Title:
World Mineral Statistics Dataset

Abstract:
The British Geological Survey has one of the largest databases in the world on the production and trade of minerals. The dataset contains annual production statistics by mass for more than 70 mineral commodities covering the majority of economically important and internationally-traded minerals, metals and mineral-based materials. For each commodity the annual production statistics are recorded for individual countries, grouped by continent. Import and export statistics are also available for years up to 2002. Maintenance of the database is funded by the Science Budget and output is used by government, private industry and others in support of policy, economic analysis and commercial strategy. As far as possible the production data are compiled from primary, official sources. Quality assurance is maintained by participation in such groups as the International Consultative Group on Non-ferrous Metal Statistics. Individual commodity and country tables are available for sale on request.

Supplemental Information:
Update of individual annual figures is a year-round process. 'World Mineral Statistics 1997-2001'(annual) BGS PUBLICATION. PUBLICATION: 'WORLD MINERAL STATISTICS 1995-99' Mackenzie, A.C. et al. 1999 PUBLICATION: MODERNISATION OF THE WORLD MINERALS STATISTICS DATABASE, BGS TECHNICAL REPORT. 'World Mineral Statistics 1998-2002' 'European Mineral Statistics 1997-2001' 'European Mineral Statistics 1998-2002' Additional data on trade are available in paper form (sources of imports, destinations of exports). No data are routinely compiled on aggregate minerals (crushed rock or natural). For 12 commodities data are for production only. Standard abbreviations and symbols are used throughout. Units of measurements are tonnes, kilograms or carats, according to commodity. Value (#) is used where mass is not available. Estimated numbers are rounded to between one and three orders of magnitude higher than the measured totals.
