MINING.COM and The Northern Miner mapped global rare earth production through a geopolitical lens, dividing the world into five “spheres of control”: Chinese, American, Russian, Coalition of the Willing, and Undrafted.
These groupings reflect geographic, social, cultural, and economic ties—and possible alignments in a more polarized world.
Watch: In this 18-minute presentation at the CentralMinEX conference in Newfoundland, TNM Group President Anthony Vaccaro examines how the world is fracturing into competing spheres of control.

Silver is getting its shine on, with the price reaching $34 an ounce on Monday – an overall 19% increase so far this year, and rivalling in on the performance of its sister metal, gold, up 29%.
Unlike gold, silver benefits not only from a surge in investments into safer assets during times of uncertainty, but also upturns in economic outlook, given the metal’s use in industrial applications.
The Silver Institute projects demand for silver will remain healthy in the coming years, owing to an anticipated rise in consumption for industrial uses such as photovoltaics, electronics and electric vehicles. In 2025, global demand is expected to reach 1.2 billion oz., over half of which from industrial fabrication (700 million oz.).
The Silver Institute is forecasting mine production to reach a seven-year high in 2025, rising by 2% to 844 million ounces, guided by anticipated output growth from both existing and new operations around the world.
We rank the top 20 silver-producing operations of 2024, based on their actual or estimated output in millions of ounces (Moz):
#1: KGHM Polska Miedz
Topping our list are KGHM’s collective operations in Poland, with an estimated 43.3 Moz ounces produced from its Carlota, Lubin, Polkowice-Sieroszowice, Robinson, Rudna and Sierra Gorda mines. KGHM’s silver production is a by-product of its copper operations, which also made our top copper mines ranking.
#2: Penasquito
Newmont’s Penasquito mine in Mexico is number two, with 33 Moz produced in 2024. The company struck a collective bargaining agreement with workers that year, after a series of strike actions in 2023 that saw employees at Peñasquito, Mexico’s largest gold mine, down tools for over four months.
#3: Juanicipio
The Juanicipio mine in Mexico, a joint venture between Fresnillo (56%) and Canada’s Mag Silver (44%) is in third place with 18.57 Moz produced in 2024. Fresnillo began developing the project in 2019, but only began operating the mine in late 2022, as pandemic and logistical setbacks delayed the project.
#4: San Cristóbal
San Cristóbal Mining’s San Cristóbal mine in Bolivia is in fourth place with an estimated 15.36 Moz produced in 2024. Located in Bolivia’s Potosí Department, San Cristóbal is also globally significant zinc and lead producer.
#5: Saucito
Fresnillo’s Saucito mine in Mexico is number five with 14.47 Moz ounces produced in 2024. Saucito contributed 25.7% to Fresnillo’s total silver production for the year and generated 20.9% of total adjusted revenue.
#6: Zhezkazgan Complex
Cuprum Holding’s Zhezkazgan Complex is the largest silver producing mine in Kazakhstan, churning out 14.05 Moz in 2024.
#7: Rubtsovskoye
The Rubtsovskoye mine in Russia, owned by JSC Sibir-Polymetal produced an estimated 12.78 Moz in 2024. Polymetal’s Russian assets were placed under US sanctions in 2023 and the company switched its domicile to Kazakhstan and listed on the Central Asian nation’s Astana International Exchange to try to facilitate a sale. In 2024, it sold its Russian assets to a Siberian gold miner for about $3.7 billion.
#8: Cannington
South 32’s Cannington in Australia is in eighth place with 12.66 Moz produced. The mine is located in North West Queensland, on an old sheep and cattle station.
#9: Kazzinc Consolidated
Kazzinc Consolidated’s Kazzinc mine in Kazakhstan is number nine, with 12.171 Moz produced. Kazzinc complex is located in the western region of the Shatskaya metaliogenic zone in north Kazakhstan.
#10: San Julian
Fresnillo’s San Julian mine in Mexico churned out 11.83 Moz in 2024. According to the company, the geological potential identified in the San Julian mine’s region may be sufficient to establish a new mining district in the future.
#11: Pirquitas
Pirquitas mine, located in Jujuy Province of Argentina and owned by SSR Mining, ranks 11th with 10.5 Moz produced. Pirquitas combined with the nearby Chinchillas mine in 2015, to comprise the Puna Operations, which includes processing facilities.
#12: Uchucchacua
Buenaventura’s Uchucchacua mine in Peru’s Oyón province produced 10.49 Moz of silver in 2024. The mine started operations in 1975, and over the years the company has faced land use disputes with the Oyon people of the Andes.
#13: Fresnillo
Fresnillo’s eponymous mine in Mexico produced 10.24 Moz in 2024. Fresnillo, the world’s top silver producer, operates seven mines in the country.
#14: Chuquiquamata
Chile’s famed Chuquiquamata, the world’s biggest open-pit copper mine, owned by state-run miner Codelco, also produced an estimated 9.98 Moz of silver in 2024.
#15: Los Gatos
The Los Gatos mine in Chihuahua, Mexico, a joint venture between First Majestic Silver (70%) and Dowa Holdings (30%) churned out 9.68 ounces for the year. First Majestic acquired the stake in 2024, when it bought Los Gatos Silver in a $970 million deal.
#16: Greens Creek
Hecla Mining’s Greens Creek in southeast Alaska produced 8.48 Moz of silver in 2024. Greens Creek was the first US underground mine to deploy automated loading technology from Sandvik.
#17: Garpenberg
The Garpenberg mine in Sweden, wholly owned by Boliden, produced 8.23 Moz. Garpenberg is also the world’s most productive underground zinc mine.
#18: Ministro Hales
Ministro Hales, run by Chile’s state owned miner Codelco, produced an estimated 8.12 Moz for the year. In 2023, Codelco said it planned to extend the useful life of Ministro Hales with a $2.5 billion investment.
#19: Gumuskoy
The Gumuskoy mine in Turkiye’s Kütahya Province, owned by Eti Gumus AS, produced an estimated 7.5 Moz in 2024. In 2021, Gumuskoy was the world’s top producing silver mine, according to Global Data.
#20 Dukat
Rounding out the ranking is the Dukat mine in Russia, owned by JSC-Sibir Polymetal. Dukat’s estimated production for the year was on par with Gumuskoy – with 7.5 Moz.

Commercial Terms
As consideration for the sale, EMX will receive staged payments totaling 3.25 million SEK (approximately US$335,000) over a period of two years. The payments will be made in equal proportions of cash and the equivalent value in shares of FNM.
Additionally, FNM will grant EMX a 1% net smelter return (NSR) royalty on any newly generated projects in Sweden and Finland during the next five years.

The price of platinum is currently increasing due to a combination of factors, primarily a significant supply deficit and rebounding demand in key sectors.
Here’s a breakdown of the main causes:
1. Supply Deficit:
- South African Mining Issues: The vast majority of global platinum supply (over 70%) comes from South Africa. This region is prone to disruptions from:
- Labor strikes: Historically, strikes have significantly impacted production.
- Power outages: Frequent electricity problems and power cuts hinder mining and processing operations.
- Aging infrastructure and regulatory changes: These can lead to increased production costs and reduced output.
- Declining Secondary Supply (Recycling): While recycling plays a role, a drop in secondary supply from sources like catalytic converters can contribute to the overall deficit.
- Mine Closures: Some platinum mines, even high-yielding ones, are being closed, further tightening supply.
2. Rebounding Demand:
- Automotive Industry: This is the largest consumer of platinum, primarily for catalytic converters in internal combustion engine (ICE) vehicles.
- Stricter Emission Standards: Global regulations (like Euro 6 in Europe and Bharat Stage VI in India) require more efficient catalytic converters, boosting platinum demand.
- Shift back to ICE vehicles: Despite the long-term trend towards EVs, there’s been a recent pushback on banning ICE vehicles in some regions, leading to increased demand for platinum in these vehicles.
- Hydrogen Fuel Cell Vehicles (FCEVs): Platinum is crucial in fuel cells, and as this technology advances, demand from this sector is expected to grow.
- Jewelry: Demand for platinum jewelry, especially in emerging markets like China and India, continues to be strong.
- Industrial Applications: Platinum is used in various industrial processes, including chemical production (e.g., fertilizers, petroleum refining), electronics, and glass manufacturing. Growth in these industries contributes to demand.
- Investment Demand: Platinum is increasingly seen as a strategic investment asset, and during periods of economic uncertainty or inflation, investors may turn to precious metals as a safe haven. There’s also a belief among some investors that platinum is currently undervalued.
In summary, the core reason for the price increase is that demand is outstripping supply, creating a market deficit. This deficit is expected to continue for the foreseeable future, which is attracting more investor attention to the “forgotten precious metal.”
