Find out more Tin Resources and Reserves Availability of raw materials is of huge importance to policymakers and downstream metal consumers. A perception that a material is “running out” can destroy demand through substitution to other materials, economisation, or introduction of legislation to limit consumption. Our studies of tin resources and reserves are intended reassure all those concerned about tin supply by providing estimates of global tin resources and reserves as well as identifying the limitations of resource reporting. Our current view is that there is an abundance of tin on our planet but currently under-investment in companies and projects seeking to discover and develop it.
