Description

Global Lead Mining to 2035

Summary

GlobalData's Global Lead Mining to 2035 provides a comprehensive coverage on the global lead industry. It provides historical and forecast data on lead production by country, production by company, reserves by country, world lead prices, lead consumption and lead consumption by country. The report also includes a demand drivers section providing information on factors that are affecting the global lead industry. It further profiles major lead producers, information on the major active, planned and exploration projects by region.

Global lead production is estimated to have increased by a marginal 0.7% in 2025 to reach 4,575.0 thousand tonnes (kt), with China, Russia, Peru, India, South Africa, Turkey, and Ireland playing a pivotal role by accounting for 63.7% of this total.

The output growth was primarily driven by the new projects and restarts in China (Huoshaoyun mine), Russia (Ozernoe ramp-up), Ireland (Tara mine restart), and expansions in India. Similarly, Peru and South Africa also saw gains from higher ore grades and improved operational efficiency.

However, these gains were mostly offset by output declines in Australia, the US, and Kazakhstan, driven by declining ore grades and the closure of mines such as the Lady Loretta and Red Dog.

Looking ahead to 2026, global production is anticipated to grow by 2.2% to reach 4,677.3kt, supported by planned increases in China, Mexico, Peru, Kazakhstan, India, Brazil, and Russia which will offset projected declines in the US and Poland.

How Do Licenses Work?

How Do Licenses Work?

The primary function of a report license is to define how many people within a company are authorized to use the purchased report. This is separate to how a report might be delivered. Unless specifically identified otherwise, the purchase option is Single User. Below is a helpful description of that license, along with a sampling of others most commonly offered.

  • This license allows only one user to have access to and to use/read the report. It is not one user at a time or one user group; it is an individual who will be reading and utilizing the report.

  • This license allows for the entire purchasing company to read and use the report. This is the license level that would allow for a report to be placed on an internal company shared drive for access by all employees of that direct company. This license does not extend to parent or sister company use.

  • This license is designed to allow an entire department within a company full access to a report. The departmental license is a great option for companies that have more than one location and the department is spread out all over the country/world

  • This license is for companies that have one location where they want the report to be accessible by all employees within that physical location.

  • This is the most flexible of the licensing options. Some publishers will allow you to get a license for a preset number of people (typically 5). These licenses are ideal for small work groups.

License options are at the discretion of each publisher. As such, not all licenses indicated above are available for every product. If you are uncertain of the best license for your needs or would like a license that is not proactively available, please contact us and we will be happy to assist.
