In November 2021, Jiangxi provincial government issued a document abolishing the notice of the general office of Jiangxi Provincial People's Government on Further Strengthening the production, operation and management of rare earth. The abolition of the document means that the approval of new rare earth recovery projects is possible; As the leader of rare earth resource recovery in the industry, the company is expected to take the lead in benefiting.
Continuous expansion of recycling territory: starting from the acquisition of Xintai technology in 2020, the company completed the acquisition of 100% equity of Jiangxi Wanhong (6000 tons of waste magnetic materials can be processed in 2021) in May 2021; In addition, the company said in the investor's Q & A in February 2022 that the company is actively promoting the approval of Wanhong's remaining 6000 tons of production capacity.
Rare earth industry: embracing new energy + energy conservation, the boom continues: benefiting from the boom in downstream demand, rare earth prices remain high; Even after seasonal adjustment, the average price of praseodymium and neodymium oxide in April was still as high as 860000 yuan / ton, still at an all-time high; At present, the inventory of rare earth praseodymium oxide is only 3411%, with a year-on-year decline of 16%. In the medium and long term, the downstream demand, especially new energy vehicles and industrial motors, continues to be high; The supply of rare earth is subject to a quota system. Especially compared with the rapidly growing demand, the gap between supply and demand is difficult to alleviate in the short term, and the price of rare earth is expected to remain high for a long time.
