Fujian-based producer of tungsten and rare-earth products plus lithium-ion battery cathode materials through a subsidiary.
Fujian-based producer of tungsten and rare-earth products plus lithium-ion battery cathode materials through a subsidiary.
Sells tungsten and rare earths at prices that follow commodity markets, so metal price cycles move results alongside volumes. The battery-cathode arm sells to cell makers and is more exposed to electric-vehicle demand. A Fujian provincial state-owned metals group controls it.
In one line: A tungsten/battery-materials hybrid, no direct US peer.
Moat: narrow (scale, process know-how). Vertically integrated from tungsten ore to carbide tools, giving cost and quality control.
Headquarters: Xiamen, China · Founded: 1997 · Employees: 19,486
