SMM, April 8: The rare earth permanent magnets index strengthened in the afternoon of April 8, with China Northern Rare Earth's share price also showing a significant increase. By the close of trading on April 8, China Northern Rare Earth's shares had risen 5.14% to RMB 23.94 per share. In terms of news, China Northern Rare Earth announced on April 8 that its net profit for the first quarter of 2025 is expected to increase significantly by 716.49%-735.70%. Additionally, the company's 2024 annual performance report showed that it achieved operating income of approximately RMB 32.966 billion, a decrease of 1.58% year-on-year, and net profit attributable to shareholders of the listed company of approximately RMB 1.004 billion, a decrease of 57.64% year-on-year. The performance report of China Northern Rare Earth revealed that in 2024, due to factors such as weak global economic growth and lower-than-expected growth in downstream demand, the prices of major rare earth products, represented by Pr-Nd oxide, generally showed a fluctuating downward trend. The average price declined year-on-year, and the overall performance of the rare earth market was weak. Faced with the unfavorable market situation of declining rare earth product prices, the company focused on its annual production and operation targets, thoroughly implemented new development concepts, built a new development paradigm, and took on the important task of being the main force in the construction of the "two rare earth bases." The company made overall plans and implemented comprehensive measures at all levels of production and operation, anchored its goals, overcame difficulties, and strived to reduce the impact of unfavorable factors on the company. Its high-quality development achieved new results, with production and sales volumes of major products reaching new highs. Although revenue and profits declined year-on-year, its operating performance remained at the forefront of the rare earth industry. Capacity utilisation rate and market share further increased, with the processing cost per ton of rare earth decreasing by 5.1% year-on-year and the comprehensive financing cost of interest-bearing liabilities further reducing. Key construction projects and industry chain mergers and acquisitions were promoted in an orderly manner, and the company's invested green mining, beneficiation, and smelting upgrading project for a new generation of rare earths has been completed and put into operation in its first phase. The company accelerated its transformation and upgrading towards high-end, digital intelligence, and green development, deepened reform and innovation, promoted ESG and other management improvements, increased R&D investment, optimized scientific research systems and mechanisms, strengthened performance appraisal and risk prevention and control, and accelerated the construction of the "two rare earth bases." Through overall planning and comprehensive measures, the company continuously improved the quality and efficiency of its high-quality development, laying a solid foundation for being the main force in the construction of the "two rare earth bases," completing the "14th Five-Year Plan," and becoming a world-class leader in the rare earth industry. This contributed to the stable and high-quality development of China's rare earth industry. China Northern Rare Earth's first-quarter performance forecast, disclosed on the same day, showed that after initial calculations by the financial department, the company expects to achieve a net profit attributable to shareholders of the parent company of RMB 425 million to RMB 435 million in the first quarter of 2025. This represents an increase of RMB 375 million to RMB 385 million compared to the same period last year, or an increase of 716.49% to 735.70% year-on-year. The company also expects to achieve a non-recurring profit and loss net profit attributable to shareholders of the parent company of RMB 429 million to RMB 439 million, representing an increase of RMB 425.3 million to RMB 435.3 million compared to the same period last year, or an increase of 11468.78% to 11738.45% year-on-year. Regarding the main reasons for the expected increase in first-quarter performance, China Northern Rare Earth stated that in the first quarter of 2025, due to factors such as tightened upstream raw material supply and downstream consumption stimulus policies, the overall activity of the rare earth market was better than the same period last year. The prices of major rare earth products, represented by Pr-Nd oxide, showed an upward trend with good transaction volumes. The company seized the favorable opportunity of market stabilization and improvement, focused on its annual production and operation targets, thoroughly implemented new development concepts, built a new development paradigm, and took on the important task of being the main force in the construction of the "two rare earth bases." The company comprehensively improved production line efficiency, continuously optimized raw material and product structures, deepened marketing model innovation with market demand as the guidance, strengthened marketing operations, and achieved year-on-year growth in production and sales volumes of major products. The company achieved significant results in cost reduction and efficiency improvement, with quality and efficiency improvements in rare earth products. Joint ventures, cooperation, and infrastructure technological transformation projects were promoted in an orderly manner, with continuous enhancement of scientific and technological innovation contributions. Management innovation drove the consolidation and enhancement of high-quality development quality and efficiency, with orderly advancement of ESG, compliance, and market value management. The coordinated advancement and efficient implementation of various work in the company's production and operation management laid a solid foundation for the significant year-on-year growth in the company's first-quarter performance. From China Northern Rare Earth's performance in the past year and the first quarter of this year, it is evident that fluctuations in the prices of rare earth products such as Pr-Nd are closely related to the production and operation of rare earth companies.

[SMM 크롬 플래시] 발테라-노섬 거래 가능성, 남아공 크롬 정광 시장 재편할까

[SMM 크롬 플래시] 발테라-노섬 거래 가능성, 남아공 크롬 정광 시장 재편할까

노섬 플래티넘은 8월 25일 남아프리카공화국의 주요 백금족 금속(PGM) 생산업체로부터 비요청적이고 탐색적이며 구속력 없는 접근을 받았으며, 이후 관심 당사자들의 제안을 요청하기 위한 전략적 경쟁 절차를 개시했다고 밝혔다. 발테라 플래티넘이 잠재적 입찰자로 널리 알려진 반면, 임팔라 플래티넘과 시반예-스틸워터는 관심이 없다고 밝혔다. 노섬은 관심 당사자들의 제안서 제출 마감일을 12월 1일로 정했으며, 잠재적 거래는 자산 수준 거래 또는 기업 거래의 형태를 취할 수 있다. 이번 잠재적 거래는 남아프리카공화국의 크롬 정광 시장에도 영향을 미친다. 노섬이 UG2 처리에서 크롬 생산량을 빠르게 확대해 왔기 때문이다. 노섬의 2026 회계연도 크롬 정광 생산량은 사상 최대인 169만 톤에 달했으며, 비전 2031 전략은 향후 5년간 200만 톤 이상의 크롬 정광 판매를 목표로 하고 있다. 발테라도 성장 전략에 따라 200만 톤 이상의 크롬 정광 판매를 목표로 하고 있다. 따라서 두 회사가 관련된 거래는 통합 PGM 포트폴리오 내에서 크롬의 전략적 중요성과 규모를 크게 높일 수 있지만, 최종 구조와 크롬 생산, 처리 및 판매에 대한 영향은 경쟁 절차의 결과에 따라 달라질 것이다.

마그네슘 시장, 석탄 가격 급등으로 하락세 깨져…생산업체 비용 부담 증가

8월에 접어들면서 마그네슘 시장은 장기간의 교착 상태에 빠진 듯 보였다. 7월의 감산 호재가 사라지고 1차 마그네슘 공급은 꾸준히 회복되었다. 한편, 해외 여름 비수기와 국내 다이캐스팅 비수기가 겹치면서 하류 주문이 부족했고 구매 심리는 바닥을 쳤다.

[SMM 마그네슘 시장 분석: 석탄 가격 급등이 마그네슘 시장에 불을 붙이다, 두 달간의 횡보 끝에 마침내 돌파, 감산과 재고 소진이 다음 랠리의 발판을 마련하다] 8월에 접어들면서 마그네슘 시장은 장기간의 교착 상태에 빠진 듯했다. 7월 감산에 따른 효과는 사라지고 1차 마그네슘 공급은 꾸준히 회복된 반면, 중국 외 지역의 여름 휴가와 국내 다이캐스팅 비수기가 겹치며 하류 주문은 드물었고 구매 심리는 빙점에 머물렀다. 수요와 공급이 모두 약세를 보이며 마그네슘 가격은 톤당 15,800~15,950위안의 좁은 범위에 단단히 고정되어 위아래로 움직일 여지가 거의 없었다. 8월 중하순에는 가격이 한때 톤당 15,750위안까지 하락하기도 했으며, 시장은 전반적으로 관망하는 분위기였다. 이미 두 달째 이어지고 있는 이 바닥권 횡보 국면이 언제 전환점을 맞이할지는 여전히 미지수였다.
