It is imperative to strengthen the order rectification of the rare earth industry

on January 4, the Ministry of industry and information technology and other 12 departments issued the notice on continuously strengthening the order rectification of the rare earth industry (hereinafter referred to as the notice), further standardizing the market order and improving the quality of industry development. The notice focuses on the key links of rare earth resource exploitation, total amount control plan, comprehensive utilization of resources, product circulation, etc., strengthens the supervision and investigation of key issues such as the recovery project of overlaid rare earth resources, the implementation of production plan, the use of raw materials in enterprises of comprehensive utilization of resources, and the impact of import and export management on samples, and establishes a normalized working mechanism

on October 30, 2018, the Ministry of industry and information technology, the national development and Reform Commission and other eight departments issued the "notice on organizing and carrying out special supervision on the rectification of the order of the rare earth industry", which carried out a one month special supervision on the implementation of the rectification work deployment, the implementation of rare earth enterprise policies, and the investigation and handling of reporting clues

the supervision was divided into eight supervision groups for one month. The scope of supervision mainly includes 8 provinces (regions) including Inner Mongolia, Jiangsu, Fujian, Jiangxi, Hunan, Guangdong, Guangxi and Sichuan. Focus on the implementation of the rectification work deployment of local governments, the implementation of rare earth enterprise policies, and the investigation and handling of reporting clues. Enterprises that have outstanding problems such as unplanned and unplanned production, undocumented exploration and mining, illegal rare earth products trading, environmental pollution, tax evasion and so on, as well as places where work is not implemented, supervision is not in place, and investigation and treatment are not timely, will be notified to the whole country, and relevant personnel will be investigated according to law

after two months, the Ministry of industry and information technology and other 12 departments issued the "notice" again, aiming to continue to strengthen the order rectification of the rare earth industry. At present, there are still many problems in the development of rare earth industry, such as illegal mining despite repeated prohibitions, rapid expansion of smelting and separation capacity, serious damage to the ecological environment and waste of resources, lagging research and development of high-end applications, and chaotic export order, which seriously affect the healthy development of the industry

rare earth is an important non renewable strategic resource, which is increasingly widely used in new energy, new materials, energy conservation and environmental protection, aerospace, electronic information and other fields. However, driven by interests, problems such as unauthorized mining and unplanned production occur from time to time, which seriously interfere with the market order and the normal production and operation of legitimate enterprises. The illegal production and operation of rare earth has become a major challenge for the development of the industry

12 the "notice" issued by the Department to strengthen the rectification of the order of the rare earth industry will definitely be conducive to the healthy development of the rare earth industry in the long run, and raw material manufacturers will pay more attention to environmental protection; The living space of illegal rare earth industry will be further reduced; Backward production capacity will be eliminated. It must be pointed out that we should grasp two aspects to rectify the order of the rare earth industry:

on the one hand, we should focus on cracking down on the illegal production and operation of rare earth in the name of comprehensive utilization of resources. The industry rectification and inspection team paid attention to the problem of export volume increase and price oversold of rare earth enterprises, especially some trading enterprises. The inspection team should supervise the existing problems to prevent illegal and stolen products from entering the circulation field, especially in the export link

on the other hand, it is necessary to establish a regional linkage mechanism for the rare earth industry to crack down on illegal production, so as to realize the timely communication of information, overall coordination and unified action of relevant departments. Enterprises that need continuous investment in enterprise scientific research and enterprises with reporting clues should be the focus of the supervision team to rectify the order of the rare earth industry. For serious cases, the inspection team can suggest that the government departments identify people, complete them within a limited time, and expose them in the media

we often say that development is the last word. If there is no development, there is no basic premise to solve other problems. Now it seems that the effective rectification of the rare earth industry is also a hard truth. We should maintain a high pressure on rare earth enterprises that violate laws and regulations, enhance the awareness of local governments and key enterprises to take the initiative and take responsibility, and actively grasp the actual results of the requirements of order rectification. Impact test; Collision experiment

at the same time, by exposing and notifying illegal enterprises, enterprises in the industry should be warned not to touch the red line of illegal behaviors, so as to create a standardized and orderly market order and a good business environment for legitimate enterprises, improve the development quality of the rare earth industry, and promote the coordinated development of upstream and downstream industries
