Tungsten More “Critical” on Expected Supply Shortage

It certainly isn’t news to anyone that tungsten is a critical metal. However, it is  important to note that tungsten is slowly making its way up the global critical metals list.

A metal is deemed critical when it is found to be economically important to the functionality of society, but has a high risk of supply disruptions. In 2011,

The British Geological Society  published a list of what it considers the 52 most critical metals in the world.

The list was compiled based on global abundance, location of production, reserves and supply risk associated with the political stability in the jurisdictions where the metal occurs.
