According to Antaike, Guangxi Nonferrous Secondary Metals' 200ktpy copper wirerod project was approved by Guangxi Development and Reform Commission. Guangxi Nonferrous is mainly engaged in recycling and processing of copper and copper related products.

It has been reported that Chinese Guangxi Nanguo Copper Co. Ltd.'s 150,000t/y copper smelting project was approved by experts on 10th June 2011. The project will be built in Guangxi-ASEAN Youth Industrial Park in Fusui County of Chongzuo City at a cost of RMB3.6B. However, before development is allowed to proceed, approval is required from the Ministry of Environmental Protection of the People's Republic of China. A decision is expected to be announced in the imminent future.

In late-May, two further large metal recycling projects have been announced in China as the country seeks to satisfy its burgeoning need for scrap metal given its shortfall in mineral resources. The Wuzhou Resource Recycling project has been approved to be constructed in Cangwu county in Guangxi province. The total investment in the project is 15bn Yuan. The construction is planned to cover an area of 667 hectares, divided into three stages, and will eventually create 40,000 new jobs. Separately, the Zhonghong recycling industrial park in Shenyang, Liaoning province has been completed and is to open in early June. The industrial park covers an area of 3 square kilometres and has cost 5bn Yuan to develop. It will create 10,000 employment opportunities and has dismantling capacity of 1 million metric tonnes per year.
