Mineral production by province and territory, Canada
Value of mineral shipments in 2025 (Natural Resources Canada preliminary estimates, excluding coal) in $ millions, each area's share of Canada's total and the value per resident (both derived by Quadranac; population: Statistics Canada July 1, 2025 estimates), and the value from metals, from non-metals (such as potash and diamonds) and from aggregates, clay and refractory minerals (such as sand, gravel and stone). Where NRCan withholds the headline total but publishes some categories, the total shown is a derived partial total (the sum of those published components), flagged as such, and understates production; share of Canada and value per resident are left blank in those rows. Other blank cells are values NRCan withholds or areas with no reported production. Preliminary estimates are revised in later releases.
