Data importance

Data is the bedrock of modern decision-making, and in the world of mining, it’s absolutely crucial.  Whether it’s optimizing operations, ensuring safety, or identifying new opportunities, mining data holds the key.

The WMC invites everyone to check the new World Mining Data 2024. Data is in a form of production figures of 65 mineral commodities from 168 countries. Moreover all information are summarized and statistically evaluated. This information is available in tabular form. Production of mineral commodities is listed in detail by continents, country groups, development status, per capita income, economic blocks, political stability of producing countries, largest producers and others. Production of mineral commodities is also listed by producer countries.

Let’s mine the insights from our data to shape a smarter, more responsible future for the mining industry and beyond.
