Many beautiful, modern items have been blessed by technological ingenuity, but have you ever examined what metals and minerals are utilized to power them?

Consider your smartphone - most people these days are inseparable from their beloved iPhones (guilty as charged), and these incredible devices are veritable money mines. That's not entirely true.

In order to enable high-speed performance and data, enhanced video and gaming, and a more vivid and detailed screen, several key metals and minerals are now employed in the electronics of your mobile phone.

Here's a list of the top 10 metals and minerals that fuel your phone, from mine to phone:

1. Gold: This valuable metal is regarded for its chemical stability and ability to carry electricity, making it ideal for usage in mobile phones. The circuit board of a mobile phone is made using small quantities of gold. China is the world's largest gold exporter, followed by South Africa.

2.Lithium:Can the world's supply of this delicate, silvery white chemical element keep up with the enormous demand for its usage in electronic gadgets like cellphones? The primary application of lithium is in the manufacture of mobile phone batteries. Salt lakes and hard-rock ore are used to make it. And – drum roll please - Australia is the world's leading lithium exporter.

3. Aluminium : Aluminium is a silvery, ductile metallic element that is utilized in the manufacture of mobile phone covers and components. It is mined in Australia, Brazil, China, India, Guinea, Indonesia, Jamaica, Russia, and Suriname, and is the most plentiful metal in the Earth's crust. China is the world's largest producer of aluminium.

4. Cobalt: This strong, silver-white metal is utilized to produce the rechargeable batteries in mobile phones, and it's far more than simply a beautiful blue jewellery component. Smelting is used to make it. The Democratic Republic of the Congo is the world's biggest cobalt exporter, accounting for about 40% of global output.

5.Copper: Copper is utilised as an electrical conductor in the circuit board of a mobile phone. It is said to be the first metal ever used by man. The majority of this malleable, reddish-brown metal is mined or recovered from big, open-pit mines as copper sulphides. Chile is the world's biggest copper mining producer, accounting for at least a third of global output.

6. Lead : Lead is a soft, heavy, poisonous, pliable metallic element utilised in the solder that connects the pieces of our beloved iPhones. Without it, our phones would be dead. Mined lead ore and recycled lead are both used to make lead. China leads the world in lead production, followed by Australia and the United States.
