Generally speaking, minor metals are the industrial metals whose relatively small market size and/or light trading volume has prohibited them from being traded on major public exchanges such as the LME. Additionally, minor metals are typically mined as by-products or secondary metals in operations focused on precious metals, base metals or possibly some other mineral deposit such as silicon or coal.
