High-alumina clay fluorite mining total reduction

The Ministry of Land and Resources issued the “Circular on Release of Control Targets for High-aluminum Clay and Fluorite Mining in 2011” on the 28th and determined that the national total control index for high-alumina clay mining in 2011 was 4.3 million tons, and the total fluorite mining The quantitative control index was 10.5 million tons, both less than last year.

At the same time, the "Notice" stipulates that, before June 30, 2012, in principle, it will continue to temporarily suspend applications for the registration and exploitation of new high alumina clay and fluorite deposits.

It is reported that in 2011, the total control index of high-aluminum clay mining in the country was 4.3 million tons (ore), of which 3.39 million tons were issued in various provinces and cities, and 910,000 tons was not set aside; the total control index for fluorite mining was 10.5 million. Tons (ore), 10 million tons of which are issued by provinces and cities, and 500,000 tons is not set aside temporarily.


In 2010, for the first time, China's high-aluminous clay and fluorite mines were subject to total mining control and management. At that time, the total control index for high-aluminous clay mining was 4.5 million tons, and the total amount of fluorite mining was 11 million tons. It can be seen that if the reserve is not taken into account, the total mining volume of high-aluminum clay and fluorite mines in China will be reduced by 4.4% and 4.5%, respectively, in 2011, and the total tightening trend is obvious.

The Ministry of Land and Resources notice requires that all localities implement control indicators at the city, county, and mining enterprises, and implement them at various levels, and report the implementation of the indicator decomposition to the public after the end of May.

Fluorite resource industry is developing well

China has cherished more precious mineral resources. In 2010, the Ministry of Land and Resources implemented the total control of high-aluminum clay and fluorite mining for the first time on the basis of the total control of tungsten, antimony and rare earth minerals.

Fluorite, also known as fluorspar, is mainly composed of calcium fluoride, which is the most important source of fluorine in industry and the basic raw material for fluorine chemicals. It is closely related to new energy materials such as lithium batteries.

It is reported that China's fluorite has proved to be less than one-tenth of its recoverable reserves, while its output and exports account for half of the world's total. Low-cost exports are a waste of waste and must be protected for development.

Judging from the price alone, after China restricted the export of fluorspar, the price went up all the way. In 2001, the average price of China’s fluorite exports was around US$100/ton, and it had risen to US$250/ton in 2010. For domestic companies, in the second half of 2010, the price of fluorite from manufacturers was 1,500–1,700 yuan/ton.

The first entrepreneurial analysis report stated that there is a strong expectation of integration of domestic fluorite resources in order to protect domestic fluorite resources and realize the upgrading of the fluorine chemical industry. The integration of upstream fluorite resources will lead the entire fluorine chemical industry in China to become a “golden industry”.
