Mineral Production: wealth, growth and revenue collection

How much ore Brazil produces and sells, where that production is located, how much it collects and how much it exports, based on the complete Brazilian Mineral Yearbook (AMB) (all reporting mines, 2016–2025).

Production: Brazilian Mineral Yearbook (ANM, open data), run-of-mine and beneficiated production from all reporting mines, base years 2016 to 2025. Value of marketed production = sales value plus value of transfers for processing, in nominal reais. "Contained" refers to the mass of metal or oxide in the concentrate, as reported.

CFEM: official ANM annual totals. The open revenue database published on Nov 3, 2026 is incomplete (about 1.35 million records, versus 2.4 million in the previous edition), so the CFEM breakdown by state and commodity has been left out until the ANM republishes the complete database.

Exports: Comex Stat (MDIC), FOB values in US dollars, 2016 to 2025.
