China finds new type of rare earth in Inner Mongolia www.chinadaily.com.cn

WUHAN -- A team of Chinese geologists has identified a large deposit of a previously unknown rare-earth mineral in North China's Inner Mongolia autonomous region.
The rare earth, officially named by the International Mineralogical Association as Huanghoite-(Nd), is a new carbonate mineral dominated by neodymium, the "magnet metal" that underpins electric-vehicle motors and offshore wind turbines.
Researchers from the China University of Geosciences (Wuhan) and the Inner Mongolia geological survey institute discovered the reserves in the mid-section of the main orebody within the Bayan Obo deposit, the world's largest rare-earth mine.
Zhao Laishi, who led the team, said the find reflects the deposit's intricate geochemistry and resource diversity.

Everything To Know About HIV/AIDS in Mongolia www.borgenproject.org

Mongolia is a vast country in East Asia, bordered by China and Russia, with a population of about 3.5 million people, nearly half of whom live in the capital city, Ulaanbaatar. Once part of the Mongol Empire and later a Soviet satellite, Mongolia has undergone a rapid political and economic transformation since the 1990s. Today, it is a democratic state with a growing, resource-based economy. However, the country still faces infrastructure gaps, urban-rural inequality and a fragile health system stretched across immense distances.
In the context of public health, Mongolia has been largely spared from large-scale epidemics. HIV prevalence remains low, but that does not mean the risk is absent. For a nation often overlooked in global health discussions, Mongolia’s quiet battle against HIV is a story of early success—and urgent, unfinished business. Here is information about HIV/AIDS in Mongolia and efforts to combat it.
The Prevalence of HIV/AIDS in Mongolia
Mongolia has maintained a low overall HIV prevalence, estimated at around 600 people living with HIV in 2023. Men account for a significantly larger proportion of cases than women. While the numbers remain low compared to other countries, the number of cases has been slowly increasing over time. This highlights the need for sustained prevention efforts and real awareness campaigns.
The country reports fewer than 100 AIDS-related deaths annually, a reflection of progress in raising awareness, early detection and improved access to antiretroviral therapy (ART). However, treatment coverage remains below international targets; approximately 39% of people living with HIV receive ART, falling short of the UNAIDS 95-95-95 goals aimed for 2030. Without adequate treatment, the virus risks spreading further, especially among vulnerable populations.
Key Populations Most Affected by HIV/AIDS
Sexual contact is the primary mode of transmission. Certain groups carry a disproportionate burden of HIV infection:
Men who have sex with men face stigma and discrimination, which discourages them from seeking timely treatment.
Sex workers are at higher risk due to multiple partners and inconsistent condom use, compounded by social barriers to health care.
Transgender people experience similar stigma, limiting their access to prevention and treatment services.
People who inject drugs face heightened risk due to needle sharing, with limited awareness of safe injection practices in Mongolia.
Poverty and HIV/AIDS in Mongolia
Poverty exacerbates vulnerability to HIV infection and limits access to health care services in Mongolia. Many people living in poverty, particularly in rural and ger (traditional tent) districts around Ulaanbaatar, face barriers such as transportation costs, limited health care infrastructure and social stigma. These challenges reduce access to testing and treatment, increasing the risk of undiagnosed and untreated infections.
Mongolia’s Efforts To Address HIV/AIDS
To address these challenges, Mongolia has implemented several programs focused on vulnerable populations and poverty reduction:
Since August 2023, the Payment-for-Results model has incentivized NGOs to increase HIV testing and outreach among key populations, linking funding to performance outcomes.
The Undarga microfinance program, piloted since 2010, targets women engaged in sex work, offering financial education and savings services to reduce reliance on risky income sources.
Mobile health clinics that have support from the World Health Organization (WHO) and international partners bring HIV testing and health care services to rural and nomadic communities, overcoming geographic and economic barriers.
Looking Ahead
Mongolia has kept HIV prevalence and AIDS-related deaths relatively low, but a slow rise in new cases, especially among impoverished and stigmatized groups, presents ongoing challenges. Addressing poverty’s role in HIV vulnerability and improving health care access through innovative programs and sustained investment will be essential for Mongolia to sustain its progress and meet international targets. With continued commitment, Mongolia can look forward to a healthier future.

China-Mongolia border port handles 2,000 China-Europe freight trains this year www.xinhuanet.com

The northern port of Erenhot in Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region, the largest land port on the China-Mongolia border, has recorded 2,000 entry and exit China-Europe freight trains this year, China Railway Hohhot Group Co., Ltd. said Wednesday.
This milestone underscores the success of an integrated transport model between Erenhot Port and Mongolia's Zamyn-Uud station designed to enhance efficiency.
Daily dialogues and monthly meetings streamline coordination on cross-border train flows, ensuring precise scheduling of arrivals and departures, according to China Railway Hohhot Group. Further optimization, the group added, will see the adoption of a digital port system to enable paperless customs clearance, bolstering collaboration with customs, border inspection, and other checkpoint units, among others.
"We've cut border inspection time to under 30 minutes and reduced overall clearance time by over 5 percent," said Yun Zhijun with Erenhot Station.
As a pivotal entry-exit point for the central corridor of the China-Europe railway service, Erenhot port now serves 73 routes linking over 60 cities across 24 Chinese provincial-level regions to more than 70 cities or stations in more than 10 countries, including Germany and Poland.

China’s largest natural uranium project produces its first barrel www.notebookcheck.net

China National Nuclear Corporation (CNNC) announced the production of its first barrel of natural uranium from the country’s largest in-situ recovery (ISR) mining project, located in Ordos, Inner Mongolia. This marks a very relevant step in the nuclear energy strategy of the country, highly dependent on imports.
The 'National No. 1 Uranium' (as it has been denominated) demonstration project marks an important achievement for its operational and environmental efficiencies. 
The Ordos site uses CO2 + O2 in-situ leaching, instead of the conventional uranium mining, which involves excavation and a significant environmental impact. This process consists of dissolving uranium directly underground and circulating it to the surface through a closed-loop system. This way, solid, liquid, and gas waste are reduced.
The company described the project as a "third-generation smart uranium mine", thanks to remote-controlled extraction, automated systems, and real-time digital monitoring, allowing technical viability of the extraction. Previously, the deposit was deemed as unviable, due to the challenges that sandstone uranium deposits pose for extraction.
The pilot demonstration of the 55-gallon barrel of uranium production marks the transition from construction to active demonstration mining; however, the mine is not in full operation yet. To date, CNNC has not presented an official expected date for full commercial operation of the mine.
“Once fully operational, the project will provide a solid resource foundation for national energy security and the advancement of the nuclear industry, while significantly enhancing the international competitiveness of China's natural uranium sector,” commented CNNC.
The success of the pilot and the project plays a strategic role in reducing China’s dependence on imported uranium, which currently accounts for the majority of the country’s supply, mainly coming from Kazakhstan (66%) and Namibia (33%) as of 2023, according to World Bank data.
China has presented a plan to increase its nuclear energy capacity, which is 5% of the total energy supply, with 58 operational reactors and 32 under construction, requiring more fuel. For this reason, reliable domestic fuel sources are increasingly necessary, particularly as global uranium markets tighten and geopolitical uncertainties affect supply chains.
The Ordos operation is the first in a network of planned ISR bases across northern China—including the Songliao, Erlian, and Yili basins—aimed at building long-term fuel security.

Japanese Emperor Naruhito’s Visit to Mongolia Emphasizes ‘Special Strategic Partnership’ www.thediplomat.com

The Japanese monarch’s first state visit to Mongolia acknowledged the past while looking toward the future of the two democracies’ ties.
Japan’s Emperor Naruhito and Empress Masako just wrapped up an 8-day visit to Mongolia at the invitation of the Mongolian President Khurelsukh Ukhnaa. Naruhito’s historic state visit to Mongolia envisaged a special partnership between the two countries at the highest level of government. For Tokyo and Ulaanbaatar, the emperor’s visit has robust historic, diplomatic, and symbolic implications for the two countries’ relations moving forward. 
Welcoming the visit, Mongolia’s Foreign Minister Battsetseg Batmunkh told The Diplomat, “This first state visit of Emperor Naruhito and Empress Masako has a historical significance that will deepen the friendly relations between Mongolia and Japan, strengthen the friendship and camaraderie between the peoples, which have become the ‘cornerstone’ of relations, and be engraved in golden letters in the history of relations.”
Khurelsukh and Naruhito previously met in 2019, when Khurelsukh attended the Japanese emperor’s enthronement ceremony. Naruhito had previously visited Mongolia as a crown prince in 2007 during Enkhbayar Nambar’s presidency. This state visit, however, was both more ceremonial and more symbolic. 
Historical Reconciliation
Naruhito’s visit – only his third trip overseas since assuming the throne – held profound symbolism this year, which commemorates the 80th anniversary of the end of World War II. To Mongolia and Japan, which fought against each other in the war, historical remembrance and diplomacy go hand in hand.
On July 8, the emperor and empress visited the memorial for Japanese prisoners of war (POWs) in Mongolia. According to the National Archives of Mongolia, during World War II approximately 12,000 Japanese forced laborers were sent to the Mongolian People’s Republic (MPR) from the Soviet Union, particularly Siberia. 
According to Mongolia’s Institute of Strategic Studies, “Mongolia’s records indicated 12,318 POWs in total [sent to Mongolia] and 1,621 deaths whereas Japanese records stated 13,847 POWs and 1,684 deaths.” 
Shuzo Yamada, an a 107-year-old former internee who helped build the foundations of the modern Sukhbaatar Square, commented on the visit. According to Japanese media, he said that “he is glad that the Emperor and Empress will pay their respects and people will become aware of the internment in Mongolia.” 
In 1966, before Japan and Mongolia had even formally established diplomatic ties, the first group of Japanese delegates paid their respects at a cemetery for the Japanese forced laborers. Sites commemorating the POWs have been visited by Japanese Prime Ministers Kaifu Toshiki, Koizumi  Junichiro, and Abe Shinzo; the official memorial for the Japanese POWs was built in 2001 by the Mongolian and the Japanese governments.
On Japan’s part, the consistent visit of Japanese delegations to historical sites acknowledges an era of warfare, as well as serving as a mechanism to move toward the future. Imperial Japan’s historical atrocities often face controversy in East Asia, and reconciliation has been a way for Japan to navigate both regional and global affairs. Japan’s moves to reconcile and recognize historical atrocities are thus geopolitically relevant. 
Deepening of Bilateral Ties
Beyond history, Naruhito’s state visit contributed to Japan-Mongolia diplomatic and cultural ties. The monarchs visited Ulaanbaatar’s water supply and sewage facility, Shine Mongol High School, and attended the opening ceremony of Mongolia’s Naadam festival. The emperor’s visit thus shed a light on cooperative elements of the partnership between Mongolia and Japan. 
In 2022, Mongolia and Japan commemorated their 50th anniversary of diplomatic ties by upgrading their relations to a Special Strategic Partnership. The Special Strategic Partnership serves as a robust bilateral foreign policy framework to foster people-centered cooperation in fields such as education, health, engineering, and environment. The partnership will be implemented within the 10-year Action Program of the “Special Strategic Partnership for Peace and Prosperity” between Ulaanbaatar and Tokyo. 
At the same time, given the current escalation of regional security concerns, Mongolia and Japan’s Special Strategic Partnership cannot afford to overlook defense and security cooperation. Hence, a strong Japan-Mongolia partnership is also strategically motivated. Ulaanbaatar’s “third neighbor” foreign policy supports its export access to Indo-Pacific. 
In 2022, a Japan-Mongolia-U.S. trilateral meeting took place in Tokyo and all three parties reiterated the mutual commitment to democracy, peace, and security of the open Indo-Pacific region. As Japan’s position becoming ever more relevant in East Asia and the Indo-Pacific, expanding that trilateral mechanism is crucial. 
In East Asia, defense spending continues to rise and this trend includes Mongolia and Japan. The two countries’ defense and security relations have augmented in recent years as well. Japan’s Self-Defense Forces have been instrumental in international field rehearsals such as Capacity Building Program, King Search 2022, and Khaan Quest of Mongolia. Japanese forces help provide training in military medicine, engineering, and emergency evacuation exercises. Mongolia and Japan also cooperate in joint drills to provide medical assistance under Mongolia’s National Emergency Management Agency (NEMA) disaster relief management. 
Nicholas Millward, the director for the Yokosuka Council on Asia-Pacific Studies stated, “In the East Asia context, the partnership with Japan, a major regional power, provides Mongolia with access to state-of-the-art defense technologies that will bolster its defense infrastructure without aligning itself with any military alliance. This ensures that Mongolia can maintain its independent foreign policy while benefiting from the security enhancements provided by the agreement.” 
Future Outlook
Mongolia and Japan’s special strategic bilateral relations carries global and regional implications. Enhancing trilateral mechanisms – not only between Japan, Mongolia, and the United States but Japan-Mongolia-South Korea – has benefits for both Ulaanbaatar and Tokyo. That said, under its multipillared foreign policy, Mongolia will continue to avoid joining any blocs but rather seek to establish robust bilateral and trilateral mechanisms. 
Naruhito and Masako’s state visit augmented Japan-Mongolia bilateral relations on the historical, diplomatic, and cultural levels. The historic visit to Mongolia promulgates these intangible but observable nuances at the highest level of government. Japan’s ambassador to Mongolia, Igawahara Masaru, predicted that the visit of the emperor and empress “will open a new chapter in the relationship between Japan and Mongolia.” 
Cooperation will continue with Mongolia’s hosting of COP17 of the United Nations Convention to Combat Desertification next year. The upcoming event was a particular focus for Masako, who has a deep personal interest in environmental and climate change issues and often calls for regional cooperation in this area. Naruhito expressed that Japan would send a high-level representative to COP17.  
In the face of rising regional instability, Ulaanbaatar and Tokyo will work to uphold democratic and peaceful foreign policies. The Japanese monarch’s first state visit to Mongolia enabled the deepening of Mongolia and Japan’s Special Strategic Partnership and emphasized a greater diplomatic symbolism that recognizes the past while establishing a sustainable path for future relations between the two government and two societies.
