中国稀土集团拟收购盛和资源:旨在间接控制五角大楼供应商股份
China Rare Earth Group moves to acquire Shenghe Resources to capture indirect stake in Pentagon supplier
- 央企巨头中国稀土集团已就兼并商业采矿企业盛和资源展开收购谈判,旨在将该体制下残存的非国有开采配额全数收归国有集中控制。 State-owned conglomerate China Rare Earth Group initiated takeover negotiations to absorb commercial miner Shenghe Resources, centralizing the regime's remaining non-state extraction quotas.
- 拟议中的收购将使北京间接获得加州芒廷帕斯(Mountain Pass)稀土矿运营商MP材料(MP Materials)3%的股权,从而使党国资本与美国国防部共同出现在同一股东名册上。 The proposed acquisition grants Beijing an indirect 3 percent equity stake in California's Mountain Pass mine operator MP Materials, placing the party-state on the same shareholder registry as the US Department of Defense.
- 在西方防务监测机构警告中国国家资本正在渗透盟国稀土供应链之后,盛和资源紧急发布证券交易所公告,否认控股权发生转移。 Shenghe issued an emergency stock exchange filing denying the transfer of controlling equity after Western defense monitors warned of Chinese state capital infiltrating allied rare earth supply chains.
据澳大利亚矿业新闻网(Mining.com.au)报道,国有大型央企中国稀土集团已展开收购谈判,拟收购盛和资源的控股权,进而间接控制五角大楼在美国本土主要稀土供应商的股份。盛和资源持有总部位于拉斯维加斯的MP材料(MP Materials)3%的股权,后者运营着由五角大楼注资的加州芒廷帕斯稀土矿。这种掩护正在逐渐失效。面对西方防务部门的密切审视,盛和资源周日紧急向上海证券交易所发布公告,否认其实际控制人国有科研院所计划转让控股权。
这笔交易践行了典型的借口伪装策略。多年来,党国规划者默许盛和资源以灵活的市场化企业面目示人,使其得以绕过外国投资安全审查,悄然收购澳大利亚、坦桑尼亚以及美国本土的关键战略矿床。如今,这层伪装正在褪去。正如北京在2021年整合国有矿企以绝对垄断重稀土配额一样,国资委目前正在推行激进的卡特尔垄断整合,旨在将所有海外矿产资产全数纳入党的直接纪律与意志管控之下。而紧随国家资源卡特尔之后的,往往就是出口管制禁令。
中共高层始终将关键矿产视为地缘政治勒索的杠杆,而非单纯的商业大宗商品。当普通中国民众在毫无防护的环境中默默承受着国内粗放提炼所带来的严重剧毒生态代价时,党国体制却将这份国内牺牲转化为针对西方防务承包商的供应链武器化工具。这种控制是绝对的。只要任何中国企业在法律上仍绝对隶属于中共中央的指令,西方盟友民主国家就绝不能寄托于名义上的企业独立性。在盟友供应链彻底绕过中国加工卡特尔之前,西方防务制造业将始终受制于中南海的一票否决权。
State-owned conglomerate China Rare Earth Group opened takeover negotiations to acquire controlling equity in Shenghe Resources, moving to capture an indirect stake in the Pentagon’s primary domestic rare earth supplier, Mining.com.au reported. Shenghe holds three percent of Las Vegas-based MP Materials, the operator of California’s Mountain Pass mine funded by the Pentagon. The camouflage is wearing thin. Facing Western defense scrutiny, Shenghe rushed out an emergency Shanghai Stock Exchange filing on Sunday denying any ownership transfer by its controlling state research institute.
The transaction executes a playbook of pretextual cloaking. For years, party planners allowed Shenghe to present itself as a flexible commercial enterprise, enabling it to bypass foreign investment reviews and quietly buy up critical deposits in Australia, Tanzania, and the United States. That facade is ending. Just as Beijing centralized state miners in 2021 to control heavy rare earth quotas, SASAC is now pursuing aggressive cartel consolidation to bring all external assets under direct party discipline. Export curbs always follow state resource cartels.
Party leaders treat critical minerals as instruments of geopolitical extortion rather than commercial goods. While ordinary Chinese citizens bear the toxic environmental toll of uncontained domestic refining, the party-state converts that domestic sacrifice into supply chain weaponization against Western defense contractors. Control is absolute. Allied democracies cannot rely on nominal corporate independence when every firm remains legally subordinated to central party directives. Until allied supply chains bypass Chinese processing cartels entirely, Western defense manufacturing remains vulnerable to Zhongnanhai’s strategic veto.
雪球与东方财富网上的民族主义评论员纷纷欢呼该报道涉及的操作是对华盛顿的“地缘将死”,但产业分析师警告,直接的国有控股必将立即触发美国外国投资委员会(CFIUS)的强制剥离指令,并加速盟友稀土供应链的对华脱钩。
Nationalist commentators on Xueqiu and Eastmoney celebrated the reported maneuver as a geopolitical checkmate against Washington, while industry analysts warned that direct state ownership would trigger immediate CFIUS divestment mandates and hasten allied supply chain decoupling.
国家网信办严厉限流剖析美军防务供应链战略脆弱性的讨论,同时勒令国内财经门户网站广泛转发盛和资源周日晚间的辟谣澄清公告,以平息国际监管机构的审视与警惕。
The Cyberspace Administration of China throttled discussions analyzing the strategic vulnerability of US defense supply chains, while domestic financial portals were ordered to circulate Shenghe's Sunday evening denial to tamp down international regulatory scrutiny.
盛和资源拥有超过67亿元人民币的海外资产,占其资产负债表近28%。除持有MP材料的股份外,该公司还控制着澳大利亚的峰值稀土(Peak Rare Earths)及坦桑尼亚恩古阿拉(Ngualla)矿床,实际上扮演着北京在海外进行战略矿产收购的主要商业白手套工具。
Shenghe holds over 6.7 billion yuan in overseas assets, comprising nearly 28 percent of its balance sheet. In addition to its MP Materials stake, the firm controls Australia's Peak Rare Earths and the Ngualla deposit in Tanzania, functioning as Beijing's primary international mineral acquisition vehicle.
