稀土板块再推荐逻辑梳理 20240514 摘要 • 稀土出口管制取消预期增强,但官方文件主要针对军民两用物项,未明确 禁止对美出口。出口审批流程预计 45 个工作日内完成,其他小金属进出 口数据表明,短期下降后通常会恢复,目前稀土出口许可有放开趋势。 • 稀土价格目前处于历史低位,如氧化镨钕约 44 万元/吨,氧化镝约 160 万 元/吨,氧化铽约 700 万元/吨。中美关税和谈后,下游磁材企业出口恢复, 海外企业为保障库存安全增加采购,下游需求边际上呈现积极恢复趋势。 • 国内稀土指标增长预期不高,进口矿纳入指标管控,需关注民营企业退出 风险。缅甸矿进口量前期偏低,近期资源税谈妥后供应有所恢复,但雨季 来临限制增量。美国 MP 公司分离厂产能利用率逐步提升,莱纳斯扩产进 度较慢。 • 美国 MP 公司分离厂镨钕产量逐步提升,一季度年化产量约 2000 吨,年 底产能利用率有望达 80%。莱纳斯季度产量维持在 15,000 吨左右,年中 计划扩产至 1 万吨以上,海外企业扩产影响全球稀土供应格局。 • 海外市场中重稀土价格较国内存在显著溢价,部分产品价格高出国内两到 三倍,海外供应链明显短缺。国内氧化镝社会库 ...
How this coal company could help break U.S. dependence on China for rare earths
CNBC· 2025-05-13 15:06
Company Overview - Ramaco Resources, a small coal miner based in Kentucky, has discovered a significant deposit of rare earth elements at its Brook Mine in Wyoming, which it purchased for $2 million [2][3] - The company has a market capitalization of $571 million and primarily mines coal for steel production in West Virginia and Virginia [3] Discovery and Potential Impact - The Brook Mine is estimated to contain up to 1.7 million tons of rare earth oxides, which could significantly alter the company's fortunes [2] - This discovery aligns with U.S. efforts to reduce dependence on China for rare earth elements, which are critical for national defense [3][4] National Security and Supply Chain - The U.S. relied on foreign countries for approximately 10,000 metric tons of rare earths in 2023, with China accounting for 70% of imports [4] - Ramaco's Brook Mine could help alleviate a national strategic supply shortfall of rare earths and critical minerals, allowing the U.S. to process its ores domestically [5] Production Capacity - The Brook Mine is projected to produce an estimated 1,400 metric tons of rare earth elements annually, marking the first new rare earth facility in the U.S. in over 70 years [5]
海外稀土价格持续大涨,国内稀土价格会跟进吗?
经济观察报· 2025-05-12 12:56
据生意社价格监测,2025年第18周(5月5日至5月9日),其收录的8种稀土商品价格无一下跌,周均涨幅为1.69%;其中,涨幅前三的品种分别为氧化 镝(3.42%)、镨钕合金(2.91%)、镝铁合金(2.24%),而在此前三周,这8种稀土商品均价接连出现下跌情形。 对此,广发证券金属及金属新材料分析师黄士菡在接受经济观察报记者采访时表示,一方面是稀土供给在收紧,另一方面是电动汽车、节能空调等领域 对稀土永磁的需求拉动仍将持续,在行业供需紧平衡、偏短缺的情况下,未来国内稀土价格中枢有望上移。 参考此前已经进行出口管制的小金属(如锗、锑、铋等),基 本上均出现过在出口管制实施初期出口量大幅下降、经过一个 季度后出口情况开始有所恢复的情形,且由于内外价差扩大, 在外盘带动下国内价格同样上行。 作者: 邹永勤 封图:图虫创意 在海外稀土价格持续大涨之后,国内稀土价格亦开始出现上升苗头。 海外稀土价格大涨 5月9日,稀土板块的明星股盛和资源(600392.SH)在其公告中透露,以镝、铽为代表的稀土金属产品近期在海外市场出现了价格大幅上涨的情形,但 国内稀土价格走势目前还未受到海外市场的显著影响。 比如,根据国际能源及大 ...
