ROCKVILLE, MD, UNITED STATES, April 13, 2026 /EINPresswire.com/ -- According to Fact MR, latest analysis, the precious metal market in Mexico is gaining strategic momentum within the global landscape, with the sector valued at approximately USD 18.4 billion in 2025, projected to reach USD 19.1 billion in 2026, and forecast to expand to USD 25.6 billion by 2036, registering a CAGR of 3.0%. This growth represents an incremental opportunity of USD 6.5 billion over the forecast period. The transformation is driven by Mexico’s dual advantage as both a major mining producer and a key exporter of refined metals, alongside increasing industrial demand for silver and platinum group metals (PGMs).
