USGS Long-term U.S. Natural Graphite Supply and Unit Values

Latest: U.S. natural graphite mine production and shipments 1953 · U.S. natural graphite trade 2022 · U.S. apparent consumption 2022 · Natural graphite unit values 2022 1900 – 2022

USGS Long-term U.S. Natural Graphite Supply and Unit Values. Apparent consumption is a supply-balance estimate of natural graphite available to U.S. users, not measured final demand. Mine output, trade and unit values use separate panels; nominal and constant-1998 dollars must not be combined. Wheel/Pinch=Zoom · Drag=Box zoom · Alt+Drag/Arrows=Pan · Double-click=Reset

USGS U.S. Natural Graphite Import Unit Values by Form

Latest: 2025 2021 – 2025

USGS U.S. Natural Graphite Import Unit Values by Form. Import unit value is customs value divided by quantity for each natural-graphite form, not a spot-market quote. Flake, lump or chip, and amorphous grades differ in quality and mix, so their dollar-per-tonne lines are not directly interchangeable.
