Category Intelligence on Strontium covers the following
Strontium occurs in two forms naturally: Carbonate Strontianite and Celestine. Carbonate is the most desired form of ore for use, however, volume of deposits has made Carbonate Strontianite uneconomical. Celestine, which primarily occurs in sulfate form is abundantly available and is the most economical out of the two.
Combined production of Carbonate Strontianite and Celestine derivatives has been saturated in the last decade. It has been in the limits of 330,000–370,000 MT, on the back of slow demand growth.
More than 70 percent of the Strontium derivatives market is constituted by Strontium Carbonate. Supply is concentrated primarily in China, Mexico, Spain, and Japan. Few small volume producers are present in countries, like India, Korea, and the US.
Mexico and Spain are by far the most stable sourcing destinations for Strontium Carbonate, owing to two factors: volume available for export and feedstock availability.
