中美俄稀土储量对比：俄1000万吨，美180万吨，中国是多少

Group 1 - The global competition for rare earth elements (REE) is intensifying, with significant reliance on these materials in technology products such as smartphones, electric vehicles, and wind turbines [1] - By 2025, the struggle for rare earth resources will continue, with the U.S. feeling urgent pressure, while China maintains a stronghold on the supply chain [1][13] Group 2 - China holds approximately 44 million tons of rare earth reserves, accounting for nearly half of the world's proven reserves, supported by the U.S. Geological Survey [3] - China's strength lies not only in its abundant resources but also in its complete rare earth industry chain, from mining to high-purity oxide refining and manufacturing of magnetic materials [3][9] Group 3 - The U.S. has about 1.8 million tons of rare earth reserves, primarily from the Mountain Pass mine, which is nearing depletion. The U.S. has outsourced processing to China due to high environmental costs and market challenges [5] - Despite significant investments to rebuild its rare earth industry, the U.S. will still rely on China for high-end processing by 2025 due to a lack of skilled labor and outdated equipment [5][11] Group 4 - Russia has 10 million tons of rare earth reserves, but economically viable resources are limited. The Tomtor mine, despite its large resource volume, faces significant extraction challenges due to its location in the Arctic [7] - Infrastructure development for rare earth extraction in Russia is lagging, with small-scale production not expected until after 2030 [7][11] Group 5 - China's early recognition of the importance of rare earths in the 1980s allowed it to build a robust industry, leading to a dominant position in global rare earth separation technology by the 1990s [9] - China's production capacity accounts for over 80% of global rare earth separation, enabling it to control supply and pricing effectively [9][13] Group 6 - The complete industry chain and technological barriers are crucial for success in the rare earth sector, with China's reserves and separation technology remaining unmatched in the short term [13][15] - The global landscape for rare earths is unlikely to change fundamentally by 2025 or even 2030, with the U.S. and Russia unable to significantly challenge China's dominance in the near future [15]
