Palladium mine production in the U.S. 2010-2023

The mine production of palladium in the United States amounted to an estimated 9.8 metric tons in 2023. That was a slight decrease compared to U.S. palladium production the previous year. Palladium is close to platinum in chemical composition and is used primarily in catalytic converters, which is a key component of internal combustion engines that power the majority of motor vehicles produced worldwide.

The U.S. is one of the leading palladium mining countries in the world.
