1 World mineral resource distribution and world mining industry

development

1.1 World mineral resource distribution

The mine resource is fundamental to social and economic development in all countries. According to the research of the

Information Centre of the Ministry of Land and Resources, geographical distribution of world mine resource is not

proportional. Among 40 major mines, 13 mines (manganese, chromium, cobalt, molybdenum, vanadium, platinum family

metals, lithium, niobium, tantalum, zirconium, rare earths, sylvite, and natural alkali) have their 3/4 reserve centered in three

countries, and 23 mines (tungsten, magnesite, ilmenite, rutile, tin, stibium, phosphor, boron, diamond, barite, plus the

abovementioned 13 mines) have their 3/4 reserve centered in five countries. The lowest proportion of the reserve of the top

three countries with the largest reserve of the major forty mines in the total world reserve is 30.7%, and the highest

proportion 99.5%. The lowest proportion of the reserve of the top five countries with the largest reserve of the major forty

mines in the total world reserve is 45.8%, and the highest proportion about 100%.

1.2 Distribution and development trend of ferrous metal mines in the world

1.2.1 Rich resource of ferrous metal mines in the world

According to a report of the USGS (U. S. Geological Survey), the iron ore reserve in the world is 160 billion tons,

reserve base 370 billion tons, iron metal reserve 80 billion tons, and reserve base 180 billion tons at the end of 2004. The iron

mines are centered in Australia, Brazil, Russia, Ukraine, Kazakhstan, India, USA, Canada, and South Africa.

The manganese resource is rich in the world. The manganese reserve on the land is 900 million tons (metal weight is

used below). The USGS predicted the annual manganese demand in 2000 would be 807-1379 tons based on the manganese

demand increase speed of 1.4% in 1983, and the current reserve was enough for use for over 50 years. The reserve base is

four times of the reserve. The benthal manganese reserve is richer. There are 400 billion tons on the bed of the Pacific Ocean.

Moreover, 10-15 million tons of manganese nodule are generated per year.

The chromite reserve in the world is 1,056,890,000 tons (commercial ore). The original chromite demand was 2.49

million tons in 1983. If the average annual increase speed was 4.9%, the demand volume is 5.66 million tons in 2000. The

chromite reserve can be used for over 150 years from now on. Someone estimates the mining time is 346 years.

The nickel reserve in the world is 52.62 million tons. In 1982, the nickel consumption volume was 680,000 tons in the

world. If the average annual growth rate was 3.1%, the demand volume would be 1.3 million tons in 2000. The current

reserve can be used for over 53 years. Someone estimates that the mining time of static reserve of nickel in the world is 76

years.

The reserves of cobalt, tungsten, molybdenum, and nickel are respectively 3.63, 2.8, 5.44, and 4.35 million tons, and the

guarantee mining time is long. The mining time of cobalt on the land is 105 years, tungsten and molybdenum 50 years, and

vanadium 50 years.

1.2.2 Ferrous metal mines are distributed in a few countries

Iron ores are reserved in the former Soviet Union, USA, Brazil, Australia, Canada, India, South Africa, Sweden, France,

Venezuela, and Liberia. The reserve in these countries accounts for 90% of the total reserve in the world, and the reserve in

the former Soviet Union, USA, Brazil, Australia, and Canada accounts for 75% of the total reserve.

Manganese mines are mainly reserved in South Africa, the former Soviet Union, Cabon, Australia, Brazil, and India. The

reserve in these countries accounts for 99% of the total, and 80% of the reserve is located in South Africa and the former

Soviet Union.

Chromite mines are reserved in South Afirca, the former Soviet Union, Zimbabwe, Finland, India, and the Philippines.

The reserve in these countries accounts for 96% in the total, and the reserve in South Africa and the former Soviet Union

accounts for 91% in the total.

Nickel mines are mainly located in Cuba, Canada, the former Soviet Union, Indonesia, South Africa, Greece, and

Australia. The reserve in these countries accounts for 82% in the total.

Besides, reserves of cobalt, tungsten, molybdenum, and vanadium are centered in a few countries. The reserves in top

five countries with the largest reserve volume of the four metals account for 90%, 80%, 95%, and 99% in the total reserve in

the world, and the reserves in top three countries with the largest reserve volume of the four metals account for 76%, 70%,

96%, and 94% in the total reserve in the world (Table 2).

Among iron and ferroalloy metal mines, the former Soviet Union, Australia, South Africa, Canada, Brazil, India, China,

and the USA have more than three kinds of metal, and the reserve of each kind of metal ranks among the top 10 in the world,

where the former Soviet Union has 10 kinds of metals, Australia 6, South Africa 5, Canada 5, India 4, Brazil 4, China 3, and

the USA 3.

October 2005, and the start date is March 2007.

1.3 World nonferrous metal mineral distribution and development trend

1.3.1 World copper mine resource

In the past decade, the output of copper mines in the world increased continuously. In 2004, the output of copper

concentrate was 14,488,000 tons, which was the highest annual output in the history. The average annual growth rate was

2.29%. Major mine copper manufacturers comprise of Chile (accounting for 37.4% in the total output of the world), the US

(8.0%), Peru (7.1%), Australia (5.9%), Indonesia (5.7%), Russia (5.1%), and China (4.2%). At present, the copper output of

copper concentrate in Chile accounts for 1/3 in the world, and the output in China ranks at the seventh place in the world.

States whose copper output of copper concentrate decreased compared with 2000 include the US (decreasing by 5.74%),

Indonesia (5.12%), Canada (3.0%), Papua New Guinea (4.03%), and South Africa (14.4%). Large-size and super large-size

copper mines that have been prospected in the world are under exploitation, so the mine copper output grows stably in the

world.

Copper mines are divided into porphyry type, sand shale type, copper-nickel sulfid type, pyrite type,

copper-uranium-gold type, natural copper type, pulse type, carbonic acid rock type, and silicon rock type.

Porphyry copper mine has high reserve and low grade, and can be mined opencast with large-scale machinery. The

reserve of this kind of copper mine is several hundred million tons, and the copper grade is often less than 1%. The average

ore amount of each mine of 103 porphyry mines in the world is 550 million tons, and the average copper grade is 0.6%. This

is one of the important copper industry type in the world. Prospected porphyry copper mines are distributed: a) around the

Pacific Ocean, including the narrow belt at the edge of South America and North America, such as Lonex and Falicpa in

Canada, Bingham, Butte, Morenci, Yily, and Santa Rita in the US, Cananea and Racridera in Mexico, Cerro Colorado in

Panama, Mechigily, Cerro Verde, and Cuajone in Peru, El Abra, Chuquicamata, La Escondida, EI Salvador and El Tester in

Chile; b) Tethys porphyry copper mine belt, including Lexsk in Hungary, Maidan Pek in Yugoslavia, Sar Cheshmeh in Iran,

and Chargy in Pakistan; and c) Middle Asia, including Mongolia, Karl Makel in the east of Uzbekistan, Kounrad to the north

of Balkhash Lake in Kazakhstan, Charganz Bulga in the south of Eldertu Janelb and Alenel in the east of Eldertu Janelb in

central northern Mongolia.

Sand shale copper mine refers to the layer-control copper mines in sediment of different ages. The deposit is generated

from a set of sediment rock or sediment transformation rock. Sand shale copper is one of the major copper mine types in the

world, accounting for around 30% of world copper reserve. The deposit is characterized by large size, high grade, and

multiple satellite components, so the economic value is very high. Apart from the abovementioned copper mine belts,

� 5 �

Mining

deposits of this kind are widely distributed in Udokan and Dzhezkazgan in the former Soviet Union, White Pine and Belt

copper belt that extends to the southwest of Canada in Montana State, US, Colo Colo copper belt in Bolivia, Akinak

large-scale copper mine in Afghanistan, and Saloba in Brazil. The last two copper mines were found in recent years.

Pyrite copper mine refers to the deposit that relates to seabed volcanism and contains high-volume copper, lead and zinc,

and is called block sulfide deposit in the west. At least 420 such type of deposits have been found in the world, mainly in

Canada, America, the former Soviet Union, Spain, Portugal, Cyprus, South Africa, and Japan.

Block sulfide mine was first found on the raphe of east Pacific Ocean, north latitude 21°, in 1978. The grades of copper

(6%) and zinc (29%) are high. On the raphe, a multi-metal block sulfide deposit was found. The bed is 970m long, 200m

wide, and 35m high, and has 250 million tons of mineral amount. This was the first bed that qualified for industrial

exploitation. The highest copper content is 11%, and zinc 0.8%. The ore also contains silver (PPM), molybdenum (0.03%)

and tin (0.03%). Important deposits of this type consist of Sudbury, Thompson, and Linlyc in Canada, Duluth complex rock

in the US, Pechenga, Noril’sk-Talnakh, and “October” in the former Soviet Union, Kambartel complex rock in Australia,

Goderah belt in Finland, and super-large-size Baijiajuzi mine in Jinchuan, China.

Apart from the above types, there are also pulse type, natural copper type, carbonic acid rock type, and silicon rock type,

and these types account for 3.6% of world total copper reserve. These types are important for some countries. Silicon rock

type is an important industrial type in China, and the copper of this type accounts for 28% of the total copper reserve in China.

East state should seek high-quality deposits with high value, high grade, large size, proper shape, and clear mine boundary

according to specific geological conditions. The ore should be easy to process, and should have valuable by-products in order

to make high profit and realize long-term production. The most important factor is high grade, and high-grade copper deposit

mainly comes from pyrite copper mine caused by volcanism, layered deposit, and some silicon rock deposit.

Global or regional copper mine zones and belts comprise (1) Mid Cenozoic copper-gold belt around the Pacific Ocean,

in particular porphyry copper mine zones in Chile-Peru Andes in east Pacific Ocean, southwest of America, and southwest of

Canada, and porphyry copper-gold mine zones in the Philippines, Indonesia, and Papua New Guinea in southwest Pacific

Ocean; (2) Alps-Himalayas Mesozoic porphyry copper mine belt, including porphyry copper mines in Yugoslavia, Iran,

Pakistan, and Tibet, China; (3) Mid Asia-Mongolia Paleozoic porphyry copper mine belt including Uzbekistan, Kazakhstan,

Mongolia, and northeast China. (4) Sand shale copper mine belt in Zambia and Zaire in central Africa; (5) Five-lake area in

the US and Canada; (6) Pyrite copper mine zone in Canada; (7) Shale copper mine zone in Poland and Germany in central

Europe; (9) Copper-nickel sulfid mine zone in Siberia in Russia; (10) Udokan sand shale copper mine zone in Siberia in

Russia; (11) Pyrite copper multi-metal mine zone in Urals, Russia and Altai Mountains, Kazakhstan; (12) Copper mine zone

in Malan Jkhand in India; (13) Sand shale copper mine zone in Akinak, Afghanistan; (14) Copper-uranium-gold mine zone in

Olympic Dam in South Australia; and (15) Sand shale copper mine zone in Caro Jacksrob, Brazil.

Note: The total figures have errors caused by decimal carry.

From 2005 to 2007, nine copper mines with annual output of over 50,000 tons were put into production in the world

except for China. The total output of the nice mines is about 1.04 million tons. If the output goals can be achieved, the output

of the nine mines will account for around 7% of the total world output.

The total sum of the reserve and resource amount of the nine mines is 26.36 million tons. Feasibility research on the

mines should be in accordance with current industrial standards, and exclude non-economic reserve (inferred resource

amount).

The average exploitation cost in cash is US$0.46/pound (US$1,013.13/ton). The cash operation costs of five mines are

below the average level, and the total reserve and resource amount of the five mines is 12.84 million tons, accounting for

48.7% of the total amount of the nine mines. See the following table:

at least four large-sized deposits can be found there, boasting a lead and zinc reserve of 8.6 million tons and a silver reserve

of 74 million tons.

Kazakhstan, which is the major area of lead and zinc concentration in Middle Asia, boasts three ore belts: (1) In Altay

copper-lead-zinc ore belt lie several large multi-metal deposits and some of the deposits even extend into the territory of

P.R.C. Among them, Leninnuogelsk deposit boasts a lead and zinc reserve of 3.8 million tons, and grades of the compact ores

are 15.25%(lead), 28.8% (zinc), 248 g/ton (silver) and grades of the disseminated ores are 2.5% (lead), 5.1% (zinc), 0.11%

(copper) and 25.4 g/ton (silver); Jiliangnov deposit boasts a lead and zinc reserve of over five million tons and grades of

primary ores are 1.7% (lead), 2.9 %(zinc), 0.3% (copper) and 3.9% (sulfur), and average grades of the massive ores are

� 9 �

Mining

12.34% (lead), 18.4% (zinc), 1.53% (copper) and 19.16% (sulfur); (2) More than ten lead and zinc deposits have been found

in Jungar Alatao mineral area, which is in the eastern part of Kazakhstan, and one of the ore belts is 150 kilometers long and

20-50 kilometers wide; Jeckli deposit boasts a lead and zinc reserve of 5.5 million tons and a combined grade of 11%; (3)

Kalatao multi-metal mineral belt, which is in the southwestern edge of the country, is 600 kilometers long and a couple of

boasts a lead and zinc reserve of 12.39 million tons and a combined grade of 4.13%.

Jiande lead and zinc deposits, the greatest deposit in the world, is located in Korean Motianli mineral area. It consists of

three ore belts and nine mineral beds, and boasts a lead and zinc reserve of 70 million tons and a combined grade of 7%-10%.

Due to such reasons as poor exploitation, however, the reserve of the deposit has been recognized by the world. The deposit,

together with Huangshangou lead and zinc deposit in Jilin, China, and Qingchengzi lead and zinc deposit in Liaoning,

composes the famous China-Korea Proterozoic lead and zinc ore belt.

Currently, the measured reserve of lead and zinc, based on reserve base, only accounts for 9.3% of lead and zinc

resources worldwide, therefore, the potential of mineral searching is huge.

1.3.3 World magnesium resources

Magnesium, the element that represents 2.1%-2.7% of the crust, ranks the sixth of all elements and is the fourth metal

element that next to aluminum, iron and calcium. It mainly comes from seawater, natural salt lake water, dolomite, magnesite,

manasseite and olivine. It is estimated that magnesite worldwide is 12 billion tons in amount, and manasseite contained in the

seawater is about 6×1016 tons; Furthermore, there are a large amount of dolomite and magnesium contained in salt lakes,

which makes magnesium a huge treasure to us.

Magnesium and its alloys, by far the lightest metal structural material applied in industry, is characterized by light

weight, low density, high intensity, good rigidity and good performance in pressing and casting, as well as such functions as

noise reduction, electromagnetism shielding, shock absorption and being recyclable. Reputed by material experts as the green

engineering material with the hugest developing and applying potential in the century, magnesium and its alloys have been

used as the substitutes for aluminum and steel and widely adopted in aircrafts, airplanes, missiles, cars, computers,

communication products and consumer electronics manufacturing, showing a trend of rocketing production and consumption.

Since the middle 1990s, as the huge demand for magnesium in various fields, R&D and application of magnesium and

its alloys have entered a rapid growing period, receiving special attention from developed countries. In a recent decade, the

annual output of magnesium worldwide grows by 8% on average, and the global output exceeded 0.6 million tons in 2004,

with such main countries of production as China (0.45 million tons), Canada (55,000 tons), Russia (50,000 tons), U.S.A.

(43,000 tons), Serbia (40,000 tons), Israel (33,000 tons), Kazakstan (18,000 tons) and Brazil (11,000 tons).

1.4 World mineral resources prospecting

According to the statistics from the annual reports of Canadian MEG, the input of solid mineral resources prospecting

worldwide has climbed steadily since 1993, reaching its peak of US$ 5.2 billion in 1997 but shrinking in the following five

consecutive years: the input dropped by 29% and 24% in 1998 and 1999 respectively; it declined with the smallest margin of

7% to US$ 2.6 billion in 2000 and fell substantially by 15.4% to US$ 2.2 billion in 2001. The investment dropped to its

lowest of US$ 1.9 billion in 2002 and climbed by 26% to US$ 2.4 billion in 2003.

The prospecting budgets of 917 mineral prospecting companies with investment bigger than US$ 100,000 in 2003 show

the regional distribution of current prospecting costs is as follows:

Rank Country/region Prospecting costs 1 Latin America 517.9 2 Canada 471.4 million 3 Africa 374.2 million

4 Australia 339.3 million

On November 8, 2006, Canadian Metals Economics Group announced its 17th annual report of prospecting budgets of

world mineral companies: The budgets of 1,620 mineral companies (with a prospecting budget exceeding US$ 100,000 each)

total US$ 7.13 billion; Given the prospecting budgets of the surveyed companies account for 95% of the world total, MEG

estimated that commercial prospecting costs worldwide will reach US$ 7.5 billion in 2006, up 47% than 2005 and three times

as much as the lowest in 2002, reaching a record high since 1989 when the budget survey was started by the company.

The mineral prospecting surge since 2002 was caused not by large and medium-sized mineral companies but by primary

prospecting companies, and since 2002 when investment in mineral resources prospecting dropped to its lowest level, the

investment made by primary prospecting companies has grown by 600%, accounting for a majority of the prospecting cost

increments. In 2004, the primary companies exceeded large mineral companies in prospecting budgets for the first time, with

US$ 7 million more budgets than the latter; Prospecting budgets of the primary prospecting companies have taken up more

than 50% of the world total in 2006.

As for regions, various parts of the world witnessed a rising prospecting budgets in 2006. Latin America, the place

attracting huge sums of investment for more than a decade, remains as a paradise for prospecting investors and is followed by

Canada. Europe, Middle East and part of Asia (which are called by MEG as “other regions”) take the second place, emerging

as new highlights in recent years, and the surge in prospecting costs of Russia, China and Mongolia make “other regions”

outpace Africa as the third winner. Africa ranks the fourth, and Australia, U.S.A. and the Pacific/Southeast Asia regions

ranked the fifth, sixth and seventh respectively.

As for prospecting stages, prospecting input in detailed prospecting stage (or late Stage) has taken a vital part in the new

prospecting surge, with an average growth speed exceeding that of grassroots prospecting. Since 2005 when input in detailed

prospecting overran that in grassroots prospecting for the first time (a margin of US$ 3 million), input in detailed prospecting

has obviously exceeded that in grassroots prospecting, while in the decade before 2004, input in grassroots prospecting was

50% more than that in detailed prospecting stage annually.

The year 2006 witnessed a big progress in world mineral resources prospecting. Pebble Copper, Molybdenum & Gold

Mines, which is located in Alaska, U.S.A. and owned by Northern Royal Corporation, is a case in point. The mine is

composed of Pebble western bed demanding only surface mining and eastern bed that is buried much deeper and provides

metal with higher grade, and copper, gold and molybdenum contained in both beds are first class in quality. The east bed of

Pebble mine was found through drilling at the end of 2005 and the drilling turned out as a great success in 2006. Further

drilling of the east bed is expected to begin in the middle of February 2007. The mineral resources of Pebble (completed on

January 24, 2006) is estimated to be 3.026 billion tons, and the grades of copper, gold and molybdenum are 0.28%, 0.32 g/ton

and 0.01% respectively; The estimated mineral resources (completed on March 4, 2005) is 1.832 billion tons, and the grades

of the above three metals are 0.60%, 0.37 g/ton and 0.04% respectively. Pebble has become the largest porphyry copper &

molybdenum mineral bed in North America.

In 2006, Ord River Resources made a great progress in Copper Flats, which is located on the eastern part of Kimberly,

Australia. Grade of the seven samples got within the scope of 60 meters averages 24.49% (an ordinary deposit with a grade

of 0.5% can be explored), and the highest grade even reaches 42.5%, possibly making the deposit one of the greatest

discoveries in Australian copper history. The deposit, controlled by specific stratum and structure, is at least 1.5 kilometers

long, a couple of kilometers wide and 3-8 meters deep, extending one kilometer upwards. Based on current exploration area

of 692 kilometers, Ord River Resources applied for another 2,000 square kilometers for exploration, and planned to

implement drilling to determine the grades and scale of the deposit. The company will conduct detailed prospecting in

drought seasons of 2007, and the deposit scale is estimated at five million tons.

Canadian Ivanhoe Mines Ltd., following its great discoveries known as Canadian Isabel nickel deposit and Mongolian

Oyu Tolgoi deposit, found another world-class copper-gold-uranium deposit in Amethyst Castle, Queensland, Australia. The

mineral resources are possibly buried 200 meters deep under the earth, and the types of the resources are extremely similar to

DC deposit owned by BHP Billiton.

Mining

Jabal Sayid copper deposit, located in Saudi Arabia on the shore of the Red Sea, boasts an average mineral grade of

2.74% within the scope of 122-meter radius (the first drill), therefore, it is estimated to be a world-class deposit. The finding

of the copper deposit may make Saudi Arabia an important copper production country. Algerian Oued Amizour zinc mineral

project may also become a world-class zinc deposit. The first drill completed in 2006 showed that the average zinc grade

reaches 6.58% at the depth of 184 meters, and the average grade is 10.69% at the depth of 64 meters.

1.5 Development of world mining industry

1.5.1 Development of mining industry in major countries

The developed countries with high degree of industrialization, represented by the U.S.A. and Japan, as well as Russia, a

country experiencing economic transition (also called “developing country”), are both characterized by huge consumption of

mineral resources. As for oil consumption in 2002, U.S.A., Japan and Russia posted the consumption of 894 million tons, 243

million tons and 123 million tons respectively, and the combined oil consumption in the said three countries accounted for

35.8% of the world total. As for steel output and consumption in 2002, Japan posted steel output of 107.25 million tons and

consumption of 129.09 million tons; U.S.A. posted steel output of 91.59 million tons and consumption of 63.95 million tons;

Russia posted steel output of 59.78 million tons, which are mainly used to support its own iron ore production (84.3 million

tons). Facing such a huge demand for mineral resources, the said three countries, except Russia that barely can rely on itself,

have to depend heavily on import. In 2002, U.S.A. produced 51.5 million tons and imported 12.5 million tons of iron ores;

Japan relied on import for all the iron ores it needed and imported 129.09 million tons. The above countries, U.S.A. and

Japan in particular, not only attach great importance to exploitation of mineral resources in their own countries, but also pay

their attention to global mineral resources.

The said countries, abundant in mineral resources, boast large amount of mineral products and huge export. The mineral

industry plays a crucial role in the national economy of the countries. Canada ranks the world’s first regarding its huge silver,

indium, potassium salt and sulfur reserve, and takes an important part in the world as well as for its nickel, tungsten,

columbium, uranium, cadmium, selenium, lead and zinc. The mineral products produced in Canada, a large part of which are

used for export, amounted to US$ 54.4 billion in 2001, representing 7.78% of Canada’s GDP total.

Australia takes the world’s first place regarding its uranium, lead & zinc, tantalum and cadmium reserve, and plays an

important role for such mineral reserve as bismuth, zirconium, hafnium, coal, ilmenite, bauxite, gold, diamond, iron ore,

silver and rare earth elements. Australia is not only the largest producer of many important mineral resources, but also the

world’s No.1 exporter of alumina, coal, ilmenite, iron core, refined lead, monazite, rutile and zircon. In 2001, Australia’s

mineral output amounted to US$ 40 billion, accounting for 8.6% of the country’s GDP total. South Africa ranks the first in

the world regarding its gold, platinum group metal elements, chrome, manganese, vanadium and titanium reserve, and takes

an important part as for its zircon, vermiculite, phosphate, fluorite, diamond, lead & zinc, nickel, antimony and asbestos

reserve. South Africa is not only the world’s No.1 producer of andalusite, chromite, gold, platinum group metal elements,

vanadium and vermiculite, but also a major supplier of antimony, manganese, titanium and zirconium. South Africa posted its

mineral output of US$ 7.8 billion in 2001, which represented 7.5% of its GDP total.

The developing countries like Brazil, Chile, Peru and India as well as such countries in economic transition as Mongolia

and Kazakstan are also abundant in mineral resources, and mineral production plays a crucial role in their national economy,

the first four countries in particular. Due to relatively poor social development, however, the prospect of mineral resources

exploration is bright, which makes the said countries the most attractive countries in the world for mineral exploration.

Brazil is extremely abundant in mineral resources, playing a crucial role in the world regarding its iron, aluminum,

manganese, precious stone, niobium & tantalum, gold, tin and kaolin reserve. Brazil, the largest mineral producer in Latin

America, boasted iron ore and aluminum outputs of 240 million tons and 13.19 million tons respectively in 2002, and mineral

output accounted for 8.3% of its GDP total.

Chile, reputed as the “Nation of Copper Mines”, is the world’s largest copper producer and exporter, and is also

China Business Guide

� 12 �

abundant in other mineral resources like gold, silver, molybdenum and rhenium. As a country with many salt lakes, Chile

ranks the first in the world regarding its lithium reserve and the sixth regarding its boron reserve. In the past years, the output

of Codelco (Corporacion Nacional del Cobre de Chile) alone has represented 3.4% of Chile’s GDP total.

Peru, abundant in nonferrous metals and noble metals, especially boasts its copper, lead & zinc, silver, molybdenum and

tin reserve. Peru posted its mineral output of US$ 5.98 billion in 2001, which accounted for 11.2% of its GDP total.

As a country abundant in resources in Asia, India boasts plentiful iron, aluminums, coal, dolomite, gesso, calcareous

rock and mica, being the world’s largest producer of pinite and mica splitting. India ranks the first in the world regarding its

chromite, coal and barite output, and the sixth regarding its iron, aluminum and manganese. In 2001, India’s mineral output

amounted to 595.09 billion rupees (US$ 13.03 billion), which accounted for 2.6% of its GDP total.

Though Mongolia is a nation economically dominated by stock raising, the mineral industry has played an important

role in its national economy during past years, accounting for 11.7% of the country’s GDP total in 2001. Fluorite, copper and

gold produced by Mongolia take a certain part in the world, and almost all of Mongolia’s refined copper ores and refined

fluorite ores are used for export.

As a nation in economic transition, Kazakstan is abundant in mineral resources like oil, natural gas and coals. It also

boasts huge amount of chromite, iron, aluminum and lead & zinc reserves. Kazakstan’s mineral output represented 9% of its

GDP total in 2001.

1.6 Development of world mining technologies

Rapid development of mining globalization since 1990s has greatly boosted progress in mining technologies and

resulted in revolutionary changes in global mining industry. Scientific progresses in terms of mineral prospecting, exploration,

melting, processing and utilization lead to remarkable expansion of resources that serve as the base of mining industry as well

as a big rise in production efficiency and a sharp decline in cost. With greater respect for environment and health, high-tech

mining industry is more competitive and sustainable.

1.6.1 Development of mineral prospecting technologies

Technological progresses in the field of global mineral resources prospecting mainly include deep prospecting, ocean

and polar prospecting, resources representation, data translation, geophysical, chemical and remote integrated prospecting,

application of information technology as well as field data collection and translation, etc. Large-scale application of advanced

technologies makes mineral prospecting go further and deeper geographically: As for land prospecting, mineral prospecting

extends into the cold arctic region; And as for ocean prospecting, mineral prospecting in offshore areas and deep water areas,

oil prospecting in particular, develops rather quickly. Currently, most part of the newly-added measured oil reserves and

output comes from the sea, and ocean oil reserve and output have respectively accounted for 25% and 36% of the world’s

total. Brazil has produced oil in ocean area at the depth of 1,709 meters (5,607 feet) in May 1997, and the sea drilling can go

as deep as 3,000 meters; Mineral prospecting go further as for mining depth. For instance, the mining depth of gold mines in

Transvaal, South Africa has reached nearly 5,000 meters. In 2000, Cementatlon Mining Ltd., based on established contracts,

drilled a 4,000-meter-deep hole for Avgold in Orange Free State, South Africa.

Geophysical technologies are progressing rapidly towards the following aspects: low costs, faster data collection and

translation, high resolution and low frequency technology, etc. U.S.A., for instance, has shorten the translation period of

earthquake materials by 40% through the application of super computers, which has greatly saved time and costs; 3D seismic

imaging technology and technology of drilling for horizontal well have saved billions of dollars for mineral companies, oil

companies in particular; TopeyeTM, an airborne laser mapping system that can collect 7,000 points per second and was

developed by Britain 3DLM, also boasts a bright prospect.

Drilling technologies are progressing rapidly towards six aspects: safer and deeper, underwater operation, high core

recovery rate, better orienting performance and lower costs. Changnian Corporation has made several breakthroughs in recent

years, and CAPP drills (processed by computer-aided products) designed by Sandvlk also boasts an optimistic outlook.

Mining

Satellite communication technologies and information processing technologies make costs of reserve representation

decline remarkably, and precision technologies minimize the senior engineering operation that is needed in prospecting and

resources geographical determination, which has lowered costs of resources exploration, minimized ground perturbation

related to prospecting and obviously improved the measurement of resources quantity and quality, thus greatly shortened the

resources exploration cycle. Currently, prospecting persons have used satellites to map the geological formation hidden

underground. Links among technology progresses, such as breakthroughs in computer technology, make new imaging

technology economically feasible. Each technological progress has enhanced efficiency of other technologies. For example,

3D integrated analysis and mapping technology that can be directly applied in the field or in the neighborhood may

substantially improve prospecting efficiency.

1.6.2 Development of mining technologies

Mining technologies have contributed a lot to sustainable development of the mineral industry. Senior simulation and

information technologies have been widely used currently. Robots and other artificial intelligence technologies help operators

improve output and reduce potential danger. Enhancement of mining efficiency lowers ore depletion rate, thus cutting down

ore dressing cost and minimizing waste discharge. Advanced simulation technologies improve resources assessment and

mining planning as well. Energy efficiency in production and processing process among global mineral sectors improves

fastest among all the industrial industries. Improved technological sensor control, online analysis, cutting-edge

communication technologies and robots controlled by orders contribute elements of information technologies that may reduce

employee risks, and enhance mining and energy efficiency and production efficiency. Application of those technologies to

transportation may improve mining equipment efficiency, make workers in safer environment and lower costs as well. Such

progresses as those made in global orientation, infrared remote sensing, man-machine interaction and obstacle-shielding

technologies enable the application of auto transportation equipment. Enhanced efficiency of mineral substances separation

or stripping reduces wastes and energy consumption needed in transportation; Representation ores respond to improved

ore-dressing technologies, thus cutting down energy consumption in processing; Progress in mining technologies reduces

depletion factors as well as necessary transportation and waste that needs processing;

Enhanced mining technologies control waste discharge effectively. Environmental goals have been completely

integrated into overall planning for mining production. Prospectors tried to conduct ore dressing and processing in mines or

in the neighborhood using in-situ technologies as much as possible, thus minimizing environmental impacts, localizing

management and reducing transportation. Prospectors are also sparing no effort to minimize solid, liquid and gas pollution

and waste discharge. Improved dust containment and control technologies make mining safer and environment better.

Modern mining technologies are developing towards the following aspects: massive exploration stressing economy of

scale, competitive and lower mining costs, safety first, being conducive to ecology and environment, reducing waste as much

as possible and attaching great importance to managerial techniques that encourages team work, etc. Information technology,

a great case in point, cuts down mining costs remarkably. According to the research done by UBS Warburg Group, electronic

technology may bring mining costs down by 5%, thus saving 5% of the total sales amount of mineral products and 15% of

the cash flow. E-business positively contributes to declining mining costs as well. In May 2000, 15 large multinational

mining corporations jointed hands to establish global electronic mining markets, where equipment from small parts to large

tramcars are traded. Even a very small innovation may substantially lower costs. For instance, GPS equipment navigation

system, which was developed by Lycra Company, has helped SanMignel Mines located south of Texas, U.S.A. lower costs

greatly.

Opencast mining technologies are progressing towards nine aspects: bigger size of mining areas, steeper slopes, deeper

pits, larger production machinery/technologies; mechanization/automatization, advanced conditioned monitoring and forecast,

remarkably smaller operation areas and greatly enhanced utilization ratio, extremely short time interval between stripping and

production; automatic sampling of drilling cuttings and remote control sampling after exploding, and wide application of

simulation in production planning.

Underground mining technologies are developing towards the following aspects in recent years: deeper and safer

China Business Guide

� 14 �

ventilation and heat treatment, lower cost and better atomization. For instance, “Intellimine”, a Modular mining system

installed by Falconbridge Ltd. in Craig Mines, which is located in Sudbury copper-nickel mineral area, Ontario, Canada,

enhances mining efficiency by 10-15%. Intellimine includes three parts: (1) Central computer system, which enables

advanced multi-processing exchange and real-time data access, and control mining operation as well; (2) On-site computer

system HllbS that enables wireless multi-frequency communication and operation; (3) Communication networks for

underground pits such as multi-frequency wireless system, infrared-based Modular token rings and micro-cell wireless

communication system. Recently, the narrow-vein mining technology, developed by CANMET under Canadian NRCna,

boasts a bright prospect.

1.6.3 Development of mineral processing and metallurgy

Breakthroughs in mineral processing and metallurgy may be exciting: Grades of available ores and corresponding

production costs fall remarkably; Low-grade, small and super-small ores that are hard to be processed have been used

rationally; Processing and metallurgy techniques are optimized and integrated, which helps identify and separate small and

super-small substances, improve efficiency of grinding materials and reduce adverse impacts of extraction upon environment;

New materials and compressing methods as well as material processing system obviously reduce energy consumption and

pollution during grinding processes; Airborne grinding apparatus enables direct contact of apparatus with raw materials,

lowering transportation cost and energy consumption as well; Wastes decrease and recycling rate of by-products increased

through reducing quantity of impurities entering ore-processing plants and changing ore-processing techniques; Waste flow

decreases through adopting underground water treatment and pollution treatment plans and through reducing waste quantity

based on waste water concentration.

SX-EW method has been widely used in copper industry. In 1968, SZ-EW was introduced in Bluebird Mines located in

Arizona, U.S.A. for the first time. Copper output produced using the method amounted to 6,000 tom/year. A decade later,

based on SX-EW method, copper output increased by 35 times to 200,000 tons/year in 1978, and increased by five times to

one million tons/year in 1988. Copper output jumped to two million tons in 1998, accounting for 17.5% of the world total

(1.15 million tons). New method may cut down workable grade of copper ore to 0.2-0.4% and to a minimum of 0.04%.

Recently, the application of SX-EW method to low-grade ores that are hard to be processed like uranium, nickel, cobalt, zinc,

tungsten and vanadium has accelerated remarkably.

The prospect of the new aluminum smelting technique is cheerful. In 2001, American Alcoa greatly improved the

traditional Hall—Heroult technique (which has remained basically unchanged during the past 100 years) by using an inert

anode instead of the traditional prebaked carbon anodes, thus cutting down aluminum production cost by 0.11-0.25

dollars/pound, and reducing cost of constructing “Greenland” Smelting Plant by 25%. Comalco Ltd. (purchased by RTZ),

Resnolds Ltd. (purchased by Alcoa) and Kalscr Ltd. are also trying a wettable anode to enhance smelting efficiency and

reduce production cost.

Great progresses have been made in bio-oxidation and bio-extraction technologies. BIOX, a bio-oxidation technique

developed by Gencor Ltd. in South Africa (merged with GoldFields) in 1980s, is especially suitable for treatment of gold ores

that are hard to smelt. Currently, the BIOX technique has been successfully used in Australian Wiluna gold mine, Brazilian

Sac Bento mine and Fairview mine in South Africa, and recently adopted in NIVOI mine in Uzbekistan and Obuasi mine,

which is owned by Ashanti, the biggest gold mine corporation in Ghana. BACOX bio-oxidation technique, which is

developed in 1990s jointly by Australian BacTech Ltd., a company listed in Canada, and Minteck, a research institute of

mineral technologies in South Africa, has been used in Australian Youanmi mine, remarkably improving recycling rate of

gold. BioPro technique, which is suitable for low-grade gold granules and developed by American Newmont Mining Corp.,

has improved recycling rate to 60% from the previous 20%. Progresses in bio-oxidation and bio-extraction enable

development of low-grade gold, copper, nickel and cobalt deposits. The workable grade of old ores, for instance, has

decreased to 0.7 g/ton and to a minimum of 0.257 g/ton.

Mining

1.6.4 Development of mineral utilization technologies

Development in mineral utilization technologies helps emergence of clean and recyclable advanced mineral products

that are easily transported and may be competed with other materials, which mainly include the following three aspects:

(1) Green mineral products. Even “black” coals may be turned into “green”. Advanced coal utilization technologies

make removal of most sulfur dioxide and over 90% of particles possible. Recent international conventions regarding

treatment of hazardous waste and metal products and long-distance transportation of gas pollution, as well as implementation

of national regulations regarding other environmental issues, imply that a global method will be adopted as to solving

environmental issues, and green mineral products constitute an effective way.

(2) Technologies that capable of enhancing mineral utilization rate. Low-cost, high-quality products with tiny

environmental impacts are heavily needed in markets. Market changes have a series of effects upon mineral products, driving

better utilization of natural resources in particular. Optimization of resources utilization, either improving secondary

recycling rate through enhancing resources efficiency, or reducing utilization strength of materials, has been a major driving

force to those developed countries. It is also the case with emerging countries, which are adopting cutting-edge techniques

and products as well.

Technological progresses create new markets for mineral products. For example, zinc consumption is climbing

following years of drops, which mainly lies in the increase of application zinc to metal corrosion-resisting layers. Zinc-based

fuel tank, a technique developed by Comlnco Ltd. recently, is another case in point. Without discharge, it can entirely

substitute traditional lead-acid batteries, thus shaping another emerging market for zinc. Due to high conductivity and

relatively low cost, copper wins an increasingly big market share. For instance, more copper is used in high performance cars

and high performance integrated circuit as well. Gold, due to its good corrosion resistance and high conductivity, rapidly

develops as a basic element of sensitive electronic components and other advanced products (air bag, satellites and scientific

apparatus).

1.7 Mining policies in major countries

As the base of social and economic development in all the countries worldwide, mineral resources are objects of some

super powers as well. With the development of world economical globalization and social scientific and technological

progress, world mineral resources and mining industry are adjusting and changing towards sustainable development. Many

countries have adjusted and amended their respective mineral resources policies in succession since 1990s to ensure the

sustainable development of mineral industry and sustainable supply of mineral products, thus further adapting to such new

trends as world economic globalization and sustainable development. Based on mineral resources and current mining

situation of some representative developing countries like Brazil, Peru, Chile, India and countries in economic transition like

Russia, Kazakstan and Mongolia, we have analyzed characteristics of mineral resources utilization in those countries as well

as the changes of their mining policies in recent years.

1.7.1 Developed countries

Developed countries like U.S.A., Canada, Australia, Japan and South Africa stress protection of domestic resources and

environment, control and development of global resources as well as recycling utilization of strategic reserve and mineral

resources.

Increasingly great importance is attached to protection and rational utilization of resources. In the U.S.A., mining

policies are adjusting with social and economic changes. Mining exploration is changing from “free entrance” policies that

simply encourage exploration to renting policies that encourage resources protection and control exploration speed, and

changing from emphasis on value of mineral resources in land to emphasis on overall value of land utilization. Russian Law

of Underground Resources specifically stipulates underground resources shall be utilized and protected rationally. According

China Business Guide

� 16 �

to such requirements, Russia has reformed and improved its national management departments, made and improved codes for

rational utilization of resources, implemented license system for resources protection, restricted or called off production

characterized by ineffective resources consumption, popularized resources-saving techniques as much as possible, and

restricted, suspended or terminated right of using underground resources regarding those disobey rational resources

utilization and protection policies.

Rigid environmental protection policies have been adopted. Since 1970s, such developed countries as U.S.A., U.K,

Germany and Japan have made a series of laws and regulations protecting environment, which have imposed rigid

restrictions on prospecting and exploration of mineral resources. All or almost all of the mining activities are cancelled for the

sake of environmental protection in some places. The sustainable development of environment plays an overwhelmingly

important role in the society, and no mining activities that are conducted at the cost of environment are allowed.

Global mineral resources are taken into account. Mineral resources policies characterized by globalization constitute an

important feature of current mineral resources policies of developed countries represented by the U.S.A. Some American and

Britain MNCs control global resources markets. Alcoa, for instance, has grown into the world’s largest nonferrous metal

industrial enterprise after years of global merging and expanding, with output of manganese oxide and aluminum electrode as

well as aluminum material processing capacity ranking the first in the world, and boasting annual sales of more than US$ 20

billion. Large-sized MNCs and oil companies have been based on global oil and gas resources all along. Shell, for instance,

conducts energy prospecting and exploration in 45 countries worldwide, and conducts oil and gas production in 28 countries;

Exxon carries out energy prospecting and production in over 30 countries; American Mobil involves in 34 countries in five

continents and Chevron involves in more than 20 countries.

Strategic resources reserve policies are adopted. Mineral product reserve systems are commonly adopted in developed

countries. Reserves in the U.S.A. number 80 sub-categories under 25 categories. The reserve object is to supply resources

domestically needed in three months in time of emergency. In France, copper, lead & zinc, nickel, cobalt, chrome, tungsten,

molybdenum, zirconium and hydrargyrum reserves are sufficient to meet its need in two months, and the volume is calculated

on the basis of its average consumption per month; In Germany, chrome, manganese, vanadium, cobalt and blue asbestos

reserves are equivalent to its domestic consumption volume in one year, and in Japan, nickel, chrome, tungsten, molybdenum,

cobalt, manganese and vanadium reserves are as much as the consumption in 60 days. Besides these categories, oil reserve

systems are also established in the said countries. It is noteworthy that in addition to reserve system for mineral products,

strategic base reserve system for mineral resources are in place in the U.S.A.

Recycling utilization of resources has become one important aspect of mineral resources policies in developed countries.

Recycling has extended to everything that can be recycled besides waste iron & steel and waste metal. A series of laws and

regulations have been promulgated in many countries to promote recycling utilization of resources. For instance, in 2001,

“Law of Designed Home Appliances” was issued in Japan. Based on the principle that responsibility of producers shall

extend further and consumers shall pay for such extra service, the law stipulates that manufacturers shall manage to improve

the recycling rate of refrigerators and washing machines to 50%, that of televisions to 55% and air-conditioners to 60%;

Retailers shall be responsible for recycling and transportation of electronic appliances, and consumers shall pay recycling tax

correspondingly. Such laws and regulations not only enable recycling of resources, but also alleviate environmental pressure.

Such countries as Canada and Australia are those oriented by mineral resources export, encouraging export of mineral

products and getting the most out of it constitute an important aspect of the mineral resources policies of those countries.

Therefore, tariffs of mineral products and metal products are lowered as much as possible in those countries to remove

obstacles that are not conducive to integration of domestic mining industry with international markets. They are also trying to

take advantage of current systems for trade compensation and dispute settlement to remove or amend unreasonable standards

discouraging trade, and sparing no efforts to expand North America Free Trade Area, establish framework for multi-lateral

trade rules, and achieve agreements aiming at protect foreign investment through avoiding dual taxation. By adopting those

measures, they are expecting more exports and further development of domestic economy.

These mineral powers have been fully aware of the impact of mining activities on human health and ecological

environment. The most important thing in mining policies is to well protect mines and make mining exploration in harmony

with environmental protection. Therefore, many laws and regulations regarding mining environmental protection have been

� 17 �

Mining

issued in recent years in Canada and Australia, and many measures have been adopted as well to alleviate adverse impact of

mining exploration on ecological environment.

1.7.2 Developing countries

As for such developing countries as Brazil, Chile, Peru and India as well as countries in economic transition like Russia,

Kazakhstan and Mongolia, the most pressing issue is to attract more foreign investment and domestic private capital in

mineral prospecting and exploration to revive domestic mining industry. Mining policies that are not suitable for the new

trend therefore have been modified or adjusted in those countries since 1990s.

For instance, Brazilian government has adopted three measures to change the slow development of its mining sector,

which is a crucial sector of Brazil: (1) adjusting mineral laws and canceling restrictions on foreign equity mentioned in

mineral projects; (2) encouraging foreign investment in Brazilian mining sector; and (3) encouraging individual mining and

privatization of mining organizations. In 1995, an amendment to the constitution was passed in Brazil Congress, allowing

entrance of private departments into such fields as mining, oil prospecting and sales of natural gas. The change in policy

ended the 40-year monopoly of Brazilian government on oil and gas sectors. Restrictions on foreign investment in mining

sector was cancelled as well in August 1995, allowing foreign companies to explore Brazilian mineral resources in various

forms like joint ventures, cooperative or wholly foreign-owned enterprises, and stipulating that foreign investors may be

registered by law as Brazilian legal person that enjoy the same treatment as that enjoyed by Brazilian companies in respect of

laws and taxation. The franchise law passed in 1995 created more chances for Brazilian private sectors so as to enhance

Brazil’s economic competitiveness internationally and create a good environment for domestic and foreign investment.

Peruvian government has once again implemented policies promoting mining development by attracting foreign

investment since 1980s. By the end of 1980s, foreign investment in Peru’s mining sector has accounted for over 50% of the

total foreign investment in Peru. In 1992, the government promulgated a new mining law and issued new regulations

regarding mining cadastral administration in 1996. The new laws made by Peruvian government were regarded as the most

exciting ones in South America, ensuring quicker acquisition of mineral right, and specifying that mineral right is a

transferable property right, and the person owning the mineral right may freely arrange it as to investment amount and date,

and determine investment project to his discretion. Peruvian government also popularizes privatization of mineral

organizations. Indian government promulgated new national mining policies in 1993, and twice (in 1994 and 1999) amended

its Law of Mines and Mining Administration made in 1957. India’s new mining policies give highlights to several aspects as

follows: (1) The 13 mineral resources including iron ores, manganese ores, chromites, sulfur, gold, diamond, copper, lead &

zinc, molybdenum, tungsten, nickel and platinum group metal that were previously exclusive to state-owned organizations

are open to private ones; (2) Encouraging entrance of foreign investment into Indian mining companies; (3) Preparing to

attract foreign technologies, and allowing foreign companies to participate in prospecting of high-value and rare mineral

resources. With the amendment to the Law of Mines and Mining Administration, terms of the prospecting license and mining

license have been extended, thus expanding rights of individual states, which are authorized by Indian central government.

Categories of mineral resources allowed to be explored reduced to 11. Those holding prospecting licenses have the

priority right to acquire exploration licenses, and those holding exploration licenses have the priority right to acquire mining

licenses. Land rented for mining may be transferred.

Mongolian government revised its Law of Mining in 1997 to improve mining investment environment, thus further

attracting foreign investors with preferential laws and regulations. Great adjustments have been included in the new mining

law compared with the law promulgated in 1994, including: prospecting persons holding prospecting license may conduct

prospecting activities of various kinds in specific areas, and have the rights to explore any mineral deposits that are found in

the area; The prospecting license may be transferred as an asset of the holder, and all royalties of mineral products deceased

to 2.5% from 12.5%; The term of validity and term of extending of mining licenses were extended. The new mining law

simplified approval procedures, shortened the approval period for rights of mining, and provided that the approval decision

regarding prospecting licenses shall be made within ten days from the application, and the decision regarding mining licenses

shall be made within 20 days from the application. The amended Law of Mining also stipulated that all investors with various

� 18 �

nationalities shall be treated equally and foreign investors may get 100% of ownership. Proceeds and dividends may be freely

sent abroad.

Privatization process in Kazakstan has remarkably accelerated since 1993. The government promulgated a new Law of

Underground Resources and Utilization of Underground Resources in 1999 to substitute the old one issued in 1996. The new

law mainly included three amendments: (1) Changing the dual track system concerning authorizing license of using

underground resources and signing contracts to single track system providing the domination of signing contracts with

Kazakstan Investment Committee, which means mineral prospecting and exploration may be conducted only based on the

contracts inked between investors and Kazakstan Investment Committee; (2) Detailed clauses and directions were included as

to transfer of mineral rights; (3) Mineral rights may be mortgaged without prior consent from Kazakstan Investment

Committee, but shall be registered in Kazakstan Investment Committee.

Adjustment of mineral policies and amendment to laws of foreign investment in these countries have created good

environment for development of the mining industry, and positive results have been achieved as well.

1.7.3 Policies encouraging enterprises to explore foreign mineral resources

Prospecting and utilization of foreign mineral resources have been greatly supported in major countries worldwide. Such

supports include legal and information services, and especially fiscal, tax and financial services. As for those countries that

heavily lack in mineral resources but face great domestic demand such as Japan, France, Germany, U.K. and South Korea

(including U.S.A. to some degree), prospecting and utilization of mineral resources shall be conducted on the basis of

ensuring safe supply of domestic mineral resources and increasing domestic control of global mineral resources. Developed

countries like Canada and Australia that are abundant in resources, however, positively participate in global mining business

mainly for development and flourish of domestic mineral economy and enhancement of competitiveness internationally.

Financial support

One major financial measure regarding prospecting and utilization of foreign mineral resources in major countries

worldwide is to establish overseas risk prospecting fund, and give direct subsidies to enterprises or organizations that conduct

multinational mineral business according to different proportions. Japan, Germany, South Korea, France and U.K are typical

countries adopting such measures. Funds are often included in national fiscal budgets in the said countries. The fund may

come from many sources, which lies on actual situation of each country. Establishment of fund is usually guaranteed by laws.

For instance, the fund for overseas mineral resources exploration in South Korea was established in May 1978 based on the

Law of Overseas Resources Exploration, and the fund for overseas risk prospecting in Japan was established according to the

Law of MMAJ and relevant laws and regulations. Relevant laws and regulations usually provide funding ways, operation

mechanism, operation and management, supplement to losses, fund objects, granting conditions, procedures, management

and recycling, as well as proportions and ways of subsidies. Sizes of overseas risk prospecting funds vary with different

countries. Subsidy objects of funds include MNCs and organizations established by law. In Germany， the subsidy object of

the overseas risk-prospecting fund established for oil in 1969-1989 is DeMinex Oil Group, which is organized by eight

Germany oil companies; And subsidies of the overseas risk-prospecting fund established for solid mineral resources during

1971-1990 go to prospecting or mining companies registered in Germany (410 projects have been funded, including dozens

of successful ones covering 31 categories of mineral resources). In Japan and South Korea, generally speaking, the subsidies

in the primary stage involving the highest risk go to organizations that are established by law and conduct overseas

prospecting and exploration (MMAJ and Japanese National Oil Corporation in Japan and Korea Resources Corporation in

South Korea). In prospecting stage, the object swifts to mines enterprises at home. The subsidies in France go to BRGM,

equaling direct investment. (French-based BRGM presently has branches/subsidiaries directly conduct mineral prospecting

and exploration in Peru, Guinea, New Guinea, Burkina Faso, Cote Divoire, Gabon and Senegal.)

Tax support

One major financial measure regarding prospecting and utilization of foreign mineral resources in major countries

worldwide is to give mineral companies preferential taxes regarding prospecting expenses involved in overseas investment.

There are three major ways:

� 19 �

Mining

1. The system for mineral resources depletion represented by the U.S.A. The depletion allowance, as an allowance form

typical of mineral resources industry, was first adopted in the U.S.A. in 1913. The said “depletion” means consumption or

decrease of natural resources caused by exploration. In the depletion allowance system, part of the net profit in each taxable

year is deducted and given to owners of oilfields/mines or operators to help them search for new mineral resources that can

substitute those in depletion. As a deduction, the allowance effectively cut down tax levied on mining enterprises. There are

two forms of allowances. One is cost completion allowance, a fixed nominal allowance given based on ores per ton explored,

and the other is percentage depletion allowance, which allows deduction of a certain percentage of revenues to make up for

depletion of resources, that is to say, mining enterprises report less revenues (a fixed percent of revenues) when reporting

revenues. In the U.S.A., a 14% depletion allowance is levied on all the mineral prospecting companies involving in overseas

operation. (Actually, depletion allowance is implemented for domestic prospecting and exploration activities in the U.S.A,

and the allowance ratio vary between 5-22% based on categories of mineral resources. According to World Watch Institute,

adoption of American depletion allowance system for mineral resources in the past decade cut down tax levied on mining

industry by more than US$ 5 billion less.)

2. Cost system for overseas prospecting expenses represented by Canada. Canada government encourages mining

enterprises to make use of foreign funds through preferential tax. Funds used for overseas mineral prospecting may be

deducted from income tax of Canadian companies. Relevant Canadian laws regarding income tax include specific clauses

providing deduction of overseas prospecting investment. Deduction rate for the first year is 30%, and year-on-year

amortization is effected based on the declining balance method. Investment made in overseas prospecting and exploration

reduces tax paid to Canadian federal government and provincial governments. Meanwhile, there are special provisions

regulating enterprises’ revenues from overseas economic activities.

3. Japan and South Korea, which are heavily short of resources, provide more preferential tax support to overseas risk

prospecting activities by using lengths of the above two systems for reference. Three major measures are implemented in

Japan: (1) Overseas prospecting provision system, allowing legal persons conducting mining activities overseas use 50% of

the mining revenues as public reserve funds, which are tax-free and may be used up within three years. The system has been

implemented since 1975.(2) Special deduction system for new overseas deposit prospecting expenses, which follows the

special exemption system for new domestic prospecting expenses. According to the system, loss expenses may be calculated

based on the maximum expenses of the following three ones: expense for new deposit prospecting and depreciation expense

for prospecting equipment, amount of prospecting provision fund left after using, and amount got in the period. The system

has been implemented since 1965. (3) Provision system for loss in overseas investment provides the limit of public reserve

fund as follows: 30% for legal persons of resources exploration projects and legal persons of resources exploration

investment, 100% for legal persons of resources prospecting projects and legal persons of resources prospecting investment.

The public reserve fund, after a five-year fixed period, may be used up within five years (equal amount used in each year).

The term of application of the system extended to March 31, 2002.

Four major measures are adopted in South Korea: (1) Provision system for loss in overseas investment, which is

intended to deal with loss in overseas investment. According to the system, a maximum of 20% of fund in overseas

investment is set aside as the loss provision that is tax-free. In case that no loss occurs in the next three years following the

accumulation of provision, the provision will be calculated as proceeds in the next four years. (2) Overseas taxable income

exemption system, which is intended to avoid dual taxation. Companies that conduct overseas investment may not pay

domestic corporate tax based on overseas income if they pay corporate tax to foreign governments. (3) Foreign tax system is

intended to boost overseas investment. Even if income tax and corporate tax are exempted based on the agreement made to

avoid dual taxation, the exempted part is regarded as tax paid overseas and free from domestic tax. (4) Dividends got from

investment in overseas resources are tax free, which is intended to boost overseas investment. Even if companies are

exempted from dividend tax in host countries, they are regarded to have paid tax overseas and exempted from tax

domestically.

Financial support

One major financial measure regarding prospecting and utilization of foreign mineral resources in major countries

worldwide is to grant preferential and stable long-term loans. Loan modes vary from special funds and special institution to

China Business Guide

� 20 �

national policy banks established for loan granting. Besides loans, loan guarantees are also provided in many countries to

render insurance for overseas investment. In Japan, four kinds of loans are available for overseas mineral prospecting,

including general loans, designated loans, special loans and investment. (1) General loans, which are designed to fund

enterprises that conduct resources exploration in developed industrial countries. The loan proportion is below 70% in

principle and reaches 80% in special cases. And the loan interest is 2.85% (which is the interest on February 1, 1999, and it is

the same in following contents). The term of loan lasts no more than 15 years and loans may be repaid five years after the

loan is granted. (2) Designated loans, which are designed to fund enterprises conducting mineral exploration worldwide. The

loan proportion is below 50% in principle and reaches 70% in special cases. And the loan interest is 2.85%. The term of loan

last no more than 15 years and loans may be repaid five years after the loan is granted. (3) Special loans, which are designed

to fund enterprises conducting uranium exploration. The loan proportion is below 50% in principle and reaches 70% in

special cases. And the loan interest is 2.85%. The term of loan last no more than 18 years and loans may be repaid eight years

after the loan is granted. One kind of loan that may be repaid when resources exploration turns out successful is also available,

with loan proportion between 60%-70%. (4) Investment, the proportion of which is below 50% in principle and reaches 80%

in special cases. The said loans are managed by MMAJ. In addition, Overseas Economic Cooperation Fund (OECF) also

provides loans to enterprises conducting overseas mineral exploration. The fund generally helps those conducting mineral

exploration in developing countries. The loan proportion is 70% in principle, and term of loan lasts no more than eight years

and loans may be repaid five years after the loan is granted. Japanese government also provide debt guarantee to enterprises

conducting normal mining activities through MMAJ, and the guaranteed capital is 50%-80% of the total with a 0.4%

guarantee fee. Furthermore, Export-Import Bank of Japan also renders loans to mining enterprises at the mining stage. The

loan proportion is below 70%, and the term of payment is 5-10 years.

In South Korea, four kinds of loans are available for overseas mineral prospecting, including fund loans of various kinds,

overseas investment fund loans (loans granted by Export & Import Bank of Korea and Industrial Bank of Korea), foreign

economic cooperation loans and foreign exchange loans of overseas investment fund. (1) Fund loans, which are intended to

alleviate capital risk of investors conducting overseas resources exploration and managed by Korea Resources Corporation.

Supporting capital includes: capital that secures mining rights, investigation capital, exploration capital and operation capital.

The standard currencies are foreign currencies. The loan proportion is below 80% with an annual interest of 5%. The

maximum term of loan is 15 years (the loan may be repaid five years after the loan is granted). (2) Overseas investment fund

loans, which are intended to secure main materials and resources needed in a country and managed by Export-Import Bank of

Korea. Supporting capital includes investment made by local corporations and project fund. The loan proportion is 60%-80%

with an annual interest of 9% (8% for SMEs). The maximum term of loan is ten years (the loan may be repaid three years

after the loan is granted). (3) Foreign economic cooperation fund loans, which are intended to boost investment in mineral

resources exploration in developed countries involving certain risk and small proceeds and managed by Export & Import

Bank of Korea. The loan proportion is below 80% with an annual interest of 5%-6%. The maximum term of loan is 15 years

(the loan may be repaid five years after the loan is granted). (4) Overseas investment fund loans and foreign exchange loans

of overseas investment fund, which are managed by Industrial Bank of Korea and Bank of Foreign Currency Exchange

respectively. Respective loan proportions are 50%-70% and 40%-60% with an annual interest of 9% (8% for SMEs) and 1%

higher than London Inter-bank Offered Rate. Terms of payment are eight years and ten years respectively (the loans may be

repaid three years after the loans are granted.

Overseas mining investment is also provided with insurance in such countries as Japan, U.K., Canada, France, Germany,

U.S.A. and South Korea. British overseas investment guarantee (a system managed by Export Credit Guarantee Department),

for instance, provides insurance applied to conditions including confiscated property, devastating wars and remittance

restrictions. The insurance remains valid in 15 years, covering over 90% of risks. It is applied to security investment and loan

investment, with a premium between 0.7%-1% of the total investment. Guarantee is provided in Germany to overseas

exploration companies, so is the guarantee of minimum investment recycling rate, which includes credit guarantee,

investment guarantee and insurance for political risks involving in overseas prospecting. In Japan, debt guarantee is offered to

enterprises conducting overseas mining, with a credit line of 50%-80% and a guarantee fee of 0.4%. In South Korea, overseas

investment insurance is offered by Export & Import Bank of Korea. According to the insurance system, the insured amount is

90% and compensation limit is 90% as well.

1.8 World mining market

1.8.1 Iron & steel market drives continuous increase in prices of black metal ores

Iron & steel output worldwide in 2005 amounted to 1.132 billion tons, up 6.1% than the previous year. Countries

(regions) with steel output reaching over two millions tons total 41, with combines output accounting for 97.95% of the

world total. China has ranked the first in the world for ten consecutive years in terms of its steel output, which represents

31.1% of the world total from 15.2% in 2000 and is even greater than the combined output of the second, third and fourth

largest producers. In 2005, steel output in China exceeded 300 million tons, a 24.6% increase over the previous year. World

steel output in the first five years of the 21st century increased by 284.8 million tons, with China representing 78.6% of the

increment. Japan ranked the second in the world in terms of its steel output, which was 112.5 million tons in 2005. The U.S.A.

took the third place with an output of 93.9 million tons in 2005 (a 5.8% decrease over the previous year). As for steel output

by continents, Asia remains as the most important region for steel output, with a year-on-year increase of 149% to 566

million tons in 2005. North America, South America and Eu-15 respectively posted an output of 127 million tons, 45.3

million tons and 164 million tons, with a respective decrease of 5.3%, 1.2% and 2.5%. Steel output in Africa reached 17.41

million tons, up 5.7% year on year, and output in Oceania amounted to 8.61 million tons, up 3.7% over the previous year.

As a result of the accelerated capacity expanding of iron ore producers driven by robust demand for raw materials, world

iron ore output in 2005 reached 1.274 billion tons, up 11.4% over the previous year. Despite the increase, iron ores are in

short supply in world market, making major iron ore producers once again increase iron ore price in the price negotiation in

2005. China, as a power in iron ore trade, directly participated in 2006 iron ore price negotiation, however, it has to accept the

agreement allowing a 19% increase in price due to its disadvantage position in negotiations with world major iron ore

suppliers that occupy 70% of global iron ore trade by sea (Global top ten steel companies represent 25% of the world total)).

The long-term contract price, following a 19% increase, has almost been equal to spot price of iron ore.

World iron ore trade is presently controlled by several big mining corporations, including CVRD, Rio Tinto and BHP

Billiton, which control 70% of global iron ore supply. China has gradually substituted Japan and Western European countries

as world major importer of iron ores. Despite that China boasts a super large iron ore industry, it has to import a huge amount

of iron ores to satisfy its increasingly growing demand that is hard to be met by its domestic output, thus causing continuous

remarkable increase in iron ore import in China. In 2005, China saw a continuous big rise in its iron ore import, which

amounted to 2.752605 billion tons and rose by 11.5%. China accounted for 43% of world iron ore trade by sea in terms of its

import, and took up the major part of increment in global iron ore trade in 2005. As the largest iron & steel producer and

consumer in the world, China is also the largest iron ore importer with foreign-trade dependence of iron ore exceeding 50%

and having great impact on world iron ore trade.

World production, consumption and price of ferro alloys in 2005 changed a lot compared with those in 2004. Global

stainless steel market was extremely weak in 2005. Rapid growth in iron & steel industry in 2004 boosts demand for stainless

steel. Facing robust market demand, producers expanded capacity in succession, causing substantial rise in output in 2004.

However, due to rocketing cost of raw materials for stainless steel and oversupply in market that causes jumping price in

2005, stainless steel producers and traders had to alleviate pressure resulting from cost increase by cutting down storage

remarkably. Because of weak demand, many stainless steel producers had compressed capacity substantially since the third

quarter, resulting in a 8.6% decrease year on year. Drop in world stainless steel output imposes different impact upon

production and consumption of such alloys as chrome, nickel and vanadium. According to statistics in World Metal

Statistics-Yearbook 2006, world nickel consumption in 2005 totaled 1.3195 million tons, up 5.1% than 2004. Nickel price

fluctuated little around high prices in 2005, reached a record high since 1980: the spot price averaged US$ 14738/ton, and

forward price was US$ 14533/ton. In 2005, output of high carbon ferrochrome totaled 5.967 million tons and consumption

totaled 5.951 million tons. Supply (output + storage change) reached 6.043 million tons and oversupply was 92,000 tons. As a

China Business Guide

� 22 �

result, ferrochrome price in international market climbed in the first half of the year 2005 and jumped in the second half of

the year. The main reason behind the price increase in the first half of the year is the rising demand for stainless steel and

short supply of ferrochrome. Ferro-Alloy of Mn-series market had been in its downturn period both at home and abroad in

the first three quarters of 2005, causing significant drop in prices. At the end of 2005, high carbon ferrochrome produced in

China sold at US$ 650/ton in Japan market, down 38% compared with US$ 1,050/ton at the beginning of the year.

Enterprises producing Ferro-Alloy of Mn-series experienced descending profits and increasing losses, resulting in shifting to

ferrochrome production in succession. Refined cobalt output worldwide totaled 53,689 tons in 2005, and China accounted for

25% of the total. World cobalt market was in short supply facing robust demand reaching about 54,000 tons, thus causing

rising cobalt price, which once rose to US$ 30/pound. According to CRU’s latest report concerning world molybdenum

market, the total consumption was estimated at 176132.88 tons in 2005, up 0.6% over the previous year. Demand for tungsten

increased by over 10% in 2005, overtaking its supply and causing rocketing prices, which hit a record high.

1.8.2 Demand drives continuous increase in prices of major nonferrous metals in international market

According to World Metal Statistics, world output of six kinds of metals totaled 67.7467 million tons in 2005, up 4.6%

than 2004. Lead output grew by 8.9%, the greatest margin among the said six metals; Aluminum and copper outputs

increased by 6.6% and 5.1% respectively, and nickel and tin outputs rose by 4.5% and 2.1% respectively. The combined

consumption of the above six nonferrous metals totaled 68.0259 million tons, up 4.9% over the previous year. Lead and

aluminum outputs rose fastest by 68% and 5.8% respectively. Copper, lead, zinc and nickel are in short supply, and aluminum

is somewhat oversupplied.

With continuous growth of world economy in 2005, countries including China, India and Russia posted rapid economic

development. Demand for nonferrous metals increased remarkably, meanwhile, storage of some metals declined, thus

resulting in short supply of many nonferrous metals and rising prices. General prices of nonferrous metals hit a record high

for the past decade. As for the six major nonferrous metals, copper and lead were priced at US$ 3684/ton and US$ 976/ton,

reaching a record high for the past 17 years and respectively increasing by 28.5% and 9.9% over the previous year;

Aluminum and zinc were priced at US$ 1898/tonand US$1382/ton, hitting a record high for the past ten and eight years

respectively, and up 10.5% and 31.9% year on year respectively; Nickel was priced at US$ 14733/ton that reached a record

high for the past 15 years; The price of tin, however, fell by 13.4% in 2005 following a record high for the past 15 years

which was hit in 2004. Driven by the high prices, output and consumption of world major nonferrous metals grew at different

margins, and relation between supply and demand further improved. Other markets of nonferrous metals including antimony

and selenium were as flourish as copper, aluminum, lead and zinc markets, developed remarkably. Some enterprises profited

from other accompanying nonferrous metals rather than from major nonferrous metals with huge output and high price.

According to World Metal Statistics, primary aluminum consumption worldwide reached 31.62 million tons in 2005,

increased by 7.1% (1.73 million tons) year on year. China contributed about 62% (1.08 million tons) to the increment, while

consumption in western countries only increased by 540,000 tons. Therefore, primary aluminum consumption was mainly

driven by China in 2005. It was estimated that the gap between demand and supply in the primary aluminum market was

around 200,000 tons in 2005. As a result, aluminum price in international market continued to rise in 2005 based on the

substantial increase in 2004. The average price of three-month aluminum futures in London Metal Exchange (LME)

exceeded US$ 2,000/ton in November, reaching US$ 2,236/ton at the end of 2005.

Notes: Russian Aluminum, Siberian-Urals Aluminum Company and Glencore International have merged as United

Company Rusal; ALCOA holds a 60% stake in AWAC. According to the performance report announced by ALCOA in 2006,

alumina produced totaled 15.128 million tons. Data from CRU may be different because some outputs haven’t been

calculated repeatedly.

Refined copper output reached 16.665 million tons in 2005, up 5.9% than 2004, and the consumption was 16.817

million tons, up 2.8% year on year. A gap of 200,000 tons existed between demand and supply. Whereas world major copper

consumers including U.S.A., Japan, Germany, South Korea, Italy and Mexico saw declining consumption to different extents,

China posted robust growth in copper consumption. Asia accounted for almost half of the global copper consumption among

all the major consumption regions. Copper consumption grew by 2.7% in China but by 0.3% in Europe, for weak

construction sector and strong Euros in Western Europe didn’t drive copper consumption, while common growth in Eastern

Europe counteracted such decrease. In America, copper consumption declined by 4.7% resulted from decrease in U.S.A. As

for the whole world, China served as the major driving force for copper consumption. Short supply of copper in international

market led to substantial increase in copper price. In 2005, spot price of copper averaged US$ 3,684/ton, up 28.5% year on

year. Continuous tension in spot copper supply and decline in exchange storage for the past decade were regarded as the

major reasons besides capital that pushed for the big rise in copper price.

World refined copper output increased remarkably in 2005, reaching 7.31 million tons in the whole year and rising by

8.8% year on year. China posted a lead output of 2.38 million tons, up 31.3% over the previous year. China has boasted

year-on-year increases since 2003 when it overtook U.S.A. as the world’s No.1 producer of refined lead, and accounted for an

increasing part (31% in 2005) of the world total refined lead output. China has become the world’s refined lead melting

center. Meanwhile, China overtook U.S.A. as the world’s largest refined lead consumer with a consumption amount of 1.9397

million tons in 2005, contributing a lot to world consumption, which totaled 7.5298 million tons in 2005, up 6.8% over the

previous year. Increment in world refined lead consumption was almost attributed to China, which posted an increase of

540,000 tons. China accounted for 25.8% of the world total in terms of refined lead consumption in 2005. As a power of

refined lead production and consumption, China directly affects international market through its refined lead export, which

totaled 455,000 tons in 2005 and approximately represented 26.4% of the world total. However, the limited refined lead

export is incapable of alleviating the tension of short supply in international market. Spot lead in LME was priced at US$

976/ton on average in 2005, up 9.9% than 2004, and three-month future lead was priced at US$ 941/ton, increasing by 10.7%

year on year.

World zinc output amounted to 10.2152 million tons, up 1.1% over the previous year. zinc output in western countries

declined by 0.4%, reaching 6.6203 million tons. World zinc consumption was 10.39 million tons, up 2.6% than 2004. Zinc

consumption in western countries fell by 1.2% year on year, reaching 6.9947 million tons and caused by weak galvanized

zinc market. Increase in world zinc consumption is attributed to big rise in China and India markets. Zinc in international

market is in short supply, with a gap of around 200,000 tons in 2005. Spot zinc in LME was priced at US$ 1382/ton, up

31.9% over the previous year; And three-month future zinc was priced at US$ 1393/ton, up 30.9% year on year. Rise in zinc

prices was attributed to huge import of zinc by China and continuous decrease in commercial storage.

World tin market was basically balanced in terms of relation between demand and supply (a little oversupplied), with a

small rise in output and consumption. Tin was the only nonferrous metal with dropping prices in LME in 2005. Spot tin was

priced at US$ 7370/ton, down 13.4% than 2004. Tin price rose by over 70% in 2004, driving production greatly. Global tin

output has increased remarkably since the second half of the year 2004, and output in Indonesia rose by the biggest margin.

Emerging small-sized crude tin melting plants sprang up like mushrooms, with output reaching around 25,000 tons in 2004

and over 45,000 tons in 2005. Crude tin produced by those plants exported heavily to Thailand, Malaysia and China. World

China Business Guide

� 24 �

tin output amounted to 353,400 tons in 2005, up 2.1% year on year. Increment mainly came from Asia countries including

Indonesia, China, Thailand and Malaysia. Most of raw materials used in Thailand and Malaysia were from Indonesia, so the

rising output was mainly related to climbing output of crude tin in Indonesia. China also imported 13,000 tons of crude tin

from Indonesia as raw materials. Therefore, Indonesia was the source for oversupply in international market, and effective

control of production in Indonesia serves as the only way to balance tin market.

Continuous declining in gold output in South Africa, the world’s largest gold producer, is counted as the major factor

contributing to rising gold price. Following a 13.1% decrease in 2005, gold output in South Africa once again fell by 278 tons

in 2006, which is the smallest output since 1922. The output is expected to decline in 2007. At present, gold in South Africa

mainly comes from deep mines, some of which are over two miles (3.2 km) in depth. Major gold producers include

AngloGold Ashanti, Gold Fields and Harmony Gold. With extending of roadways, gold mining cost climbs continuously,

making big gold mining corporations find it hard to make profit. In May 2005, gold price in international market rose to US$

730/ounce, hitting a record high for the past 26 years and rising by 41%. Despite the big decrease afterwards, the final closing

price was US$ 635/ounce in 2006, a 23% increase compared with US$ 517/ounce in 2005.

1.8.3 Multinationals dominate world nonferrous metal industry by controlling metal resources

Resources are indispensable to the development of world economy. Consumption of primary resources will keep

increasing in the long run in developing countries, where industrialization and modernization are highlighted. Countries

worldwide attach great importance to nonferrous metals, which are important raw materials. Thus, control and occupancy of

mineral resources have become one of the focuses in current nonferrous metal industry.

Due to long-term exploration of nonferrous metals, some developed countries either face resources exhaustion or

climbing exploration cost, which causes loss of economic value. In order to have the upper hand in the development of

nonferrous metal industry, multinationals, relying on their capital strength and technological advantages, take the lead to

invest in and transfer their production capacity to countries and regions with abundant resources, low production cost and

stable political environment, thus controlling resources and occupying favorable positions. Alcoa and Alcan Inc. as the two

aluminum corporations with most powerful strength in the world, have conducted a series of foreign resources exploration

projects since 1980s, achieving great success in terms of Australian aluminum exploration. Australia, with a total of six

alumina plants and a combined output of 16 million tons, boasts the largest alumina production scale and the lowest cost in

the world. Of the said plants, four are respectively controlled by Alcoa and Alcan. Inc., one plant is largely held by Alcan. Inc.

and the other one is controlled by other multinational aluminum corporations.

Multinational corporations aim to control and occupy nonferrous metals with advantages in international market, thus

taking up the favorable position in world nonferrous metal industry. By far, the most advantageous mineral resources

including copper, aluminum and lead & zinc have been occupied by multinationals.

Facing stimulus of market demand and impact of M & A, world multinationals further focus on potential regions with

nonferrous metal resources that are not so important as the major ones and accelerated their paces of occupying and exploring

nonferrous metals worldwide in a bid to take up and reinforce their favorable positions in the new round of resources control.

1.8.4 Production transferred to low-cost regions

Nonferrous metal industry is a resource-intensive and energy-intensive industry with advantageous mineral minerals and

low-cost energy, determining efficiency and competitiveness to a large extent. To cut down production cost and enhance

competitiveness as well as market control and influence, world major nonferrous metal enterprises, multinationals in

particular, spare no effort to implement globalization of resource allocation, which greatly pushes internationalization of

nonferrous metal industry. Governments worldwide have adopted measure boosting foreign investment and utilization of

domestic mineral resources in order to promote economic development, resulting in transfer of production of nonferrous

metals as raw materials to low-cost regions abundant in resources.

Australia and other countries and regions with abundant aluminum resources and low-cost power supply have witnessed

� 25 �

Mining

a rapid development in aluminum sector in the past two decades, growing as the most important alumina and electrolytic

aluminum producers in the world. In 2005, Australia boasted an alumina output of 17.92 million tons, which was 2.5 times of

that in 1980 and accounted for 28% of world total from 2.2% in 1980. Meanwhile, alumina and electrolytic aluminum

outputs in developed countries like U.S.A. showed a declining trend. Electrolytic aluminum output was 2.48 million tons,

representing only 53% of that in 1980 and accounted for 7.8% of the world total from 29% in 1980.

International lead & zinc market have fluctuated in recent years with growing fierce competition. Furthermore, with

increasingly rigid environmental protection restrictions, developed countries or regions in Europe and America have seen a

sharp rise in cost of lead & zinc production and a shrinking scale. Refined lead melting capacity reaching 190,000 tons was

closed permanently during 2000-2004, and a total of 400,000 tons of lead melting capacity and 600,000 tons of zinc melting

capacity was shut down in Europe. While in such developing countries as China, Kazakhstan and India saw a rapid

development of lead & zinc production, and the increment has made up for the reduced output in European and American

countries, contributing to the moderate growth worldwide. During 1996-2004, refined lead output have decreased by 0.9%

annually in U.S.A., and zinc output have been basically stable; Lead output in Japan declined by 0.4% and zinc output

increased by 0.4% annually; Refined lead output in France fell by 12.4% and zinc output dropped by 2.7% annually; Lead

output grew by 0.4% and zinc output fell by 3.6% in Italy year on year. Meanwhile. China posted a respective lead output and

zinc output growth of 12.4% and 9.8%; South Korea boasted a respective increase of 9.8% and 9.2%, and India boasted 3.9%

and 6% respectively.

Attracting international investment, besides huge domestic investment and production expansion, has been counted as

the major factor contributing to the fast development of nonferrous metal industry in countries and regions with abundant

resources. International mining enterprises are willing to expand production in low-cost regions to cut down production cost.

World nonferrous metal exploration has been basically internationalized at present, and multinationals have also increased

their control and exerted greater influence on world market.

1.8.5 Increasing M&A by world mining powers

With continuous climbing of nonferrous metal prices, competition centering on such nonferrous metals as iron ores,

copper and nickel has become increasingly fierce. Following the new round of M&A climax driven by international mining

powers, international metal and mining sectors have become increasingly monopolized by a handful of enterprises.

Continuous M&A among mining powers leads to expansion of advantageous enterprises, complete industrial chains, bigger

market shares and enhanced technological and innovative capacities. World multinationals dominate world nonferrous metal

industries through capital operation and restructuring of enterprises in forms of alliance and merging.

Aluminum industry: Alcoa has effected 32 M&A cases during 1995-2000, with 16 cases completed in 2000 alone.

Following Alcoa’s acquisition of Alumax, the fourth largest aluminum enterprise in U.S.A. in 1998 and Reynolds Aluminum

Company, the fourth largest aluminum enterprise in the world in 1999, Alcoa became the world’s largest aluminum power

with annual sales reaching US$ 20 billion and controlling about 20% of the world’s alumina production capacity, 15% of the

world’s electrolytic aluminum production capacity and 12% of the world’s aluminum processing capacity. In addition, Alcan

Inc. purchased Aluminum Company of Switzerland and Aluminium Pechiney; Hydro Aluminum merged with VAW; Rio

Tinto Group purchased Comalco. Multinational aluminum corporations further have established their positions in economic

globalization through M&A among enterprises. While improving industrial chains, they spare no effort to reinforce effective

control of the aluminum industry by being expert in certain part in the industrial chain and cultivating advantageous

enterprises and core businesses. Currently, six international aluminum corporations including Alcoa, Alcan, Hydro, Russian

Aluminum, BHP-Billiton and Rio Tinto have controlled almost 48% of the world’s alumina production capacity and 43.8%

of the world’s electrolytic aluminum production capacity, and arranged 70% of alumina trade in international market.

Copper industry: Multinational copper corporations and mining corporations have accelerated merging and restructuring

paces, forming larger copper corporations including Codelco, Phelps Dodge and G rupo Mexico and large mining

corporations like BHP-Billiton, AngloAmerican and Rio Tinto. Such multinationals conduct copper prospecting and

exploration on a large scale in countries and regions abundant in copper resources. At present, an overwhelming majority of

China Business Guide

� 26 �

copper mines with bright prospect in the world have been controlled by such multinationals. The said six powers boasted a

combined copper output of 6.058 million tons in 2004, accounting for 43.3% of the global total and dominating world refined

copper supply.

Lead & zinc industry: Canadian Teck-Cominco have bought stakes in two of the world’s six largest lead & zinc mines in

recent years, aiming to occupy lead & zinc mineral resources with the lowest cost in the world and control prices of global

refined lead & zinc resources. Glencore purchased stake in zinc melting plants and mines through asset operation, and Xstrate,

a company held by Glencore with an annual production capacity exceeding 600,000 tons, currently is the major controller in

international lead & zinc futures and spot metal markets as well as refined ores markets. Belgian Umicore, with businesses

mainly in Europe and Asia, presently boasts an annual zinc ingot output of 650,000 tons, 70% of which are intensive

processed products like zinc alloys and zinc oxides. Korea Zinc, which increased its production capacity in Australia and

South Korea by building new plants, merging and acquisition, boasts a worldwide zinc ingot production capacity of nearly

900,000 tons took the world’s first place in terms of refined zinc output. Finnish Outokumpu replaced lead & zinc mines and

melting assets with Swedish Boliden to complement each other and secure supply of raw materials, thus maintaining their

competitive edge in Europe market.

According to Thomson Financial, M&A transactions with value totaling at least US$ 3.5 trillion were effected

worldwide in 2006; Dcalogic, a research institute, estimates that global M&A transactions is expected to a record high of

US$ 3.8 trillion in 2006, exceeding the historical high of US$ 3.330 trillion in 2000.

In January 2006, Canadian Barrick Gold acquired Placer Dome Inc, the second largest gold producer in Canada with

US$ 10.4, and grew as the world’s largest gold producer. On June 25, Mittal and Arcelor inked an agreement in Luxemburg,

incorporating a new corporation named “ArcelorMittal”, which is a super large iron & steel power with annual output

exceeding 100 million tons and transaction amount reaching US$ 32 billion. On September 11, Gold Fields in South Africa,

the world’s fourth largest gold producer announced to purchase a 50% stake in South Deep gold mines so as to take control of

the latter and secure its top position in world mining industry. On October 9, Rusal (a 66% stake), the third largest aluminum

corporation in the world and the largest in Russia, reached an agreement with Sual (a 22% stake), Russia’s second largest one

and Glencore International (a 12% stake) in terms of acquisition of alumina business. With an annual electrolytic aluminum

output of four million tons and alumina output of 11 million tons following the merging, the new corporation overtook Alcoa

as the world’s largest aluminum corporation, having 110,000 employees in 17 countries across the world. The acquisition

case shows Russian government’s resolution of helping mining powers compete in world mineral resources market, and

President Putin explicitly supported the acquisition case in his talk with presidents of Rusal and Sual.

American Freeport-McMoRanCopper & Gold Inc. announced to acquire Phelps Dodge with US$ 25.9 (both in cash and

stocks) on November 19. The new corporation will grow as the world’s largest listed copper corporations, and the largest

metal and mining corporation in North America. Merging of the two corporations will make global copper supply more

monopolized. CVRD reached an initial agreement with ICI, and CVRD’s acquisition of ICI with US$ 17.12 billion in cash

has been approved by Canadian authority. CVRD will establish CVRD Inco, a global nickel enterprise located in Toronto,

Canada.

On December 18, Norsk Statoil announced to aquire Norsk Hydro, its domestic rival through stock swap. Hydro stocks

will be exchanged as Statoil stocks at the proportion of 1:0.8622, and the transaction amount will total US$ 28 billion. Statoil

will thus grow as the world’s largest offshore crude oil producer and natural gas producer with crude oil production capacity

reaching 1.9 million barrels. The market value of the new corporation will amount to US$ 9.2 billion.

In October 2006, Rio Tinto invested US$ 1.5 billion to hold a stake in Oyu Tolgoi super large copper & gold mine

located in Omnogovi, which is owned by Ivanhoe Mines Ltd., and purchased 9.95% of Ivanhoe’s shares with a price of US$

8.38 per share based on its previous shares totaling US$ 303 million, thus holding 19.9% of Ivanhoe’s shares. It is estimated

that copper output in the mine will reach 210,000 tons in 2010 and 550,000 tons in 2015.

2 Chinese mineral resources

2.1 Natural conditions of Chinese mineral resources

China is located in the east of Asia and the west of the Pacific Ocean. China embraces beautiful, magnificent and grand

mountains, rivers and lakes on the vast land. In the west, there are many high mountains, and in the east, there are many hills

and plains. Rich mine resources are beneath the spacious earth and complicated relief. Various cross-age stratums can be

found in China, from remote antiquity to Cenozoic. Over more than three billion years from the remote antiquity to Cenozoic,

Chinese terrain experienced a number of large-scale magma activities, as a result of which, various kinds of magma rocks

were formed all over the country. China is a major part of Europe-Asia continent, and is generated through global crustal

movement and evolution. From the point of view of block structure hypothesis, China is in the southeast of Europe-Asia

block, connected with Pacific block and Philippine block in the east and Indian block in the south. Chinese block is

influenced by several different earth structural units, so the geological structure possesses diversified mines.

Since 1949, China has carried out many large-scale mine prospecting activities. The state has found 168 minerals, and

153 minerals among them have been prospected with certain amount, including eight energy minerals, 54 metal minerals, 88

non-metal minerals, and three water & gas minerals.

Energy minerals are an important part of Chinese mineral resource. Unrenewable energy proportions of coal, oil, and gas

are 93% and 95% in the world and in China respectively. Mineral energy is predominant in unrenewable energy consumption,

and is strategically significant to national economy and social development. China has rich energy mineral resource all over

the country. Eight energy minerals have been prospected with certain reserve, including coal, oil, gas, oil shale, uranium,

thorium, and terrestrial heat. China has rich coal resource. According to the survey conducted by geologists, the total coal

reserve within the earth’s crust surface layer 2000m below the horizon is estimated to 5,059.2 billion tons.

China has rich metal mineral resource all over the country, and 54 metal minerals with prospected reserve contain iron,

manganese, chrome, titanium, navajoite, copper, lead, zinc, alumyte, magnesium, nickel, cobalt, tungsten, tin, bismuth,

molybdenum, hydrargyrum, stibium, platinum family, germanium, gallium, indium, thallium, hafnium, rhenium, cadmium,

scandium, selenium, and Te mines. The mineral reserves vary due to different geological work. Minerals with large reserves

include tungsten, molybdenum, tin, stibium, Hg, vanadium, titanium, rare earth, lead, zinc, copper and iron. Some minerals

have very low reserves, such as chrome.

The total reserve of major metal minerals is high, and China has complete mineral types that have been prospected.

Major minerals, such as coal, iron, copper, aluminium, lead, and zinc, have high prospected reserves. Minerals such as coal,

rare earth, tungsten, tin, molybdenum, stibium, titanium, gypsum, bentonite, Glauber’s salt, magnesite, barite, fluorite, talcum,

and graphite, have high reserves in the world. Terrestrial heat and mineral water reserves are high, and the quality of

underground water is high at large. China has a large population and mineral amount per capital, which is low in the world.

China lacks diamond, platinum, chromite, sylvite, and other minerals. The quality of tungsten, tin, rare earth, molybdenum,

stibium, talcum, magnesite, and graphite is high. For iron, manganese, aluminium, copper, and phosphor mines, there are

many lean ores, symbiotic ores and satellite ores, as well as ores that are difficult to dress.

Western China is vast and spacious with complex geological conditions. A long-term geological movement brings rich

minerals. China has found 168 minerals, and all of them can be found in the west, with 130 minerals that have been

prospected with certain reserves. The coal reserve in the west is over 380 billion tons, accounting for 38.5% in the total

reserve of the state. Guizhou and Yunnan provinces are important places where coal is produced. The predicted coal reserve

in Xinjiang is 219,000 billion tons, which is the highest reserve among all provinces in China. Oil reserve that can be

exploited in the west is 400 million tons, accounting for 18% in the state. Gas reserve that can be exploited is 334.6 billion

cubic metres. It is predicted that the western area, in particular Xinjiang, will become a major place where China procures oil,

and a strategic alternative area of oil production. Oil fields with resource amount over 100 million tons are mostly located in

China Business Guide

� 34 �

Tarim Basin, Xinjiang. Speeding up exploiting and using mineral resources in the west and turning resource advantage into

economic advantage is an important strategic measure that reduces the gap between the east and the west and promotes

coordinated development of regional economy in China.

2.2 Prospecting and exploitation of Chinese mineral resources

In 1949, there were only 300-odd mines that have been completely kept. The annual output of crude oil was 120,000

tons, coal 320,000 tons, steel 160,000 tons, non-ferrous metal 13,000 tons, sulphur ore 10,000 tons, and phosphor less than

100,000 tons. After over fifty years of efforts, China established large-scale oil bases such as Daqing, Shengli, and Liaohe,

coal bases such as Datong, Yanzhou, Pingdingshan, Huihe, and Junggar, steel and iron bases such as Shanghai, Anshan,

Wuhan, and Panzhihua, non-ferrous metal bases such as Baiyin, Jinchuan, Tongling, Dexing, and Gejiu, and chemical mines

such as Kaiyang, Kunyang, and Yunfu. A powerful supply system of energy and raw material ore products has been cultivated.

A number of mining cities emerged and promoted urbanization process in China. At present, the throughput and consumption

of Chinese mining products are among the top states in the world. In 2002, China had 489 large-size mines, 1,025

middle-size mines, and over 140,000 small-size mines and sand and clay mines. The number of mining practitioners was

9,070,000, and mining production value was 454.2 billion yuan. The output of crude oil was 167,000,000 tons, natural gas

32.7 billion cubic metres, exploited amount of ore, sand and clay 4,849 million tons, including crude coal 1.38 billion tons,

iron ore 231 million tons, and phosphorite 23.01 million tons. The output of ten non-ferrous metals was 10.12 million tons.

Currently, the outputs of crude coal, steel, ten non-ferrous metals, and cement are at the first place in the world, the output of

phosphorite is at the second place, sulphur iron ore at the third place, and crude oil at the fifth place. State-owned mine

enterprises are the main power to exploit mineral resource in China, and are the bases that stably supply energy and raw

material. Crude oil, natural gas, and 36% of other ores are produced by 7,679 state-owned mine enterprises, which contribute

to industrial and agricultural development, people’s lives, and comprehensive national strength. Since middle 1980s, mine

enterprises with various economic sectors developed fast. Nowadays, the number of non-state-owned mine enterprises is over

140,000, including 132 enterprises invested by Hong Kong, Macao, and Taiwan enterprises, and 160 enterprises invested by

foreign enterprises.

Since China’s reform and opening-up in 1979, geological and mining departments increasingly opened up, and have

established cooperative relations with almost 130 states and regions in the world and frequent contact relations with 12 UN

organizations, and have joined 28 international geoscience organizations. An opening-up all-round pattern with multiple

layers, various forms, multiple channels and highlighted points has been formed. A series Sino-foreign projects have been

started or are to be started, and many projects have made favourable social and economic profits, including geological and

physical geography investigation and research in the Yellow Sea conducted by South Korea and China, mine formation

discipline comparison research on gold mines and noble metals conducted by Uzbekistan and China, Qiantongshan lead and

zinc mine in Shaanxi co-exploited with a Malaysian mining company, waste water disposal project in Dexing copper mine in

Jiangxi conducted with Japan, and mine waste management project conducted with Australia.

2.3 Protection of Chinese mineral resources

Protection and use of mineral resource has been gradually promoted. Over the past fifty years, mineral resource

prospecting technical progress was made in terms of physical prospecting, chemical prospecting, remote sensing, drilling, pit

prospecting, and experiment, testing, and computing technologies were also advanced. Scientific and technological level was

heightened in mineral resource prospecting. Positive effects of comprehensive use and recycling of mineral resource are

obvious, and resource use rate is raised. Currently, recycling rate of waste steel is 40%, waste non-ferrous metal 27.70%. All

platinum family metals and scattered elements come from comprehensive use, and almost 1/3 vitriol material is extracted

from non-ferrous metals during the production process. Some mine enterprises exploit gas, oil shale, kaolin, and

high-aluminium clay that co-exist with coal, and processes and uses gangue and coal powder. This brings favourable

� 35 �

Mining

economic and environmental benefits.

Comprehensive use of mineral resource is an important measure for exploiting mineral resource, and a way of using and

protecting natural environment. Since 1980s, China strengthened macro control over comprehensive use of mineral resource,

developed relevant policies and regulations, and promoted comprehensive use of mineral resource. The average

comprehensive use rate of non-ferrous minerals has reached 35% or so. Jinchuan Nickel Factory made great achievements in

comprehensive use. The factory, which is an example for comprehensive use of non-ferrous metal minerals in China, also

procures copper, platinum, palladium, gold, rhodium, iridium, punner and ruthenium. Currently, the comprehensive use rate

of ferrous metal mineral resource is 30-40% in China, and the rate of iron ore is 36.7%. Panzhihua Iron Mine Factory and

Baotou Iron Mine Factory are remarkable examples. The use of solid waste in relation to mining is promoted. Waste residue

of non-ferrous metal industry is mainly used as exploitation filling, building material, and other industrial items. The use rate

reaches 69%. Residue of steel & iron industry is mainly used for building material, and the use rate of furnace residue is

85%.Recycling and reuse of waste metals in China is highlighted. Currently, waste aluminium recycling amount accounts for

17% of total aluminium output in the state, waste zinc 6%, waste lead 12%, waste copper 34%, and waste steel 30%. In 2006,

the renewed non-ferrous metal amount was 4.53 million tons, increasing by 21% than 2005. Renewed copper amount was

1.68 million tons, renewed aluminium 2.35 million tons, renewed lead 0.39 million tons, and renewed zinc 0.11 million tons,

increasing by 18%, 21%, 39% and 29% respectively than 2005. According to the data of China Customs, China imported

6.78 million tons of waste non-ferrous metals, increasing by 3.1% than 2005. The amount of waste material containing

copper was 4.94 million tons, the amount of waste material containing aluminium 1.77 million tons, and the amount of waste

material containing zinc 70,000 tons, increasing by 2.5%, 5.3% and -5.3% respectively than 2005. In 2006, China retrieved

680,000 tons of waste copper, 930,000 tons of waste aluminium, and 390,000 tons of waste lead. Since 2005, the import of

waste non-ferrous metals to China accounted for about 1/3 in the total world trade amount. China became the largest import

country and distribution centre of waste non-ferrous metals.

Exploitation and use of mineral resource has serious bad effect on the environment. Mine exploitation may cause ground

sedimentation, which damages underground water, disturbs ecological system, and triggers earthquakes, mud-rock flow and

hill slide. Processing of mineral products may cause noise pollution, powder pollution and harmful gas pollution, and further

damage the ecological environment. Therefore, reinforcement of environmental protection in mining industry is an important

issue in mineral resource exploitation in China. The Population, Environment and Development White Book of China in the

21st Century proposes the objective of balancing mineral exploitation and environmental protection, aiming at promoting

comprehensive use of waste stones, water and gas of mines, turning gangue, waste stones, waste water, and waste gas of

mines into resource, preventing them from influencing the surrounding, and forming a system of environmental rectification

and plant cultivation after closing the pit. At the same time, the Chinese government also took measures to coordinate mineral

exploitation and environmental protection, such as testing environmental quality in mines, investigating and evaluating

damages to the nature in mines, developing protection and restoration plans, making use of economic methods to encourage

comprehensive use and recycling of mineral resource in mines, spreading advanced technologies, reducing wastes,

disseminating legal and scientific knowledge to the public via radio, films, newspapers and magazines, and strengthening the

consciousness of balancing mineral exploitation and environmental protection.

2.4 Distribution of major mineral resources in China

2.4.1 Distribution features of Chinese mineral resources

China has one of the largest mining industries in the world. The annual ore turnout is five billion tons in the state.

State-owned mines exploit 150 kinds of minerals with annual ore turnout of two billion tons (excluding oil and gas).

Nom-state-owned small-size mines exploit 179 kinds of minerals (sub-minerals) with annual ore turnout of three billion tons.

China produces 167 million tons of crude oil per year. The yields of coal, cement, crude steel, phosphorite, sulphur iron ore,

and ten non-ferrous metals are among the top states in the world. The exploitation scale of solid minerals is at the second

China Business Guide

� 36 �

place in the world. Chinese mineral resource is characterized by the following points:

The total amount of mineral resource is high, and the resource has a wide range of variety, but the resource amount per

capita is low. By the end of 2005, China has discovered 171 minerals, and 159 minerals have been prospected with certain

reserves, including 10 energy minerals, 54 metal minerals, 92 non-metal minerals, and three water and gas minerals. The

number of discovered deposits and beds is over 200,000, and 18,000 have been prospected with certain reserves. More than

20 minerals, such as coal, rare earth, tungsten, tin, tantalum, vanadium, stibium, magnesite, titanium, fluorite, barite, graphite,

bentonite, talc, Glauber’s salt, and gypsum, have high reserves, high quality, and high international competitiveness. However,

the resource amount per capita is low, only accounts for 58% of the average level in the world, and ranks at the 53rd place in

the world.

Most minerals have low quality and low international competitiveness. Compared with foreign countries with

high-volume mineral resources, China has low-quality mineral resources. When ore grade, ore type, and dressing and

smelting performance of ores are taken into account, the quality of gold, sylvite, oil, lead, and zinc mines is at the middle

level, and the quality of coal, ore, manganese, copper, bauxite, sulphur, and phosphor mines are at the lowest level. In general,

the quality of high-volume minerals, in particular lacking minerals, is low, and these minerals have low international

competitiveness. Therefore, the exploitation and use of these minerals is restrained.

China lacks some important minerals, and the prospected reserves of some important minerals are low. China lacks some

important minerals such as oil, natural gas, iron, manganese, chromite, copper, bauxite, and sylvite, and largely depends on

importation. In 2006, imported oil accounted for 47.3% in total oil consumption in China.

There are many symbiotic (satellite) mines in China, so it requires advanced exploitation technologies. According to

statistics, more than 80 minerals are in symbiotic (satellite) mines, in particular non-ferrous minerals. For instance, lead-zinc

mines have over 50 components, and silver in lead-zinc mines accounts for 60% of the total silver reserve in the state, and for

70% of the total output. The state has over 10 large-size and super large-size symbiotic copper deposits, and 76% of

symbiotic gold and 32.5% of symbiotic silver come from copper deposits. Although potential value of symbiotic (satellite)

mines is high, and even higher than the value of the main component, technical requirement is also high. Dressing and

smelting is complicated, and the cost is high, so the competitiveness is low.

The amount of middle and small-size mines and pit mines is high, and the amount of large-size and super large-size

mines and opencast mines is low. This constrains mining scale and benefit. China has a lot of mines, but the scale of an

individual deposit is small. Large-size and super large-size deposits contain tungsten, aluminium, stibium, lead-zinc, nickel,

rare earth, siderite, and graphite. Important minerals, including iron, copper, aluminium, gold, oil, and natural gas, are found

mainly in middle and small-size mines that are difficult to exploit in a large scale. An individual deposit has low output, so

the general benefit of resource exploitation is affected. No super large-size high-grade iron mines (500 million tons) or

high-grade copper mines (five million tons) have been found in China, while there were over 60 super large-size copper

mines with prospected metal amount of over 10 million tons in foreign countries. The annual output of 329 copper mines

under exploitation in China is 334,000 tons. There are 48 super large-size gold mines at above 200-ton level, but China has

only seven gold mines at above 60-ton level. The number of opencast mines is small. The reserve of opencast coal mines

accounts for only 7%, while American and Australian opencast mines account for 60% and70% of the total outputs.

Therefore, the productivity, cost, and recycling exploitation rate in foreign countries are much lower than that in China. In

terms of metal minerals in China, over 70% of bauxite, over 80% of copper, and over 90% of nickel are exploited in pits.

Opencast sulphur iron mines account for only 15%. The deposits are in small scale, and pit mining is used, so exploitation in

a certain scale cannot be realized. These lead to low exploitation rate and low economic benefit in Chinese mining industry.

Geographic distribution of mineral resource is not average, and production areas are not the same with processing and

consumption areas. Due to different geological mineral formation conditions, some important minerals are concentrated.

Among over 200,000 discovered deposits and beds, deposits and beds of major minerals are found in each province,

autonomous region and city directly under the state, but some minerals with prospected reserves are centered in some areas.

Coal mines are found in all over the country apart from Shanghai, and 92% of prospected reserve is centered in 12 provinces,

autonomous regions and cities directly under the state. The reserve in Shanxi, Inner Mongolia, and Shaanxi accounts for 64%.

Iron mines can be found in 28 provinces, autonomous regions and cities directly under the state, while 80% of the total

� 37 �

Mining

reserve is centered in 10 provinces and autonomous regions. The reserve in Liaoning, Hebei and Sichuan accounts for a half.

Copper mines can be found in 29 provinces, autonomous regions and cities directly under the state, 75% of prospected

reserve is centered in nine provinces, including Jiangxi, Tibet, Gansu, Shanxi, Heilongjiang, and Anhui. Phosphor mines can

be found in 26 provinces, autonomous regions and cities directly under the state, and 77% of the total reserve is distributed in

Yunnan, Guizhou, Sichuan, Hubei, and Hunan. Mineral resource is not averagely distributed, so Chinese strategic stress of

mining industry must transfer to the west. The fact that different minerals are centered in different regions helps building

mining bases in a certain scale. Iron ores are mainly found in the northeast, north and southwest. Copper mines are widely

spread, especially in the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River. Phosphor mines are mainly found in the southwest

and middle south. Tungsten, stibium, tin, and some advantageous resources are mainly found in northeast-southwest

mountains at the borders of Hunan, Jiangxi, Guangdong and Guangxi.

More low-grade mines and less high-grade mines and mines that are easy for dressing increase the cost of commercial

mines. Major mineral resources in China suffer from the situation. In China, average grade of iron ore is as low as 33%, 10%

lower than the average grade in the world. In major iron ore manufacturing countries such as Australia, Brazil, India, and

Russia, the iron ore grade reaches 62% of commercial ore grade before dressing. The average manganese mine grade is only

22% in China, while the industrial standard grade of world manganese commercial ore is 48%. Most of Chinese manganese

mines contain manganese carbonate that is hard for dressing. The average copper mine grade is only 0.87 in China, while the

grade is 1.5 in Chile and 2% in Zambia. Chinese bauxite mainly contains diaspore-water, and the production cost in China is

higher than that in America, Canada and Australia, where boehmite is mainly used. The average grade of phosphor mines is

only 17% in China, and the reserve of rich ore accounts only for 6.6%. The amount of collophane is high, so it is difficult to

concentrate. Most sulphur mines are sulphur iron ores. The amount of lean ore is high and rich ore low. The reserve of

first-level rich ore accounts for only 4.3%. In most foreign countries, natural sulphur and oil and gas by-product sulphur are

the major part. China lacks sylvite, and K-Mg salt in salines is used now, but the cost-effective rate is much lower than that in

foreign countries, where solid KCl is used.

2.4.2 Main production bases of resource-type minerals

Many large-size mineral material production bases have been built up in China, including the coal production bases in

Shanxi, Shaanxi, Inner Mongolia, Henan, and Anhui; oil and gas production bases such as Daqing, Shengli, Liaohe, Xinjiang,

Zhongyuan, and North China Oil Fields; ten iron ore production bases in Anshan-Benxi in Liaoning, Xichang-Panzhihua in

Sichuan, and northern Hebei; copper production bases in the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River, the boarder

between Sichuan and Yunnan provinces, Jinchuan-Baiyun in Gansu, and Zhongtiao Mountain in Shanxi; six gold production

bases in eastern Shandong, Litte Qinling, Heilongjiang, west Guangdong-Hainan, Hebei, and the boundary of Shaanxi, Gansu

and Sichuan; sulphur iron mines in Guangdong, Hunan, Inner Mongolia, and Sichuan, and seven phosphor production bases

such as Kunyang in Yunnan, and Kaiyang-Weng’an in Guizhou.

Chinese geological survey focuses on lacking minerals and entire evaluation of belt. Potential survey and evaluation of

important mineral resource in the west is a priority in order to find new alternative areas of resource prospecting. Funds are

centered on prospecting large and super-large-size mines to make breakthrough. Science and technology is stressed, and mine

formation discipline and prospecting prediction is strengthened.

New mines were found both in the west where the survey was not widely implemented and in the middle and east where

the survey was energetically carried out. At present, a number of new state-level resource bases are confirmed in northwest

Yunnan and east Tianshan Mountains beside the Brahmaputra and three rivers in southwest China. Nanling non-ferrous metal

production base is further consolidated.

(1) Brahmaputra mineralization belt

Brahmaputra mineralization belt is an important part of Tethys Himalayas mineralization field, one of the three largest

non-ferrous metal mineralization fields in the world. When the Himalayas rose, it was influenced by Indian block that

continued diving to the north. As a result, Mountain Kailash volcano-magma rock belt along the Brahmaputra on

Qinghai-Tibet Plateau. Large-scale mineralization effect formed a 400-km east-west large-size porphyry copper mine belt,

which is one of the most potential mineral areas in the world.

Sixteen promising mines at large size and above have been found, and five non-ferrous metal mine concentration areas

have been formed in Qulong-Jiama, Nimu, Jiru, Zhunuo and Dangxiong. The copper increment is 10.91 million tons,

lead-zinc 6.42 million tons, iron 257.47 million tons, silver 105.41 million tons, and molybdenum 500,000 tons. Prospected

copper reserve in Qulong copper mine is 7.89 million tons. Qulong copper mine is a super large-size mine following Dexing

Copper Mine in China. Potentials still exist around Qulong mine. Prospected copper reserve of large-size Zhunuo mine in

Angren County is 1.07 million tons. Prospected copper reserve of large-size Lawu copper-zinc mine in Dangxiong County is

340,000 tons, and lead-zinc 2.35 million tons. The predicted copper resource amount is over 20 million tons and lead-zinc 10

million tons.

Qulong copper mine: From 1987 to 1994, Tibetan Geological and Mining Bureau carried out regional chemical

prospecting and abnormity investigation, found the green “Peacock River”, and circled the copper (molybdenum)

mineralization body. In 2001, the Bureau confirmed the potential in Qulong area. China Geological Survey started to deploy

survey work in Qulong mine area and Brahmaputra mineralization belt.

By the end of 2006, drilling length was over 7,000 meters, and five ore bodies were discovered and evaluated.

Prospected copper reserve was 7,896,500 tons, and average copper grade was 0.496%. Symbiotic molybdenum reserve was

501,000 tons and silver 5,931.80 tons. Predicted resource amount of Qulong copper mine is 1.4-1.8 million tons, and Qulong

mine might become the largest copper deposit.

When infrastructures such as Qinghai-Tibet railway were improved, resource development in Brahmaputra

mineralization belt was expedited. With Qulong copper mine at the core, a new state-level non-ferrous metal resource base is

being built. The annual output of copper in Brahmaputra mineralization belt is predicted to be 150,000 tons in 2015, and

lead-zinc 100,000 tons.

(2) Southwest three-river mineralization belt

Southwest three-river mineralization belt refers to the three-river-flow-alongside area among Nujiang River, Lancang

River, and Jinsha River (Yuanjiang River), including southern Qinghai, eastern Tibet, western Sichuan and western Yunnan.

The belt is between Indian block and Yangtze block, where geological structure is complex, deposit components are

diversified, magma activities are frequent, and transformation effect is strong. Frequent formation-magma-mineralization

activities constitute an important nonferrous metal and noble metal mineralization belt in China, which is an important part of

Tethys Himalayas mineralization field.

Since the large-scale geological survey, over ten large-size deposits were discovered, including Pulang copper mine,

Yangla copper mine, Lirenka copper mine, Dapingzhang copper mine, Baiyangping silver-lead-zinc mine, Luziyuan lead-zinc

mine, Chang’an gold mine, and Beiya gold mine. The copper resource amount is 7.3 million tons, lead-zinc 3.5 million tons,

gold 180 tons and silver 5,600 tons.

Pulang copper mine: China Geological Survey started to arrange prospecting work in details in Pulang copper mine in

2002. Till the end of 2006, drilling length was 17,468 meters and seven industrial ore bodies were circled. Prospected copper

resource amount was 4,365,100 tons, and average grade was 0.4%. Symbiotic (satellite) gold was 213.10 tons with average

grade of 0.18g/ton, silver 1,503.51 tons with average grade of 1.27g/ton, and molybdenum 118,400 tons with average grade

of 0.01%. Over ten magma bodies containing minerals were found around Pulang, indicating a promise. The expected copper

resource amount in the area is over 10 million tons.

After a large amount of minerals were found in Pulang copper mine, commercial mineral prospecting fund was attracted.

From 2004 to 2006, the investment in commercial mineral prospecting was 70.75 million yuan, the drilling length was 36,676

meters, and pit drilling length was 540 meters. Ore body exploitation was divided into two phases. In the first phase, the

designed mine production scale was 50,000 tons of refined copper per year, and 100,000 tons in the second phase. The

planned investment for the first phase was 1.8 billion yuan and 3 billion yuan for the second phase. The total investment was

4.8 billion yuan. After Pulang copper mine is put into production, it will become one of the largest copper mines in western

China. The annual output of refined copper will be 150,000 tons, and tax paid per year will be 470 million yuan, and the

number of employment posts is 7,000. The state-level nonferrous resource base in northwest Yunnan, with Pulang and Yangla

at the core, is under construction.

Mining

Apart from Pulang copper mine, other important mineral areas in Yunnan of Southwest three-river mineralization belt

were effectively exploited. Currently, nine mines have been constructed and three are under construction. The production

value is over 911 million yuan and tax 120 million yuan. The total survey investment is 6.375 billion yuan.

After these mines are built up, the annual output of copper will be 150,000-200,000 tons, lead-zinc 150,000-200,000

tons, gold 8 tons, and silver 100 tons. The annual production value increment will be 10.6 billion yuan. The mines are

significant for easing the situation of resource lack in the state, promoting regional economic development, and consolidating

national unity and social stability.

(3)Nanling mineralization zone

Fifteen large-size tin mines were found in Qitianling, Xitian, Gupo Mountain and Jiuni Mountain. The tin resource

amount is 560,000 tons, including 420,000 tons in Bailashui mine zone and 140,000 tons in Jinchuantang mine zone. The

potential tin resource amount in the whole zone is over one million tons. Tin-tungsten amount under the control of

engineering in Xitian tin mine is over 140,000 tons, and the expected long-term amount is 500,000 tons. Tin amount in Gupo

Mountain tin mine is expected to be more than 200,000 tons.

Bailashui tin mine: After the new concept of “mineralization in later-phase small rock mass in large rock mass” was

proposed, erosive rock mass tin mines, typically No. 10 ore body, and conformation erosion belt-silicon rock complex tin

mines, typically No. 19 ore body, were found. This was the first case that a large-size tin deposit was found in large rock

mass. Bailashui tin mine was another breakthrough of geological prospecting in southern Hunan after Huangshaping and

Shizhuyuan.

(4)Tianshan Mountains mineralization belt

Tianshan Mountains mineralization belt is in the centre of middle Asia, and is an important part in ancient Asia

mineralization field. The belt ranges from Kazakhstan-Junggar mineralization zone to Tarim mineralization zone, and has

complicated geological conditions as well as rich mineral resources.

Since the large-scale geological survey, the discovery of porphyry copper mine in eastern part of Tianshan Mountains

has drawn attention from China and foreign countries. Twenty-two mines were found. Tuwu and Yandong large-size

porphyry copper deposits, Lop Nur large-size sylvite deposit, and Wulagen large-size lead-zinc deposit have been initially

evaluated. The prospected copper resource amount was 3.09 million tons, lead-zinc 1.48 million tons, gold 51 tons, nickel

380,000 tons, and sylvite 71.24 million tons. The expected copper amount in the whole area is over 10 million tons. The

prospected copper amount in Tuwu-Yandong large-size copper deposit was 2.27 million tons, and commercial mineral survey

has been started. Survey in details has been completed. Commercial survey and exploitation has been started immediately

after Lop Nur large-size sylvite deposit was discovered.

When the large-scale geological survey is deepened, new discoveries are expected in Tianshan Mountains mineralization

belt. Porphyry copper mines have great potential and are expected to become nonferrous metal resource base in the future.

2.4.3 Distribution of ferrous metal minerals

Iron ore:

There are 2,974 prospected iron ore zones, including 121 large-size zones, and 1,248 prospected copper mines, including

37 large-size ones. Iron ore reserve is 59.385 billion tons in China, and the iron ore reserve that is under exploitation is

26.664 billion tons, with 32.721 billion tons remained. Most iron ores are lean ores, and the average grade is 30-35%. Most

ores are magnetite, and there are 1,828 magnetite mine zones. Large-size and super large-size iron ore zones comprise

Anshan-Benxi iron ore zone in Liaoning, eastern Hebei and Beijing iron ore zone, Handan-Xingtai iron ore zone in Hebei,

In northeast China, Anshan mine zone is the largest iron ore mine, and has the largest reserve and exploitation amount in

China. Large-size ore bodies are seen in Anshan (including Dahu Mountain, Yingtaoyuan, eastern and western Anshan and

Gongchangling) and Benxi (including Nanfen, Waitou Mountain and Tongyuanpu), and some beds are seen in Tonghua, Jilin

Province. Anshan mine zone is the raw material base for Angang Steel and Benxi Steel. Anshan mine zone lacks rich ore, and

98% of the total reserve is lean ore. The grade is 20-40%, averagely 30% or so. Dressing must be done, and the grade will

reach over 60% after dressing. Most ores are magnetite and hematite, and some are feint magnetite and feint hematite. The

ore structure is dense and hard, and the gangue is even and compact. Dressing is difficult, and restoration performance of ores

is bad. The gangue is mainly made up of quartz, with SiO2 at 40-50%. The ore in Tongyuanpu, Benxi, is autolyzed ore, and

the alkalinity (Ca+Mg/SiO2) is over 1. The ore contains 1.29-7.5% of manganese, so it can be used as manganese mine. The

ore contains a little S and P impurity. The iron ore in Nanfen, Benxi, contains low-grade P, and is good raw material for

smelting pig iron.

In North China, iron ores are distributed in Xuanhua and Qian’an in Hebei, Wu’an and Kuangshan Village in Handan

and Xingtai of Hebei, and other places in Inner Mongolia and Shanxi. Shougang, Baotou Steel, Taiyuan Steel, Handan Steel,

Xuanhua Steel, and Yangquan Steel are based in the area. Ores in Qianluan mine zone are lean magnetite, similar to Anshan.

The ores contain acid gangue and a little S and P impurities. The ore is easy to dress. Ores in Handan and Xingtai are mainly

hematite and magnetite. The grade is 40-55%. The gangue contains alkaline oxids. Some ores contain high-grade S.

In central south China, Daye iron ore in Hubei is the largest, and mines are also found in Xiangtan of Hunan, Anyang

and Wuyang in Henan, Jiangxi, Guangdong, and Hainan. Wuhan Steel & Iron, Xiangtan Steel, and local large and

middle-size furnaces are based on these mines. Daye mine zone is one of the earliet mines that were exploited in China, and

mainly consists of Tieshan, Jinshandian, Chengchao, and Lingxiang mines. The reserve is high. Most ores are iron-copper

symbiotic ores. Magnetite is the dominant ore, then hematite, and chalcopyrite and pyrite are also seen. The iron grade is

40-50%, at most 54-60%. Gangue contains calcite and quartz. Gangue contains 28% SiO2 (CaO/SiO2 is 0.3). The ore

contains low P (0.027%), high S (0.01-1.2%), Cu (0.2-1.0%) and Co (0.013%-0.025%). The restoration performance of the

ore is bad. The ore is smelted in furnaces after agglomeration.

Manganese mine:

There are 213 prospected manganese mine zones in China, mainly including Wafangzi manganese mine in Liaoning,

Liancheng manganese mine in Fujian, Xiangtan, Minle, Manaoshan, and Xiangtaoyuan manganese mines in Hunan, Xiaodai

and Xinchun manganese mines in Guangdong, Bayi, Xialei, and Lipu manganese mines in Guangxi, Gaoyan and

Qiaodingshan manganese mines in Sichuan, and Zunyi manganese mine in Guizhou.

Chromite:

There are 56 chormite mines, mainly including Saertuohai in Xinjiang, Luobusha in Tibet, Hegen Mountain in Inner

Mongolia, and Dadaoerji in Gansu.

2.4.4 Distribution of nonferrous metal minerals

China has a great deal of nonferrous metal resource, but the resource amount per capita is low. The amount of resource

that can be exploited is low, and the amounts of some metals, such as tungsten, tin, stibium, and rare earth, is high. The state

urgently lacks copper, aluminium, lead, and zinc that account for 94% of nonferrous metal output. Chinese nonferrous metal

resource quality is low, and there are more lean, small-size and symbiotic (satellite) ores and less rich, large-size and single

ores. It is difficult to exploit, and the cost is high, the competitiveness low. Chinese nonferrous metal reserve that can be

commercially exploited accounts for less than 30% in the total prospected reserve. By the end of 1999, the reserve of copper

mines is 19.419 million tons, bauxite 3.7 billion tons, lead 77.14 million tons, zinc 224.91 million tons, tungsten 14.33

million tons, tin 9.72 million tons, stibium 5.81 million tons, molybdenum 13.29 million tons, rare earth 221.36 million tons,

and nickel 2.75 million tons. According to Chinese nonferrous metal ore output and resource exploitation rate in 1999,

guarantee static time of copper is 169 years, lead 67 years, zinc 94 years, tin 67 years, stibium 48 years, molybdenum 165

years, and bauxite only 57 years (according to actual exploitation rate V/S>l0). If the increment of the demand of nonferrous

metals due to high-speed economic growth and the damage to the resource caused by random exploitation are taken into

� 41 �

Mining

account, the time will be shorter. Mine productivity and resource status directly constrain Chinese nonferrous metal industry.

At present, it is hard for most nonferrous metal mines, which have low exploitation reserves, low output, and low benefit.

More and more mines have been closed. The state increasingly depends on importation. Among 159 nonferrous metal mines

directly under the central government, 45 mines were approved to close in 1999, and 43 mines were listed in the closing plan

for 2001, accounting for 55% of the total mines. There are 722 mines of ten common nonferrous metals at above county level

in the state, and the output is 139.33 million tons. By 2010, 335 mines might be closed, and the output might reduce of 49.55

million tons, accounting for 35% of the total output. In 2001, the yield of copper, lead, zinc, nickel, tin, and stibium was only

2,959,000 tons, decreasing by 5% than 2000. The domestic supply rate of smelting mineral raw material was as low as 59.7%,

and the rate continued decreasing. In 2001, China produced 4.73 million tons of alumna, accounting for 59% in total

consumption, and imported 3.346 million tons. The imported copper concentrate amount was higher than the output of

copper concentrate in China. The import of lead and zinc reached 20% and 15% in total demand amount. The mine grade

continued decreasing. Compared with the grade in the year when the highest grade occurred, the average copper mine grade

was only 0.61% in 2001, decreasing by 41%. The grade of nickel decreased by 14%, tin 46.7%, stibium 69%, tungsten 55.5%,

and molybdenum 6.3%. At the same time, mine exploitation deepness, difficulty, and cost went up.

Copper mines:

There are 1,248 prospected copper mine zones in China, and the copper mine resource reserve is 85.31 million tons.

Major mines are Duobao Mountain copper mine in Heilongjiang, Wunugetu Mountain and Huogeqi in Inner Mongolia,

Huangshaping in Hunan, Fankou in Guangdong, Wubu in Zhejiang, Lengshuikeng in Jiangxi, Qixiashan in Jiangsu, Dachang

in Guangxi, and Lanping, Huize and Dulong in Yunnan.

By the end of 2005, the prospected lead reserve was 39.35 million tons, including 13.93 million tons of basic reserve

and 25.42 million tons of prospected resource amount. The prospected zinc reserve was 94.95 million tons, including 42.69

million tons of basic reserve and 52.26 million tons of prospected resource amount. Major producing areas are Nanling,

Sichuan-Yunnan, western Yunnan, Qinling-Qilian Mountains, and Lang Mountain-Chaertai. Currently, about 75% of lead

mines and over 79% of zinc resource reserves are under exploitation, and the state is short of lead-zinc mines that can be

planned and resource reserve. The estimated lead-zinc resource amount that has not been prospected is 518 million tons, and

the prospected resource amount is 130 million tons, accounting for 20% in the toal resource amount. According to the

documents of Chinese Mineral Resource Availability Research (2001), promising mineralization zones and belts contain

De’erbugan, the middle of the northern edge of the platform in North China, borders among Hubei, Henan and Shaanxi,

Chenzhou in Hunan, Zhaotong-Liupanshui, the middle of three-river area in the southwest, western part of northern Qilian

Mountains, northern edge of Chaidamu, Habahe-Fuyun, western part of Tianshan Mountains, and western part of western

Kunlun Mountains. The state will carry out cross-century survey, and the predicted lead-zinc resource amount is over 50

million tons.

Magnesium:

Chinese magnesium resource amount is among the top in the world. There are complete magnesium resource types, and

magnesium mines are widely spread. The magnesium resource ores in china account for 22.5% at the top the world.

Magnesite reserve is at the first place in the world, and the prospected reserve is 3.4 billion tons, accounting for 28.3% in the

world. The output of original magnesium accounts for over 70% at the top of the world. China has many dolomites

containing magnesium throughout the country, particularly in Shanxi, Ningxia, Henan, Jilin, Qinghai, and Guizhou. The

prospected reserve is over four billion tons. The expected reserve of magnesium salt mineral resource in the four largest

saline area in China is over one billion tons. Inside Qaidam Basin, 33 bittern lakes, half-dry salines and dry salines have the

largest amount of mangesium salt resource in China. Magnesium alloy accounts for 0.13% in the total seawater in China.

2.5 Supply and demand trend of major minerals in China

2.5.1 Supply and demand status of ferrous metal minerals

Iron ore is the main material of steel and iron industry, and the supply amount and quality of iron ore is crucial to the

industry. There are 1,161 iron ore mines under exploitation in China, and the prospected resource reserve is 25.995 billion

tons, including 14.062 billion tons of basic reserve. The prospected resource reserve of mines under exploitation accounts for

45.1% in the total prospected resource reserve.

In 2005, the original iron ore output was 420 million tons in China, increasing by 25.35 than 2004. Eight provinces with

the output of over 10 million tons were Hebei (152 million tons), Liaoning (90.05 million tons), Inner Mongolia (29.98

million tons), Shanxi (21.03 million tons), Beijing (18.34 million tons), Sichuan (16.92 million tons), Anhui (10.99 million

tons), and Shandong (10.77 million tons). The fixed asset investment in iron ore mining was 28.2 billion yuan in 2005. The

growth rate of 2005 was lower than that in 2004, but it remained at a high level, increasing by 114% on a y-o-y basis. In 2005,

global iron ore consumption was 1.7 billion tons, and China 524 million tons.

In 2006, the original iron ore output was 588 million tons in China, but the output was behind the production. China

imported 326 million tons of iron ore in 2006. For the first time, the import of iron ore was over 300 million tons. The import

amount accounted for 52% in the total consumption amount. In 2006, ocean trade amount of iron ore was 700 million tons in

the world, and the trade amount concerning China accounted for 42%. The world experienced stable growth in 2006, and the

demand for steel was stable. In 2006, steel and iron throughput continued increasing in China, but the increment was

apparently lower than that in 2005. The demand for iron ore increased with 70 million tons than 2005.

The iron ore yield from January to September 2007 was 505 million tons. According to the productivity in the first nine

months, the iron ore yield would reach 675 million tons in 2007, increasing by 15% than 2006. The iron ore import increment

might be 40 million tons in 2008, and the import was predicted to be 370 million tons in 2007. The crude steel turnout would

reach 480 million tons in 2007, increasing by 14% than 2006. A high-level insider predicted that the crude steel turnout

would reach 500 million tons in 2007.

Currently, three largest iron ore suppliers are large-size steel & iron enterprises with their own mines, local key

independent mining enterprises, and local private iron mining enterprises. The first two kinds of manufacturers are owned by

the state, and covered by National Bureau of Statistics. Iron ores exploited by a large number of local private enterprises are

not covered by the National Bureau of Statistics. Therefore, the actual iron ore yield is largely higher than the yield data

issued by the Bureau.

In the future, key factors that influence iron ore demand in China are the change of crude steel production capacity and

the supply of waste steel. From the perspective of waste steel resource amount, Chinese steel and iron accumulation amount

is limited at present. A great deal of waste steel cannot be supplied in a short period (within 15 years). At the same time, the

increment of international waste steel that can be exported to China is also limited.

Manganese, chromium, vanadium and titanium are important alloy elements in steel and iron industry. With the

development of the industry, the demand for these elements dramatically increases. In 1996, Chinese manganese ore

consumption was 5,998,000 tons, including 4,417,000 tons made in China, which accounted for 73.6%. The high-grade

manganese ore import was 1,585,000 tons, accounting for 26.4% in the total consumption. China lacked chromite. In 1996,

Chinese crude chromite yield was 130,000 tons, and the chromium ore consumption was 894,000 tons. The self-support rate

was only 14.5%. The ore import was 764,000 tons, accounting for 85.5% in the total consumption. After the 1970s,

Panzhihua vanadium-titanium magnetite was exploited, so the outputs of vanadium and titanium largely increased. The

output could satisfy the demand of Chinese steel and iron industry, and afford export. It should be noted that China has

low-amount high-quality rutile. The production of high-level titanium pigment could not satisfy the demand, and China has to

import titanium pigment.

2.5.2 Supply and demand status of nonferrous metal minerals

In recent years, Chinese nonferrous metal output and the demand for minerals rapidly increased. The output of ten

nonferrous metals increased from 1,248,000 tons in 1980 to 13,980,000 tons in 2004, increasing by 10 folds. From 2002 to

2005, the output of the ten nonferrous metals has been at the first place in the world. The consumption of copper, aluminium,

lead, zinc, nickel and tin increased from 1,360,000 tons in 1980 to 13,420,000 tons in 2004. China has become the largest

consumption state of the six nonferrous metals.

However, China is very short of raw material. The contradiction between supply and demand of minerals is highlighted.

China increasingly depends on importation. In 2004, trade deficit of nonferrous metals in China was US$9.89B, US$2.75B

larger than 2003. In terms of copper product, the trade deficit was US$1.056B, increasing by 42.7% on a y-o-y basis. Copper

trade deficit was the highest one among nonferrous metals. The import of copper, aluminium, lead, zinc, and nickel was

10.36 million tons, and the foreign currency cost was US5.25B, increasing by 5.4% and 61% than 2003 respectively. The

import of crude copper and refined copper was almost three million tons, and the foreign currency cost was US$2.56B,

increasing by 7.2% and 68.3% respectively. This trend might continue in 2005. From January to May 2005, the import of the

above five minerals was 5.290,000 tons, and the foreign currency cost was US2.88B, increasing by 37% and 58% on a y-o-y

basis respectively. The import of crude copper and refined copper was 1,606,000 tons, and the foreign currency cost was

US$1.46B, increasing by 51.6% and 74.6% respectively.

Copper:

In 2005, Chinese mines produced 650,000 tons of copper, and 742,000 tons in 2004. The average annual growth rate in

10 years was 5.84% (4.12% when the figure of 640,000 tons is used in calculation). The waste copper output was 620,000

tons, and the average annual growth rate was 3.20%. The refined copper output was 2,199,000 tons, and the average annual

growth rate was 8.22%. In 2004, Chinese copper consumption was 5,536,000 tons, and the average annual growth rate in 10

years was 16.47% (See Table 2-1). The growth rates of mine copper output, refined copper output and copper consumption

are much higher than the growth rate of reserve. The increase rate of consumption largely exceeds the increase rates of mine

copper output and waste copper output (the sum of the two is the domestic supply amount). The increase rate of refined

Aluminium

In the first half of 2006, the demand exceeded the supply in terms of alumina in China. Electrolytic aluminium

enterprises were confronted with closedown. After June, domestic electrolytic alumina output drastically increased, and the

price went down and down. Electrolytic aluminium manufacturing became a windfall profit industry. Aluminium price stably

increased, and the profit went up tremendously. However, relevant data showed Chinese alumina industry was not surplus.

The market trend turned uncertain. In 2006, the electrolytic aluminium increment was 1.5 million tons in China, and it was

the highest record in the history. It is predicted that additional two million tons of electrolytic aluminium would be turned out

in 2007. According to the data from National Bureau of Statistics and China Customs, the alumina supply and demand in

China remained the same in 2006. From January to November 2006, alumina output increased by 53.9% on a y-o-y basis,

reaching 11,963,900 tons. The import decreased by 1.1% on a y-o-y basis. Meantime, electrolytic aluminium output increased

to 8,443,000 tons, increasing by 19.6%. According to the alumina supply and demand balance chart, if alumina supply

exceeds demand after June and the price went down largely, alumina supply surplus or inventory is about 200,000 tons as

before. In October, the market is pessimistic on alumina price tendency, and the import reduced by 29.4% than September,

but electrolytic aluminium output in October largely increased. Therefore, alumina supply was much lower than demand.

From the perspective of production, electrolytic aluminium manufacturers should have a reasonable inventory amount, which

should be determined by transportation distance and market supply and demand status. Normally, alumina inventory period

of electrolytic aluminium manufacturers is 15-20 days. If monthly electrolytic aluminium output in 2006 was 760,000 tons,

the inventory of 200,000 tons would support four-day consumption. Alumina inventory of electrolytic aluminium factories

was low. However, the inventory of electrolytic aluminium factories was full.

Henan and Shandong provinces are the largest alumina producing area. The production capacity increased so fast that

alumyte supply in the area was very short. In Henan, exploitable alumyte is less than 200 million tons, and high-grade mines

have been run out. In Shandong, many large-size new alumina factories were built up, while local alumyte mines have been

exhausted in general. Therefore, new alumina factories in Shandong had to import alumyte. With the demand increase, ocean

shipping freight also went up, and imported alumyte cost went up. At the same time, the competition in Chinese alumyte

industry was furious, so the price also largely rose. In 2006, alumyte price doubled in Henan.

The investment in an alumina factory is high, so new alumina factories should not blindly invest, focusing on short-term

profit. Fast fall of alumina price gave many companies a lesson of the market. Foreign alumyte resource is also uncertain due

to some factors. The import from Indonesia accounted for 92% in the total import of alumyte, but the social status in

Indonesia was not stable. The concentration of import channels must upgrade production and operation risks.

Lead and zinc

Mine lead output increased from 660,000 tons in 2000 to 1,140,000 tons in 2005, with the average annual growth rate of

11.5%. Meantime, refined lead output increased from 1,100,000 tons to 2,390,000 tons, with the average annual growth rate

of 16.8%. Although recycled lead output increased from 100,000 tons to 510,000 tons during the period, with the average

annual growth rate of 38%, fast increasing smelting demand could not be satisfied. In 2005, domestic lead raw material

China Business Guide

� 46 �

supported only 69% of smelting demand. The lack of high-grade lead ores was as high as 31%, 740,000 tons of metal

amount.

Zinc sector was better than lead sector. Mine zinc output increased from 1,780,000 tons in 2000 to 2, 548,000 tons in

2005, with the average annual growth rate of 7.44%. Meantime, zinc metal output increased from 1,960,000 tons to

2,776,000 tons, with the average annual growth rate of 7.2%. In 2005, the lack of high-grade zinc ores was 8.2%, 230,000

tons of metal amount. In 2006, Chinese high-grade zinc ore output was 2,142,000 tons, increasing by 17.57% than 2005,

320,000 tons higher than 2005. The increment was mainly contributed by Yunnan, Sichuan, Inner Mongolia, Jiangsu, Jiangxi

and Xinjiang. Concentration zinc output was 3,153,000 tons, increasing by 16.3%, and the increment was 440,000 tons. The

increment was mainly contributed by Henan, Yunnan, Shaanxi and Guangxi. According to China Non-ferrous Metals

Industry Association, China produced 1,490,000 tons of concentration zinc in the first five months in 2007, increasing by

21.67% on a y-o-y basis. The increment was mainly contributed by Inner Mongolia, Guangdong, Liaoning, Yunnan, Guangxi,

and Shaanxi.

From 2000 to 2005, refined lead consumption increased from 640,000 tons to 1,920,000 tons, with the average annual

growth rate of 24.6%. Zinc consumption increased from 1,490,000 tons to 3,250,000 tons, with the average annual growth

rate of 16.9%. The growth rate of lead-zinc consumption was much higher than that of mine production. Resource lack got

increasingly obvious. In 2005, Chinese mines produced 1,140,000 tons of high-grade lead ores (actually 1,100,000 tons after

the loss caused by smelting is deducted), and the amount of second-time resource was 515,000 tons. The total supply amount

was 1,620,000 tons in China, and the lack amount was 300,000 tons. China also lacked zinc. Mines produced 2,250,000 tons

of high-grade zinc ores (actually 2,500,000 tons after the loss caused by smelting is deducted), and there was no second-time

resource available. The total lack amount was 650,000 tons in China. The lack was made up by importation. In 2005, China

imported 1,030,000 tons of high-grade lead ores (actual amount, also applicable to below), 570,000 tons of high-grade zinc

ores, and 80,000 tons of waste zinc material. Due to high-volume importation, a high-level trade deficit occurred in the whole

zinc industry for successive three years. In 2005, the deficit was over US$80M. The lead sector was better than the zinc

sector, but it suffered trade deficit for successive two years. In 2004, the trade deficit was over US$60M. Therefore, lead-zinc

mineral industry was not among the top any longer. High-volume export of lead and zinc metals, in fact, depended on

high-volume import of smelting raw material.

Magnesium

In 2006, the production capacity and output of Chinese magnesium industry continued growing, economic profit grew

fast, and energy saving and industrial restructuring were improved. According to the statistic data of Magnesium Industry

Branch of China Non-ferrous Metals Industry Association, China produced 525,600 tons of original magnesium in 2006,

increasing by 12.40% than 2005. The output was at the top of the world for successive nine years. Shanxi, Ningxia and

Shaanxi were the largest three producing areas, and the outputs were 394,000 tons, 68,300 tons, and 49,700 tons respectively.

The total output in the three provinces was 512,000 tons, accounting for 98% in the total output of China. In 2006, asset

investment in magnesium smelting enterprises above statistical threshold in Chin was 7.308 billion yuan, increasing by

8.43% than 2005. The sales revenue was 8.719 billion yuan, increasing by 24.91% than 2005. Total tax turnover was 471

million yuan, increasing by 48.17% than 2005. Total profit was 122 million yuan, increasing by 63.89% than 2005. The sales

revenue, tax turnover, and profit of magnesium enterprises above statistical threshold were the highest values, so the

economic profit grew dramatically. Sixty-seven small-size magnesium smelting enterprises at below 5,000 tons suffered

losses, accounting for 41.1% of the total 163 magnesium smelting enterprises. Almost 20 enterprises had to stop production

or part-time stop production, and 10-odd enterprises turned to produce calcium.

3 Development of China’s Mining Industry

3.1 Development status of China’s mining industry

3.1.1 General scale of China’s mining industry

The data released by the Ministry of Land and Resources show the overall situation of the development and utilization

of the mineral resources by national mining enterprises in 2006: the number of the mine continued to reduce. By the end of

2006, there were about 126,400 non-oil mining enterprises nationwide, 325 less than that of 2005. Among which, 352

large-scale mines increased, 471 medium-sized mines were increased, and 1,343 small mines were increased, while 2,491

small mines were reduced. In the non-oil mining enterprises, there were 125,800 Mainland mining enterprises, 256 Macao

and Taiwan-invested mining enterprises and 338 foreign-fund mining enterprises.

In 2006, the total ore exploitation of national mining industry was 5.833 billion tons, of which the coal was 1.962 billion

tons, and the iron ore was 424 million tons. The total ore exploitation of national mining industry in 2007 increased 585

million tons than that of 2005, of which the solid minerals increased 551 million tons (coal production increased 123 million

tons).

In 2006, the total industrial output value of various types of mining enterprises reached 670.973 billion yuan. Of which,

the total industrial output value of the non-oil energy resources reached 398.31 billion yuan (total industrial output value of

coal amounted to 396.413 billion yuan), the total industrial output value of ferrous metal mineral amounted to 62.446 billion

yuan, the total industrial output value of non-ferrous minerals amounted to 74.348 billion yuan, the total industrial output

value of precious-metal minerals amounted to 21.515 billion yuan, the total industrial output value of rare minerals, rare earth

and minerals amounted to 1.17 billion yuan, and the total industrial output value of metallurgical auxiliary material amounted

to 5.075 billion yuan. The total industrial output in 2006 increased of 112.126 billion yuan than that of 2005, of which the

total industrial output value of coal increased of 48.995 billion yuan.

In 2006, the number of employees of various types of mining enterprises was 7.983 million people. Among which, there

were 4,426,600 non-oil energy mineral exploitation staff, 413,700 ferrous metal mineral exploitation staff, 427,900

non-ferrous mineral exploitation staff, 201,200 precious-metal mineral exploitation staff, 12,900 rare minerals, rare earth and

mineral exploitation staff and 97,800 metallurgical auxiliary material exploitation staff.

3.1.2 Investment situation of mining industry

In 2006, the accelerated industrialization and urbanization process, particularly the strong momentum in fixed asset

investment and continuous and rapid growth of real estate price of large and medium-sized cities increased the pressure of

supply of energy and mineral raw materials. The Ministry of Land and Resources was actively involved in macroeconomic

control, the improvement and rectification for mineral resources exploitation was constantly deepened, geology and mineral

exploration work was strengthened, and resources "bottleneck" was eased, which effectively supported the economic and

social sustainable, stable and rapid development. Overall, the investment in the mining industry increased rapidly, an increase

of 289 percent; mineral resource exploration and exploitation became increasingly active, the West China raised the upsurge

of mineral exploration; the momentum of mining production was very good, the domestic production and supply capacity of

minerals was enhanced; the minerals price was increased of 10.1%, the rise was gradually reduced and the fluctuation was

aggravated; the minerals trade increased steadily, a growth rate of 20% was maintained.

In 2006, the State Council and relevant departments took various effective measures to strengthen geological work and

mineral exploration, maintain the exploitation order of minerals and provide resources guarantee for the rapid development of

economic construction. The Ministry of Land and Resources carried out and implemented the spirit of the Notice of the State

China Business Guide

� 48 �

Council on Rectifying and Regulating the Mineral Recourse Exploration Order in an All-around Way, Decision of the State

Council on Strengthening the Work of Geology and Some Opinions of the State Council on Promoting the Sound

Development of Coal Industry, carried out the work of rectifying and regulating focusing on coal resource development

continuously, rectified all types of illegal behaviors during the exploitation of mineral resources, regulated the exploitation

activities of mineral resources, established and maintained good order in the development of mineral resources, got

breakthrough on overall promoting the disorder treatment work and the permanent cure work was gradually unfolded,

struck hard on a variety of illegal and irregular acts, overall launched the conformity work of mineral resources, took

effective measures to strengthen geological work, and issued the Provisional Method of Managing Central Geological

Exploration Fund. The Ministry of Finance increased input in mineral resources exploration, encouraged and guided social

capital input, tried its best to establish virtuous recycling mechanism of mineral resource exploration input to constantly

enhance the support capacity of mineral resources for economic and social sustainable development.

In terms of investment in fixed assets, the investment in the mining industry was 416.8 billion yuan, an increase of

28.9% on a year-on-year basis. From the trend of changes over the whole year, after other types of mining industry reached

peak from March to May, their increase showed a decline month by month, however, the increase in non-ferrous metal

mining industry was still too high. The coal mining and coal washing investment was 147.9 billion yuan, an increase of

27.2% on a year-on-year basis; oil and gas exploration industry investment were 181.1 billion yuan, a 23.8% year-on-year

increase; ferrous metal mining industry investment was 35.6 billion yuan, a year-on-year increase of 28.2 percent; the

non-ferrous metal mining industry investment 30.6 billion yuan, a year-on-year increase of 67.8 percent; the non-metallic

mining industry investment was 20.8 billion yuan, a year-on-year increase of 45.2%. In terms of smelting process, the ferrous

metal mining and smelting and rolling processing investment were 224.7 billion yuan, a 2.5 percent year-on-year decline. In

terms of non-ferrous metal smelting and rolling processing investment were 97.4 billion yuan, a year-on-year increase of 27.9

percent; the non-metallic minerals investment was 185.4 billion yuan, a year-on-year increase of 33.0 percent; the oil

processing, coking and nuclear fuel processing industry investment were 94.5 billion yuan, a year-on-year increase of 17.9

percent; the average growth of smelting processing industry was 14.4 percent; and the geologic exploration industry

investment was 5.7 billion yuan, a year-on-year increase of 14.2 percent.

As a whole, downstream smelting processing industry investment remains at a relatively low level of growth, and black

metal mining and smelting and rolling processing investment even show negative growth under the macro-control measures.

The investment in the mining industry slowed down gradually, but was still higher than the national average level. Its

investment increase declined obviously from the first quarter to the fourth quarter; the investment increase speed of upstream

geologic exploration was lower than other areas.

3.1.3 Exploration of minerals and resources reserves

In 2006, Decision of the State Council on Strengthening Geological Work was drafted, the whole country formed

excellent situation for strengthening geological work. The Chinese government and society enhanced their attention and input

on minerals exploration. The geological exploration cost of the whole country was 41.6 billion yuan, a year-on-year increase

of 20.6 percent. Since 2003, its exploration investment has maintained double-digit growth for four consecutive years (Fig.

3-1), of which the state financial appropriation was 4.4 billion yuan, year-on-year increase of 60.1 percent, accounting for

10.5 percent of the total investment in the geological exploration investment, an increase of 2.6 percent over last year.

Chinese government significantly increased mineral exploration inputs to further improve the supply capability of domestic

mineral resources. The growth trend of China’s mineral exploration inputs is in accordance with the world non-fuel mineral

exploration inputs.

The main reserves of mineral resources have a new growth. According to statistics in early 2006, 171 kinds of mineral

resources have been found in china, of which 159 kinds of mineral resources have been proven reserve (one kind of new

mineral product, medical stone). Compared with the previous year, the mineral resources with proven reserves that increased

accounted for 47 percent, the mineral category that reduced accounted for 33 percent and unchanged accounted for 20 percent.

Most of the mineral resources with proven reserves have new growth, and a majority of important mineral resources with

proven reserves has increased.

3.1.4 Mining exploitation and mineral production

The major national mineral production continued to grow fairly rapidly, of which, the increase range of alumna, iron ore,

natural gas, pig iron, steel, crude steel, ten kinds of nonferrous metals and cement production are higher than the national

industrial production. The growth range of some major consumption of steel, copper, aluminum and other industries, such as

automobiles, construction machinery are above 20%, which continue to promote the expansion of minerals demand. China’s

minerals need still maintains rising tendency, and the profits of extractive industry rise dramatically.

The iron ore production increases rapidly. In recent years, the price of iron ore has shown significant advances, which

stimulated the investment and development of domestic iron ore industry and a significant increase in iron ore production. In

2006, China's total output of iron ore and crude steel were 588 million tons and 423 million tons respectively, year-on-year

growth of 38.0% and 18.5%, of which the growth of iron ore output rose 12.7 percent than the same period last year.

Exploitation and utilization of a large number of low-grade and ultra poor iron ore has eased the tension supply situation of

China's iron ore effectively.

Fig. 3-2 Comparison of iron ore output in 2004-2006

In 2006, the total output of 10 kinds of non-ferrous metals amounted to 19.1694 million tons, a year-on-year increase of

17.2 percent. Of which, the year-on-year increase of titanium, and magnesium were as high as 45.2% and 32.2%; and tin,

China Business Guide

� 50 �

aluminum and nickel were 22.7%, 22.1% and 19.7%; and the increase of copper, lead and zinc were 17.8%, 15.3% and

14.8% respectively. Since 2003, the copper price both at home and abroad has stepped into bull market. The growth of

electrolytic aluminum output has been restricted to a certain degree under the macro-control, but the gradual release of

new-built production capacity, it still showed a rapid growth momentum. The output of electrolytic aluminum accumulated to

9.35 million tons, a year-on-year increase of 20.1 percent. The output of alumina was 13.7 million tons, a year-on-year

increase of 59.4 percent. The output of gold was 240.1 tons, a year-on-year increase of 7.2%.

3.1.5 Import and export trade of minerals

In order to protect domestic resources more effectively, control the exportation of high energy consumption, high

pollution, and resource-type commodities, reduce the resource-environmental pressure of economic development, promote

the transformation of the economic growth mode, and protect the national economic security, the State Development and

Reform Commission and other ministries jointly issued Notice of Relative Measures of Controlling of Some High Energy

Consumption, High Pollution and Resource Products Exports, from Jan. 1 2006, the export volume of rare earth and products

would be reduced appropriately; the coke export quotas maintained the level of the previous year; the export of product oil by

the mode of processing trade should be controlled strictly. We should reduce the energy and resource consumption by

technical innovation; extend the industrial chain, improve the structure level, technological content and added value of export

commodities.

In 2006, China's total export-import volume was US$ 380.9 billion, a year-on-year increase of 23.9 percent, a

simultaneous growth with the national trade. Among them, the export amount was US$ 153.61 billion, and import amount

was US$ 230.29 billion, year-on-year growth of 32.6% and 20.2% respectively. The total export-import volume, export

amount and import amount of minerals account for 21.6%, 15.9% and 29.1% of China's total volume of imports and exports,

gross export volume and gross import respectively.

Iron ore imports continue to grow. China imported 326 million tons of iron ore, and the imports were US$ 20.81 billion,

18.6% and 13.3% higher than that in previous year respectively.

The cost of most bulk minerals increased significantly. Compared with the previous year, the average cost of import of

China's oil increased of 22.8%, the copper increased of 81.4% and the alumina increased of 18.3%. While the average cost of

import of iron ore fell 4.5%, and the average cost of coal fell 2.5% (Table 3 - l).

3.1.6 The price of the mineral products

The price of mineral products in 2006 continued to increase, and the growth rate slowed down obviously. The general

price level of mineral products continued to rise in 2006. A 10.1 percent month-on-month increase on average and 0.7 percent

link relative ratio increase. The increase speed of mineral products slowed down in general but its fluctuation was intensified.

In view of the impact of RMB appreciation, the price of domestic energy minerals rose by 4.5% in 2006 actually, the metal

mineral products rose by 23%, and the non-metallic mineral products rose by 3%. The high price of crude oil, copper, gold

and others became the major strength leading the rise in price of China’s mineral products in 2006.

The price of metal mineral rose by 23% year on year in 2006, its increasing range rose by 12 percentage points. The

increasing speed showed negative growth in March, June, October, November and December on a monthly basis. The overall

trends showed the characteristic of “low in earlier period and high in later period”. The price behavior of different types of

minerals was quite different, the price of copper, aluminum and gold increased significantly while the price of iron ore

dropped down sharply.

The iron Ore: the annual average CIF of China's imported iron ore was 63.8 US dollars / ton calculated in US dollars, a

� 51 �

Mining

year-on-year decrease of 4.5%. Converted by a floating exchange rate, it was 511.04 yuan / ton, a year-on-year decrease of

6.5%. The immediate cause of price fall of CIF was the charges decline of International Ocean shipping, which affected the

increase in output of domestic ore directly. Moreover, the domestic ore price was lower than the imported ore price, which

was a "historical-turning-point", and reduced the demand for the imported ore to some extent.

The refined copper: the spot price of nine major cities such as Beijing, broke through 70,000 yuan/ton in May, and will

remain a high price state of 65,000 yuan/ton in the second half year. The annual average price was 62,500 yuan/ton, a

year-on-year increase of 76.1 percent. The rise in price of copper made the cost profit ratio of domestic copper mining

industry in 2006 rose from 15% to 37%, but the cost of copper smelting industry margins grew by only three percentage

points, to 8%. Internationally, the London Metal Exchange cash price for annual average 6721.6 US dollars / ton, an increase

of 82.7%. From the overall trend, the domestic price of refined copper in the international market of the strong linkage

between basic synchronous changes.

Refined aluminum: the average spot price of refined aluminum in nine major cities such as Beijing was 20,750.38 yuan /

ton, a year-on-year increase of 22.3%. With price rise of aluminum, the cost profit ratio of aluminum smelting industry in

2006 increased by 6 percent than that of 2005, which was 17%. Internationally, the average spot price of London Metal

Exchange was US$ 2813.63 / ton, a year-on-year increase of 35.4%.

Gold: the spot price of Shanghai Gold Exchange (Au99.95 gold), the annual average price was 154.93 yuan / g, a

year-on-year increase of 32.3%. The price rise of gold made “stock-market fever” in China. The accumulated turnover of the

Shanghai Gold Exchange in 2006 rose 39% than that of 2005 and the accumulated amount of a deal rose by 85 percent. The

annual average international price was 603.46 US dollars / ounce, a year-on-year increase of 35.7%. In terms of the overall

trends, the domestic gold price changes simultaneously with the international price.

3.1.7 Analysis of future trend of the mining industry

In 2006, China's economy maintained a steady and rapid growth. The high-level operation of fixed asset investment,

industrial production, import and export trade, and other indicators promoted the high-level operation of rapid increase and

price of domestic energy and raw materials production. It was expected that under the impact of macro-control measures, the

GDP growth rate would decline somewhat between 8 to 9% in 2007. The high-speed economic growth has resulted in high

demand for resources.

With the acceleration of industrialization and urbanization process, and the continuous development and improvement of

infrastructure, the investment in fixed assets will remain at a relatively high level, thus the growth in demand for resources

products is still maintained. Study on the recent increase trend of investment in fixed assets, the growth rate has maintained

more than 20 percent. Study on the future development trend, various structural factors (assessment mechanism, investment

impetus and attracting investment, etc.) affecting the rapid growth of investment still exist. The monetary condition will be

loose for its commitments to the WTO and the own funds of enterprises are relatively adequate in recent years, therefore, the

investment will continue to maintain a growth momentum. It is expected that under the influence of macro-control measures,

the growth rate of investment in fixed assets in 2007 will further decline, but will remain at the high level of more than 20%.

The rapid growth of fixed asset investment is bound to exacerbate the rapid growth rate of resource consumption.

In addition, the change of China's consumption structure will further promote the upgrading of the industrial structure.

The per capita GDP in Beijing, Shanghai and other major cities has already reached the upper level of developed countries,

and basically solved the food and clothing needs for “eat, wear and use”, and walk towards the process of a well-off society

that meet the needs of “housing and transport”. In the pursuit of “a comfortable life”, housing and automobile and others are

gradually becoming the main line and hot of China's consumption structure upgrading, which will maintain a huge demand

for mineral resources. Driven by basic housing demand and improvement demand, the real estate investment will maintain a

sustained growth momentum, and will further promote the demand growth of construction site, steel, cement, non-ferrous

metals, chemical products, energy and raw materials such as coal.

The growth of output of steel, copper, aluminum, cement, and other major minerals will fall. From November 2003, the

investment in steel, electrolytic aluminum, cement, and other overheated industries was controlled and regulated by Chinese

China Business Guide

� 52 �

government, the investment in copper smelting industry was also controlled at the end of 2005 and the export tax rate was

also adjusted. It was expected that the growth of output of steel, electrolytic aluminum and cement will fall significantly in

2007. It still has 2-3 rise period for copper smelting capacity, but its growth rate will be no more than that of 2006.

In recent years, the increases in price of iron ore has promoted the domestic enterprises’ enthusiasm for exploitation of

iron ore, especially for the low-grade iron ore, which made the iron ore production rise sharply, thus easing the tense supply

situation at domestic effectively. Study on China’s production of iron ore in 2006, the up-scale enterprises are provided with

annual production of 660 million tons. It was expected that the domestic iron ore would remain the growth rate of more than

20 percent in 2007. China's major steel industries will maintain rapid growth. There will be no major changes for the strong

demand of steel. It was expected China’s steel output would rose 11 percent in 2007. In fact, in terms of world’s iron ore

resources, there are abundant resources on the whole, which can fully meet the growing demand in the world. As the newly

increased production capacity of the international iron ore has been put into operation as well as the effect of China's

rectification for iron ore circulation order has become apparent, the domestic conflict between supply and demand will be

eased continuously. It is expected that the intense supply of global iron ore will come to its end, and China's continuous

growth demand for imported iron ore will be restricted. The production capacity of project under construction of the steel

sector is 50% of the current capacity, and is expected to be in an over supply situation.

The price of China’s minerals fluctuates with the changes of domestic demand and the leading role of the international

market. Under the background of sustained and stable economic growth of China in 2007, the domestic minerals price rise

will tend to slow down in the process of steady growth, and the overall level can be controlled in a more moderate increase

range. Its price increase was slightly lower than in 2006. Based on the research for the factors affecting the market supply

changes, consulting to price trend in the past three years, and using the time series analysis method to forecast, it was

expected that the whole country’s minerals price would keep the development trend of “steady growth” in 2007.

The forecast is mainly based on the following three points. First, sustained and rapid economic growth will be conducive

to maintaining the growth of demand for minerals. Despite the demand growth rate for minerals will be slowed down, the

demand remains high, which would support the national mineral price goes up in 2007. Second, the in-depth reform of

resource price will promote the development of future mineral price. The main target of reform is oil, natural gas, coal,

electricity, water and land resources closely related to the national and social development, the long-term low price level of

which has resulted in the serious waste of resources and the extensive growth pattern. The government will accelerate the

reform of resources product price in 2007. The most direct effect of the reform is the rise in price, and the production cost and

price of other minerals will be promoted as well. Third, the excess capacity will become a prominent factor restraining the

price rise of mineral products. The high energy-consumption projects, such as steel, cement, electrolytic aluminum, ferroalloy,

coke, calcium carbide, automobile, copper smelting, lead smelting and zinc smelting, which were large-scale constructed a

few years ago, a considerable portion of which have been put into operation in 2007. If the adjustment measures were not

adopted timely for these related 10 industries, surplus production capacity would be likely to arise, which would give rise to

price diving possibly.

As above-mentioned, the factors promoting and restraining the rise in domestic minerals price are compossible in 2007,

however, the promotion role are bigger than the restraining role. It was expected that the price level of domestic market

would remain upward trend as a whole. The overall level will increase about 10%, and the price trend of each mineral type is

different from each other.

It is anticipated that the annual average CIF of imported iron ore will be less than 65 US dollars per ton. The new

international long-term iron ore contract price has been formed in fiscal year 2007. The standard powder ore price is 0.721

US dollars / ton, a 9.5% increase than in 2006. But looking back at the past, even after the long-term contract price rose 71.5

percent in 2005, China's CIF of imported iron ore still maintained a downward trend at the end of 2006, which showed that

China's iron ore supply and demand situation had changed. On the one hand, the continuous operation of the macro-control

policy made the monthly output of crude steel declined month by month. The output of domestic iron ore increased greatly,

which was conducive to reducing the demand for imported iron ore. On the other hand, the international spot supply

increased, which also made the ore price went down. Therefore, the CIF of iron ore may still show a downward trend in

2007.

Mining

The copper price will rise. The increase production of domestic copper is limited currently, while the refining capacity is

in excess seriously. The supply of smelting enterprises’ raw material is difficult to be maintained continuously, which will

make the domestic copper continue show big supply gap, and the tight supply and demand situation has been in the high

position, its uprising space is not very great, and even the possibility of a high drop would appear under the influence of

market speculation.

The aluminum prices will fall back. First, the domestic alumina price went down from 6,000 yuan / ton to 2,400 yuan /

ton in less than half a year from the second half year of 2006, and returned to the normal price level. The production cost of

electrolytic aluminum also returned to its normal level. Second, the export tax of electrolytic aluminum is 15%, which further

restrain the export of domestic electrolytic aluminum, and increase the domestic sales pressure on the aluminum market to a

certain extent. The domestic electrolytic aluminum price is likely to be declined. Third, the production capacity of electrolytic

aluminum is overmuch seriously.

The Gold price will remain high level. The investment demand and jewelry demand for gold stimulated the gold price

rose to a new high in 26 years. Under the policy background of controlling the scale of investment in fixed assets, the surplus

part of the investment will be diverted to the gold field. Therefore, it was estimated that the gold investment demand would

rise in 2007. With the improvement of people’s living standards, the consumption demand for gold is expected to rise as well.

Therefore, the price of gold in 2007 is expected to remain high.

3.2 Market tend of major industries

3.2.1 Analysis on iron ore market trend

In recent years, affected by the global growth in demand for iron ore, particularly the rapid growth of China's demand

for iron ore, the international iron ore market is facing tight supply situation, and ore price went up for four consecutive years.

The demand exceeding supply of ore market is mainly due to the low price of the international ore in early days, and the

global mining enterprises’ investment for ore is weak, which cause the interim production capacity shortfall. In fact, the

current global iron ore resources are very rich and many of the resources have not been fully developed. According to the

relevant statistics, there are more than 140 billion tons of iron ore economic reserves in the world currently, which are mainly

distributed in Russia, Brazil, China, Canada, Australia, India, the United States and other countries and regions. In recent

years, the world's three major ore suppliers have been actively invested in expanding production capacity, while the

companies in India, Chile, South Africa, Russia, and other countries are also carrying out the expansion. CVRD of Brazil

Brucutu new mines in October 2006 operational, the mine iron ore production after the commencement of the annual output

will reach all 30 million tons. Rio Tinto Group is a subsidiary of Hamersley (Hamersley) companies and Norbu River (Robe)

company expansion, it is estimated that in 2007 its capacity to 170 million tons. BHP Billiton (BHP) has invested 1.5 billion

US dollars to upgrade its C-segment or after the mining area to 42 million tons, the second half of 2006 production. 2006

BHP's iron ore production will reach 118 million tons by 2007 to reach an annual output of 129 million tons. Overall, in 2006

the three major ore giants, as well as India and other ores of iron ore exporting countries to increase total production capacity

in about 75 million tons, which effectively guarantee the international iron ore supply.

In terms of the output of iron ore, the global iron ore production has been around 1 billion tons a few years before and

after 200. The global ore output was 10.9 million tons in 2002. With the substantial growth of global steel production in

recent years, and the continuous growth of global iron ore production, the global iron ore output is expected to exceed 1.4

billion tons in 2006. China, Brazil, Australia, Russia, Ukraine, India, the United States, Canada, South Africa and Sweden are

the world's top ten iron ore producing countries, the total iron ore output of these 10 countries accountfor about 90 percent of

the world's total, of which China is the world's largest iron ore producer.

In terms of the iron ore trade, the global iron ore trade volume also has increased rapidly with the growth of China's

import demand in recent years. The global iron ore trade volume was nearly 500 million tons in 2001, while the global iron

ore trade volume is expected to reach 700 million tons in 2006, an increase of 200 million tons than in 2001, which is the

China Business Guide

� 54 �

mainly supplied to China. The world's major iron ore exporters are Australia, Brazil, India, South Africa and other countries,

and the annual iron ore export volume of the above four countries accounts for 85% of the global exports. These exporting

countries have abundant iron ore reserves, and India’s iron ore export growth over the past few years is very fast. The world’s

major ore importing countries include China, Japan, South Korea, as well as the United States and some EU countries, of

which China is the world's largest importer of iron ore imports with more than one-third of global export. China’s adjacent

countries---Japan and Korea are also major importer of iron ore. In terms of the world's major iron ore imports, in addition to

China and the United States, other major importing countries’ production of pig iron almost depend on the iron ore imports.

In recent years, China's consumption of iron ore has increased rapidly with China's rapid growth in pig iron production.

China has become the world's largest consumer of iron ore currently. China’s pig iron output was 171 million tons in 2002

and 330 million tons in 2005, and nearly doubled that of 2002. China pig iron output is expected to reach more than 400

million tons in 2006, a year-on-year increase of 21 percent---70 million tons more than the previous year. Calculated by

production of one-ton pig iron consumes 1.55 tons of 66% finished grade ore, then the annual domestic consumption of

finished iron ore is about 620 million tons in 2006. In view of domestic enterprises’ expansion of production capacity for iron

ore, the iron ore reserves should be increased; the annual actual need for finished iron ore is estimated to 635 million tons, an

increase of 120 million tons than the precious year. It is expected that China's iron ore consumption will account over 46% of

the global total iron ore consumption.

Table 3-2 The demand of domestic finished iron ore

Unit: 0.1 billion

Year Crude iron output Increased as compared with the previous year

Iron ore demand volume Increased as compared with the previous year

Judging from the domestic iron ore production situation, many private small mine areas are not included in the range of

national ore output. Therefore, the statistical data of national ore output is not accurate. For example, according to national

statistics, China’s crude ore output was 420 million tons in 2005, up 25 percent from the previous year. If the average grade

of crude ore is at 30 percent, one-ton finished ore need to consume around 2.4 tons of crude ore, then the crude ore output can

be concerted into 175 million tons of finished ore in 2005. According to the domestic demand for iron ore, it can be roughly

estimated that the domestic finished iron ore output should be about 240 million tons in 2005, 65 million tons more than the

data of national statistics, which is the finished ore output not included in the national statistics. Similarly, China’s crude ore

output was 580 million tons in 2006, up 38 percent from the previous year and 242 million tons of finished iron ore by

conversion rate. While it was expected that the domestic demand for finished iron ore was about 630 million tons at that year,

it can be leaned that the domestic finished iron ore was about 310 million tons minus the imports, namely 68 million tons of

finished ore output are not included in the national statistics, accounting for more than 20 percent of the total domestic

finished ore output.

At present, China's retained iron ore reserves is about 46 billion tons, of which 97.5 percent is low grade iron ore, the

high-grade iron ore that the average iron grade content is above 55% and can be directly fed into the furnace account for only

2.5% of the national reserves. While the high-grade iron ore that forms a certain scale and can be mined separately is much

less. At present, China's iron ore reserves are concentrated in Anshan – East Hebei Province - Beijing, Panzhihua - Xichang,

Wutai - Lanxian, Ningwu- Luzong, and other mine areas. In terms of the geological distribution, the Northeast, North China's

iron ore reserves are more than 10 billion tons, followed by the Southwest region of 8.3 billion tons; reserves in East China

are 6.5 billion tons; and reserves in South Central are 4.5 billion tons. Before 2002, the development for China's iron ore

resources exploration is basically in the state of stagnation, which made the domestic ore output increased very slow. After

2002, with the rapid increase of domestic output of pig iron, the domestic ore production capacity was unable to meet the

domestic demand, leading domestic ore price soaring, and the highest price has amounted to 1,000 yuan / ton. Stimulated by

the price soaring in the ore market in recent years, the domestic mining enterprises have shown the large expansion trends,

� 55 �

Mining

including many civil mining areas increased rapidly and the domestic ore production is significantly increased. According to

the National Statistical data, China’s ore output rose by 22 percent year-on-year in 2004, and in 2004 it was an increase of 25

percent. While in Jan.-Sep. 2006, it reached 37 percent. Although the coverage of national statistics is limited and the date for

growth has difference with the actual data, it can be seen that from the beginning of 2004, China's ore output growth has

accelerated noticeably from the change of the above growth rate. Calculated according to our estimated production, China’s

ore output year-on-year growth rate was 21% in 2004, and was 23% in 2005. The year-on-year increase of domestic ore

output was as high as 29% in 2006. In terms of the domestic ore increment, the domestic finished ore was 15 million tons in

2003, increased of 37 million tons in 2004, and up to 45 million tons in 2005. It is expected that the output will reach 70

million tons in 2006. It can be said that the current domestic ore production has entered release period, which is favorable for

easing the shortage of domestic supply of iron ore.

In terms of the iron ore import, the insufficient domestic supply of ore has stimulated China's rapid growth for imports

of ore in recent years. China's annual growth rate of iron ore import has been more than 20 percent since 2000. In 2003,

China imported 148 million tons of iron ore, 208 million tons in 2004 and 275 million tons in 2005. It is expected that China

will import 325 million tons of iron ore in 2006, 50 million tons more than 2005.

Table 3-3 China iron ore import from 2000 to 2006

Unit：10,000 tons

Since 2003, China has become the world largest iron ore importing country and its proportion of global iron ore

trade has increased year by year.

Chin’s iron ore resource per capita is only 42% of the world per capita. In recent years, the growth rate of pig iron, steel

and rolled steel output is faster than the growth rate of iron ore output. China's iron ore production could not meet domestic

demand, leading to its dependence on the international market has increased daily. Along with the industrial upgrading,

China's steel industry started to become more dependent on the high-grade iron ore produced in Brazil, Australia and India.

The "grade" become a keyword for raw materials. The standard grade for imported ore is 64.5%. Brazil’s high-grade iron ore

reserves are 11 billion tons, and the average grade of iron ore is 58.56%, and the highest grade can reach 70%. While the

average grade of the domestic iron ore is only 32.7%, equivalent to only half of the above imported ore. Some domestic

enterprises, such as Angang, Panzhihua Iron and Steel Corporation, although they have some large-scale mines, still need to

use imported iron ore. These iron and steel groups need to import the iron ore that the grade is above 65 percent. In terms of

the volume, China's imported iron ore volume exceeded Europe and Japan in 2003 for the first time, and imported 275

million tons of iron ore in 2005. The domestic large-scale iron and steel groups’ dependence on the imported ore is 53.3

percent. In 2006, China's total imports of iron ore were 326 million tons, a 18.6 percent growth as compared with 2005. In the

first half of 2007, China's foreign trade imported iron ore is 190 million tons, still an increase of 8%. According to the

statistics of China Iron and Steel Association, China's dependence on imported iron ore is 54.84% the first quarter of this year,

a 3.74 percent increase as compared to a increase of 51.1% last year. The insiders’ expectation for reducing dependence on

the imported ore is not fulfilled. Besides, its dependence on the imported ore will “rise in stead of fall”. Under the

background that the import also maintains a high rate of growth, the effect of international iron ore for domestic steel

production will be even bigger. This is the reason why China's passive position of “competition between the pre and steel” is

difficult to be changed in the short term.

In 2004 and 2005, China's increment for ore import was almost equivalent to the global trade growth, and China is

expected to import volume of ore will account for 46 percent of the world trade. The major iron ore importing countries for

China Business Guide

� 56 �

China are Australia, Brazil, India, South Africa and other countries. Among which, Australia is one of China's largest iron ore

exporting country, followed by India and Brazil, and South Africa takes the fourth place. At the same time, driven by China's

strong demand growth for imported ore, a number of American States and neighboring countries also increased their export

of iron ore to China in recent years, such as Kazakhstan, Peru, Canada, Russia, Venezuela, Chile, Indonesia, North Korea,

and Ukraine, etc, whose iron ore exports to China exceeded more than 1 million tons.

In 2006, China's total import volume of ore was 326.3 million tons, up 18.6 percent from 2005. The number of mine

contract signed by China's leading steel groups increased in 2006, and the majority of which were the renewal of the

contracts. Ma Steel signed a contract with CVRD on iron ore supply in 2007-2013 of 7.3 million tons / year (8.3 million tons

/ year from 2009); Beitai Iron and Steel Group signed a contract with CVRD on iron ore supply in 2007-2031 of 4.2 million

tons / year. These steel plants’ contract with CVRD can be traced back to 2003. In Australia, FMG continue to expand its

market sharesin China, and signed contracts with nine steel groups of China, including Jinan Steel, Laiwu Steel and Shagang

Group, etc, the total output was about 9.4 million tons / year. Wuhan Iron and Steel Company also decided to purchase 4.4%

initial yield of FMG, and would purchase up to 2 million tons / year of iron ore in 10 years. In addition, in order to ensure

long-term and stable supply of iron ore and reduce the purchase costs, China’s steel mills will continue to extend the

imported ore purchasing channels. Jinan Steel has reached a supply agreement with India DEMPO in 2007-2010, and Fujian

Sanming Steel has reached a supply agreement with Ukraine Ferrexpo for pellet for three years.

Table 3-4 China’s imported ore from foreign countries in 2004-2005

The domestic ore market in 2006 kept the stable operation status and the ore price did not show sharp rise and fall as

previous years. It mainly due to the rapid growth of domestic ore output that played an important role for balancing the

domestic ore price.

The domestic ore price continued to rise in 2003. During this period, the domestic mining enterprises’ preliminary input

was inadequate and resulted in the output growth was restricted, while the domestic steel output maintained a rapid growth in

the same period, so the contradiction between supply and demand was abvious, and the ore price rose from 300 yuan/ ton to

950 yuan / ton. In 2004-2005, the domestic ore market by the domestic steel market showed big price fluctuations as affected

by the price fluctuations of steel market, and the fluctuations was in the range of 500-900 yuan /ton. In 2006, the domestic

ore price maintained the steady operation status, price fluctuations were within 100 yuan / ton throughout the whole year. The

stable operation of ore price showed that the domestic ore market in 2006 has achieve a balance of supply and demand, which

was mainly due to the rapid production increase of ore output, and the tension between the demand and supply of ore was

greatly improved. Judging from the annual average price, the average price of the domestic ore was 665 yuan / ton in 2006,

the average price dropped by 70 yuan / ton as compared with 735 yuan / ton in 2005, and a decrease of 115 yuan / ton as

compared with 780 yuan / ton in 2004 than the 780 yuan / ton, which showed drop tendency of current ore price.

Judging from the imported ore price, the international price of ore has presented the rise condition in recent years. The

three big ore companies have increased the price of iron ore consecutively from 2003 to 2006, and the price increased of 71%

in 2005. On December 21, 2006, Baosteel announced that it had reached an agreement with Brazil CVRD. CVRD's fine ore

price will rise by 9.5% as compared with 2006 in 2007. This shows that China still seems to lack confidence in the

international negotiating table. In 2005, the iron ore price in the international market rose by 71.5 percent, and continued to

rise by 19% in 2006. Although China's iron ore import volume was about 3.25 million tons with a year-on-year increase of

18.2%, the growth rate was much lower than the average growth rate of 30 percent since 2003. In recent years, reasons for

the international ore price rise include: the international ore demand continued to increase; the US dollar continued to tend to

fall; and three major ore companies controlled nearly 80% of the global ore trade volume. At the same time, another

� 57 �

Mining

important reason for the price rise of ore is that China's enterprises signed less long-term supply contracts with foreign ore

suppliers and are lacking in long-term and stable supply, and many enterprises must import ore through spot market, which

led to the situation of bid up and ore price in the spot market price was much higher than the long-term supply price.

However, the growth rate of China’s imported ore amount was lower than the growth rate of iron ore amount in 2006. The

average price of China's imported iron ore in the first nine months was 62.7 US dollars / ton, a year-on-year decrease of 7.2

percent. Of which, the average price of India’s imported iron ore was 63.4 US dollars / ton, a year-on-year decrease of 20

percent, 7 US dollars/ton lower than the price of Brazil, and the price gap with Australia narrowed down from 27 US dollars /

ton to 8 US dollars / ton in March last year, which showed that the international ore supply and demand relationship was

easing. The ore price of 2007 is under negotiation. With the Baosteel signed price agreement with the international giant ore

group, the ore price will rose by 9.5% again in 2007, but the main reason for rising was not due to the short supply, but was

caused by sustained depreciation of US dollar. Ar present, the global supply and demand market of iron ore is undergoing

important changes, ant the supply and demand of iron ore has shifted from the tense stage into balance stage.

Table 3-5 Demand and degree of self-sufficiency of China’s iron ore

Year Demand Import volume Domestic output Degree of

self-sufficiency 2006 6.3 3.2 3.1 49% 2005 5.15 2.75 2.4 47% 2004 4 2.08 1.92 48% 2003 3.2 1.48 1.72 54% 2002 2.7 1.12 1.58 59%

The annual consumption of China’s iron ore has been increased continuously and the annual increment has been

increased as well. The iron ore demand growth is strong. The strong growth of iron ore makes the domestic iron ore cannot

meet with the demand in the short term and the demand growth for imported iron ore is faster. China’s self-sufficiency of iron

ore has shown a declining tendency in recent years. China’s iron ore self-sufficiency dropped from 64% in 2000 to 47% in

2005 (see the above table, unit: 0.1 billion ton). From 2006, along with the expansion of domestic mining enterprises, the

domestic iron ore production capacity also began to expand, which was of great significance to level off China’s

self-sufficiency of iron ore. Although China’s import demand for iron ore is still in the increasing period in recent years,

along with the slow down of domestic pig iron output, the continuous sharp drop of China’s self-sufficiency of iron ore will

be changed obviously.

It is expected that the imported iron ore total amount is about 370 million tons in 2007, an increase of about 44 million

tons than in 2006 and an increase of 42 percent. The gross amount of domestic iron ore is about 805 million tons in 2007, an

increase of 15.5 percent over last year. The iron ore resource shows tense situation relatively.

3.2.2 Analysis on copper market trend

China’s copper market in 2006 witnessed the process of a decline from summit, and dramatic oscillation. After the

Spring Festival, stimulated by the price rise in the international market, the domestic forward and spot copper price rose

sharply for a record of 70,000 yuan. After entering the second half of 2006, the copper price showed downward trend affected

by a variety of factors. To the end of November, the electrolytic copper price in the main market was about 65,000 yuan in

general, a decline more than the first half year.

China’s copper price dropped sharply in 2006 and showed following four characteristics:

The domestic consumption was declined. In 2006, the domestic copper consumption was declined due to the high price.

In terms of the copper consumption indicator, the accumulative copper output was 4.576 million tons in the first 10 months, a

year-on-year increase of only 6.6 percent over last year, and a fallback of 4 percent over the previous year. It is estimated that

total annula copper output is about 5.5 million tons, an increase of about 6% and is still in the lower level.

A sharp increase in copper export and a significant reduction in import. According to the statistics by customs, from Jan.

to Oct., the total accumulative copper (including copper alloy, the same below) export volume was 23.9 million tons, and was

2.8 times of the same period last year. Under the effect of the suppression measures issued by the State, it is expected that the

China Business Guide

� 58 �

export volume of copper will fall back after two months, but the annual copper exports will reach 250,000 tons, an increase

of nearly 50 percent from last year; and the imported copper was 779,000 tons, a year-on-year decrease of 37.7% from last

year. It is expected that the annual import volume is about 950,000 tons, about 34 percent decline. China's sharp increase in

copper export and the significant reduction in import gave rise to the "China factor" change to a positive direction in the

international copper market. The copper market has big influence on the global supply-demand relationship, which also

become one of the important factors that the international fund withdrew from the copper market since the second half year.

Although China’s export speed of copper increased at an alarming rate in 2006, its rapid increase of export volume is

only temporary for the limited domestic resources, as well as under the influence of suppression measures by relevant

departments, and has strong staged characteristics. In the long term, the fact that China’s copper supply heavily relies on

imports of copper will be difficult to change.

The newly increased resources show downward trend. In recent years, under the regulations of strong demand and

continuous rise in price, the investment in copper smelting processing has increased rapidly, and led to the expansion of

newly increased production capacity. In 2005, the domestic copper output rose by 23 percent, and the domestic output hit

another new high this year. From Jan. to Oct., the copper output was 2.41 million tons, a year-on-year increase of 20%. It is

estimated that total annual copper output will be about 2.9 million tons, about 15 percent growth over last year and another

double-digit growth. However, the newly increased resources show downward trend due to the sharp decline in imports.

According to the data of Ministry of Commerce of Distributing Monitoring Form Reporting System of Important Means of

Production, from Jan. to Oct., the newly increased resources of copper were 3.19 million tons, a-year-on-year decrease of 2.1

percent. It is estimated that newly increased resource of copper will be no more than 3.9 million tons, a slight decrease over

the previous year. However, if adding the delivery resources of the State Reserve Bureau, the annual supply of copper has

increased over the previous year. According to the above-mentioned two estimates, the overall relation between supply and

demand of copper was balanced in 2006.

China’s copper supply will continue to increase and the consumption will fall back in 2007. The price rise lasts for

several years will come to its end. The coexisting of market and other factors will cause great fluctuations.

The newly increased production capacity continues to expand and the supply pressure is huge. One of the pressures is

the expansion of newly increased production capacity. Over the past three years, China’s copper processing capacity has

entered a large-scale growth period and expansion period, with an average annual growth rate of above 20%, far outstripping

the previous level of growth. In 2007, China's annual copper output will reach or close to 3.2 million tons if calculating

according to the growth rate of 10%. Second, the export dropped significantly. China has promulgated suppression measures

such as raising export tariffs on copper products, which will lead to a greater level of export fallback- the link relative ratio of

copper export volume dropped by more than 5% in this October. Third, the import volume will rise will rise in stead of drop.

At present, China's annual import of copper is less than 1 million tons, the decrease space has been narrowed significantly.

With the expansion of economic scale and the development of processing industries, as well as the resupply needs of

enterprises, it is expected that China’s copper import volume will be over 1 million tons in 2007. Fourth, there was a large

amount of carry-over stock over the previous year. According to the market system of “buying commodities with rising prices

rather than those failing prices” and historical experience, the price rises to highest rate is also the day when the stock is the

most. Currently, the dominant stock of Shanghai Futures Exchange has reached 30,000 tons, and this recessive and dominant

stock may become a new year's supply sources.

As mentioned above, it is expected that the copper supply available will reach or exceed 4.5 million tons in 2007, of

which the newly increased resources will reach 4.4 million tons, 12% more than last year. The downward trend is turned

completely.

The growth in demand will not change, but the growth rate will be weakened. In terms of the macro pattern of the New

Year, despite the global economic growth will not have a fundamental reversal in 2007, copper consumption continues to

maintain the growth pattern, but the growth rate will fall back correspondingly. First, the two engines driving the global

economic growth currently - economic growth of China and US will slow down in 2007. In someone’s opinion, under the

impact of real estate bubble burst in the United States and Europe, the global economy is likely to fall into recession. Second,

China's copper exports will have a greater reduction, and the exports volume is expected to less than half of the previous year

� 59 �

Mining

in 2007. The remaining resources will be sold to the domestic market. Third, the “blowout like” growth in consumption of

copper products is difficult to reproduce. Under this influence, it is expected that China’s copper consumption (including

exports) will be more than 4 million tons, 5% more than last year. If there is no accident, the relationship between supply and

demand will be balanced.

Generally speaking, the continuous price rise of China's copper for many years will come to an end in 2007. The copper

price will show large fluctuation trend throughout the whole year. In addition to the market supply-demand relationship

changes from tension to balance, the ending of the commodity bull market is also the main factor ending the price rise, and

the copper market is facing great risk of reversal. Up to now, the price of global oil, coal, copper, rubber, and other primary

products has entered the high-risk state generally. It is predicted by some institutions that the oil price in the international

market will fall to 50 US dollars / barrel below. If this forecast is realized, minerals including copper products, will drop

down substantially.

The pressure of RMB appreciation is enlarged. The trade surplus has continued to increase and the foreign exchange

reserve has increased quickly, which enlarged the appreciation pressure for RMB. It is predicted that the RMB exchange rate

will remain upward tendency in 2007 and the import cost of the copper and furnace will be reduced accordingly.

3.2.3 Analysis on aluminum market trend

Since 2006, the international aluminum price has risen from about 2100 US dollars / ton in the beginning of the year to

3,000 US dollars / ton in May, although a slight fall back afterwards, but has maintained at 2,400 US dollars / ton. Entering

the fourth quarter, the price gradually increased to 2700 US dollars / ton, and the international aluminum average price was

about 2,500 US dollars / ton, up 34 percent over the previous year, reaching the highest point in ten years. Affected by the

international aluminum price rise, the domestic market aluminum price also rose, but a relatively small increase, rising from

19,500 yuan / ton in the beginning of the year to 21,000- 22,000 yuan / ton currently, about 10% increase.

According to the preliminary analysis, main factors promoting the international aluminum price rise are: first, the fund

speculation promoted the overall price of non-ferrous metals to rise. The international funds’ intervention in the non-ferrous

metals futures market in 2006 made the price of copper, nickel, zinc and others get the highest price in history, which led the

price rise of non-ferrous metals including the aluminum; Second, the global aluminum consumption remaining growth and

brisk market demand. Since 2006, with the steady growth of the world economy, the global aluminium consumption is

expected to increase 4.8 percent over the previous year, reaching 33.4 million tons, slightly higher than the annual output of

aluminum; Third, China's export reduction. In early 2006, China's electrolytic aluminum exports began to levy a 5 percent

export tariff, and further increased to 15% in November, therefore, the exports were inhibited. From Jan. to Oct., the total

domestic electrolytic aluminum export volume was 720,000 tons, a year-on-year decrease of 26.9 percent, and the supply of

electrolytic aluminum on international market was decreased to a certain extent.

Contrary to the price rise of electrolytic aluminum, the price of alumina went down from about 6,000 yuan / ton quickly

to the current 2,400 yuan / ton in less than half a year since the second half year of 2006 and returned to normal price level.

Compared with the first half of 2006, the cost of alumina of current domestic electrolytic aluminum enterprises is reduced

greatly, but the electrolytic aluminum price remains high level, and the product profitability was significantly increased.

From the situation of the past few years, the global aluminum supply and demand are basically in balance due to global

aluminum consumption and production growth. China is the largest electrolytic aluminum production and consumption

country, the domestic aluminum supply-demand change has great impact on the stability of global market. In 2006, it is

expected that the domestic aluminum production will increased of 17.8 percent to 9.2 million tons. The apparent consumption

increased of 20 percent to 8.5 million tons. In 2007, the domestic aluminum output growth is expected to about 14% to 10.5

million tons, and the apparent consumption increased of 13 percent to 9.6 million tons. According to the initial judgment, just

from the supply-demand change in 2007, no major changes will take place, which provide stability for the international

aluminum price.

In order to restrict the excessive development of industries engaging in “high energy consumption, high pollution and

resource products”, the Chinese government has promulgated a series of control policies and measures in recent years. The

China Business Guide

� 60 �

State Council issued Notice of Fast Promoting the Structural Adjustment in Overproduction Industries; relevant departments

issued the guidance of structural adjustment on the electrolytic aluminum industry, and access threshold of the industry in

environmental protection, land, energy consumption and scale were improved; brought down even cancelled the export rebate

rate of most of the non-ferrous metal products; the National Development and Reform Commission introduced the Access

Criterion of Lead and Zinc Industry in March this year. From November 1, 2006, the Customs Tariff Commission of the State

Council regulated the provisional export tax rates of primary products of copper, nickel, electrolytic aluminum totaled 11

non-ferrous metals. The provisional tax rate is 15 percent. The export tax rates of these products were 5% to 10%.

These targeted macro-control policies have achieved remarkable results. At present, the copper smelting investment has

reduced and the planned investment in new projects has dropped sharply, but the investment in the nonferrous metals industry

is still not optimistic generally but the with strong growth momentum. In 2006, the investment in fixed assets of China’s

nonferrous metal industry was 118.08 billion yuan, up 36.44 percent, of which the investment in refining was 63.6 billion

yuan, accounting for more than half of the whole non-ferrous industry. National Bureau of Statistics has disclosed that the

investment in fixed assets of nonferrous metal industry substantial increased of 56.4% in the first two months of this year, far

higher than China's fixed asset investment growth of 23.4%. In particular, it is worth noting that the electrolytic aluminum

investment may rebound under the impact of high aluminum price. Many projects are being implemented in secret; but the

lead and zinc smelting industry investment remains high and the production capacity will be further expanded.

At the same time, the export in large amount of high-energy consumption, high pollution and resource products has not

been inhibited fundamentally. Aluminum and zinc are China's largest export variety of non-ferrous metal industry. Although

the export tariffs were increased, China's export of aluminum ingots was still as high as 1.212 million tons in 2006, a slight

decrease of 8% compared with 2005. However, because the export of a lot of aluminum products has tax rebates, some part

of electrolytic aluminum is exported in the form of aluminum products after rough cut, resulting in 1.24 million tons of

aluminum exports, a year-on-year increase of 74.3%.

3.2.4 Analysis on gold market trend

In 2006, China's gold output was 240.078 tons from January to December this year. Compared with the same period last

year, the gold output increased of 16.028 tons, up 7.15 percent. The gold mining enterprises’ (finished gold and gold) mineral

gold was 179.848 tons, up 0.72 percent from the same period last year. The mineral gold output proportion of various

provinces (regions) are: Shandong---25.03%, Henan---13.74%, Fujian---7.99%, Liaoning---5.70%, Hunan---5.46%,

Shaanxi---5.24%, Hebei---4.82%, Xinjiang---3.56%, Gansu---3.51%, Guizhou---3.48%; the mineral gold output of the above

the key gold producing provinces (regions) account for about 78.53% of the national output, and other provinces account for

about 21.47%.

From January to December 2006, the finished gold of the smelting enterprises (non-ferrous metal smelting enterprises +

gold smelting enterprises) was 111.867 tons, up 16.94 percent. The finished gold of the nonferrous metal smelting enterprises

was 38.856 tons, 23.87% more than the same period last year. The gold output of the key non-ferrous metal smelting

enterprises account for nation's output was: Jiangxi Copper Company Ltd.---33.99%, Yunnan Copper Co., Ltd.---25.79%,

Anhui Tongling Nonferrous Metal Group---11.95%, Daye Nonferrous Metal Company--- 11.33%, Gansu Jinchuan

Nonferrous Metal Company---4.28%; above key non-ferrous metal smelting enterprises account for about 87.34% of the

national output, and others account for about 12.66%. The finished gold of the gold smelting enterprises was 73.011 tons, up

13.55 percent. The gold output of the key gold smelting enterprises account for nation's output was: Shandong Zhaojin

Group---48.63 percent, Henan Lingbao Gold Company Ltd. ---14.09%, Henan Zhongyuan Gold Smelter---8.61%, Hengbang

Smelting Corporation---6.38%, Shandong Laizhou Gold Smelter---6.18%; the gold output of the above the key gold smelting

enterprises account for about 83.89% of the national output, and other gold smelting enterprises account for about 16.11%.

Gold prices soared in 2006, especially in first half year. Under the effect of price soaring of the international crude oil

and US dollar weakness as well as global inflation, gold price soared at 720S/oz in May from 502S/oz in January and

increased by 38.46%. Subsequently, controlled by a large number of undersell of the funds, the gold prices dropped down

greatly, nearly closing to the starting point before price rise. In the second half of the year, the gold market was featured with

� 61 �

Mining

wide-range surge. The gold price came back to 600 US dollars in the fourth quarter, but the downturn in oil prices made the

price of gold has been unable to break through the price at 660 US dollars.

Although the annual average price of the gold rose by 35.69% compared to the previous year, the supply of gold did not

increase. In the aspect of mineral gold, several major gold producing countries’ gold output dropped continuously due to the

descending of grade, increased production costs and the impact of natural disasters. The output of South Africa, Australia,

the United States and Indonesia dropped significantly. However, the output of China, Latin America and Africa and other

countries increased, partially offsetting the decline in output of these countries. Therefore, the global mineral output was

more than the expected output in 2006, amounting to 2,467 tons, a year-on-year decrease of 2 percent.

In 2006, the domestic gold prices followed the trend of international prices. However, because the domestic investment

shareswas relatively small, the domestic gold price did not rise so greatly as the international prices. But because of strong

demand, the domestic gold prices are still relatively high. The gold price in the Shanghai Gold Exchange soared from 138

yuan/g to 185 yuan /g in mid May from the beginning of the year and increased by 34.06 percent. Thereafter, the domestic

gold prices also experienced a sharp fall and fell to 144 yuan /g to mid-June, slumped 28.47 percent. In the second half year,

the gold market was featured with wide-range surge. The gold price rose to 173 yuan / g in the beginning July, but the the

price of gold has been unable to break through the price at 162 yuan / g.

China’s demand for gold is still strong. China’s rapid economic growth brought along the consumption of gold greatly

and the purchasing power of residents increased significantly in the past few years. China's gold consumption continued to

grow in recent years, especially in jewelry consumption. According to the World Gold Council's latest data, the gold

consumption in Mainland China rose by 1.5% to 187.6 tons from the first quarter to the third quarter of 2006, of which the

gold jewelry demand was 179.2 tons, accounting for 95 percent of total demand. The investment demand was 8.4 tons.

In the aspect of investment, China's gold demand has increased greatly in recent years. At present, as more banks and

gold merchants sell account gold and gold bullion, China's retail investment market has become active. As predicted by the

World Gold Council, the gold account transaction volume reached 50 tons from the first quarter to the third quarter of 2006,

but the net volume of account gold investment products was only 8.4 tons. However, the amount of the increase is significant

for China as its gold investment demand is low.

In 2007, the US dollar weakness and high oil prices and investment in the gold market will continue to support the price

rise of gold. The gold bull market will continue to exist. However, after many years’ price rising, the increasing space is

narrowed and rate of return of the commodity market is reduced. Therefore, the price of gold also has risks. On the wholel,

we believe that the price of gold will surge in the high price area in 2007 and even has new high record. It is expected that the

average price of the international gold will rise by about 7 percent, close to 645 US dollars / oz.

3.2.5 Analysis on zinc market trend

The domestic zinc price closely followed changes of LME in 2006 and showed unilateral upturn before May 12, the

average price of 1# zinc pig per ton rose form 17,000 yuan from the beginning of the year to maximum 36,500 yuan on May

12, the highest trade price of 1# zinc pig per ton reached 40,000 yuan and lasted for three to five days. With zinc price

adjustment made by the LME, the domestic price of 1# zinc pig dropped from May 13 to June 20, and the lowest price was

back to 24,600 yuan / ton. After this, the price began to goes up gradually. The domestic price was lower than LME prices in

the second half year. The price of 1# zinc pig was between 30000 to X 33,000 yuan at most times. The price difference

between 0 # and 1# zinc pig can reach 2,000 yuan / ton at maximum, and returned to between 100 to 150 yuan to the normal

level at the end of the year. The average price of 1# zinc pig per ton was 27,187 yuan in 2006, up 101.3% over last year; the

average price of 1# zinc pig per ton was 27,662 yuan / ton, up 102.4% over last year. The growth is less than the international

market.

China’s annual export of refined zinc was 325,000 tons in 2006, up 164% than in 2005; and the annual import of refined

zinc was 318,000 tons, 18.8 percent decrease compared to 2005. The annual net export of refined zinc was 7,228 tons.

However, in terms of the total trade of zinc products, the net import is still the dominant factor. The annual net import of zinc

concentrate was about 400,000 tons, the net import of zinc alloy was 198,000 tons, the net import of zinc dross was 70,000

China Business Guide

� 62 �

tons, the net import of zinc material was 38,000 tons, and the net export of zinc oxide was 29,000 tons.

According to the statistics of various organizations, the global zinc supply shortage was above 300,000 tons from 2003

to 2006. It was reported by LME that the net reduction of inventory was 305,000 tons in 2006. However, the regional

premium started to decline in November last year. The inventory increased of 27,000 tons to 88,000 tons reported by LME,

and further increased to more than 90,000 tons in January 2007. The market supply shartage was eased.

It is expected that the consumption of zinc in the United States and Europe will maintain the level of 2006 in 2007,

showing zero growth. The global demand growth is mainly dependent on Asia, particularly China and India. Antaike

estimates that the global zinc consumption in 2007 will rise 3.7 percent to about 11.7 million tons. The global zinc supply

shortage will be significantly reduced.

The newly increased production capacity of galvanized sheet of large domestic steel companies and joint ventures will

arrive at full capacity in 2007. A relatively large number of new production capacities will be put into production in 2007, and

the entire galvanized zinc industry’s demand for zinc will continue to grow rapidly. With prices down of copper and the

commission of brass sheet and strip in 2007, it is expected that the brass needs for zinc will be better than in 2006. The zinc

die casting alloys and battery industry’s demand for zinc still exist some uncertain factors, which may offset part of

consumption growth of galvanized zinc industry and brass industry. The domestic zinc consumption is expected to reach

about 3.74 million tons in 2007, a 10-percent increase versus 2006 and the growth rate is basically equivalent to that of 2006.

The domestic 0 # zinc pig continued to maintain 5% export tax rebate currently, the major enterprises have some

hedgings in the LME. The increase in processing fees is favorable for imports of raw materials and the processing supplied

materials amount is likely to increase. Therefore, China’s refined zinc exports will increase in 2007 conditionally. However,

the total amount of zinc is still in the state of net import.

The global zinc supply growth rate is accelerated markedly in 2007, while the demand growth is slowed down. The

shortage of supply will be significantly reduced and the stock will be recovered. The zinc price is showing downward trend as

a whole. In view of the recent zinc price adjustment is obviously larger than the expected adjustment, we lower the average

price of 2007, but the average price is expected to be higher than in 2006. The average spot price is about 3,430 US dollars /

ton and the annual average price domestic # 1 zinc pig is 28,490 yuan / ton.

3.2.6 Analysis on lead market trend

In 2006, under the circumstance of short supply in the Western countries and low lead inventory, China’s cancellation of

the export tax rebate stimulated the price rise of lead. LME’s futures price hit 1,790 US dollars / ton in December eventually.

Under the circumstance that the lead price has been higher than the price of basic metals, we expect that the lead price will

drop slightly in 2007, but given the higher export price of China’s refined lead and low inventory, the range of price drop will

not be great. LME’s futures price should not be lower than 900 US dollars / ton in March, and will maintain at 1150 to 1550

US dollars / ton of historical higher-level most of the time.

LME lead prices continue to hit historical new high in 2006. The futures hit a record high of 1,430 US dollars in

February, and then went to the period of recovery or regrouping in a few months and fell below 1,000 US dollars in June. The

lead price hit the historical high of 1,790 US dollars on December 12, which is the highest level since 1982. In 2006, the

LME middle spot price was 1,289 US dollars / ton, up 32 percent year on year; the futures average price was 1,283 US

dollars / ton in March, a year-on-year increase of 36.2%.

The domestic lead price was basically equivalent to the international price in 2006. Something slightly different is the

time when the domestic lead prices hit historical high is earlier. In early November, the highest price of the domestic lead

market reached 15,300 yuan / ton. The average price of domestic refined lead reached about 12,111 yuan / ton in 2006, up

29.3 percent over the same period of last year.

There are many factors that affect the lead price trend. However, as the fund attention fans for lead is relatively low,

what has a decisive effect on the lead price is the fundamental. In 2006, the changes of spot premium of major consumption

areas kept consistent with LME lead price trend. The changes of premium reflect the short supply of the spot. What factors

that affect the supply of the spot? There are three aspects: First, the balance of Western lead market; second, inventory; third,

� 63 �

Mining

burst factors, mainly refer to China’s cancellation of export tax rebate for refined lead.

The proportion of China’s refined lead output accounting for the world’s output is increasing. According to statistical

data of ILZSG and Antaike’s estimate, the global output of refined lead was about 8 million tons in 2006, up 5.4 percent on a

year-on-year basis, and the increase was mainly from China. While the Western countries’ refined lead increased slightly. The

output of China’s refined lead is expected to be 2.68 million tons in 2006, a year-on-year increase of 14.5%, and the

proportion in the global sharesrose from 31 percent in 2005 to 34 percent in 2006. The refined lead consumption cannot keep

up with the refined lead production growth. The supply gap of lead market is further narrowed. According to statistical data

of ILZSG and Antaike’s estimate, the global consumption of refined lead was 8.05 million tons in 2006, a year-on-year

increase of 3.7%. The increase in the global consumption of refined lead was almost concentrated in China, while Western

world’s consumption almost had no change. Antaike predicts that China’s lead consumption of refined lead will be 2.18

million tons or so in 2006, an increase of 14.1%. Under the circumstance that the refined lead output growth is faster than the

consumption growth, the supply gap of global lead market will be further narrowed from 123,000 tons in 2005 to 26,000 tons

in 2006.

China’s refined lead production is mainly in primary lead, the proportion of secondary lead is not great, so it is

particularly important to guarantee the supply of concentrate of smelting enterprises. China's newly increased production

capacity was great over the past two years, so the purchasing of raw materials has become intense. The newly increased

production capacity was nearly 500,000 tons in 2005 and 2006, but only 180,000 tons of which can guarantee the supply of

concentrate. The average price of China’s 60%-grade lead concentrate was 9,417 yuan / tons in 2006, a year-on-year increase

of 27.7%. According to the statistics of Customs Service, China’s imported lead concentrate was 1.19 million tons in 2006, a

increase 160,000 tons over the last year. Antaike expect that China’s lead concentrate output will be about 1.25 million tons

in 2006 and the self-produced concentrate can meet the needs of 64.8 percent melting enterprises.

In 2006, among China's top 20 enterprises in the production of refined lead, Henan Yuguang Gold & Lead Group Co.,

Ltd took the first place for its output of 288,000 tons. Yunnan Province Zhaotong City Lead Zinc Ore did not produce lead

concentrate before 2006, but it has a production capacity of about 60,000 tons of crude lead and 100,000 tons of electrolytic

lead after holding Yunnan Lixin Non-ferrous metals Company. From the total output, the proportion of the total output of top

20 enterprises fell from 57.7% in 2005 to 53.4% in 2006. Reduction of output of large smelters and the rise in lead prices

significantly stimulated the expansion of small enterprises, which was the main reason for the decline of production

concentration degree.

China’s Lead consumption mainly concentrated on the areas of lead-acid batteries. In 2006, China's lead-acid batteries

consumption of lead accounted for about 72 percent of the lead consumption, followed by lead monoxide, lead alloys and

lead material, the proportions of which were 15 percent and 7 percent respectively. The final consumption of the lead-acid

batteries was mainly in the following three fields: the automotive sector (excluding agricultural vehicles and military vehicles,

etc.), the field of electric vehicles and lead-acid battery exports. Antaike’s latest statistics show that the proportion of three

above fields’ consumption of lead-acid batteries reached 25%, 24% and 16% respectively.

Since 1999, China’s export volume of lead concentrate has maintained about 400,000 tons basically. In 2006, China’s

net export volume of lead concentrate reached 500,000 tons, a year-on-year increase of 19 percent. The export volume is

benefit from the increase of overseas demand, and the adjustment of export tax rebate had no great influence on the export.

China is the world's largest production and consumption country of refined lead. The supply shortage of Western

countries is made up mainly from China. Therefore, the global lead market depends on the changes of China’s lead market.

China's newly increased production capacity reached 500,000 tons in 2007, and more than half of them was supplied enough

raw materials, which was favorable for increasing production of refined lead. Meanwhile, the problem that VAT of

gold-containing lead concentrate cannot be deducted may be solved in 2007. Chinese enterprises’ overseas processing space

will be enlarged and the lead concentrate imports will increase. China's import of lead concentrate accounted one thirds of the

total overseas import in 2006.

As the strengthening of China's environmental protection, China's refined lead production will be affected. However, on

the whole, China's production will remain refined lead output will keep a substantial increase in 2007. In terms of

consumption, with China's rapid economic development, the major consumption areas of refined will maintain good

China Business Guide

� 64 �

development momentum, but because of the cancellation of export tax rebate of lead-acid batteries, lead-acid battery exports

will be affected to some extent. Therefore, the refined lead consumption growth cannot keep up with the increase in

production. China will export more refined lead. Antaike predicted, China’s refined lead output will be about 3.05 million

tons in 2007, consumption will be about 2.45 million tons and the net export volume will reach 550,000 tons. But because of

higher costs and cancellation of export tax rebate of lead-acid batteries, the export price will rise. With continuous expansion

of production capacity, the competition of concentrate will be even more intense. The production costs of China’s refine lead

will maintain at a relatively high level in 2007.

Over the past two years, the price of lead rose sharply made the global inventory depleted, LME Warehouse Stocks was

in very low level. LME Warehouse Stocks was about 40,000 tons by the end of 2006, the lowest level since 1990. Under the

circumstance that the inventories of consumer and producer were both very low, it still needs some time for global lead stocks

to resume the normal level. The lead inventory will not increase greatly in 2007.

Through the above analysis, we can reach the conclusion that China’s refined lead export will be continued to increase,

while Western countries’ supply gap is gradually narrowing. Therefore, supply shortage intense degree of Western countries

would be eased in 2007. The global refined lead will have some amount of surplus this year. Antaike predicts that the global

refine lead will have a surplus of 117,000 tons in 2007. The current fundamentals do not support the continuous price rise of

lead. By the end of 2006, the lead price growth rate was faster than the other basic metals. Hence, it is expected that LME

lead prices will show a downward trend in 2007. However, considering exported refined lead prices rise and a lower level of

inventory, we believe that the decline rates of lead prices will not be great. LME’s futures should not be lower than 900 US

dollars / ton in March and will maintain at 1150 to 1550 US dollars / ton most of the time. The average spot price will be

1,320 US dollars / tons. The domestic lead prices will fluctuate follow international prices, but with the depreciation of the

US dollar and the RMB revaluation, the ratio of domestic and foreign lead prices began to narrow down and dropped to about

9.4 percent in 2006. Therefore, we expect that the average price of domestic lead will be about 12,400 yuan / tons.

3.2.7 Analysis on nickel market trend

China imported 352,000 tons of nickel ore in December 2006 and 3.777 million tons nickel ore the whole year, a

year-on-year increase of 681 percent. Annual use of imported nickel pig iron produced by low-grade nickel ore was about

31,300 tons according to the most conservative estimate. China imported 10,375 tons of unwrought nickel in December.

From the quantities of imports of each month, the quantities of imported unwrought nickel in November and December are

far higher than the quantities in the first 10 months of 2006, not excluding the production inventory of part stainless steel

enterprises in 2007.

Macquaire Bank expects that the global stainless steel market will once again turn to the cyclical downturn in the second

half of 2007. The tense situation of nickel supply will be eased for a short time, but long-term tension trend in supply and

demand will not beimproved significantly. The Bank predicts that the global nickel consumption will be 1.45 million tons in

2007, an increase of 5.2%, significantly lower than the increase in 2006, nickel supply will be 1.46 million tons (under

normal circumstances), and the market excess supply will be about 7,000 tons.

According to CRU statistics, China’s annual nickel demand is 200,000 tons currently and the demand will rise to

400,000 tons in the forthcoming years. According to EU Statistics, China’s nickel demand will rise to 450,000 tons/year in

2015. As the global stainless steel output increases at a rate of 6% every year (China's growth rate is 22%), nickel supply gap

will be further expanded.

Under the circumstance of market tension and competition between fund and value maintaining, LME’s nickel futures

prices will remain 28,000 to 35,000 US dollars / ton in the fourth quarter of 2006; and will gradually decline at a high level in

2007 and fluctuate between 22000 to 30000 US dollars /ton, and the fluctuation is 24000 to 28500 US dollars most of the

time.

Jinchuan Group is China's largest nickel production enterprise. Its nickel output ranks No. 5 in the world and No. 1 in

Asia. The company achieved a turnover of 35.3 billion yuan in 2006, completed production of 101,000 tons of nickel,

205,000 tons of copper products and 6,300 tons of cobalt products. Group plans to increase nickel output from the 90,000

� 65 �

Mining

tons to 150,000 tons in 2008, hence, expanding the supply of raw materials become the urgent task at present of Jinchuan.

Jinchuan and China's Baosteel jointly invested 1 billion US dollars in the Philippines “NONOC Nickel Mine Project”,

acquired 9.996% shares of Canadian GobiMinInc for 306 million Canadian dollars, reached an agreement with Australia

AllegianceMining, Jinchuan Group acquired Avebury nickel mine of AllegianceMining valuing at 1.3 billion US dollars.

Jinchuan Group will provide financial and technical support for this nickel mine with a view to maximize the project's

production capacity in the shortest time. In the next 8-10 years, the nickel output will reach 70,000 tons exploited by Avebury.

Calculated by the current conversion price, the gross income will be more than 1.3 billion US dollars on the premise that the

smelting costs are excluded. According to the regulations of the agreement, Jinchuan Group has the consultation with the

company and the purchase of priority. Jinchuan enjoys a right of priority for acquision of AllegianceMining. Jinchuan will

pour capital of 12 million Australian dollars into this project.

3.2.8 Analysis on tin market trend

In 2006, the tin prices showed upward trend on the whole. At the beginning of the year, the price continued rebound at

the end of 2005, rising from 6500 US dollars to 9,700 US dollars in early May, creating a new high in ten years. One of the

major reasons for this is due to the extended rainy season in Indonesia, which affects the domestic production and even the

global supply. At the same time, the basic metals price rose sharply as a whole, which also drove the rise in tin price. But

after mid-May, the fund selling affected the entire basic metals market, and tin prices also fell rapidly to 8,000 US dollars.

From mid-late May to September, the tin price fluctuated from 7800 to 9,000 US dollars. From October 11, tin prices

rose rapidly from 9,000 US dollars to 11,000 US dollars in four days, creating a new high of 11,800 US dollars in 18 years at

the end of the year.

In 2006, the highest tin price was 11,800 US dollars / ton (December 29), the lowest price was 6,500 US dollars / ton

(January 3), and the average price was 8,765.283 US dollars / ton, up 19.39 percent compared to 2005. The highest price of

spot was 11,895 US dollars / ton (December 29), the lowest price was 6,620 US dollars / ton (January 5), and the average

price was 8,773.948 US dollars / ton, up 18.95 percent compared to 2005.

In 2006, the domestic tin price fluctuated with the international prices fluctuations. At the beginning of the year, the

domestic tin price was approximately 68,000 yuan and reached 90,000 yuan in April and May. But the price dropped rapidly

soon after. In the fourth quarter, the price rose gradually and reached about 92,000 yuan at its highest level.

The average tin price in the market of production goods was 82098.39 yuan/ton in 2006, up 3.84 percent compared to

2005, lower than the international price on the whole. In terms of tin price proportion at home and abroad, the price

proportion showed downward trend over the year. The normal proportion should be about 9, but it fell to 8 at the end of the

year.

The global tin market changed from “oversupply” to “surplus” in 2005, which was mainly caused by Indonesia’s great

reduction in the yield. The global supply is expected to increase by only 0.92 percent to 350,700 tons, while the global tin

consumption will continue to maintain a larger increase. It is estimated that the global consumption rose by 9.51 percent to

about 364,900 tons. The global supply shortage of tin market reached 4,400 tons in 2006.

The wide application of lead-free solder in the electronics industry has made the tin consumption a greater growth rate.

It is estimated that the global tin consumption will by 9.51 percent to 364,900 tons in 2006. Asia enjoys the fastest growth

rate in the world, especially China and Japan. It is estimated that China’s tin consumption will rise by 18.45% to 121,300 tons

in 2006. In addition, according to CRU-ITRI estimates, Japan’s tin consumption will rise by 17.77 percent to 39,100 tons in

2006. The tin consumption in European region will rise by 7.42 percent to 70,900 tons, and the United States will rise by 2.61

percent to 43,200 tons.

Stimulated by high prices of tin, the domestic output is increased greatly in 2006. According to statistics from China

Nonferrous Metals Industry Association, China's tin output rose by 15.62 percent to 138,000 tons on a year-on-year basis in

2006. Yunnan increased by 26.93 percent to 81,634 tons on a year-on-year basis, Hunan increased by 22.70% to 19,709 tons,

and Guangxi decreased by 8.8% to 32,051 tons. Antaike thinks that the data may be a bit high. We estimate that China's tin

output will be 131,000 tons in 2006, up 10 percent compared to 2005. Yunnan Tin Company’s increasing output is the most.

China Business Guide

� 66 �

The company's output in 2006 reached 52,399 tons, a year-on-year increase of 22.66 percent. The output of Yunnan

Chengfeng Non-Ferrous Metals Co., Ltd reached 21,765 tons, a year-on-year increase of 72.52 percent.

In 2006, Chinese government began to implement policies for protection of superior resources. Through the

improvement and rectification for mines by various regions, the output of tin concentrate was reduced greatly. Hunan Linwu

region rectified the mines from July, and most of local mines were closed and gradually resumed production until November,

making the region's tin concentrate output decreased of more than 8,000 tons compared to 2005. In addition, Yunnan,

Guangxi, Jiangxi, and other places have also adopted some rectification measures. According to statistics from China

Nonferrous Metal Industry Association, China’s tin concentrate output decreased by 33.53 percent to 51,832 tons on

year-on-year basis in 2006, of which the three main producing areas---the output of Hunan, Guangxi, and Yunnan was

reduced significantly, that was 53.45%, 20.09% and 21.25% respectively.

In 2006, China's tin consumption continued to maintain high-speed growth. The great increase in electronic products has

promoted the consumption of electronic materials, and thus China's tin lead solder consumption has increased as well. At the

same time, in order to adapt to the EU's lead-free directive, many domestic manufacturers producing solder turned to produce

lead-free solder, making domestic consumption of tin solder increase greatly. We estimate that China's tin solder consumption

will increase by 23 percent in 2006.

In 2006, China's tin plate output reached 2.1 million tons, its tin consumption in the tin plate industry is estimated at

about 10,000 tons calculated as per ton of tin plate consumes about 4.8 kilograms of tin. Float glass industry’s tin

consumption was reduced in 2006 and was around 4,000 tons. Other industries’ tin consumption also has slightly increased.

Antaike estimates that the tin consumption in China will reach 121,300 tons, up 18.46 percent compared to 2005.

China's import and export volume for tin ingot reduced significantly. According to statistics from the China Customs,

exports of tin ingot decreased 12.85 percent to 19,982 tons on year-on-year basis. The reduction of exports is related to the

decline and cancellation of export tax rebate. Besides, the increase in domestic consumption also makes the diminution of tin

ingot exports.

In 2006, China's imports of tin ingot also reduced a lot compared to 2005, a decrease of 16.3 percent to 15,913 tons.

Indonesia’s decrease in crude tin output and exports affected China's imports of tin ingot. According to statistics from the

China Custom三 s, China's imports of tin ingot from Indonesia decreased by 18.93 percent to 10,459 tons on year-on-year

basis in 2006. 13,158 tons imported tin ingot belongs to processing imported materials and processing materials supplied by

clients, accounting for 82.68 percent of the total imports.

In addition, the quantity of China’s imported tin concentrate decreased by 5.22 percent to 7,094 tons on year-on-year

basis in 2006, nearly 90 percent of which were imported from Bolivia. Although the imports of tin concentrate, crude tin and

domestic tin concentrate output reduced, the domestic refined tin output has increased. Therefore, we predict that the tin

output through waste recycling will increase greatly in 2006, and will gradually become a more important raw material

source for smelters.

According to CRU, Indonesia's refined tin output might drop to 123,500 tons in 2006, and tin concentrate output will

fall to 126,000 tons, a year-on-year decrease of 8.4% and 7.7% respectively. Other countries’ tin output is not very optimistic

either. China continues to control mines, and published the Access Criterion of Tin Industry at the end of 2006. This policy

has restricted China's tin smelting capacity expansion to some extent. Therefore, China's tin output growth will be limited. It

is estimated that China’s consumption of tin in the solder will maintain an increase of more than 20 percent in 2007. It is

estimated that China's total consumption of tin may reach 140,000 tons in 2007, and the global tin consumption may increase

by about 7 percent to 390,000 tons. The global tin shortage will be much more than in 2006, and may reach around 21,000

tons. The shortage will be relatively large in the first half of the year. Therefore, the tin prices may hit a new multi-year high

of 15,000 US dollars in the first half of year. In terms of the situation throughout the year, the tin market will continue to

remain strong in 2007 with the average price may be around 9,500 US dollars.

3.2.9 Analysis on platinum and palladium market trend

The platinum price increased by 31 percent on a year-on-year basis from January to September in 2006. Similarly, the

� 67 �

Mining

average price of palladium rose by 69% on a year-on-year basis from January to September. Let’s make a comparison among

the price index of platinum, palladium and gold, the price change amplitude of platinum exceeded that of gold in 2006. There

are two points need to be explained here. First, the platinum price fluctuation was greater than the gold in 2006. Second, there

is a close relationship between the price of platinum and gold. We can see that the price change amplitude of platinum is

much greater than palladium. The price proportion of platinum and gold rose from 0.75 to 0.63 by comparison. The US

Dollar price was very low this year, only at 0.34.

The world’s palladium supply growth is mainly due to increase in the output of the mines of South Africa. The platinum

supply has increased rapidly as well as the palladium. The platinum was in great demand in 2006. The catalyst accounts for

50% of the total demand of platinum and, compared to other industries, in particular the electronics industry; its consumption

of platinum is larger. The jewellery industry’s use of palladium declined from 2002 to 2006.

The global jewelry industry’s demand for platinum decreased by 6% to 10% in 2006 despite rise in raw material prices.

Jewelry’s demand for platinum accounts for the majority demand of platinum. We know that China and Japan are major

consuming countries of platinum jewellery, accounting for 44 percent and 29 percent of the market shares respectively. We

predict that Japan and China’s needs for platinum will decline in 2006. The platinum mine’s output and recovery of platinum

metals from spent purification catalyst is less than processing needs, but there are signs of increasing need in 2006. The

platinum market is expected to oversupply in 2006, the negative growth has ended, and inventories will increase. The

situation will affect the price of platinum if it is continued.

Platinum mine’s output and recovery of platinum metals from spent purification catalyst is less than processing needs, it

is expected that the palladium supply shortage situation will be alleviated in 2006 and the supply shortage of net inventory

will be reduced. The demand has remained low from 2000. With regard to the inventory of palladium, the net stock was low

from 2004 to 2006, accounting for 3% of the total supply. Therefore, the platinum market supply and demand was close to

balance. The stock of palladium was higher in 1999 and 2000. The palladium was mainly sold to Russian government and

water purification companies from 2004 to 2006. Most of the palladium stocks in the Russia are government stocks. This will

reduce the price pressure on palladium.

4 Development climate of China’s mining industry

4.1 Policy climate

4.1.1 Transfer of mining rights

Recently, the mining right market grows fast. According to the 11th Five-Year Plan for Mining Industry of Chinese

Association of Mining Right Assessors and “on basis of the requirement of relevant regulations, all mining rights acquired by

payment or transferred in the secondary market have been assessed currently.” The expansion of mining industry is shown by

the figure as follows: the number of the assessment projects on China’s mining right increased from 281 in 2001 to over 3000

in 2005.

According to the provisions of relevant laws issued by the state, the transfer of mining rights currently is conducted by

five modes including approval of application, agreement, invitation for bid and auction as well as listing.

Transfer of mining right by approval of application

It is a mode for the authorities responsible for the management of mining rights to approve the transfer of mining right.

It is also a process in which the authorities collect the cost of mining right and award the applicant with mining right through

examination and approval of the applicant’s applications and on basis of the result of assessment and decision. This mode

applies to mining rights, which is infirmity with other provisions of relevant regulations and laws or shall not be transferred

by means of agreement, invitation for bid, auction and listing due to the special circumstance according to the authorities.

The implementation of the approval of application is a way of implementation of acquisition for value in mining right,

marked by non-market-driven transfer and the rule of application going first.

Transfer of mining right by means of agreement

It is a mode for the authorities responsible for the administration of mining rights to approve the transfer of mining right.

It is also a process in which the applicant discusses the mine price, tenure of use, mining area, mode and time of payment,

requirement on development and utilization and other terms with the authorities after the approval of application and the

transfer contract is concluded and entered into on basis of mutual understanding. This mode applies to the mining right,

which is infirmity with other provisions of relevant regulations and laws or shall not be transferred by means of invitation for

bid, auction and listing because of special situation according to the authorities. Transfer by agreement is a special transfer

mode. It needs the necessary factors of administrative approval and the market transaction. It is a way of implementation of

acquisition for value in mining right, marked by non-market-driven transfer and without competitor.

Transfer of mining right by means of invitation for bid

It is a mode for the authorities responsible for the administration of mining rights in market to seek a developer in favor

of the government’s development and utilization plan after the government works out the clear intention on development and

utilization and the planning conditions. It is also a process in which the authorities prepare the bidding document and issue

bidding notice or invitation on basis of the bidding project of mining right, while the bidder receives the bidding document

and submit a bid, and then the authorities evaluate the bid and choose the successful bidder on a selective basis. This mode

applies to the large and complex mining places and requires the developer not only possesses adequate capital to ensure the

minimum input of mine exploitation but also has more powerful qualification to meet the need of mine exploitation. It

belongs to market-oriented transfer with more than one bidder and chooses the successful bidder on a selective basis.

Transfer of mining right by means of auction

It is a mode for the authorities responsible for the administration of mining rights to organize the bidding among the

bidders in accordance with the provisions of relevant regulations and decide the transfer mode of mining right on basis of the

bidding result after the government works out the intention on the development and utilization of some mining field. It is also

a process in which the authorities at the appointed time in appointed place organize the qualified bidder to make the public

� 69 �

Mining

bid on mining right and choose the transferee in accordance with the principle of the highest bid wins. This mode applies to

the transfer of mining right active in mining product market and with large number of bidders, marked by market-driven

transfer, large number of bidders and “the highest bid wins”.

Transfer of mining right by means of listing

It is a mode by which the authorities responsible for the administration of mining rights will draft the transaction

conditions of the transfer of mining right, accept the bidder’s tender within the notice period and decide the transferee on

basis of the result of offer within the deadline of listing. It is also a process in which the authorities responsible for the

administration of mining rights issue the initial price for the transfer of mining right at the appointed trading place of mining

rights according to the designated date of the listing bulletin, and then wait for the offer of the bidder, accept and issue the

latest quotation and choose the transferee on basis of the result of offer until the deadline of listing. This mode applies to the

transfer of mining rights with few bidders in a not very lively market, characterized by market-driven transfer, free number of

bidders and “the highest bid wins”.

4.1.2 Integration of mineral resources

Many problems such as the number of mining enterprise increases quickly; the scale of mining enterprise become more

and more small and the location of mining enterprise becomes increasingly dispersed; insufficient utilization of big mine and

unrestrained exploitation of the same mine, because China is rich in small deposit and short of large deposit and furthermore

encouraged the towns to develop the mining industry during the early days of reform and opening up, adding the extensive

operation of mining industry. These problems go against the sustainable development of China’s national economy. It is

important to integrate the mineral resources and other production factors and regulate the layout of the mining exploitation.

The State Council has fully rectified and standardized the exploitation system of mineral resource since 2005. Sine then each

province has taken effective measures and fully rectified the exploitation system of mineral system. The integration of

mineral resources shows the new development. The trend that superior resources have run into the powerful enterprise has

become more and more apparent. In accordance with the No. 18/2006 Document issued by the General Office of the State

Council, the clear orientation on the objective of the integration of the mineral resource is as follows: firstly, it is urgent to

settle the problem of insufficient utilization of big mine and unrestrained exploitation of the same mine, make the exploitation

layout of mine become more and more rational and set one mining right in one mine area; secondly, it is to settle the problem

of mining enterprises and finish the allocation that the powerful enterprise gains the superior mineral resource; thirdly, it is to

obviously improve the exploitation and utilization rate of mineral resources within the whole area; fourthly, it is to carry out

the Laws and Regulations System of Safety Production carefully, strengthen the safety inspection and supervision and

eliminate the hidden danger in safety, which generated by irrational layout of mine exploitation; fifthly, it is to reserve and

treat the wastes in a concentrative way, treat the contamination to meet the State’s discharge standard in order to apparently

improve the ecological environment of mine.

Henan province enhances the control power for key resource to push mineral resources’ concentration towards powerful

and leading enterprise. In term of the integration of state-owned coalmine, the seven key leading coal enterprises are guided

and encouraged to integrate the local state-owned coalmine where they located. In term of the integration of bauxite mine, the

concentration steps of bauxite resources towards the key alumina enterprise at provincial level have been quickened. The

secondary integration work of the bauxite resources had been finished by end of 2007. In term of the resource integration of

other key minerals such as gold, molybdenum and iron, the integration is conducted under the law on the basis of government

promotion, enterprise equal negotiation, and reasonable allocation of interests. In order to improve the guidance on the

mineral resource integration, Hehan provincial government determined to change the name of Leading Team for

Consolidation of Coal and Aluminum Mines of Henan Province into Leading Team for Consolidation of Mineral Resource of

Henan Province. Furthermore, the government adjusted and enriched the member unit of leading team and published the

suggestion for mineral resource integration.

Hunan province encourages the nonferrous metal industry to grow bigger and stronger by taking use of the advantage in

resources and by the push of the key leading enterprise. The government also clearly express that it will make great efforts to

China Business Guide

� 70 �

support the development of Hunan Nonferrous Metals Holding Group Co Ltd (herein after referred to as “Hunan Nonferrous

Metals”).

In accordance with the Notice of the General Office of the State Council on Suggestion of Ministry of Land and

Resources and other Ministries about the Exploitation and Integration of Mineral Resources, the government at provincial

level shall take the overall responsibility for the exploitation and integration of mineral resource. The leading team at

provincial-level shall take charge of the rectification and standardization of the exploitation system of mineral resources.

During the exploitation and integration of mineral resources, the provincial (autonomous region, municipality directly under

the Central Government) government shall organize the departments of Ministry of Land and Resources and the people’s

government of a municipal district or a city or a county to make the mine integration plan and confirm the mine area

belonging to the integration on basis of the general integration plan. Furthermore, it is not only responsible for the

formulation of relevant policies and the standard conditions the mine must meet after the integration, but also gives the

guidance and finish the exploitation and integration works of mineral resources macroscopically. In accordance with the

notice, the people’s government at every level shall make the local integration plan. On basis of the general requirement of

the work on national mineral exploitation and integration, each province (autonomous region, municipality directly under the

Central Government) shall finish the mineral exploitation and integration of over three important type of minerals and over

five important mine areas by the end of 2007; and basically complete the work on the exploitation and integration of mineral

resources.

By means of “government’s guidance, operation on basis of market and integration according to law”, Yannan provincial

government made over half of the important mineral resources including tin, copper, lead, zinc and other minerals

concentrated into the large leading enterprise. 74% of the tin resources with proven reserves in Yunnan have been

concentrated into with proven reserves. 60% of copper resources have been integrated into Yunnan Coppper Group. 64% of

lead and zinc resources have been integrated into Yunnan Metallurgical General Enterprise, Yunnan Jinding Zinc Industry

Limited Enterprise and Xiangyun Enterprise. 71% of the iron ore resources have been integrated into Kunming Iron & Steel

(Group) Co Ltd and Lufeng Degang Enterprise. In term of the mode of resource integration, the superior resources have been

primarily concentrated into the powerful enterprise by means of “walking on two legs” to the effect that the integration of

industries at provincial level and the integration of key mine areas at district and city level. Firstly, taking use of the

opportunity generated by industry integration, it can realize the concentration of the six important resources towards the

powerful enterprise. The promotion on the mode of industry integration represented by “old mode” within the province and

the mode combing the industry and resource integration has gotten sound result. Secondly, it cuts the mining rights by means

of mine area integration. By making great efforts to rectify and integrate the key mine areas within each city and county, the

number of the key mine areas integrated within the province currently is 67, while the number of mining rights have been

reduced 772. It puts an end to the unauthorized mining plant. 2126 mining plants without irrational setup and not only

wasting resources but also damaging the environment, have been shut down.

Greater efforts have been exerted to control and allocate the important resources and promote the concentration of the

mineral resource to powerful and leading enterprise by Henan provincial government. In term of the integration of

state-owned coalmine, the government guides and encourages the top seven leading coal enterprises in Henan to integrate the

nearest local state-owned coalmine. In term of the integration of bauxite mine, the government speeds up the concentration

step of bauxite mine resources to the key enterprise in alumina industry at provincial level. The secondary integration work

had been finished ahead of time by the end of 2007. The integration of important mineral resources such as gold,

molybdenum and iron is conducted under the law on the basis of government promotion, enterprise equal negotiation, and

reasonable allocation of interests. In order to enhance the leadership on the integration of mineral resources, Henan provincial

government decides to change the name of Leading Team for Consolidation of Coal and Aluminum Mines of Henan Province

into Leading Team for Consolidation of Mineral Resources of Henan Province, adjust and enrich the member units of leading

team and publish the guiding principles for the integration of mineral resources.

Hunan Province puts forward the slogan of making full use of resource advantageous and expanding and enhancing the

capability of nonferrous metals industry by the push of the leading enterprise and will give all-out support to the development

of Hunan Nonferrous Metals. Big step has been taken in resource integration by Hunan Nonferrous Metals Holding Group

� 71 �

Mining

Co Ltd. Last year, Hunan Nonferrous Metals had successfully held 80% of shares of Zigong Cemented Carbide Corporation

Co Ltd by increase of capital and investment. After holding 45.9% of the shares of China Tungsten and Hightech Materials

Co Ltd directly and indirectly, Hunan Nonferrous Metals has become the top manufacturer of cemented carbide in the world

and plays half of the domestic cemented carbide market. Later, Hunan Nonferrous Metals actively discussed the integration

issue of Tungsten resources with the relevant enterprises and made great efforts to control the Tungsten market form the

source. Hunan Nonferrous Metals signed the framework agreement on cooperation with the City of Chenzhou to invest 2

billion yuan within five years to develop the nonferrous metals resources jointly and establish Baiyin Nonferrous Metals

(Group) Co Ltd in order to push the growth of the nonferrous metals development, smelting processing and deep processing

of Chenzhou. A proposed largest market of nonferrous metals and mineral product and logistic center of mineral product in

China will be built in Chenzhou. Hunan Nonferrous Metals has signed a joint venture agreement with Chaling Xiangdong

Tungsten Enterprise and purchased 90% of shares of Chaling Xiangdong Tungsten Enterprise by 67 million yuan. Hunan

Nonferrous Metals has signed a framework agreement on cooperation with Hengyang Municipal Government to integrate,

develop and use the nonferrous metals resources of Hengyang. Hunan Nonferrous Metals has purchased over 90% of shares

of Tungsten by 360 million yuan. Hunan Nonferrous Metals will also finish the reorganization of some bankrupt enterprises

including Baoshan Lead-Zinc Mine and Xianghualing Tin Industry at the opportune time this year. Hunan Nonferrous Metals

has begun to harmonize the integration work of Xintianling mining area in Hunan recently. Hunan Nonferrous Metals had

4.2 Overseas investment of mining

4.2.1 Promotion of overseas investment for Chinese mining enterprises

Although the output of Chinese mining products increasing rapidly for recent years, the situation between demand and

supply is still tight. The supply of some predominant mineral products such as oil, steel, copper, aluminum and sylvite

becomes increasingly tight. In Chine, which is the largest development country in the world, the supply of mineral resources

has become the biggest bottleneck holding back the sustainable development of national economy. “Going out” to explore the

foreign mineral resources has become one of the most important ways of relieving the existing tight situation of mineral

resources in China and also a critical and urgent task before us. China’s oil industry, non-ferrous metal industry and

metallurgical industry have taken the step of overseas exploitation and development, which has come into fruition and

prepared the ground for further steps of “going out” strategy to develop oversees resources. The exploitation and

development of oversees mineral resources not only hinges on the mining enterprises themselves but also depends on the

powerful support from the government. Without the support, coordination and supportive policies of the government, the

mining enterprises are hardly able to lift each foot.

The next two decades witness the rapid development of China’s national economy and the swift growth of the

consumption of China’s mineral resources. Till 2020, the demand for some major predominant minerals such as coal, steel

and sylvite is expected to be twice of that of 2000, while the demand for oil, copper and aluminum will maybe three to four

times of that of 2000. Degree of oversees dependence of other minerals except coal will be above 50%. The economic

globalization upgrades the mining globalization, which offers unprecedented opportunities and challenges for development.

On one hand, the mining globalization promotes the exploitation and development of China’s mineral resources, creates

advantages for making using of foreign resources and pushes the improvement of the production process and the

management of China’s mining enterprises. On the other hand, because of some problems lie in China’s mining industry itself,

� 85 �

Mining

in today’s China, mining globalization has experienced the large impact and fierce competition from foreign countries.

Nowadays, China’s domestic mineral resources become increasingly scarce, while the mining globalization develops more

and more obviously. Under such circumstance, encouraging Chinese enterprises go out to make overseas investment in

mining industry is not only a beneficial practice for Chinese enterprises going out of China and attending international

competition, but also an important way of settling the problem of scarce mineral resources and ensuring its stable supply.

Since the reform and opening up, especially since 1990, China’s comprehensive national strength and international

competitive ability has increased a lot, furthermore, relevant laws and regulations on oversees investment have successive

came and the international investment climate has been improved a lot. The step of oversees investment and foreign resources

exploitation by China’s mining enterprises has been quickened notably. According to incomplete statistics, China’s mining

enterprises and other enterprises in oil, metallurgical and geology and mineral resources departments has conducted talks and

cooperation on the exploitation and development of mineral resource in Latin America, Africa, Middle East and surrounding

areas of China, totally over 40 countries (mainly the developing countries). Moreover, these enterprises have also carried out

minerals exploitation in some of the abovementioned countries. In accordance with the current oversees investment made by

China’s mining enterprises, for early starting, China’s oil department has began to take shape and possess the basic ability to

develop oil in foreign countries. In addition, because of enough preparation and general planning, China’s oil department has

not only huge potential to make oversees investment in oil and gas resources but also certain persistence ability and

international competitive ability. Compared with west powers, oversees oil and gas market share of China is still smaller.

Although the oversees investment in non-oil and gas mineral resources has stepped on the right path, for lack of general

strategy, the ability to develop oversees resources is still weak. However, the investments in ferrous metal and chromite have

made great success. Till now, the output of oversees iron mine of China is 25% of total import volume of China’s iron ore.

The target of oversees investment in precious metal minerals mainly focuses on gold, while targets of oversees investment in

non-ferrous metal minerals mainly focus on copper and aluminum. China has successively made some mineral risk

exploration targeted on copper and gold in Australia, Southeast Asia, South America and other countries and found some

good exploitation target and prospect areas. In brief, the oversees mineral resources exploitation and development work of

China’s mining industry is still in the initial stage featured by small scale, slow progress and imbalance development.

Presently, China has cooperated with countries from Africa and Latin America and other countries from Asian in mineral

resources and achieved “win-win” situation. China has still encouraged the powerful enterprises to conduct cooperation in

mineral resources and the utilization and exploitation of the mineral resources as well as the geology inspection in accordance

with the international common practice and the law of the country of cooperation.

The areas selection of oversees mineral resources for China’s “going out” strategy shall learn from the international

experience in accordance with standards to choose investment country and project for multinational mining enterprise. China

has quickened its exploitation and development steps in some countries rich in resources in Africa. Africa, rich in mineral

resources, has a friendly relationship with China. In addition, foreign mining enterprise is scarce in African countries. China

shall attaches great importance to such countries. The exploitation and development of mineral resources in Africa shall

gradually develop into an important mineral resources supply base for China. South Africa, rich in the mineral resources such

as iron, manganese, copper, chromite, cobalt and diamond, which are short in China, has strong complementarity in economic

development with China. In addition, the large volume of mineral products can be imported. The relevant enterprises in

China have paid profound attention to chromium ore in Africa. In view of the sound beginning of cooperation in mining

exploitation between African countries and China and with the further progress of the strategic cooperation between them,

more and more Chinese enterprises will invest in the mining industry of Africa.

Caucasus region and the Caspian Sea areas at present is a blank in the framework of global mineral resources. West

multilateral mining enterprise has not occupied the hinterland of Europe and Asia. Such hinterland will give relatively stable

and long-term supply of oil, copper, sylvite, chromite, manganese and nickel and other important strategic resources by

building mineral resources development circle on basis of resources cooperation. Meanwhile, the new “Silk Road” will

provide China’s resources diplomacy and policy with broad geostrategy basis and display certain role in building surrounding

security mechanism by exploitation and cooperation of resources.

China takes the developing countries as her major cooperative partners of oversees investment in mineral exploitation. It

China Business Guide

� 86 �

is very important to get the support and help of the local government in such countries during the mineral exploitation.

However, this work will yield better effect by diplomatic solution of Chinese governments. The Chinese governments shall

support the enterprises in system of government, capital, technology and talent education. In Sep. 2006, Zijin Mining Group

Co Ltd signed a financial cooperation agreement along with China Development Bank in Xiamen. In accordance with such

agreement, China Development Bank authorized Zijin Mining Group Co Ltd a line of credit amounting to 9.6 billion yuan to

meet the need of expansion of oversees business of Zijin Mining Group. China Development Bank actively gave support to

China’s “going out” strategy and to a large extent resolved the capital problem of Zijin Mining Group Co Ltd during the

recent exploitation of oversees project.

4.2.2 Notable achievements of “going out” strategy in mineral resources exploitation

The relevant departments of China has cooperated with around 40 countries in Latin America, Australia, Africa, Middle

East and Middle Asia in exploitation and development of mineral resources including iron ore, oil, copper ore, gold ore,

cobalt ore and chromic iron ore, which is short in China. Such cooperation has made certain success. New achievements in

investment in exploitation and development of oversees mineral resources has been made by Chinese enterprises in 2006.

Three oil enterprises of China signed a series of oversees cooperation agreements. China Minmetals Corporation, along with

Codel•CO, jointly develops cooper resources of Chile. CNMC has gotten the metal reserves including copper, zinc, nickel

and cobalt in Zambia, Mongolia and Myanmar. Fujian Jijin Mining Group and Jiangsu Huaxi Group have invested in mineral

resource exploitation in foreign countries. It is a trend to integrate oversees mine resources. The successful development of

abovementioned projects has yielded better economic returns and promoted the growth of local economy.

Presently, oversees Chinese mining enterprises shall be divided into following three categories by nature of enterprise:

large state-owned enterprise, joint-stock enterprise and private enterprise. The large state-owned enterprise, under supervision

of the Central Government, is the representative of the Chinese government in oversees mining market. The Chinese

government realizes the intent of the national strategic resources reserves by large state-owned enterprise controlling resource

projects. The Chinese government provides the large state-owned enterprise with enough capital and powerful competitive

ability by national financial institutions’ loan fund. Sometimes, in view of foreign policies, the Chinese government often

supports the developing countries in Asia, Africa and Latin America by means of program aid, which is often made by large

state-owned enterprise’s contracts. Joint-stock enterprise is a typical module under modern enterprise system and the product

of market-driven economy. Usually, the joint-stock enterprise, even wonderfully excellent, hardly achieves full supports

(neither financial loan nor government support) from the government due to domestic policies and various reasons. Numbers

of joint-stock enterprises have to ensure the security of oversees investment and appropriate return rate by their own stable

operation. Seldom leaders or management team have no powerful sense of potential problems in operation. Such strong sense

of responsibility pushes them to explore oversees mine resources and realize the strategic intent of enterprises. The private

enterprise is composed of individual natural person or numbers of individual natural persons. The registered capital of

common private enterprise is very low. The business scope of private enterprise usually refers to trading of mineral product.

The operation mode of private enterprise is very flexible and free of interruption of enterprise system. The scale of private

enterprise is often very small.

In accordance with the enterprise nature of oversees Chinese mining enterprises, their business scopes usually are

divided into four categories:

The first category refers to oversees M & Q. Such business is usually conducted by large state-owned enterprise, for

example China Minmetals Corporation, which reached an investment and supply agreement and established the strategic

cooperation by a US$ 2 billion investment with Codel•CO on May 31, 2005.

The second category refers to mine investment moved by the demand of national foreign policies. Such business is

usually conducted by large state-owned enterprise, for example Zambia’s Chambishi Copper Mine. As one of China’s

economic aid projects for Zambia, this project is operated by NFCA and co-contracted by CNMC, Tongling Nonferrous

Metal Mining Group and Zhongtiaoshan Nonferrous Metal Mining Group. Chambishi Copper Mine, an old mine, was

purchased by China by US$ 20 million in 1998. Till 2000, Chambishi Copper Mine was constructed and rebuilt. It was put

� 87 �

Mining

into operation in July 2003. In 2004, Chambishi Copper Mine produced five tons of copper concentrate and created sales of

US$ 51.21 million. NFCA has the land-use right of 41km of ground surface in Chambishi Copper Mine area, which is

equipped with complete water, electricity, transport, communication, living and service facilities. For several years, the

enterprise has invested US$ 150 million in improving the construction of auxiliary basic project including dynamite plant,

smelting works and hospitals.

The third category refers to self-development mine project drawn directly investment. Such business can be conducted

either by large state-owned enterprise or joint-stock enterprise and private enterprise. CHIMAN, a Zambian company, draws

investment from a private enterprise in Liaoning of China. This private enterprise operated a manganese mine with 4 million

tons of explored reserves in Zambia in 2004. Presently, the registration documents of the enterprise have been completed and

relevant equipment have also successively been in place. The manganese mine is planned to put into operation in 2006. The

ores produced by manganese mine will be carried back to China by Tanzam Railway and by sea. Kelan Coal Mine, a Chinese

private enterprise, is located in the south of Zambia. Presently, the total investment in Kelan Coal Mine has hit US$ 1.5

million. The mine was put into operation in 2003. The output was around 20,000 tons in 2004. The output of this mine is

expected to be 10,000 tons in 2006. Kelan Coal Mine is going to make an expansion in annual output to 200,000 tons and

become the largest coalmine in Zambia.

The forth category refers to minerals trade. Such business can be conducted either by large state-owned enterprise or

joint-stock enterprise and private enterprise. For example the iron ore trade made by the giant suppliers such as Shanhai

Baosteel Group, BHP Billiton and Companhia Vale do Rio Doce. China Minmetals Corporation has also ore purchase station

in Bolivia and other countries in South America. The trading volume of private enterprise is skyrocketing with the

increasingly huge demand of China’s mining market. Main business scopes of private enterprise include iron ore, cobalt ore,

aluminium oxide, marble and ect. But the scale of business is very small.

China Nonferrous Metal Mining Group Co Ltd (hereinafter referred as to “CNMC”) has established offices and

operation institutions in many countries and regions. The business scopes cover the entire process of exploitation, design,

construction, mining, dressing and smelting. After twenty-year development, CNMC has gradually become a major leading

enterprise in oversees nonferrous resources exploitation, general engineering contractor at home and abroad and the relevant

trading and service industries. CNMC has become a “going out” pioneer in China’s nonferrous metal industry. The

nonferrous metal resources projects developed or under operation by CNMC include Chambishi Copper Mine,

Tumurttin-Ovoo Zinc Mine of Mongolia, Tagaung Taung Nickel project of Myanmar and Thai-China lead-Antimony Alloy

Plant. CNMC successfully access into Australian mining capital market by purchasing ORD’s stock. CNMC cooperated with

Iran Mining Industries Development to explore lead and zinc resources in Iran; invested in transformation of nonferrous mine

in Korea; accessed to risk exploration areas in Cambodia, Laos and other countries; signed a cooperation agreement on

establishing Chambishi China Nonferrous Industrial Park with Ministry of Industry and Trade of Zambia and strengthened

the work on exploitation of oversees metal resource such as copper, aluminum, lead, zinc and nickel by various means.

CNMC has successfully built Iran Hatongabade Copper Smelting Plant, Fayabu Iron Alloy Plant, Iran Gagamu Alumina Plant,

Arak Aluminum Smelter, Saindak Smelter of Pakistan and a copper plant of Vietnam. CNMC has got a stable market share in

Asian countries, especially in Iran. China Nonferrous Metal Industry's Foreign Engineering Construction Co Ltd has

successfully entered Australian market, contracted the largest electrolytic aluminium project in Kazakhstan and has been

nominated to be one of the Top 225 Biggest International Contractors by the Engineering News Document of the United

States. In March 2005, China Nonferrous Metals Int’l Mining Co Ltd, founded by CNMC, (hereinafter referred to

as“CNMIM”) purchased Australia ORD (O R D R I V E RRESOURCES LTD) and successfully listed on Australian Stock

Exchange on March 8, 2005. CNMIM is the first state-owned resource-based enterprise listed at broad by means of risk

exploitation enterprise. ORD have seven risk exploitation projects, of which three are gold mines and four are copper mines,

on nonferrous metal resources in the north of Australia. In accordance with the cooperation agreement signed on November

2004, CNMIM shall gain the exclusive selling rights of mineral product produced by all exploitation projects on nonferrous

metal resources. CNMIM shall also have the priority for exploitation, design, engineering contract and equipment supply.

The total volume of mineral resources owned by China Minmetals Corporation (hereinafter referred to as “CMC”) has

experiences a rapid increase for recent years. Till the end of 2006, CMC had gotten 60 million tons of iron reserves, 0.385

China Business Guide

� 88 �

million tons of tungsten reserves, 280 million tons of coke reserves and 2.51 million tons of annual supply of aluminum oxide.

CMC’s annual turnover in 2006 hit US$ 18.9 billion, which exceeded US$ 15 billion in three successive years, and its scale

and economic return have also hit another new high. CMC is the largest multinational operating group engaging in mining,

smelting, manufacturing and circulation of basic metals and the predominant raw materials. CMC has transformed the profit

mode of trade used for several decades and developed into a multinational resource-based enterprise. The investment in

copper mine in Chile has yielded 0.85 million tons of electrolytic copper in 15 years. The investment in Jamaica has yielded

the stable supply of bauxite. CMC has established 44 joint ventures or sole proprietorship enterprises in the major countries

throughout each continent. To match the grand transformation from free-trade-based enterprise to resource-based enterprise,

CMC invested 616 million yuan in establishing China Minmetals Non-ferrous Metals Co Ltd in December 2001. Presently,

China Minmetals Non-ferrous Metals Co Ltd has possessed 13 shareholding enterprises and offices and 6 equity participation

enterprises. Its investment covers copper, aluminum, tungsten, antimony, tin, tombar thite, tantalum, peloponium and other

metals. On February 22, 2006, a joint venture agreement was signed with Codelco, Chile, and China Development Bank on

exploitation of copper resources in Chile. In accordance with the agreement, the stage I investment in the joint venture will be

US$ 550 million and the total volume of investment will hit US$ 2 billion. CMC says it is the first cooperation project on

exploitation of oversees resources jointly between the enterprise in the world largest copper-consumption nation and the

enterprise in the world largest copper-production nation.

Since 2005, China’s steel enterprise’s steps towards oversees exploitation have been quickened. Baosteel has

successfully established Baohuarui Mining Company and Baoruiji Mining Company. On basis of this, Baosteel achieved the

iron ore supply of 6 million and 10 million tons annually. Ansteel Group hold parts of equity of iron mine project in Western

Australia. Shougang purchased Peru’s Marcona Iron Mine Poject with a annual output of 7 million tons. Kunming Iron &

Steel Group Co Ltd established mines in Vietnam. Four giant steel enterprises, Wuan Iron and Steel Group, Baosteel, Ansteel

and Shousteel, have jointly invested in the establishment of Beijing Steel Enterprise Union Mineral Resources Investment Co

Ltd (hereinafter referred as to Beijing Steel Enterprise Union) in Beijing. The four giant steel enterprises have also hold the

first session of the first shareholder meeting, board meeting and supervisor meeting. After the establishment, the first

oversees resources project undertaken is the iron mine project in Preah Vihéar of Cambodia. Top leaders of Cambodia and

China have always given the top priority to the exploitation of iron resources in Cambodia. It is said that this project

complied with the state’s requirements of oversees investment and resources exploitation for the enterprise. Some experts

said the establishment of Beijing Steel Enterprise Union was marked the beginning of oversees investment and mineral

resources exploitation by China’s steel enterprises jointly. The Cooperation made by four giant steel enterprises can avoid

internal competitions effectively. On one hand, China has numbers of steel enterprises, which have their own development

strategies. It is likely for them to flood into certain countries and regions rich in iron resources during the road of oversees

exploitation. This highly concentration would raise the standard of the establishment of mines and finally cause the increase

of the exploitation cost for the enterprises themselves. On the other hand, this kind of situation is possible to arouse strong

feelings among the foreign society and local people. Therefore, it is an ideal choice to go out jointly. Luo Bingsheng,

secretary-general of China Iron & Steel Association, expressed that China’s steel enterprises shall further expansion its

operation to realize the common profits for each party such as mine, shipment, steel plant and trader, while achieving the

“win-win” situation between steel enterprise and mine in iron ore trade on basis of taking iron ore as the predominant

commodities. The shorter the industrial chain is, the stronger the fluctuation is. Vertical integration strategy has been applied

by many China’s steel enterprises pursuing stable profit.

Chinalco has actively followed the Aurukun Project since the end of 2003 and officially attend the global invitation for

bid on September 15, 2005. For two years, Chinalco has finally had this project. Aurukun bauxite mine in Cape York, north

of Queensland, is near Weipa mine. The estimated reserves are around 420 million tons. This mine’s mining right is awarded

to a French aluminum company in 1975. But this mine hasn’t been exploited for some reasons. Queensland Government

recalled the mining right in accordance with legislative procedure in May 2004, and officially conducted the global invitation

for bid on Aurukun bauxite exploitation on September 14, 2005. This invitation had aroused the lively interest of the famous

company in resource exploitation and aluminium industry. There are totally ten companies taking part in this bid. Chinalco is

going to invest AUD 3 billion totally to establish an oxide enterprise with annual output of 2.1 million tons and a bauxite

mine with annual output of 10 million tons as well as relevant facilities.

Zijin Mining Group Co Ltd is a famous gold and non-ferrous mining enterprise. For 13 years since its establishment, the

average annual increase speeds of capital, sales and profit exceed 80% respectively. By actively developing oversees business,

Zijin Mining Group Co Ltd has established numbers of subsidiaries and offices in Canada, Mongolia, Myanmar, Peru and

Bolivia in recent years. By giving top priority to South America rich in mineral resources and ideal for investment

environment, Zijin Mining Group Co Ltd has played an actively role in the process of China’s “going out” strategy. Because

of the large number of opencast mine, its production cost per ton takes the lowest places in global gold mining industry. Last

year, the production cost of Zijin Mining Group Co Ltd is only US$ 203 per ounce, which is lower than the global average

level, which is US$ 296. Till the end of 2005, the gold reserve was 375 tons, which was listed the top at home. Except gold

business, Zijin Mining Group Co Ltd has also developed its business in copper and zinc mine in order to avoid the risk

brought by gold market fluctuation. Presently, De’erni Copper Mine with an annual output of 22,000 tons under supervision

of Zijin Mining Group Co Ltd has been put into operation in October 2006. The copper reserves havehit over 3 million tons

presently. And there are also plenty of zinc, cobalt, iron, molybdenum, nickel and coal. At the beginning of this year, Zijin

Mining Group Co Ltd, along with another domestic mining enterprise, finds a large nickel mine with reserves of around

million tons and gradation of above 1.3% in Myanmar. This nickel mine will be put operation after three years.

Jiangsu Huaxi Group invested in oversees project on mining industry in Mexico in February 2007, after investing US$ 3

million and US$ 0.64 million in the establishment of two enterprises respectively in Australia and Hong Kong. The total

investment in the project was US$ 27, which was solely funded by Huaxi Group. The Mexican cooperative partner provided

Huaxi Group with supports in policy and laws. The investment was mainly used for the exploitation of the copper industry in

Mexico. After operation, the mine will produce over 10,000 tons of fine copper powder, which will yield sales of 500 million

yuan annually. In August 2008, Huaxi Group invested US$ 25 in the mining right of copper mine in Sinaloa of Mexico. The

copper ore invested by Huaxi Group is rich in gradation, of which the copper content is 1.2% to 5.5%. The service life of the

deposit explored presently is around 10 years calculated by annual output of 20,000 tons of copper metal.

In 2007, National Development and Reform Commission approved Jinchuan Group’s purchase project of

AllegianceMiningNL. AllegianceMiningNL, a small mining enterprise in Sydney, established in 1993 and listed on

Australian Stock Exchange and hold 100% equity of Avebury nickel sulfide project. Avebury nickel sulfide mine is located at

6 Brief introduction to enterprises

6.1 Aluminum Corporation of China (CHALCO)

The Aluminum Corporation of China (CHINALCO) was established on the basis of some aluminum institutions and

enterprises owned by the central government in 2001 as a trial of the authorized investment institution and the state-holding

company to operate, manage and supervise the state-owned assets of the affiliated wholly-owned subsidiaries, holding

companies and enterprises with state-owned equity, maintain and increase their value and exercise the rights of investor. The

total assets of the CHINALCO reached 152.6 billion yuan in 2006. It reported profits of 22.5 billion yuan on sales revenue of

105.5 billion yuan in the year.

CHINALCO has formed a development structure consisting of the light metal sector (aluminum), heavy metal sector

(copper) and rare metal (molybdenum, titanium) by means of establishing new projects, expansion, technical reform and

assets restructuring in accordance with the state industrial policies. It owns the largest molybdenum and titanium material

production and R&D base of China and is the second largest supplier of alumina and the third largest electrolytic aluminum

manufacturer of the world. CHINALCO developed a number of technologies with independent intellectual property rights

best represented by "Ore Dressing Bayer Alumina Production Processing" and realized a historic transfer of aluminum

production equipment and technologies from introduction to export, featuring relative strong international competitiveness.

Aluminum Corporation of China Limited (CHALCO), controlled by CHINALCO, has listed in Hong Kong, New York

and Shanghai. China Aluminum Group has developed 150 members with CHINALCO playing a leading role, covering

different sectors of non-ferrous metal and enjoying great influence. CHINALCO signed strategic cooperation agreement with

a number of provinces (municipalities, autonomous regions) with more than 50 member enterprises, branches and

subsidiaries distributed in 20 provinces (municipalities, autonomous regions).

The strategic plan of CHINALCO is to build four business sectors, namely the light metal sector (aluminum), heavy

metal sector (copper), rare metal (dominant ores) and non-ferrous metal project building with general contracting as the core

business. With the plan, CHINALCO aims to transfer from a professional aluminum mineral company to an international

multi-metal mining company and grow into a world leading multi-metal mining company. While growing the aluminum

mining sector with CHALCO, the parent company focuses on developing the copper sector and the rare earth sector and

relevant construction and technical services. The copper sector and the rare earth sector has grown stably and cathode copper

and copper processing materials, molybdenum extract ore and titanium processing products grew from nothing and the output

of these products reached 220,000 tons, 140,000 tons, 28,000 tons and 5,000 tons respectively in 2006, taking a leading

position of the same field in China. CHINALCO increased investment of more than 10 billion yuan in Yunnan Copper Group

by means of buying shares of the copper group and the actually paid-in investment reached nearly 10 billion yuan in cash.

The company also invested 2 billion yuan in Yunnan for advanced copper processing projects. CHINALCO held 49% shares

of new Yunnan Copper Group after the share increasing. It was the largest industrial merger of the non-ferrous industry of

China for CHINALCO to increase investment and shares in Yunnan Cooper Group. With advantage complementary between

CHINALCO and Yunnan Copper Group, CHINALCO rapidly completed its layout in geological prospecting, mining and

dressing, smelting and advanced processing of copper and made breakthroughs in the long-term strategic intention of

growing and strengthening the copper sector. Since then CHINALCO had controlled copper ore mining and smelting

enterprises such as Daye Non-ferrous Metals Company, Yunnan Copper Group and Peru Copper Inc., controlled nearly 20

million tons of copper resources and owned advanced copper processing enterprises such as CHINALCO Luoyang Copper

Co. Ltd. and CHINALCO Shanghai Copper Co. Ltd.

Minmatals Industry Park with Yingkou municipal government and acquired 20km2 of land in the coastal industry base for the

first level development and building the Minmetals Industry Park centering on raw material supply, iron and steel product

processing and distribution, logistics and real estate development.

6.3 Yunnan Chihong Zn&Ge Co. Ltd.

Yunnan Chihong Zn&Ge Co. Ltd. (Chihong Zn&Ge for short) was established on July 18, 2000 and listed in the A Share

market on April 20, 2004. It ranks Top 100 non-ferrous smelting company of China and the first enterprise in Yunnan

province named as one of the first circular economy trial unit by the central government. It has a staff of more than 9,000

persons. It has the capacity to mine and dress 600,000-800,000 tons of ore, 160,000 tons of electrolytic zinc, 100,000 tons of

electrolytic plumbum, 60,000 tons of zinc alloy, 80,000 tons of refined plumbum, 200,000 tons of germanium, 320,000 tons

of sulfur acid, 10,000 tons of ammonium sulfate, 150 tons of silver and 120kg gold, recover more than 400 tons of cadmium,

copper and bismuth a year and generate 52 million kilowatt-hour of power with the waste heat. The company has stuck to the

new industrialization path of "high technological content, outstanding economic benefits, lower resource consumption, less

environment pollution and full exertion of the advantages of human resource", resulting in rapid growth of output and

obvious improvement of operation quality. Especially in 2006, the products, output and benefits of the company were

significantly increased with completion and putting into production of Huize Mine and Qujing Non-ferrous Metal project for

"deepening comprehensive development and utilization of resources and environmental protection and energy conservation

technology reform" and continuous price rising of the non-ferrous metals in the international market. It produced 224,374.66

tons of plumbum and zinc, germanium products containing 10,188.56kg of germanium, 59,380.68kg of silver ingot and

223,891.66tons of sulfur acid and reported net profits of 1,036,468,700 yuan on the sales revenue of 4,457,442,400 yuan. The

total industrial output value (current value) was 4,295,450,000 yuan and the paid-in taxes (taxes payable) were 538,280,000

yuan. Chihong Zn&Ge's stock created record three No.1 in the history of Shenzhen Stock Exchange and Shanghai Stock

Exchange in 2006, i.e. the highest earnings per share, the highest share price and the best dividend scheme. Chihong Zn&Ge

was brought into the CSI 300 Index after being chosen by the SSE Constituent Index.

The predecessor of Chihong Zn&Ge, Yunnan Huize Plumbum&Zn Mine, was initiated in 1951 and one of the 156 major

construction projects in the first Five-Year Plan. It is the first enterprise adopting the enrichment technology of low-grade

mineral intergrowth with fuming process and the only one that can process plumbum-zinc oxide ore and plumbum-zinc

sulfuration ores. With more than 50 years of development, Chihong Zn&Ge has diversified from a single product to more

than 20 products from four lines, namely plumbum, Zinc, Germanium and sulfur acid. It is the first enterprise abstracting

germanium from plumbum-zinc ore for the state-of-the-art national defense projects and made great contribution for

development of the non-ferrous industry.

Chihong Zn&Ge is a large-scale state-controlled modern enterprise integrating mine prospecting, ore mining, dressing,

smelting, chemical industry and scientific research functions. It has owned a number of mines and smelting bases in Qujing,

Zhaotong, Huize of Yunnan and Ningnan, Sichuan, and holding companies in Hulunbeier, Inner Mongolia and Jianshui,

Yunnan. The mines of Yunnan Huize Qilin Plant have a large reserve, high grade and are rich of valuable metals. The

plumbum and zinc reserves for industrial mining exceed 3.14 million tons and the prospective reserves are expected to

exceed 8 million tons. The company carried out the "advanced development and utilization of resources and environmental

protection and energy conservation technology reform" project in 2003 relying on the resource advantages. It adopted world

leading large-scale ore mining, dressing and lifting transport equipment and technologies and DCS control operation,

formulated an intellectual information network integrating underground and ground voice, image and data collecting and

processing functions and realized ore dressing automation. The "mine paste cementation-stuffing mining technology" and the

"phasal ore grinding and phasal dressing technology" independently developed by the company have significantly improved

the underground mining safety, effectively avoided geological disasters, and sharply reduced the total power consumption of

mining and dressing. The technologies represent the advanced technical level of the ore mining industry. The crude plumbum

ore smelting project of Qujing adopted the top blowing-sinking oxygen enrichment technology and the exhaust sulfur dioxide

concentration is lower than the state emission standards (GB16297-1996, Integrated Emission Standard of Air Pollutant,

China Business Guide

� 110 �

330ppm), achieving good benefits in both environmental protection and energy conservation. Chihong Zn&Ge adopted the

oversize fluosolid furnace and world leading automatic zinc peeling technology for the zinc production. The successful

application of automatic zinc peeling technology is unique in China. The company set up large plate, coordinated anode

automatic vertical mould casting, cathode plate continuous casting and automatic cathode plate production lines for plumbum

electrolyzing and refining and took a lead in the general energy conservation and production efficiency of plumbum

electrolyzing in China. The production systems all adopted DCS automatic control technologies which are the most advanced

technology and equipment in the plumbum and zinc smelting enterprises home and abroad.

Yunnan Chihong Zn&Ge Co. Ltd. will inherit the market-oriented and rational prosperity concept, the resource

management concept of making scientific arrangement and refined operation, the environmental protection concept of being

environment friendly to realize harmonious development. The company will grasp the opportunity of being one of the first

trials of circular economy and grow the company into a modern enterprise with international competitiveness and world

leading technologies, management and benefits to contribute to Yuannan's economic development and the non-ferrous

industry development of China. Aiming at high efficient utilization and resource recycling, the company will stick to the

conservation development, clean development and security development mode with the emission and energy consumption

reduction, resource reuse and recycling as core and "lower consumption, lower emission and high efficiency" as the main

tasks.

The people's government of all provinces, autonomous regions and municipalities, ministries and commissions of the

State Council and institutions directly affiliated to the State Council:

The State Council has approved the Opinions on Integrating Mineral Resource Exploitation jointly submitted by the

Ministry of Land and Resources, the National Development and Reform Commission, the Ministry of Public Security, the

Ministry of Supervision, the Ministry of Finance, the Ministry of Commerce, the State Administration for Industry and

Commerce, the State Environmental Protection Administration and the State Administration of Work Safety and now printed

and distributed to you. You are requested to carry through the Opinions earnestly.

General Office, the State Council

Attachment: Opinions on Integrating Mineral Resource Exploitation

Integrating the mineral resource exploitation is an important means to address the irrational distribution of mineral

resource exploitation projects and realize scalized and intensive exploitation, basic works to effectively rectify the disordered

mineral exploitation order and an effective way to restructure the mineral industry and to enhance changes of the economic

growth means of the mineral industry. It is of significance to build a resource-effective and environment-friendly society and

embark on a new industrialization path. The local governments made efforts to rectify major minerals such as coal while

rectifying and regulating the mineral resource exploitation order according to requirements of the Circular on Rectifying and

Standardizing Mineral Resource Exploitation Order from the State Council (Guo Fa [2005] No.28) and made progresses.

However, there are some problems to be addressed urgently: some local governments valued administrative efforts instead of

the market and economic rules in the practice, harming the interests of the state and the legal rights and interests of the mine

owners. Some local governments made little progress in the practice because they did not completely understand the

significance of the rectification works and were afraid of difficulties; some mining enterprises that broke the relevant laws

and regulations tried to put off or even avoid closedown by the name of rectification. In order to further enhance and

standardize the rectification works, the following opinions are set out:

I. Guideline thought

Restructure the mineral resources that the mining enterprises mined legally and the production elements of the mining

enterprises and gradually form a new structure with the large-scale mining groups as the main body and harmonious

development of the large, medium and small mining enterprises by means of acquisition, purchasing shares and merger so as

to optimize the resource allocation, distribution of mineral exploitation and enhance the guarantee capability of the mineral

resource to economic and social sustainable development with Deng Xiaoping's theory and the important thought of "Three

Represents" as guideline, carry through the scientific outlook to development, use the economic, legal and necessary

administrative means in combination with the requirements of industrial policies and industrial structure restructuring and

according to the requirements of sustainable development.

II. Purposes and missions

The rectification is designed to obviously improve the situation of "a great number, small sized and dispersed" mining

enterprises and reasonable mineral exploitation distribution, optimize the mineral enterprise structure, significantly improve

the work safety conditions and ecological environment of the mining area, and significantly enhance the guarantee capability

of mineral industry for sustainable development of economy and society of China.

(I) Reasonable mineral exploitation distribution. Formulate a mineral right configuration plan according to the actual

situation of the mineral resource distribution, geological conditions and the mineral resource planning, and re-divide the

mining area boundary and decide the exploitation size. Only one mining right is awarded to one mining area to end the

� 117 �

Mining

problem of a large mine with undersized mining efforts or several mining rights. The mining right configuration of important

mining areas and minerals shall meet the planning through the integration.

(II) Significantly optimize the mining enterprise structure. The mineral resources will centralize towards the leading

enterprises with advanced mining technologies, high resource utilization level, excellent working safety conditions and

equipment and effective geological protection measures by washing out the inferior enterprises and offering support to the

strong enterprises. With integration, the mining enterprises reach a certain scale with obviously improved intensive

production level and reducing number of mining enterprises.

(III) Significantly improve the exploitation and utilization level. Employ scientific mining methods and ore dressing

technique so as to enable the resource recycle ratio and recovery ratio to the designed standards and the intergrown and

associated minerals to be utilized. The solid waste such as mullock and gangue are stored safely and explored again. With

integration, the mineral resource exploitation and utilization rate is significantly increased.

(IV) The production safety conditions are significantly improved. Earnestly observe the safe production laws and codes,

enforce safety supervision, make the mining enterprises to take the major responsibilities of safe production, improve the safe

production technologies and equipment and safety awareness of the workers and improve the safe production conditions to

prevent occurrence of important and serious accidents. With integration, the hidden safety troubles caused by the

unreasonable mining distribution are eliminated.

(V) Obviously improve the ecological environment of the mine. Establish and improve the mine environment

rectification and recovery deposit system and draw out the mine ecological environment protection and comprehensive

administration plan in accordance with the Instruction on Gradually Establishing Mine Environment Rectification and

Ecological Environment Recovery Responsibility System issued by the Ministry of Finance, the Ministry of Land and

Resources and the State Environmental Protection Administration. With integration, the waste will be stored and disposed in

a unified way; the pollutants are treated in a unified way and discharged after reaching the standards. The total discharge of

main pollutants in the main mines is reduced significantly and the environment pollution accidents and ecological

environment damage practice are prevented and controlled.

III. Principles

(I) Unified planning and step-by-step implementation. Integration works shall be implemented step by step according to

the mineral resource planning, the central government's control over the gross volume of the relevant mineral resources and

regulations on the industry restructuring and industrial development planning.

(II) The large enterprises merge the small ones and the excellent enterprises merge the inferior ones. The integration is

conducted according to the resource distribution while observing the market and economic rules. By means of enterprise

restructuring, system reform and reconstruction, the large mining enterprises with advanced technologies, management and

equipment merge the others.

(III) Underline the main points and offer direction according to their categories. Integration is made mainly to the small

mines and small mine clusters that affect the unified planning and exploitation of large mines and important minerals and

dominant minerals that have important impact to the national economic development. Integration will be conducted

according to the actual situation of the region, mineral and mining enterprises.

(IV) Government direction and market operation. Base on the resources with the mining right as the binding tie, stick to

combining the government direction with the market operation, use economic, legal and necessary administrative means to

promote mineral resource exploitation integration.

(V) Make overall plan and take all elements into consideration, be open and fair. Give attentions to all parties' interests

and protect the legal rights and interests of the mining right holders. Actively and prudently promote the integration works to

secure the social stability. Disclose the integration process and accept supervision of the public.

IV. Integration scope

(I) Important minerals. Coal, iron, manganese, copper, aluminium, plumbum, zinc, molybdenum, gold, tungsten, tin,

stibium, rare earth, phosphor, potassium salts, and other minerals that have important impact to the economic and social

development of various areas.

(II) Main mining areas. The small mines that impact unified planning and exploitation of large mines, one mine with

China Business Guide

� 118 �

several mining rights, undersized exploitation to the large mines, small mine clusters and mining areas located in the fragile

geological environment.

(III) Other minerals. The mines with backward exploitation methods, technologies and equipment and lower resource

utilization level. The mines with production scale not meeting the design requirements in a long run and lower management

level, hidden safety troubles, and poor social and environmental benefits.

V. Work arrangement

Integration will be conducted with the province-level administration as a unit. The provinces (autonomous regions,

municipalities) shall complete the formulation and archive of the master integration plan before the end of March 2007. By

the end of 2007, integration of three or more important minerals and five or more mining areas shall be completed; by the end

of 2008, the integration work shall be completed basically. The integration works can be divided into four stages, naming the

Administration of Work Safety:

In order to carry out the spirit of the Decision of the State Council on Promulgating the “Interim Provisions on

Promoting Industrial Structure Adjustment” for Implementation (Guo Fa [2005] No. 40), standardize the lead and zinc trade

investment acts and quicken the structure adjustment, the guiding suggestions as follows are presented.

1. Importance of standardizing the investment acts in lead and zinc industries and promoting structure

adjustment

Lead and zinc are basic raw materials closely related with industry development and social life. The industry mainly

consists of lead and zinc mining and smelting. By the end of 2005, there have been 411 mining enterprises above statistics

threshold and 466 lead and zinc smelting enterprises. The production capacity at the end of 2005 was about 2.2mil tons of

rough lead, 2.8mil tons of electrolyzed lead and 3.4mil tons of zinc.

In recent years, the lead smelting technology of oxidizing in bottom blowing furnace and reduction smelting in blast

furnace has been successfully applied. Advanced ISA furnaces and Kaldo furnaces are imported. Fluldized roasting of zinc

smelting process is applied, resulting in high sulfur utilization rate and qualified tailgas emission. The comprehensive

application of lead and zinc smelting enterprises’ resources achieved obvious effects with the recovery of 13 kinds of rare

valuable metals including gold and silver etc. The technical progress promotes the upgrading of the lead and zinc smelting

process in China. It is the time for washing out the outdated technology.

Along with the booming of the industry, the gross and structure problems of the lead and zinc industry and some

structural and systematic profound contradictions leading to investment fever have become arresting, mainly presented as

follows.

China Business Guide

� 152 �

（1）Shortage of resources seriously influences the sustainable development of the lead and zinc industry. Smelting

enterprises have developed in an extensive mode for years. Limited by enterprise’s power and resource survey degree,

construction of small-scale mines is dominant, resulting in serious shortage of lead and zinc resources in domestic market,

less than 50% raw material self-supply rate in large and middle-sized smelting enterprises and continuous price increase.

Tight concentrate supply causes mine abuse, rising import and resource fights among smelteries. Lack of resources restricts

the sustainable development of the lead and zinc industry and seriously influences the industry structure adjustment in China.

（2）Structural contradiction is sharp, and the industry profit shifts to mining industry excessively. Currently, the lead

and zinc smelting capacity is higher than the market demand and the mining capacity. The structural contradiction causes the

insufficient operation of smelting capacity and shifts the industry profit to mining industry greatly. It is difficult for mines and

smelteries to share the profit, resulting in continuous rise of the raw material cost percentage in the total cost. In 2005, the

concentrated lead and zinc total in mines was only 48% of the output of the lead and zinc smelted products, but the profit of

that was 1.43 times of the smelting industry. From Jan. to May this year, the concentrated lead and zinc total in mines was

only 45% of the output of the lead and zinc smelted products, but the profit of that was 1.5 times of the smelting industry. If

no recovery of valuable metals, the profit level of the smelting industry will be difficult to be kept.

（3）The industry concentration degree decreases and the enterprise’s competitiveness is low. In 2001, the output shares

of top 10 lead and zinc enterprises were 52% and 64%, which dropped to 41% and 49% in 2005 respectively. The

one-decade-above boom of lead and zinc industry was only the simple increase of the quantity and output of independent

mines and smelteries and had no real improvement of international competitiveness.

（4）The lead smelting process and technical equipment are outdated. Underdeveloped zinc smelting capacity still has a

certain percentage. Lead smelting is a metal smelting industry with outdated technical equipment, poorest production

conditions, lowest sulfur recovery rate and heaviest pollution in the whole nonferrous metal smelting industry. Some

enterprises still continue using the agglomeration boiler and disk or even simple agglomeration disk and simple furnace for

lead smelting, which are forbidden according to the industry policy. Currently, about 30% of lead smelting capacity applies

outdated process. Some of zinc smelteries also apply outdated local methods or simple Muffle furnaces, manger-shape

furnaces, horizontal tanks, small vertical tanks to bake and then chill down and dedust with simple facilities to smelter zinc or

zinc oxide.

（5）Big environment influences, and some enterprises waste resources seriously. SO2 flue and lead dust produced from

the agglomeration process of outdated lead smelting process are not recovered, resulting in bad production environment and

serious pollution to environment due to the vent of SO2 and dusts. The zinc smelting with boiling-bed roasters also has the

problem of the improper treatment of hot-acid leaching process of roasted zinc dusts containing hydrargyrum, cadmium,

arsenic and other soluble harmful heavy metal ions, causing the contamination to ground water. Many small-sized lead and

zinc smelteries often directly drain out waste water without treatment, resulting in the pollution to water sources by heavy

metal ions, benzene and hydroxybenzene and other injurants. In addition, there are excessive middle and small-sized lead and

zinc smelteries. Some of them have annual output less than 2000 tons and do not recover other valuable metals. These

enterprises seriously waste resources and belong to those to be washed out according to the industry policy.

（6）The blind investment in lead and zinc smelting industry is serious. Overseas reduction of smelting capacity caused

the continuous increase of lead and zinc market price after 2004. Meanwhile, the explosion of domestic downstream

industry’s capacity stimulated the dramatic rise of the market demand at the stage, changing the situation of about 1/3 lead

and zinc products consumed through export and causing the boom of investment in lead and zinc industries, especially in the

smelteries. Since the lack of systematic lead and zinc smelting enterprise access conditions and the missing of effective

supervision to the construction of lead and zinc smelting, new projects breaching industry policies cannot be forbidden and

the size of them are small. New small smelteries often apply outdated process and reduce investment cost to obtain economic

profit through jeopardizing environmental protection.

Investigation shows the accumulated completed investment of lead and zinc smelteries above statistics threshold

increased by 1.4 times and mine concentration investment increased by 1.4 times in 2004. In 2005, the accumulated

completed investment of lead and zinc smelteries grew by 70% year on year and mine concentration by 61.9%. Currently,

totally 169 lead and zinc projects with planned gross investment of 12.5bil yuan are under construction. 132 of them are for

� 153 �

Mining

capacity expansion with planned total investment of 11.2bil yuan. 74 new projects with total investment of 2bil yuan started

in 2006, including 60 projects for capacity expansion with planned investment nearly 1.7bil yuan while average construction

scale dropping down by 8.8%. The total capacity of 62 projects with clarified size is above 3.15mil tons, including 30 lead

smelting projects under construction with capacity about 1.5mil tons, 32 zinc smelting projects with capacity about 1.65mil

tons. There are also a lot of projects under plan (about 400 thd tons of capacity for lead smelting and 1.2 mil tons of capacity

for zinc smelting.) If all the projects come into operation, the capacity of 1.9 mil tons of lead and 2.9 mil tons of zinc will be

increased. Although there are 191 mine investment projects, most of them are small mines with low supply of lead and zinc

concentrates.

Some investors, with the price increase stimulus and the optimistic market expectation, concentrated on smelting

projects construction without considering resource and environment conditions, resulting in continuous and quick expansion

of lead and zinc smeltery investment and a drastic explosion of smelting capacity in a short term. Upon the full completion

and operation of all the operations, the smelting capacity will be seriously above the mine supply. The insufficiency of mines

will then restrict the utilization of smelting capacity. Meanwhile, the environment problem of small smelteries will be more

arresting. Industry structure adjustment should be timely accelerated. The investment acts in lead and zinc industry shall be

standardized.

2. Guidelines and main objectives of lead and zinc industry structure adjustment

（1）Guidelines. Centering around standardizing the investment acts and changing the growth mode and focusing on

structure adjustment, execute macro guidance in accordance with the principles of structure optimization, technical progress,

scientific plan, energy-saving and consumption reduction, environmental protection and safe production to realize investment

standardization, orderly development, improve enterprise’s equipment level, strengthen environmental protection, adjust

industry structure, improve product structure and promote sustainable development of lead and zinc industry.

（2）Main objectives. Keep the basic balance of supply and demand of lead and zinc, develop orderly according to the

plan and restrict the blind growth of lead and zinc smelting capacity. After washing out laggard production capacity in 2010,

the refined lead annual capacity shall be under 4mil tons and the zinc annual capacity under 5 mil tons. Reinforce the

development and utilization of domestic resource, speed up the implementation of “going global” strategy, improve raw

material supply, greatly develop lead and zinc reuse industry for a recycle resource consumption share of 30% of total

consumption.

As for enterprise’s organization, under the precondition of controlling the blind growth of smelting capacity, support the

good and wash out the bad, adjust structure, promote the union and restructure of key smelting and mine enterprises to enable

the output of key smelting enterprises to reach 70% of the gross output.

In the aspects of technical structure, oxygen-enriched intensive smelting, ISA furnace smelting, Kaldo furnace smelting

and other advanced lead smelting process with high resource recovery rate, low energy consumption and qualified

environmental protection indexes shall be applied in lead smelting. The integrated energy consumption of lead smelting is

600kg standard coal/ton and the general recovery rate is 97%. Crude lead smelting has the coke consumption of 350kg/ton,

electrolyzed lead with power consumption reduced to 110kwh/ton, total sulfur utilization rate above 95% and recycle water

utilization rate of 95%. For zinc smelting, rectified zinc has integrated energy consumption of 1900kg standard coal/ton,

electrolyzed zinc with energy consumption of 1700kg standard coal/ton, integrated smelting recovery rate of 98%, distilled

zinc with coal consumption 1250kg/ton, electrolized zinc with power consumption reduced to 2900kwh/ton, total sulfur

utilization rate above 96%, recycle water utilization rate of 95%, qualified emission of SO2 and dusts and valuable metal

recovery rate of 95%.

3. Main policies and measures

（1）Strengthen the guidance on industry policy and industry planning and layout

In accordance with the requirement of sustainable development, formulate the industry development policy for lead and

zinc industry and do well in planning and arrangement with the integrated consideration on resources, environment, energy

and other factors. Closely combine the planned new capacity with the objective for washing out outdated enterprises for

structure adjustment, hurry up in formulating the lead and zinc smelting market access conditions, control rigidly in the
