Nonfuel Mineral Production In The United States, By State

Home > Minerals > Statistical Summary

This table presents detailed data on the production quantities and values of various nonfuel mineral commodities across multiple U.S. states for the years 2019 through 2021. It includes a wide range of minerals such as clays, gemstones, lime, sand and gravel, crushed stone, metals like gold, silver, copper, zinc, and others. This information is crucial for understanding the economic and industrial contributions of mineral resources at the state level, informing policy decisions, resource management, and investment strategies. The data reflects mine output, shipments, sales, or marketable production, providing insight into the mineral industry's scale, trends, and regional significance within the United States.

Analyzing the data reveals notable trends and changes over the three-year period. For example, Arizona's total nonfuel mineral production value surged from $6.85 billion in 2019 to $10.1 billion in 2021, driven largely by copper production increasing from 859,000 metric tons valued at $5.3 billion to 868,000 metric tons valued at $8.28 billion. Alaska showed a steady increase in gold production value, rising from $784 million in 2019 to $1.16 billion in 2021, with gold quantities also increasing slightly from 17,500 to 20,000 kilograms. Minnesota's iron ore production value more than doubled from $3.58 billion in 2019 to $5.69 billion in 2021, despite a dip in quantity in 2020. In contrast, Georgia's kaoline production quantity declined from 4,630 thousand metric tons in 2019 to 3,920 thousand metric tons in 2021, with a corresponding decrease in value from $781 million to $630 million. Overall, the total U.S. nonfuel mineral production value increased from $3.05 billion (Alabama example) to $3.72 billion, indicating growth in the sector despite some fluctuations in individual commodities and states.
