Beijing has monitored the exports of rare land and exposes global shortcomings and exposes dependence on Chinese supply chains of industry.
However, in recent years, China itself relied on rare land supply from an unexpected source: the relatively small and war-torn economy.
Although China is the manufacturer in the world’s best places, it is still importing raw materials from abroad.
The Critical Minerals Security Program at CNBC Center for Strategic and International Studies, China’s total rare land imports amounted to about 57%.
According to Chinese customs data, exports to China’s rare place have been significantly taken in 2018 and reached about 42,000 metric tons of about 2023.
Baskaran added that the heavy rare land element, which is generally less abundant in the crust, which is generally less abundant in the crust, increases the cost and scarcity.
“Myanmar production has significantly strengthened China’s dominant position, and today has effectively strengthened a facto monopoly on the global heavy rare land supply chain.”
The country has become a major rare lands, including two very common rare lands, disprotions and terbium, which played a large role in high-tech production, including defense and military, aerospace and renewable sectors.
“This dynamic has caused a supply chain that Bashkaran said, which is mainly in China, where the production is focused and the value of low flow in Myanmar.
Why Myanmar?
According to CNBC, Myanmar is the house of deposits with higher heavy rare land content, David Merriman, project research director for the project, told CNBC.
It is exploited through leathering methods that apply “ion adsorption clay” or IAC deposits, chemical reagents and come to high environmental costs.
According to Merriman, the vast majority of economic operations in the world are south of China to mid 2010. However, as Beijing is newly applied Environmental Management and Standards Many of these projects in the rare Earths industry began to close.
“Myanmar, especially in the north of the country, in many IAC deposit areas in China,” Merriman said.
“You started to see a very fast structure from the new IAC mine in Myanmar, replace the production of local Chinese. This new IC projects have been involved in the development of many Chinese businesses.”
These IAC Miners in Myanmar are sent by these IAC miners, then sent in the form of “rare land oxides” in the form of “rare land oxides” and told CNBC.
In 2024 a report Non-profit, which is aimed at the global witness, environment and human rights abuses, has been effectively excluded in Myanmar, “China and local communities”.
China’s rare ground risks
Experts also provided the confidence of myanmar for the rare lands of China.
According to the research of the global witness, most of the heavy rare places from Myanme are caused by the nation of China. However, after the fierce military coup in 2021, the military and armed groups of the military and armed groups fought to maintain control of the opposition in the area.
“Myanmar is a risky jurisdiction that is in mind that the ongoing civil war is a risky jurisdiction. In 2024, a group of armed rebels seized the sites responsible for the world’s hard rare land production,” said CSIS ‘Bashkaran.
Since the arrest, there are information about the supply violations that cause spikes in some heavy rare places. According to Reuters The report, Kia, wanted to use the sources against Beijing.
The demonstrations of Chinese customs information, the import of unique land oxides from myanmar, fell in the first five months of the year in a third compared to the same period last year.
“Myanmar would fight all the exports of the rare land fodder for China and China to meet the demand for rare lands in a short time,” the project Meyeriman said.
Not surprisingly, Beijing is trying to diversify the source of heavy rare places.
According to Merriman, IAC deposits in the nearest countries, including Malaysia and Lao, including Chinese involvement in China.
However, he notes that unique space will provide difficulties for miners that environmental standards are expected to be higher.
China’s decision to carry out heavy rare land elements, other countries can warn about the cost of preparing such projects. One report In 2022, the Chinese media group documented the Chinese Media Group, how the former IAC operation sites in southern China had damaged poisonous water and contaminated land and damage to local farmers.
