What it is
China's Ministry of Commerce (MOFCOM), with the General Administration of Customs, administers the export-control regime on critical minerals used in semiconductors. It imposed export licensing on gallium and germanium in 2023, expanded to antimony and graphite, tightened rare-earth and tungsten controls in 2024-2025, and in December 2024 banned outright exports of gallium, germanium and antimony to the United States in retaliation for US chip-tool controls. It is the primary state actor weaponizing upstream materials supply.
