Is there a possibility these resources will be depleted/exhausted in the near future? This does look like a serious spike…

Lithium could be interesting

This should be per 1 billion global world population, shouldn’t it? Silver per 1 billion global population would only be slightly increased. 1960s had 3 billion people compared to our 8.3 billion iirc

Just to clarify this is tonnes of mined metal/commodity, not bulk ore tonnes mined.

Kilotonne is abbreviated ‘kt’ not ‘Kt’.
