The difficult points and development countermeasures analysis on Yunnan germanium industry chain

Yunnan´s germanium reserves is plentiful, but the level of industrial development lag behind a lot, so the analysis of the rare metals industrial chain development level is very important, which can provide the basis for making development strategy of rare metals. Based on the status quo of germanium industry and the theory of industry chain, we develop the germanium industrial chain in this article. Followed by the analysis of germanium industry chain, development priorities and difficulties through the extension of industrial chain, upstream and downstream integration, recycling system, remanufacturing technology, service providing and supporting industries, and propose development strategies and suggestions to solve these problems.
