Welcome to the World Mineral Statistics archive data download page. The British Geological Survey (BGS) and its predecessor organisations have compiled production and trade statistics on a wide range of mineral commodities since 1913. As part of our ongoing work to make these data more accessible we have created an online tool which allows users to extract the data in Microsoft Excel format.
