Compilation of Geospatial Data (GIS) for the Mineral Industries and Related Infrastructure of Select Countries in Southwest Asia

The U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) has compiled a geodatabase containing mineral-related geospatial data for 10 countries of interest in Southwest Asia (area of study): Afghanistan, Cambodia, Laos, India, Indonesia, Iran, Nepal, North Korea, Pakistan, and Thailand. The data can be used in analyses of the extractive fuel and nonfuel mineral industries and related economic and physical infrastructure integral for the successful operation of the mineral industries within the area of study as well as the movement of mineral products across domestic and global markets. This geodatabase reflects the USGS ongoing commitment to its mission of understanding the nature and distribution of global mineral commodity supply chains...

"Metal Industry Indicators" and "Stone, Clay, Glass, and Concrete Products Industry Indicators"

Metal Industry Indicators (MII) is a monthly newsletter thatanalyzes and forecasts the economic health of fivemetal-processing industries: primary metals, steel, copper,primary and secondary aluminum, and aluminum mill products. TheMII presents composite leading and coincident indexes of a setof indicators that historically have proven to lead or coincidewith the major business cycle changes in these industries. Theindexes were developed in cooperation with the Center forInternational Business Cycle Research at Columbia University.Each month, these indexes are analyzed along with anyeconomy-wide occurrences that would affect the metalsindustries.Stone, Clay, Glass, and Concrete Products Industry Indicators(IMII)...
