Lead Mining Market Report Overview
Lead production was estimated to be 4,522.1kt in 2023. The major factors that influenced global lead mine production in 2023 were lower production from Australia due to heavy rainfalls and planned lower grades mined from the largest mines. Furthermore, the placement of Ireland’s Tara mine in care and maintenance, combined with lower grades mined at Sweden’s Boliden Area Mines and lower throughput at Lundin Mining’s Zinkgruvan mine in Q2 2023, impacted production. The increase in production from Australia, the US, and Russia will also primarily contribute to the growth. Lead production is expected to grow marginally at a CAGR of less than 1% over the forecast period.
