China Beijing International Mining Exchange

China Beijing International Mining Exchange (CBMX; Chinese: 北京国际产业权交易所; pinyin: Běijīng guójì kuàngyè quán jiāoyì suǒ) is an electronic transaction bourse and platform for mineral rights transactions in China.[1][2] It handles transactions for both State-owned enterprises SOEs as well as transfers of enterprise-owned mineral rights.

Background

The CBMX was established in 2009 and officially began trading operations in October 2010. It is one of twelve subsidiaries[3] of CBEX that conduct trading operations. Appointed by the Beijing Municipal Bureau of Land and Resources,[2] it is described as "a public service platform for international trade of mineral rights and mineral commodities". CBMX claims to be the first such institute receiving governmental approval, the first such institute in China with an electronic platform for transactions of mineral rights, the first to develop a comprehensive handbook (2009), the Mineral Rights Exchange Guidebook, and the first such institute to launch an independent expert assessment system.

The CBMX is physically located in the Fortune Times Building, 3rd floor, in Xicheng District, Beijing in Financial Street. The CBMX has a trading room with computer terminals for 'members' in the middle and 'traders' on either side, and a large red LED display board at the front of the room.

Information on the system is mainly in Chinese and only a small amount of English content is provided. CBMX provides[4] flowcharts showing the transaction processes for both transfer of State-owned mineral rights and transfer of mineral rights owned by enterprises.

Mission

The CBMX Chairman, Mr. Wu Ruchuan, describes the CBMX principles as:[5]

  • conducting operations with integrity in an open and transparent manner
  • creating an open, orderly, sound and unified market environment in which all market subjects can compete on an equal footing, and
