China to Impose Export Controls on Antimony and Superhard Materials from September 15
Aug 15, 2024, 12:35 PM
China is set to impose export controls on antimony and superhard materials starting September 15, as announced by the Ministry of Commerce and the General Administration of Customs. The move is aimed at safeguarding national security and fulfilling international obligations, such as non-proliferation. Antimony is a strategic metal used in flame-retardants, batteries, and munitions, and the decision aligns with international practices. The export restrictions are not targeted at any specific country or region, and exports that comply with relevant regulations will be permitted. This measure is part of China's broader strategy to tighten control over global critical-mineral supplies, with antimony prices having surged recently.
