中国稀土工业的发展历经50年代末至70年代初的起步阶段,从70年代中到目前的约20年中,由于采、选、冶方面接连取得重大的技术突破,已初步形成比较完整的工业体系,进入生产和应用的新时期。近年来,随着稀土用途的不断开发,稀土产品的市场逐年扩大,自1989年以来,稀土产品的消费量以10％的速度递增。高新技术的发展,促 The development of rare earth industry in China has been through the initial stages of the late 1950s to the early 1970s. From the mid-1970s to the present about 20 years, due to successive major technological breakthroughs in mining, ore dressing and smelting, a relatively complete industry has been initially formed System, into the new period of production and application. In recent years, with the continuous development of rare earth use, the market of rare earth products has expanded each year. Since 1989, the consumption of rare earth products has increased by 10%.
