Ranked: The World's Biggest Mineral Producers

July 30, 2026--Key Takeaways
China produced 5.3 billion metric tons of minerals in 2024-26.9% of the global total.
The top five producers accounted for 61% of global mineral production.
Asia-Pacific generated just over half of the world’s mineral output.

Minerals are essential to energy systems, construction, manufacturing, and advanced technologies. Yet production is highly concentrated among countries with large resource endowments and major fossil fuel industries.
