@timofeyVanadium is an industrial metal that goes into high-strength steel, alloys, chemical catalysts, and vanadium redox-flow batteries. The numbers below come from World Mining Data 2025 and show the V-content in mine production measured in metric tonnes for the year 2023. Only five countries reported any output in the dataset so we aren't making up a longer list to fill space. China produced 81,600 metric tonnes which was 69.85% of the global total. Russia came in second with 20,000 metric tonnes. South Africa contributed 8,667 metric tonnes. Brazil added 6,508 metric tonnes. India was last on the list with just 50 metric tonnes. Global production hit 116,825 metric tonnes when you add everything up. If you combine China, Russia, and South Africa they make up 94.39% of all the vanadium produced worldwide. These figures are part of the Worldly Original Content series.
