Highlights

As the key raw materials of strategic emerging industries，rare mineral resources play an increasingly prominent role in the development of modern industry.In order to grasp the characteristics and pattern of the global rare mineral trade network，and understand the supply security of rare mineral products in China， this paper adopted the complex network to construct a global rare mineral trade network based on the UN Comtrade and the global rare mineral trade data from 2002 to 2020.This paper studied the overall trade characteristics，node centrality and group evolution of the trade network，and simulated the targeted interruption of the supply security of rare mineral products in China.The results show that：（1）The global rare mineral products trade network is gradually becoming more complex，the scale is expanding，the trade connectivity is gradually strengthened，and the characteristics of the small world are maintained all year round.（2）The United States，Germany，France，and the United Kingdom are located in the core position of the rare mineral trade network all year round，and have a strong control over the world’s rare mineral trade，and play an important bridge role in the trade network.（3）China’s position and control ability in the global rare mineral products trade network have increased year by year，and its trading partners have been increasing，and its influence in the trade of rare mineral products has become increasing.（4）There are mainly 4 trading associations in the global rare mineral products trade network，and each community shows the evolutionary characteristics of continuous differentiation and reorganization.（5）The security of the supply of rare mineral products in China has been improved，but it is still in an unsafe state，and preventing targeted interruptions is of great significance to ensure the security of the supply of rare mineral products in China.According to this，the study believes that the following measures can provide a basis for optimizing the trade pattern of rare mineral products in China and formulating policies for supply security.First，establish long-term and stable trade links with the core countries of the global trade in rare mineral products.Second，implement a diversified trade strategy to enhance resilience to targeted disruption risks.Third，actively participate in the exploration of global rare mineral resources and promote the sustainable development of rare mineral resources in China.
