Modern Rare Earth Metals Industry in China | SpringerLink
The output of the rare earth smelting and extraction products of China in 1985–2014 is given in Table 1. The output increased annually and reached the historical maximum of 157,000 tons in 2006. Since 2007, the rare earth industry implemented total production control, so the rare earth output of China decreased gradually.
