Draft plans for non-ferrous metals released

Shan Fushan, vice president of the China Nonferrous Metals Industry Association, unveiled the draft "12th Five-Year Plan" for the nonferrous metals industry for the first time at the 2010 China Copper-Cobalt Resources Summit. According to the plan, by 2015, the output of ten non-ferrous metals (copper, aluminum, lead, zinc, nickel, tin, antimony, magnesium, titanium sponge, and mercury) will be controlled within 41 million tons.
Authoritative sources revealed that although the overall plan of the non-ferrous industry will not independently become part of the national “Twelfth Five-Year Plan”, the rare metals industry in the non-ferrous metals sector will appear as an independent part in the national plan for tungsten, molybdenum, tin, The development objectives and directions of five rare metals, ie, rare earth and rare earth, are required. In addition, the "Rare Metal Production and Operation Regulations" is being drafted.
The China Non-Ferrous Metals Industry Association predicts that in 2015 China's apparent consumption of four basic metals will reach 43.8 million tons. Including: 8.3 million tons of copper, 24 million tons of aluminum, 5 million tons of lead and 6.5 million tons of zinc. According to the draft, in the next five years, the non-ferrous metals industry will be based on domestic and foreign energy, resources, and environmental conditions to meet the needs of the domestic market, make full use of both domestic and foreign mineral resources, vigorously develop the recycling economy, and strictly control the blind expansion of smelting capacity. ,Eliminate backward production capacity. It is planned that by 2015, crude copper smelting will be controlled within 5 million tons, electrolytic copper will be controlled between 6.5 million and 7 million tons, alumina will be controlled within 41 million tons, electrolytic aluminum will be controlled within 20 million tons, and lead smelting will be controlled. Within 5.5 million tons, zinc smelting is controlled within 6.7 million tons. According to figures in the industry, in terms of figures, the space for the expansion of total non-ferrous metal smelting capacity in the future will be quite limited.
In terms of self-sufficiency in resources, the planning requirements, through domestic development and cooperation with foreign mineral resources, will strive to secure raw materials for copper, aluminum and zinc minerals in China by 40%, 80% and 50% respectively by 2015. The production of recycled refined copper and recycled aluminum and recycled lead accounted for 40%, 30% and 30% of the total output of refined copper, electrolytic aluminum and refined lead respectively.
In terms of increasing the degree of concentration, the planning requirements will lead to the top ten companies in copper, aluminum, lead, and zinc production accounting for 90%, 90%, 70%, and 70% of the country's total production by 2015. It is recommended that the country continue to encourage the development of local large enterprise groups.
The plan encourages the development of some deep processing, new technologies and new material projects. According to the plan, by 2015, a number of high-end product production capacities will be formed, including 600,000 tons of high-precision copper plates, 850,000 tons of precision copper pipes, and 500,000 tons of electrolytic copper foils; vigorous development of industrial aluminum materials will be basically met in 2015. Domestic demand. Focus on research and development to meet the needs of national economic development of light high-strength structural materials, information functional materials, high-purity materials, rare earth materials, military equipment and other supporting equipment and industrial technology.
According to the above-mentioned authoritative sources, the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology is drafting the “Twelfth Five-Year Plan” for the rare metals industry, which will be independent of non-ferrous metal planning and have a higher level. The rare metal plan will involve five rare metals such as tungsten, molybdenum, tin, antimony and rare earth. The planning mainly includes total control, determination of income targets, target of profits and taxes, and encouragement of development directions. Taking the tungsten industry as an example, six key development areas have been established, including tungsten carbide deep processing, tungsten-based high-performance alloys, special-performance tungsten filaments, and equipment manufacturing process auxiliary tools.
