2018 top ten minerals

              The hot vocabulary of the mining industry in 2018 is "My family has mines". What minerals are good in the end, and what is the most popular mine? According to the increase in the price of minerals and the market consumption and prospects, the Minerals Network and the China Mining Association Mining Culture Branch and Hubei Yongyexing Evaluation Consulting Co., Ltd. jointly launched the top ten minerals in 2018.

First place river sand

In recent years, the national environmental protection supervision, the sand yard rectification has been shut down, the small sand yard has been eliminated, some river sand mining rights have been concentrated in the hands of large sand fields, and on June 20, 2018, the Ministry of Water Resources issued "about the development of the national river. Notice of special rectification actions for lake sand mining, strengthen the management of sand mining in rivers and lakes, severely crack down on illegal sand mining, and even the normal sand mining in the section of the river section with complete procedures is affected, resulting in a shortage of river sand, and the national “Tiegongji” The project is still hot, the river sand is in short supply, and the price naturally rises all the way. From March 40-60 yuan/square to 6-July, the price soared to 200 yuan/square, and the peak period was 320 yuan/square, with the highest increase of 500-800%. The original inconspicuous river sand has caused widespread concern in the whole society and has become a hot issue, which has attracted the attention of the top leaders of the country and the National Development and Reform Commission. In the future, the demand for river sand in infrastructure projects is still huge. There are river sand mining rights or contracted river channel dredging projects. It has river sand resources, large sales volume and good profit. It is a profitable project.

Second place titanium ore

Titanium dioxide is the best white pigment in the world and is widely used in coatings, plastics, inks, ceramics and other industries. Affected by rising prices of raw materials such as ilmenite and sulphuric acid, many titanium dioxide production enterprises broke the 500-1000 yuan/ton increase at the beginning of the year, and rose 800-1000 yuan/ton in April, frequently rising in the first half of the year; From November to November, Titanium Technology, Huiyun Titanium, Ananda Titanium, Jinpu Titanium, Jinan Yuxing, Kunming Dongpu Titanium, Dongfang Titanium and many other companies once again raised domestic titanium dioxide 300-1000 yuan / Tons, foreign trade exports are raised by 50-80 US dollars / ton. After nine consecutive price hikes, Sichuan Longjing Titanium Dioxide increased by 4,200 yuan / ton, up more than 30% from the 2017 low; from May to August, titanium concentrate prices rose by more than 40%.

Third place fluorite

Fluorite is widely used in chemical, metallurgy, glass, cement and other industries. China's fluorite ore single fluorite ore is less, mainly associated with fluorite ore, difficult to select and select, flotation is difficult to produce. High barriers to entry, coupled with increasingly strict environmental protection policies, some fluorite mines and processing plants are shut down, fluorite production capacity is significantly reduced, and market demand has not decreased, so fluorite prices continue to rise, 97% fluorite powder wet powder The ex-factory price including tax rose from 2,500-2,800 yuan/ton at the beginning of the year to 3,400-3,800 yuan/ton on December 20, an increase of more than 30%. Fluorite is a national strategic mineral resource, mainly distributed in Zhejiang, Inner Mongolia, Hunan, Jiangxi, Fujian, Henan and other provinces. Large and medium-sized fluorite deposits are concentrated in the eastern coast, Central China and Central and Inner Mongolia. Investors can pay attention to fluorite resources in the future. .

Fourth phosphorus mine


Under the policy of shutting down and small production capacity, controlling production and controlling production, and slag production, China's phosphate rock production decreased in 2018. The national phosphate rock production decreased by 28.72% in January-October, including Hubei, Yunnan and Guizhou. The output of major producing areas such as Sichuan and Sichuan has dropped sharply, and the supply of ore is tight. The demand for phosphate fertilizer in the downstream is strong, supporting the price increase of phosphate ore. In the first half of the year, the price of phosphate ore rose by 30% year-on-year, and the price was raised again in December. The large-scale mining company in Guizhou announced that the price of phosphate rock was about 20%, 29 The price of the grade grade phosphate ore car is increased by 80 yuan to 470 yuan / ton, the price of 30% grade car board is increased by 80 yuan to 500 yuan / ton, and the price of cat æ²± 30% grade ship board is raised by 80 yuan. To 570 yuan / ton.

Fifth place molybdenum mine

Molybdenum is widely used in steel, chemical, electrical and electronic technologies, high-precision weapons, medicine and agriculture, and is an important strategic metal. Due to the low profitability of the molybdenum industry and environmental supervision, some small and medium-sized molybdenum mines have successively reduced production or exited the industry, production has decreased, and downstream stainless steel production has grown steadily, resulting in a steady increase in the price of molybdenum products in the first three quarters of 2018. Since the fourth quarter, the average price of molybdenum products has increased by nearly 20% compared with the average price in the second quarter. On December 20th, the price of 35-40% molybdenum concentrate was 1770-1790 yuan/ton, 40-45% molybdenum concentrate was 1790-1820 yuan/ton, 45-50% molybdenum concentrate was 1820-1850 yuan/ton. 50-55% molybdenum concentrate is 1850-1880 yuan/ton, more than 55% molybdenum concentrate is 1880-1900 yuan/ton. Since July, the price of molybdenum concentrate has exceeded 20%.

Sixth limestone

Lime is widely used in sewage treatment, waste incineration, building materials, desulfurization of power plants and ceramics plants, and with stricter environmental requirements, China's lime consumption is getting larger and larger, and the market prospect is good. China has an annual output of 240 million tons of lime, accounting for 70% of world production. Affected by environmental protection of earthen kiln, industrial upgrading, etc., the production of domestic quicklime (calcium oxide) and slaked lime (calcium hydroxide) has dropped sharply this year. The supply of lime in the market is in short supply, and the price continues to rise. Take Jiangxi as an example, the ex-factory price at the beginning of the year is 430 yuan / Tons, the price rose to 480 yuan / ton in December, the price increase exceeded 10%, and the price rose to 500 yuan / ton at the peak. In the future, we will increase the exploration of high-quality high-calcium limestone resources. Close to the lime market, such as the Pearl River Delta and the Yangtze River Delta region, we will pay close attention to the limestone mining rights and occupy high-quality limestone resources.

Seventh calcium-magnesium carbonate rock

Calcium-magnesium carbonate minerals mainly include calcite, marble, dolomite and magnesite, among which calcite and marble are mainly used to grind heavy calcium carbonate powder, which is the largest amount of inorganic filler; dolomite is mainly used for glass flux, Ceramic glaze and artificial board and real paint, in which the amount of artificial board and real paint is very large; magnesite is mainly used for fused magnesia and light burnt magnesia, etc. It is used for powder filler, artificial board and real paint development. . Affected by the increase in investment in green mines, safe production, and ore mining, the cost of calcium carbonate powder ore and calcite ore increased, causing the price of calcium carbonate powder to rise. In January, Guangyuan Chemical's full line of products increased by 50-150 yuan/ton; in May, Sichuan Gongga Snow contained 400 mesh products with a price increase of 20 yuan/ton, and 400 mesh or higher products rose by 30 yuan/ton; in December, Zhejiang The entire line of Chintang calcium products rose 10-20 yuan / ton; from January 1, 2019, Omega China company raised the price of calcium carbonate products in China, the price increase range of 8% -10%. In the future, the consumption areas of calcium carbonate and magnesia powder, such as the Pearl River Delta, the Yangtze River Delta, Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei, Xi'an, Chongqing and Sichuan, will occupy white in Guangdong, Guangxi, Hunan, Jiangxi, Guizhou, Zhejiang, Liaoning and Sichuan. High-quality calcite, marble, dolomite and magnesite resources with high levels of calcium oxide and magnesium oxide are good investments.

Eighth mine

It is an important semiconductor material widely used in optical fiber communication, infrared optics, solar cells, semiconductors, aerospace, nuclear physics detection, chemical catalysts, biomedicine, etc. It is an important strategic reserve resource. The application of é”— on optical fiber is irreplaceable by other materials. In the future 5G era, the demand for optical fiber is doubled. China's consumption in 2017 has exceeded 100 tons, reaching 114 tons. It is estimated that by 2020, the global demand for antimony will reach 209 tons.

The global proven reserves of 8,600 tons are concentrated in the United States, China and Russia, accounting for 96%. China's antimony ore is concentrated, Inner Mongolia accounts for 46%, Yunnan accounts for 34%, and both account for 80%. It is mainly produced in the antimony-lead-zinc mine and brown coal mine. The antimony-lead-zinc mine includes Hunan Shuikoushan lead-zinc mine and Guangdong. Fankou lead-zinc mine, Yunnan Huize lead-zinc mine, Fuyu brown coal mine include Yunnan Linyi Mine, Inner Mongolia Xilin Gol Ulantu Fufu Coal Mine and Hulunbeier Yimin Fuyu Coal Mine.

Ninth high potassium and high sodium feldspar

Potassium-sodium feldspar is the main raw material of ceramics and glass. The dosage is very large. The ceramics and glass industry have experienced rapid growth for decades. The high potassium and high sodium in Guangdong, Guangxi, Shandong and other regions (potassium ≥ 8%, whiteness ≥ 60 potassium long) Stone, sodium ≥ 6%, whiteness ≥ 48 sodium feldspar) feldspar has been exhausted, and now the long-term supply is in short supply, the price is between 300~1000 yuan/ton according to the grade. In order to make up for the gap between high potassium and high sodium feldspar, Guangdong is currently looking for sources of goods from Yunnan, Hubei, Liaoning, etc., and even imports some ore from India and North Korea.

Tenth kaolin

Kaolin is widely used in ceramics, paper, paint, rubber, chemical and other fields, and is one of the important inorganic fillers. High-quality kaolin with Al2O3 content ≥30 and whiteness ≥80, the price is 600-2000 yuan/ton, no matter domestic or international. Guangdong Maoming is China's important kaolin production base for papermaking. This year the government integrated kaolin resources. The central enterprise China Building Materials Group is a major shareholder. The Maoming government and some enterprises account for the development of high-end products. The kaolin ore is tight, and the low-end ceramics wash the kaolin products. price.
