Consumption of Chromium (ores & concentrates)

Apparent consumption of Chromium - Ores&Concentrates expressed in tonnes.

Consumption of Phosphate rock

Apparent consumption of phosphate rock expressed in tonnes.

Apparent consumption is calculated as Production + Imports - Exports for each country in the ERA.

The largest share of phosphorus is used as basis for nitrogen-phosphorus-potassium fertilisers, globally utilised on food crops.1 Phosphorus (phosphate) “cannot be substituted, [is] necessary to grow all life forms, and [is] mined and depleted.” 2

Lithuania is a major importer of phosphate rock. Morocco owns more than half the world's phosphate reserves and has been called "the Saudi Arabia of phosphate".3 Recently, the Russian-owned Lithuanian fertiliser company Lifosa was the last major European importer to declare that it would stop importing phosphate from Moroccan-occupied Western Sahara.4 This shows how phosphate rock, like other raw materials, can have a geopolitical conflict component.5 It also demonstrates how "apparent consumption" not necessarily  expresses final consumption but that it may well only indicate a step in a production chain. In this case phosphate rock enters the consumption statistic and then becomes an ingredient to fertiliser.

In countries where consumption or dependency rises there may be a stronger interest in critical raw materials

Domestic material consumption (DMC)

Amount of Domestic Material Consumption weighted by population "The DMC is defined as the total amount of material directly used in an economy and equals direct material input (DMI) minus exports. DMI measures the direct input of materials for the use in the economy. DMI equals domestic extraction (DE) plus imports".1
