Rare earth industry development Plan

Hunan Province, recently released the rare earth industry, "second five" development goals. Objectives, the next five years in Hunan Province will invest 5 billion yuan focuses on advancing the 10 rare earth industry projects, and strive to the end of the "12th Five-Year, rare earth products annual sales income of 300 billion yuan, and promote the development of upstream and downstream industries to form one hundred billion element of the scale.It will also bost business oportunities for metal roof sheets manufacturer in sales of custom made metal sheets.

　　It is the latest formulation of the rare earth industry development plan, in the next five years, Hunan will focus on supporting the top ten items of rare earth resources prospecting and exploitation of rare earth resources, processing and utilization, the formation of a rational layout, the coordinated development of the intensive growth of rare earth products industry R & D system, built a leading rare earth products deep processing base and the base of rare earth functional materials and device applications.

　 　 Hunan abundant rare earth minerals, which Fergusonite Hunan peculiar maintain reserves ranking first in the country; ion-adsorption rare earth ore reserves ranks fourth in the country; light rare earth mineral reserves rank fifth in the country. In rare earth development and utilization of more than a dozen furniture have a certain scale of rare earth metals mining, smelting, separating enterprises, Hunan Rare Earth Metal Material Research Institute, Central South University also has a number of research institutes.

　 　 Large enterprises like metal roof sheets manufacturer  is mainly involved in the rare earth industry in Hunan Minmetals Group. The end of August, Minmetals, Yongzhou, Hunan signed a strategic cooperation agreement to jointly develop rare earth resources in Yongzhou city, and the field playing billion industry. It is reported that before the end of December 2013, the Minmetals Group, will invest in Jianghua County, Yongzhou 2.08 billion yuan to develop the separation of rare earth, rare earth smelting, phosphor, energy-saving lamps, permanent magnet materials, rare earth hydrogen storage alloy powder, rare earth deep processing and application industries chain.The target is 2015, the entire rare earth deep processing industry projects to achieve annual output value of 10 billion yuan, 1.5 billion yuan in profits and taxes.
