Sorry...I forgot the link: minerals.usgs.gov A two page Molybdenum report by the: US Geological Survey, Mineral Commodities Summaries, Jan. 2005 Items from this 2005 report that I found interesting. -Montana has a producing Molybdenum mine. It restarted in 2004. -USA, Chile and China are the three largest producers. -Global Resource - 5 millionT in the US and 13 millionT in the remainder of the world -There is little substitution for Molybdenum in its major application as an alloying element in steels and cast iron. Thanks to jpthomas for this find.
