Competitive Landscape for Stillwater Mining Company
Demand is driven by industrial demand and economic growth, both domestic and foreign. Individual company profitability depends on volume and operating efficiency.

Small companies typically own just one mine, limit exploration to that one property, and operate it as efficiently as possible. Metal ore mining is capital-intensive: annual revenue per employee is about $300,000. The industry includes companies that mine and process gold, silver, copper, nickel, lead, zinc, iron ore, and other metals.
