## Critical minerals

60 minerals, matching the current US critical minerals list, from aluminum and antimony to zinc and zirconium. For each one, Stockatomics provides:

- **A monthly benchmark price** in US dollars per kg contained, with history back to 2010
- **Supply and demand**, world and US, with the leading producing countries
- **Import origins**, showing where US supply comes from
- **Demand by sector**, split across the industries that use the mineral
- **Three readings of risk and pressure:** the Supply Elasticity Score, supply concentration and demand momentum

## Listed companies

70 public companies, listed on 15 stock exchanges including the New York Stock Exchange, the Australian Securities Exchange, the Toronto Stock Exchange, the OTC Markets, the London Stock Exchange, the Nasdaq, NYSE American, the Hong Kong Stock Exchange, Euronext Paris, the Korea Exchange, Nasdaq Stockholm, the National Stock Exchange of India, the Oslo Stock Exchange, the Santiago Stock Exchange and the Shenzhen Stock Exchange. Each company is linked to the minerals it produces through its own filings, and every link records the document, page and quote it comes from. For each company, Stockatomics shows:

- The minerals it produces and its share of world output
- Its Critical Mineral Company Score (CMCS), with mineral exposure and supply leverage
- Share price performance in US dollars, from licensed market data
- How its stock has performed against the minerals it produces

## Sectors

7 sectors where critical minerals are finally used: AI, semiconductors, power grids, electric vehicles, batteries, defence and robotics, with the rest of each mineral's demand grouped as Other. For every sector, Stockatomics maps the minerals it depends on, its projected demand growth and the companies that supply it. Browse them on the [sectors page](https://www.stockatomics.com/sectors).

## Prices, units and currency

- **Monthly:** one benchmark price per mineral for each month, dated by the month it describes
- **Per kg contained:** prices refer to the element contained in the traded material, so ore, concentrate, chemicals and metal compare on one basis; industrial minerals such as barite, potash and phosphate rock are priced per kg of the commodity itself
- **US dollars throughout:** share prices in other currencies are converted at the European Central Bank's reference rate for each day
- **History:** monthly benchmark prices back to 2010 in the Terminal, with the latest 12 months on the public pages

## Sources

- **Official US trade data**
- **USGS Mineral Commodity Summaries:** world and US supply and demand, and the leading producing countries
- **Company filings:** disclosed production, which links each company to its minerals and sets its output share
- **IEA:** demand outlooks for energy-transition sectors
- **European Central Bank:** euro reference rates for currency conversion

## How often it updates

New data arrives every month as official sources publish it. Each benchmark price is dated by its data month, which usually trails the calendar by about two months, and the Terminal always shows the latest reading as of the current month.

## On the website and in the Terminal

The public pages show each mineral's benchmark price and recent changes, its latest 12 months of prices, its headline supply constraint score, the companies linked to it and the sectors that use it, along with written guides to every mineral, company and sector.

The Stockatomics Terminal adds the full picture: price history back to 2010, every score and the factors behind it, import origins, demand by sector with growth scenarios, company exposure, share prices with stock against mineral performance, a tracker of catalysts and disruptors, and a terminal of your own that keeps the markets you follow in view.
