory plans this year to enterprises producing more and more the feeling of tightening, some companies began reluctant sellers. There are also some social idle capital has come to speculation, because the fewer things on the market, the price rise is in the affirmative.

    Weeks of silence: the price rose so fast because China accounts for 97% of the world's rare earth market, market share position in absolute control of the entire country both the Government and civil society are that (after) the price is too low, but the earth and is a strategic resource, either from the rare earth mining, export quotas are controlled, the price is very easy to go up.

    On the other hand, the original corporate environmental costs are not counted in the (price) which, now part of the government in environmental protection efforts on enterprises have increased, while the government had control of mining, Baotou (RE) companies have incorporated it into (rare earth resources) to leave one. Carried from the source of supply constraints, but is itself accounted for such a large share of the global market, the market demand is very large, the price will go up of course.
