Abstract: Issues exist in China’s REE development due to underrated v alues and irrational allocation on REE.A scientific evaluation of REE’s values is key to promote its sustainable utilization.This paper,based on the values of natural resources and combined with REE’s particularity,concludes that REE’s values,not utterly equal to their economic outputs,shall include a market value in economic transaction and a non-market value which can not,or hard,be realized.A transformation in reviews,cost estimation method,resources management and utilization during REE’s development shall be made to reprice REE’s values and to provide theoretical and technical support to impose tax on REE.

Key words: REE, value, cost benefit, asymmetry

摘要： 目前我国稀土资源开发利用过程中存在诸多问题,其根本原因在于低估了稀土资源价值以及对其价值的不合理分配。科学系统的认识和评价稀土价值是促进稀土资源可持续利用的关键。文章基于自然资源价值学说,结合稀土资源的特殊性,认为稀土资源价值不完全等同于其经济产出价值,其总价值应该包括可在经济交易中体现的市场价值和不能(或很难)在市场交易中实现的非市场价值。基于对稀土资源价值的再认识,提出了在稀土资源开发利用过程中需要转变思维方式,转变成本核算方法,转变资源管理模式,转变利用方式等相应政策。稀土资源价值的重构可为稀土资源定价及其征税提供理论和技术支撑。
