Sourced & EmpiricalEmpirical intelligence on antimony production concentration, sovereign trade controls, and import reliance.
How concentrated is global mine production of antimony?▼
Global antimony extraction is highly concentrated with a Herfindahl-Hirschman Index (HHI) of 2,582. The leading producer is China, representing 36% of global mine output, with 15 countries reporting commercial production, based on USGS Mineral Commodity Summaries (MCS 2026).
Which jurisdictions enforce export controls or bans on antimony?▼
There are 1 documented sovereign export control regimes affecting antimony trade corridors: China (China maintains an export licensing requirement for materials and technologies covering Antimony (2024), bismuth (2025), synthesized diamond (2025), gallium (2023), germanium (2023), graphite (2023), indium (2025), magnesium materials (2024), molybdenum (2025), rare earths (2025), silver (2026), tellurium (2025), tungsten (2025), and items related to lithium batteries and artificial graphite anode materials (2025), as compiled by the USGS from official and reported sources effective January 2026.).
What is the net import reliance and critical supply vulnerability for antimony?▼
US net import reliance for antimony is recorded at 91%, with primary foreign supply originating from China, Belgium, Thailand, India. It is classified as an essential strategic mineral across US and Indian criticality lists.
