market information

 

The price of rare earth products has dropped significantly across the board.

 The product has been maintained at a high level for a long time, the attitude of fear is high, the demand and willingness to ship are rising, and the low-level transaction information is frequent. At present, the spread range is large, and the mainstream price is lowered.

At present, the turnover of bismuth oxide is 32-32.5 million yuan/ton, the mainstream is about 323,000 yuan/ton; the metal bismuth is 40.3-40.8 million yuan/ton, and the mainstream is 405,000 yuan/ton. At present, there are many shipments of metal bismuth, but the buyer has taken a wait-and-see attitude and is not eager to purchase goods on the National Day. The market initiative was transferred to the buyer, the sludge waste manufacturers began to take the initiative to ship, the price range was large, the scrap price has reached 2.9-29.5 million yuan / ton, the mainstream is 292,000 tons, and the receiving is very small, it is predicted that the current bismuth oxide The 钕 is nearing the upside down, and there is still room for the scrap to fall under the competitive bidding environment.

Heavy rare earths fell simultaneously. Oxide is 185-1.9 million yuan / ton, the mainstream is 1.88 million yuan / ton; 镝 iron is 1.88 million yuan / ton; bismuth oxide is 385-390,000 yuan / ton, the mainstream is 3.87 million yuan / ton. The mainstream holders of the goods began to properly ship, the price is in the vicinity of the mainstream, the current sales are too demanding, and the competition pressure of bulk cargo is relatively large, and the continued weakness may be greater. In addition, the growth of yttrium oxide has turned down, and the current transaction volume is 17.5-178 million yuan/ton. (Rui Dao Metal Network)

 

The willingness to ship upstream has increased, and the prices of light, medium and heavy rare earth products have been lowered.

On September 18, the prices of antimony oxide, antimony oxide, antimony oxide, antimony oxide and antimony oxide were all lowered to varying degrees. Mainly due to the weak downstream demand after the Mid-Autumn Festival, the current rare earth market people have mixed views on the market outlook. The enthusiasm has improved compared with the previous period, and there is a low-priced source of supply in the market. Today, the price of bismuth oxide is 32.5-33 million yuan/ton, and bismuth oxide is falling to 32.7-33.2 million yuan/ton. The prices of antimony oxide, antimony oxide and antimony oxide decreased to 189-1.91 million yuan/ton, 390-392 million yuan/ton and 36.5-37.2 million yuan/ton, respectively. (SMM)

 

Weak callback

On September 18, the activity of the rare earth market inquiry was reduced, and the light and heavy rare earths were weakly adjusted, and the transaction was light.

The market continued to be weak, and the high transaction price moved down slightly, and the overall transaction was weak. In terms of oxides, middlemen and scrap factories are actively shipping, and the entity's offer is cautious. Although the willingness to ship at a lower price is lower, the transaction is under pressure. In this market environment, the willingness to purchase downstream is lower, and the wait-and-see mood is getting stronger. Metals traded lighter than oxides. The current inventory of downstream magnetic materials is sufficient to meet normal production, and recent price fluctuations, downstream procurement is more cautious. Overall, the shackles are still in a turbulent phase.

Stepping into September, the overall consumption of downstream magnetic materials has not improved as expected. Just need to purchase, the transaction volume is small, which affects the mood of upstream holders to a certain extent, resulting in a situation of “not busy in the peak season”. At the same time, the preliminary auction Some of the traders have also driven the mood of the holders. As a result, some traders began to sell at a low price, and the downstream waiters were more concentrated. The manufacturers were affected by the market, but there were also fewer manufacturers and the prices were still firm. At this stage, most of the entity companies believe that the short-term fluctuations have limited downside space, the price depends on the market, and it needs to be gradually set in the downstream procurement interval. The downstream enquiry is mainly based on cold and clear, and the price is looser, which is more conducive to the consolidation of the later period. The price of existing bismuth oxides is considerable compared to the beginning of the year, and the reduction in supply is still a fact. If the policy is favorable, or the group makes the stocks more centralized, the medium and heavy rare earths are still expected.

The overall consumption list of the rare earth market showed a slight decline in the prices of light and heavy rare earths. On the other hand, downstream magnetic materials companies have been inquiring, metal consumption is less than expected, and the impact of policy positive news has gradually subsided. The willingness of middlemen to ship is increasing day by day. From the perspective of supply and demand, there is no significant change in the pattern of supply and demand. In summary, the price shocks are expected to be weak tomorrow. On the other hand, although the mainstream entity's quotation is firm, the middlemen's willingness to ship has not subsided yet. In the medium and long term, 镝铽钆 may still be in a weak state. (My colored network)

Mining Niu Niuping: Sichuan's largest rare earth mine has basically completed environmental comprehensive management

“National Green Mines” is expected to add new members of Sichuan. Recently, good news came from Liangshan . Five mining companies, such as the Niulongping Rare Earth Mine in Suining County and the Huidong Lead-Zinc Mine, which participated in the selection of green mines in 2019, passed the preliminary assessment of the expert group .

The Suiningping rare earth mine in Suining County is the second largest and the largest light rare earth resource base in Sichuan. Once, this is the place of Sichuan's “gold rush”. With the rare earth boom of the 1990s, Ya Niuping once became a typical representative of disorderly mining. Nowadays, through more than 10 years of comprehensive management of the mine environment, the mining order of Maoniuping has been restored and the mine environment has been greatly improved.

How did Ma Niuping "transform"? Recently, the reporter conducted a visit.

In the past, hundreds of small workshops were dug and indiscriminate, causing environmental pollution.

Speaking of mine pollution in Qiu Niuping, Hu Zhenguang, a group of 2 villagers in Xinniu Village, Senrong Township, Suining County, still remembers. The core resource area of ​​the Maoniuping Mine is located in Qiu Niu Village, which is also the area with the most serious environmental damage in the whole Maoniuping.

On July 17, 2013, the Maoniuping rare earth mining area suffered the largest rainfall since the meteorological record in Suining County in 1957. The mudslides washed away more than 100,000 tons of residual slag in the Niulongping rare earth mining area. "These slags rushed into the river and then landed on the shore. The farmland on both sides of the river was polluted." The relevant person in charge of Suining County recalled.

Hu Zhengguang witnessed the whole process from discovery to development of the Maoniuping Mine. “The most insane time, every household has mine, and a woven bag is used to carry the shovel.”

The 42-year-old villager of the village of Machang Village, Senrong Township, lives in the village of Xiaohe, and her rice fields are also polluted. “Before the rice production capacity reached 700 kilograms, when the pollution was serious, there was almost no grain.”

The exploitation of poverty, soil washing, and unlicensed mining not only caused chaos in the Maoniuping mine, but also led to waste of resources and environmental pollution. In 1998, there were more than 100 enterprises in the selection of yakpenping, and most of them were small workshops. From 1998 to 2006, due to the lack of unified planning of the yakouping rare earth mine, the ecological environment of the mining area was seriously damaged. There were 10 large-scale mining pits and 26 abandoned slag piles in the upper reaches of the mining area. The hidden dangers of mudslides intensified, and the downstream yakura village and horse factory The lives and property of 1095 people in the village pose a threat.

At the same time, the tailings treatment of all rare earth ore dressing enterprises is not standardized, and the safety hazards and environmental pollution are becoming more and more serious, which makes the whole yak pingping fall into the predicament of “removing resources, leaving pollution, taking away wealth and leaving poverty”.

Governance, rare earth resources mining opened the curtain, 680 million yuan to manage environmental debts

How to get yak ping out of trouble? Governing the mine environment begins with the integration of mining companies.

From 2006 to 2007, the National Development and Reform Commission and the former Ministry of Land and Resources put forward new requirements for rare earth mining. On the one hand, it implements a mandatory plan for the production of rare earth mineral products and smelting and separating products; on the other hand, it proposes to completely change the “small, scattered, chaotic and weak” situation of mining enterprises and realize “one mine, one mining right, one washing and selecting plant”. , a tailings pond, a set of deep processing chain "five major systems.

In this context, the mining of mineral resources in Maoniuping has also opened the curtain of integration. Both mineral production and ore mining have been controlled, and hundreds of rare earth small workshops in Qiu Niuping have gradually withdrawn from the historical stage.

In March 2008, Suining County launched the rare earth industry access list, and made clear requirements in terms of the scope of access to enterprises, industrial and commercial registration requirements, investment requirements, industry requirements, and shareholding requirements. On June 19th of that year, Jiangxi Copper Group Co., Ltd. and Sichuan Yuyu Mining Investment Co., Ltd. and Suining County Investment Development Co., Ltd. jointly invested 1.5 billion yuan to form Sichuan Jiangtong Rare Earth Co., Ltd. (hereinafter referred to as “Sichuan Jiangxi Copper Rare Earth”). ), bidding for the development rights of the Maoniuping rare earth mining area, began resource integration, environmental pollution control and scientific development of the Maoniuping mining area.

“When we just took over, the mining area can be described as riddled with holes.” Cheng Shihu, director of the Sichuan Jiangxi Copper Rare Earth Mine Management Department, said that the company commissioned a professional organization to conduct a comprehensive investigation and assessment of the geological disasters in the Jiu Niuping mining area, and found a geological disaster in the mining area. Point 23. After the problem was discovered, the Sichuan Jiangxi copper rare earth segmentation classification carried out the governance work, and a total investment of 680 million yuan was invested to control the geological disasters and environmental hazards left over from the mining area. Up to now, the environment of the Maoniupi mine has been basically restored.

Today, technology support escorts the green development of the mine

The Maoniuping rare earth mine has been used for more than 10 years, and the mine environment has been initially restored. As the largest rare earth mine in our province, how can it take a sustainable green development while ensuring production?

Recently, the reporter came to the Maoniuping Mine and the roads were green on both sides. In the mining area, the open-pit mines are excavated neatly in layers, and the sprinklers shuttle back and forth, and there is no longer any smoke. Peng Minwen, deputy general manager of Sichuan Jiangxi Copper Rare Earth, said that a standardized transportation system and dumping site have been formed in the mining area, and a mine clearing and diversion system has been built. In terms of mining, the mining area has introduced mining three-dimensional visualization software, which realizes dynamic management of mine resources visualization, which improves work efficiency by 75% and reduces operation volume by 60% compared with traditional manual field resource management.

“We have also built a comprehensive utilization and selection project for the yakouping rare earth mineral resources, which was listed as one of the 56 major industrial projects in Sichuan Province.” Peng Minwen introduced that the project has achieved a high level of mineral recovery and effective domestically. Reduce energy consumption and save mining costs by more than 10%.

In the mining plant's concentrating plant, there is also a full-process monitoring platform – the entire process from ore excavation to processing into concentrates is recorded and ready for review. "If production is not standardized, we can find it in time." Peng Minwen said.

It is understood that at present, the digital platform of Sichuan Jiangxi copper rare earth mining and selection project is being debugged. In the future, the digital coverage of mine basic data will reach 100%, and the coverage of information system will reach over 90%. (Liangshan Prefecture Government Network reporter Zhao Lei Min Minfang)

Hunan University of Science and Technology: New progress in heterogeneous doping to enhance the performance of upconversion luminescent materials

Upconverting materials are a special class of nonlinear optical materials that convert long wavelengths into short wavelengths by absorbing two or more photons. Rare earth ion (Re3+) doped upconversion luminescent materials have significant advantages such as good light stability, sharp emission line and low biotoxicity, thus gradually replacing traditional organic fluorescent dyes and semiconductor quantum dots. However, the inherent low low up-conversion luminescence efficiency of such materials hinders their further application. Traditional synthetic methods include thermal decomposition, coprecipitation, and solvothermal (hydrothermal). It is worth noting that compared with the first two classical synthesis methods, the solvothermal method has mild preparation conditions but the obtained product. The up-conversion luminescence intensity is much weaker. Although the particle size prepared by the method is larger than the above two, it is necessary to greatly improve the luminescence intensity of the up-converting nanocrystals prepared by the solvothermal method. Doping the appropriate Re3+ or non-Re3+ ions in the matrix of colloidal nanocrystals is an important strategy for regulating the size, shape, adjustment of electron and magnetic properties, and upconversion luminescence intensity of upconverting luminescent nanocrystals. For example, the team of Professor Liu Xiaogang from the National University of Singapore reported in the form of Letter on the top journal Nature that the size, crystal phase and upconversion luminescence intensity of NaYF4 upconversion luminescence nanoparticles were simultaneously changed by Gd3+ ion doping. In addition, some studies have shown that the doping of non-Re3+ ions (such as Ca2+, Cu2+, Cd2+, Fe3+, Cr3+, Ti4+, etc.) into the crystal lattice can also significantly enhance the intensity of upconversion luminescence.

Here, Dr. Zeng Lingjun of Hunan University of Science and Technology has further enhanced the use of Sn2+ ions to enhance the upconversion luminescence intensity (Ceramics International, DOI.org/10.1016/j.ceramint.2019.06.225). Convert light. However, reports on Sn4+ ion doping are rare. The main reasons are as follows: (1) The difference in ionic radius and charge number makes it difficult for doped Sn4+ ions to enter the host host lattice; (2) Sn4+ It is highly susceptible to hydrolysis and may introduce impurities into the final product.

In this paper, the hexagonal phase Yb3+/Er3+:NaGdF4 nanocrystals co-doped with Sn4+ ions were prepared by solvothermal method. The product was analyzed by X-ray diffractometer, transmission electron microscope, inductively coupled plasma and fluorescence spectrometer. It was found that the up-conversion luminescence was the strongest when the Sn4+ doping concentration was 40%, and the sample was not doped with Sn4+ ions. In contrast, the upconversion luminescence intensity at 539 nm and 654 nm was increased by 21 times and 31 times, respectively, and the upconversion luminescence intensity prepared by the coprecipitation method was increased by 2.5 times. The reason for the enhancement is attributed to: Sn4+ doping promotes the growth of NaGdF4 nanocrystals, which greatly reduces the exposure of rare earth-activated ions to the surface quenching center; Sn4+ doping reduces the lattice symmetry of rare earth ions in NaGdF4 nanocrystals. It is advantageous to enhance up-conversion luminescence; Sn4+ doping replaces Gd3+ in the matrix lattice to further enrich the activation sites of rare earth ions in NaGdF4 nanocrystals, which is also beneficial to enhance up-conversion luminescence. In addition, the synthesis mechanism, luminescence lifetime and luminescence mechanism of upconversion nanocrystals are discussed in depth. This research has certain reference value for the preparation of high performance upconversion luminescent materials and its practical application.

This achievement was recently published in the Journal of alloys and compounds, which was mainly completed by Dr. Zeng Lingqi (first author, correspondent author) and 2019 graduate student Li Zhongyu (second author) of Hunan University of Science and Technology.
