en.Wedoany.com Reported - On June 1, 2026, the China Nonferrous Metals Industry Association held an enlarged meeting of the Standing Committee of the Party Committee in Beijing, announcing the adjustment of the Party Secretary position: Ao Hong was appointed as the Party Secretary of the China Nonferrous Metals Industry Association, replacing Ge Honglin. The appointment and removal decision was made by the Party Committee of National Industry Associations and Chambers of Commerce under the Central Social Work Department. A total of 40 people, including members of the association's Party Standing Committee, deputy secretaries-general, and heads of affiliated units, attended the meeting.

Ao Hong has extensive management experience in the nonferrous metals and rare earth sectors. He previously served as Party Secretary and Vice President of the Beijing General Research Institute for Nonferrous Metals, Deputy Party Secretary and Director of Aluminum Corporation of China (Chinalco), Party Secretary and Chairman of China Rare Earth Group, and held positions as Vice President of the China Nonferrous Metals Industry Association and President of its Rare Earth Branch. He is currently a member of the 14th National Committee of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference (CPPCC) and an external director of China Iron & Steel Research Institute Group and China Minmetals Corporation.

After assuming his new role, Ao Hong proposed three work directions: First, strengthen the guiding role of Party building, integrating Party conduct and integrity construction into the association's operations to ensure high-quality development through robust Party building; second, sustain the industry's positive development momentum, consolidate industry synergy, and support the high-quality development of the nonferrous metals industry; third, enhance service capabilities, benchmark against first-class association standards, and build the association into a supporting force for government industry management and a trusted service platform for member units.

This adjustment completes the transition of the top leadership of the China Nonferrous Metals Industry Association. Ao Hong will lead the association in continuing to play a bridging and bonding role as an industry organization in advancing the process of new industrialization.
