Note to readers

Beginning with reference year 2019, Statistics Canada is responsible for the collection, processing and release of mineral and metal production statistics under the Statistics Act. Statistics Canada’s Table 16-10-0022 presents these statistics for over 75 products from the mining industry.

Data for Quebec are collected by the Institut de la statistique du Québec. Quantities of secondary aggregates, specifically stone and sand and gravel, for Newfoundland and Labrador are provided by The Department of Industry, Energy and Technology of Newfoundland and Labrador.

Historical data for reference years 1990 to 2018 are available through the dropdown above.

Publication Changes

Some products that were historically included in Natural Resources Canada's publication of mineral production are now collected and published by Statistics Canada through other, separate surveys.

These products include the following:

  • Aluminum, bismuth, cadmium, indium, selenium, sulphuric acid and tellurium – Data for these products can be found in the Monthly Survey of Smelters and Metal Refineries, which is released in Statistics Canada’s Table 16-10-0019-01.
  • Elemental sulphur – Data on elemental sulphur can be found in Statistics Canada's Table 25-10-0036-01, which provides data on natural gas liquids and sulphur products from processing plants.
  • Coal – Information on coal can be found in Statistics Canada’s Monthly Coal Supply and Disposition Survey.
