The Ministry of Land and Resources issued the “Announcement on Establishing the First Batch of Rare Earth Minerals National Planning Mining Areasâ€, stating that the first batch of 11 rare earth national planning mining areas have been established in Ruzhou City, Jiangxi Province, where the concentration of ionic rare earth resources is concentrated. The total planned mining area is 2534 square meters. Km, this planning area involves seven counties in the areas of Longzhou, Xunwu, Dingnan, Jixian, Anyuan, Xinfeng, Quannan, etc.
With regard to the latest measures taken by the Ministry of Land and Resources to establish the first batch of rare earth mineral country-planned mining areas, external speculations have led to a resumption of the conjecture that the “rare earth mining rights†have returned to the central government for redistribution. However, Wang Caifeng, who participated in the establishment of the first expert review meeting for rare earth mineral country planning mining areas, said that the rare earth mineral country planning mining area is not a reconfiguration of the rare earth mining rights, and the rare earth mining rights are configured according to the production of the enterprise. In any case, the resources are owned by the state. The rational allocation of resource production should be based on the layout of the company.
