Nadalje se je proučilo, ali lahko dejstvo, da za izvoz silicijevega karbida iz Kitajske od začetka leta 1999 velja lokalni sistem dovoljenj za določene rudnine in redke zemljine, morebiti vpliva na prihodnjo cenovno politiko kitajskih izvoznikov.
It was also considered whether the fact that, since the beginning of 1999, exports of silicon carbide from China are subject to a local licence system operated for certain minerals and rare earths, could have any possible effects on the future pricing of the Chinese exporters.
