Live mineral prices, mining-company stocks, and where America's key minerals actually come from — the same dashboard discipline the big miners run, sized for an American mine-site company.
Live tape — U.S. critical-mineral producers and developers alongside major gold and copper miners.
Gold, silver, copper, platinum — the metals that set the economics of every mine plan.
Domestic supply is the whole thesis behind America's mineral comeback. Here's the current picture, per the U.S. Geological Survey.
Nevada produces roughly 70% of all U.S.-mined gold — the Carlin and Cortez trends — with Alaska contributing about 16%. When gold prices move, Nevada moves.
Nevada and Alaska lead U.S. silver production today, building on historic districts like Idaho's Silver Valley and the Comstock Lode.
Montana's Stillwater Complex is America's only primary platinum and palladium mine — and both metals sit on the federal critical minerals list.
Mountain Pass, California is the only operating rare-earth mine in the United States — the cornerstone of domestic magnet supply.
Silver Peak, Nevada is the operating U.S. lithium brine facility; Thacker Pass — also Nevada — is the large-scale project under development.
Arizona produces the majority of U.S. copper, anchored by large porphyry operations like Morenci. Copper demand tracks electrification directly.
The federal government's critical minerals list — maintained by the U.S. Geological Survey — names 50 minerals deemed essential to economic and national security with vulnerable supply chains. Gold and silver aren't on it; platinum, palladium, rhodium, iridium, and ruthenium are — alongside lithium, cobalt, nickel, graphite, and the rare earths. This list drives Defense Production Act funding, DOE programs, and federal sourcing policy.
Why we track this. Mineral prices set mine economics; mine economics set construction demand. Watching the markets is how a mine-site company stays ahead of the work. What we build →
