The Rare Earths Trade Dispute was a trade dispute between China on one side
and several countries led by the US on the other. The dispute was over China
's export restrictions on rare earth elements, plus Tungsten and Molybdenum,
which are used to make many electronics such as smartphones. China controls
97% of the production of these elements. The US, EU and Japan argued that
the restrictions were a violation of the WTO trade regulations. In 2012, the
Obama administration filed a case with the Dispute Settlement Body of the
WTO. In 2014, the WTO ruled against China, which led China to drop the
export quotas in 2015.
China expressed disappointment with the ruling (NYT) and filed an appeal
repeating its conservation argument. The Appellate panel of the WTO, however
, upheld the ruling. The US Trade Representative hailed the ruling as a
victory for openness and fairness around the world. China dropped its export
restrictions in January 2015.
As a result of the higher prices China charged outside of China prior to the
WTO ruling, many rare earth mining companies in the U.S. and Europe were
able to raise capital, and in some instances publicly, through stock sales.
Chevron Mining spun off the Molycorp-owned Mountain Pass rare earth mine as
a free-standing public company in 2008. However, in response to the WTO
action and this growth in competition, China dropped the price of rare
earths significantly, making these entities less attractive for investment
and, in the case of Molycorp, unsustainable, forcing it into bankruptcy in
June 2015 [4]. In June 2017, the Molycorp mine was sold out of bankruptcy at
auction and was purchased by MP Mine Operations LLC, a company in which
Shenghe Resources Holding Co., a Chinese minority shareholder, is granted
the exclusive right to market all rare earths from the mine. [5] As a result
of these activities, Michael Silver, CEO of American Elements, proposed to
the White House that the U.S. acquire the Mountain Pass mine by eminent
domain and convert it into a national lab dedicated to rare earths research. | p***n 发帖数: 17190 | 2 所以只好跑去澳洲挖鏑
