China is ramping up its control over the export of strategic minerals to prevent illegal outflow from its production chain. This bold move covers every step—from mining and smelting to processing, transportation, manufacturing, sales, and export—ensuring each link is secure. 🔒
A spokesperson from the Ministry of Commerce explained, "The regulation of strategic minerals must start from the source, with strengthened control over the entire chain, including mining, smelting, processing, transportation, manufacturing, sales and export, in order to effectively prevent the illegal outflow of strategic minerals."
Both central and local authorities have been tasked with enhancing traceability systems and establishing regular management mechanisms. These measures safeguard key resources and promote their sustainable utilization, ultimately supporting long-term economic stability.
Imagine it like leveling up your favorite video game—every checkpoint matters to keep the system secure. With these comprehensive controls, China sets a high bar for protecting its vital resources and ensuring a robust supply chain. 🌟
