Shenghe Resources is a specialist company of mixed ownership engaging in the extraction and trade of rare earths. Its main products include rare-earth concentrates, rare-earth metals and rare-earth catalytic materials, along with other rare and scarce metals, and its products find wide application in new energy, new materials, energy conservation and environmental protection, aerospace, defense and other fields, according to the company"s website.
Wu Chenhui, an industry analyst, told the Global Times on Monday that the establishment of this new joint stock company could enable more flexible operation through the cooperation of state-backed and private capital. Guangxi is also rich in rare-earth metal deposits.
China Rare Earth Group Co, as a state-owned enterprise, holds a large number of upstream mines, while the private mining companies can enrich the cooperation with their ready business channels and refining technologies. By integrating resources, they can adopt more business strategies, gain clearer direction, and enjoy greater operational flexibility, Wu said.
With more input into resource exploration, Guangxi has recorded solid gains in strategic mineral reserves.
