Arizona’s preeminent position during most of the past century inworld copper production has been much publicized. However, ithas not been as well known that, for the last half century, Arizonahas also been the world’s third largest producer of molybdenum,behind Colorado (the largest producer) and British Columbia,Canada. Arizona leads such countries as Chile and Russia inmolybdenum production. With resources of some 850,000 metrictons of molybdenum, Arizona’s porphyry copper deposits accountfor about 20% of the overall U. S. molybdenum resources. Demandfor molybdenum is expected to double by the 1990s and triple orquadruple by the end of the century (Sutulov, 1978).
