The Economic Importance of Minerals to the UK
2004
This report was produced by the British Geological
Survey for the Office of the Deputy Prime Minister
(Minerals and Waste Planning Division). It forms one of a
number of reports, leaflets and mineral profiles prepared
under the Joint ODPM-BGS Minerals Programme that,
among other objectives, seeks to present factual and
authoritative data on the extent, availability, production,
trade and use of minerals that are of economic importance
to the UK. Much of this information is made available on
the BGS minerals website: www.mineralsUK.com.
The report has been written in such a way as to be
suitable for a wide non-economist audience and has
avoided too much detail and economic theory. Its
production contributes to a better understanding of the
economic and social issues associated with the production
and use of minerals and their contribution to sustainable
economic development.
