National People's Congress Representative Guo Guanghua: Formulating Development Plan for Molybdenum Industry
According to the report of China Securities News on March 11, Guo Guanghua, deputy to the National People's Congress and chairman of Xinhualong, suggested in an interview with the reporter of China Securities News that the molybdenum industry development plan should be formulated as soon as possible, the industry access standards should be strictly implemented, the cultivation of international large-scale molybdenum industry groups should be accelerated, molybdenum product processing trade should be moderately liberalized, and the healthy and sustainable development of China's molybdenum industry should be promoted.
Guo Guanghua stated that China's proven reserves of molybdenum resources are over 20 million tons, ranking first in the world. At present, the domestic molybdenum industry presents a polarized pattern. According to statistics, small molybdenum iron plants with an annual output of less than 1000 tons account for more than 70% of the total molybdenum iron enterprises in China, but their output only accounts for about 25% of the country's total molybdenum iron production, and there are many problems such as high energy consumption, heavy pollution, and resource waste. Integrating small furnace material enterprises and improving industrial concentration is an inevitable trend in the development of the molybdenum industry.
Guo Guanghua suggests strengthening macroeconomic regulation and gradually solving the problems of "scattered, chaotic, small" and vicious competition in molybdenum production and processing enterprises. Relevant policies should be introduced to promote the integration of molybdenum industry enterprises, and large-scale molybdenum industry enterprises with technological research and development capabilities, financial strength, and environmental protection measures should be encouraged to accelerate their development; Strictly implement the relevant regulations of the national "Access Conditions for Molybdenum Industry", prohibit the construction of single molybdenum iron production enterprises, resolutely ban the elimination of external combustion rotary kilns and the elimination of reflection furnaces in roasting processes, strengthen environmental protection efforts, and achieve large-scale, mechanized, and scientific production of molybdenum enterprises through technological transformation; Promote industry integration, concentrate production capacity towards advantageous enterprises, guide the transformation of product structure towards high value-added deep processing products, and cultivate international large-scale molybdenum industry enterprise groups.
In addition, Guo Guanghua suggested that moderate opening up of molybdenum processing trade can promote the development of the domestic molybdenum industry by adopting a quota system for molybdenum processing trade and selecting qualified * * processing enterprises to carry out international trade business.
