Hi Gareth,

Thanks for the quick reply!
Is it convenient to provide the 2009 & 2010 export quotat announcement link at MOFCOM’s web. The announcements in their website are not
so organized… I really to dig out where that gap is.
Appreciated!

@Vic: not sure where the issue lies… my numbers were drawn from the Chinese language side of the Chinese Ministry of Commerce’s Web site…

Hi Gareth,

Thanks to provide a lot of consolidated information abt REE.
One of my co-workers in China said he got the below numbers from CHINA’s Ministry of Commerce.
2008 : 34156t
2009 : 31310t
2010 : 24280t
2011 : 30184t

The 2009~2010 numbers are very different from the numbers of your update. I also cross checked Hitachi Metals (Neomax) numbers and they are very close to yours. Could you help to clarify where is the possible gap? Thanks!!

Hello Gareth,

Sorry for coming late into the discussion. Your last post is interesting Gareth. This looks to be a proof of the enforcement of new technical and environmental regulations by the Chinese Government …

@Recover: the H1 2011 quota allocations included 62 t allocated to Pingyuan Sanxie Rare Earth Smelting Company, but it was initially provisional,only available once its infrastructure improvements were inspected and approved by a local regulatory agency in March 2011.

I thought the 1st semester quota was 14,446, not 14,508. Several sources suggest the total yearly quota is 30,184 not 30,246. Can you please explain?

I also attend that rare earth conference ., be reminded when china say yes does not mean yes . 5 percent increase in quotas can not satisfy the growing demand of global market , especially in new emerging markets such like power , hybrid car .
We believe it will be mainly depend on global market demand .

The key decision is by Chinese government .

Company like baotou steel high tech is state owned company their performance is not by their performance in the company and market but determined by government decision .
