Abstract: Industries that produce and consume industrial minerals use the 40 forms to report production, consumption, stocks, and receipts of industrial mineral commodities (including phosphate rock, sulfur, cement, stone, sand and gravel, etc.). We compile these data into tables, which are published monthly, quarterly, semiannually, and annually. The data collected is used for military and civilian planning, and Federal policy and economic decisions related to the commodities covered.
