证券研究报告·行业动态 稀土政策加码强化战略定位， 人形机器人未来空间广袤 核心观点 稀土：日前稀土总量调控管理办法加码，拟将稀土开采及分离企 业限于"国家推动组建的大型稀土企业集团" 及所属企业，并 拟将进口矿也纳入总量调控范围，民营冶炼分离企业将逐步退 出，分离产能下降超三分之一，实际分离产量或下降约四分之一。 2024 年我国稀土开采指标 27 万吨，两大稀土集团分离指标 25.4 万吨，进口矿的 13.3 万吨并不占用分离指标，新管理办法将对进 口矿进行全方位管控，强化稀土总量控制，并推动稀土供给更加 集中。 锂：据百川盈孚，本周工业级碳酸锂市场均价为 7.45 万元/吨， 较上周上涨 0.7%；电池级粗粒氢氧化锂均价为 7.1 万元/吨，较 上周持平。供给端，本周碳酸锂行业整体开工率延续升势，周度 产量环比增加。盐湖排产维持，前期复产厂家恢复生产节奏，但 现货市场呈现结构性紧张，优质电碳货源流通有限，主要生产企 业以执行长单交付为主。全产业链库存环比上涨，呈现分化特征。 生产端库存上涨，贸易环节库存略有下行，下游企业原料库存恢 复至 1-2 周安全边际。期货仓单量降至 45025 吨。需求端，2-3 ...
