Mineral Resources Form The Backbone Of Mexico Sourcing

Presented By: Dragon Sourcing

Introduction

Mexico sourcing is primarily centered around oil, natural gas, and metal resources. The country has abundant reserves of fossil fuel, precious and non-precious metal ores. These resources are found throughout the nation.

Mexico's Fossil Fuel

Together with petroleum, natural gas is another important item of international trade of Mexico. Rich sources of natural gas are found in Permian Basin in south eastern Mexico, and San Juan Basin in north western part. The availability of natural gas is so high that only ten percent of the annual produce is required domestically and the remaining 90 percent is exported. Procurers of natural gas could have them either in dried or liquefied forms

Precious Metals

Silver, a precious metal is a major mineral resource of Mexico. This metal has large scale usage in medical equipments, electronic appliances, solar panels, batteries and photography. Silver has extensive use in jewelry. Chihuahua and Durango states account for this country's 30 percent mining. Other states producing this precious metal are Guanajuato and Zacatecas. Earlier, this country had substantial reserves of gold

Non-precious Metals

Among this category of metal, copper is the most prominent. This metal is known for its superior conductivity, malleability, and ductility. Brass has large scale use in making plumbing fittings, coins, and utensils. Bronze is also used in making utensils and artifacts. Lead and zinc are the other mineral resources of significance. Lead is widely used in automotive batteries, ammunition, solder, pigments, and radiation shields.
