It includes global mineral production data for 2013, and is a continuation of the dataset which began in 1913. This publication is compiled from a comprehensive database, maintained by the British Geological Survey, through which we aim to provide a reliable, comprehensive and continuous set of data covering most of the minerals that enter international trade. In this volume we have set out the production figures by country for more than 70 mineral commodities, over the five-year period from 2009 to 2013. The objective of this series remains to present the latest production information obtained from official bodies in individual countries, although other sources are also used to ensure completeness and accuracy. The cooperation afforded to the British Geological Survey by numerous national and international organisations is gratefully acknowledged. The statistics contained in this volume for 2013 reveal some interesting trends in the global outputs of several commodities. The largest increase in 2013 compared to 2012 was in the production of bauxite which increased by nearly 16 per cent, followed by mine production of tin (up nearly 14 per cent compared to 2012) and chromium ores and concentrates (up 12 per cent on the previous year). By contrast the largest decrease in 2013 was in the global output of zirconium minerals, which was down by 17 per cent compared to 2012 and barytes (down nearly 14 per cent in 2013 compared to the previous year). Over the five year period covered by this volume the largest increases in global output are for magnesite (132 per cent between 2009 and 2013), mined nickel (up 88 per cent) and potash (up 66 per cent). Only four of the commodities included in this volume show a decrease over the five year period and these are mined bismuth (down nearly 21 per cent between 2009 and 2013), asbestos (down 8.5 per cent), graphite (down nearly three per cent) and the mine production of platinum group metals (down nearly five per cent). For the latter, the majority of this decrease occurred in 2012 and, although there has been a two per cent increase in 2013, global output of platinum group metals remained lower than in 2009, 2010 or 2011. The concern surrounding the worldwide security of supply of minerals, which has been evident for a few years now, has continued especially with regard to the so called ‘critical’ minerals, i.e. those elements that are essential for new and/or green technologies. New policies and programmes of supporting research have continued to be developed across the entire worldwide supply chain, with the common aims of diversifying the supply base, improving resource efficiency (which includes, but is not limited to, recycling), and developing alternatives for the most constrained elements both in terms of substituting materials and other technologies. In the UK, the Natural Environment Research Council (NERC) is funding a Security of Supply (SoS) research programme aimed at improving our understanding of the formation of deposits for critical metals and developing the extractive metallurgy of their ores. At the European level, a number of recent projects have been completed or are ongoing in this subject area. These include: the recent update of the criticality assessment which increased the list of the EU’s ‘critical’ minerals (or groups of minerals) from 14 to 20; a study on the competitiveness of the EU mineral raw materials sector; European intelligence network on the supply of raw materials (Minerals4EU; www.minerals4eu.eu); a study relating to raw material system analysis; Blue Mining (www.bluemining.eu), which relates to sustainable deep sea mining; the European rare earth element project (EURARE; www.eurare.eu); and many others. BGS is involved as a collaborating partner in a number of these, or, where we are not directly involved, our expertise has proved to be invaluable to the project team. All these studies require data, such as that provided in this volume, as a foundation for the research. As always, I would welcome any comments and suggestions that you have relating to this volume which might help us to meet your ongoing needs.

For each commodity constant efforts are made to ensure that as many producing countries as possible are reported. For some commodities, where statistics on production are not publicly available, estimates are made. Users of this compilation are advised that more statistical information than can be included in a publication of this nature is held in the British Geological Survey files and is available for consultation. Historical data (from 1913 for many commodities) can be obtained from the predecessors to this series entitled World Mineral Statistics and the Statistical Summary of the Mineral Industry. Copies of these publications are available in the World Archive section of the website: www.mineralsUK.com. Arrangement of countries Countries are ordered alphabetically in geographical groupings as follows: Europe Africa North and Central America, including the Caribbean South America Asia Australasia, including the Pacific Islands Metals Mine production of many metals is expressed in terms of metal content. This is clearly indicated at the head of the table, adjacent to the unit used. For aluminium, cobalt, copper, iron, lead, nickel, tin and zinc, mine production and metal production are shown in separate tables. Unless otherwise specified, metal production statistics relate to metal recovered from both domestic and imported materials, whether primary or secondary, but exclude remelted material wherever possible. World totals For certain minerals and metals no world total is shown due to the non-availability of certain individual country totals.

consist of montmorillonite (one of the smectite group of clay minerals) and occur in two main varieties, calcium bentonite, the most commonly occurring, and sodium bentonite, industrially the more important (2) Calcium bentonite can be converted to sodium bentonite by a sodium-exchange process (3) In some countries, such as the United Kingdom, calcium bentonite is known as fuller's earth, a term which is also used to refer to attapulgite, a mineralogically distinct clay mineral but exhibiting similar properties (4) In addition to the countries listed, Austria and Ecuador may produce bentonite and France may produce fuller's earth (a) (b) (c) (d) (e) (f) (g) Including attapulgite and sepiolite Years ended 30 June of that stated Smectite Sales Sold or used by producers Years ended

The leading producing countries are believed to be China, Germany, Kazakhstan and Ukraine, with smaller quantities produced in the Republic of Korea, Russia, Hungary and Japan. The following table provides the currently available information but this is incomplete. The United States Geological Survey estimates total world primary production as: 2009, 78 tonnes; 2010, 182 tonnes; 2011, 292 tonnes; 2012, 273 tonnes and 2013, 280 tonnes. There is also believed to be significant production of refined gallium from scrap recycling, particularly in China, Japan, United Kingdom and USA. tonnes (metric) Country 2009 2010 2011 2012 2013 Russia * 13 13 * 13 * 13 * 13 7 19 5 19 5 19 8 16 8 * 16 Japan Kazakhstan Production of germanium metal tonnes (metric) Country 2009 2010 2011 2012 2013 Finland — 12 12 16 17 USA (a) 5 3 3 *3 *3 * 100 *2 * 100 *2 * 100 *2 * 100 *2 * 100 *2 China Japan Notes (1) Germanium is also believed to be recovered from imported or domestic material in Belgium, Canada, Russia and Ukraine (a) Including production of secondary metal 26 Mine production of gold Country kilograms 2009 2010 2011 2012 2013 Armenia Azerbaijan Bulgaria Finland Georgia Greece Greenland Poland Romania Russia Serbia (a) Slovakia Spain Sweden Turkey United Kingdom 1 207 353 4 482 5 749 * 3 100 — — 600 * 500 205 236 818 346 — 5 542 14 470 187 1 780 2 092 4 489 7 628 * 3 100 — — 500 * 500 201 300 856 534 — 6 285 16 890 177 2 125 1 775 5 302 8 461 * 3 100 — 103 400 * 500 185 263 1 534 398 290 5 994 24 000 202 1 941 1 562 7 058 10 886 * 3 100 26 307 469 * 500 182 580 1 400 546 1 333 6 015 29 390 102 2 324 1 619 7 385 9 981 * 3 100 823 25 431 * 500 213 977 * 1 000 533 2 053 6 530 31 044 42 Algeria Botswana Burkina Faso Burundi Cameroon Congo, Democratic Republic Egypt Eritrea Ethiopia (b) Gabon Ghana Guinea Ivory Coast Kenya Liberia Madagascar Mali Mauritania Morocco (a) Mozambique Namibia Niger Nigeria Senegal Sierra Leone South Africa Sudan (c) Tanzania Togo Zambia (d) Zimbabwe 998 1 626 11 581 980 * 600 2 000 — * 30 4 005 * 300 91 143 17 545 6 947 1 055 524 17 42 364 7 838 470 511 2 057 1 985 1 350 5 655 157 197 628 14 914 39 113 12 955 3 108 4 966 723 1 774 22 926 2 933 * 600 3 500 4 675 * 30 6 003 * 300 92 380 24 836 5 316 2 355 666 46 38 524 8 326 650 106 2 683 1 950 3 718 5 354 270 188 702 26 317 39 448 10 452 3 410 9 620 340 1 562 31 720 1 052 * 600 3 500 6 305 11 788 10 322 * 300 90 959 15 779 11 009 1 636 449 1 40 415 8 211 520 103 2 112 1 957 * 3 700 4 089 164 180 184 23 739 40 390 16 469 3 493 12 993 264 1 522 28 900 2 046 * 600 2 403 8 175 9 735 12 581 684 89 768 16 153 11 232 3 600 641 157 41 079 7 647 532 178 2 402 1 677 * 4 000 6 666 141 154 178 46 133 39 012 18 551 4 232 8 112 140 1 206 32 613 2 823 * 600 2 860 11 102 2 862 12 300 1 201 90 510 18 139 12 949 2 100 600 * 150 41 751 9 518 * 530 180 2 045 1 151 * 4 000 6 445 96 159 724 24 813 43 390 21 086 5 207 14 000 Canada Costa Rica Dominican Republic Guatemala Honduras Mexico Nicaragua Panama USA 97 235 * 205 425 8 484 2 127 62 439 2 590 973 223 323 102 693 * 300 533 9 213 2 200 79 376 4 877 1 667 231 000 100 379 * 500 495 11 898 1 893 88 649 6 395 2 057 234 000 104 644 — 4 106 6 473 1 859 102 802 * 6 980 2 208 235 000 124 054 — 26 084 6 386 1 985 117 848 * 8 610 1 120 228 000 48 824 7 217 60 330 40 834 47 838 5 392 1 250 9 326 63 523 6 400 62 047 39 494 53 606 4 573 1 140 9 593 59 140 6 513 65 200 45 137 55 908 4 924 * 1 300 11 293 54 651 6 973 31 300 49 936 66 178 5 139 * 1 000 13 643 52 486 6 751 79 563 51 309 55 745 7 118 * 1 000 14 963 Argentina Bolivia Brazil Chile Colombia Ecuador French Guiana Guyana 27 Mine production of gold Country kilograms 2009 2010 2011 2012 2013 Peru Suriname Uruguay (e) Venezuela 182 390 12 834 2 010 12 232 164 070 12 932 1 705 6 991 166 168 12 605 1 702 * 7 000 161 545 12 507 1 881 * 7 000 151 486 11 001 2 092 * 7 000 Burma (a) China (a) India (f) Indonesia Iran (a) Japan Kazakhstan Korea (Rep. of) Korea, Dem.
