A Tonne That Actually Matches How Tin Trades
Scaled from today's per-gram rate of ₹4.65, a tonne of tin comes to ₹4,651,447.00 on September 21, 2026. Unlike gold, where a tonne is a purely theoretical scale-check, tin genuinely moves at tonne volumes internationally — world mine production totalled an estimated 290,000 tonnes in 2025, according to the US Geological Survey's 2026 Mineral Commodity Summaries.

Why Tin Prices Actually Rose in 2025
Both major international tin benchmarks moved up meaningfully in 2025: the LME cash price averaged 1,500 cents per pound, up 10% year-on-year, while the New York dealer price averaged 1,600 cents, up 13%. That happened even though global mine production was essentially flat, slipping slightly to 290,000 tonnes from 294,000 the year before — a sign that a specific supply disruption, not booming demand, was doing the work.
Myanmar's mining ban tightened supply directly
Wa State authorities in Myanmar kept the Man Maw mine — which accounts for almost all of the region's tin output — shut for an extended stretch following an August 2023 ban, and Myanmar's national production fell to just 12,000 tonnes in 2025 from 20,000 tonnes in 2024. That single country's output decline was large enough to move the global price needle even while China and Indonesia, the world's two largest producers, kept their own output roughly steady.
| Benchmark | 2024 Average | 2025 Average | Change |
|---|---|---|---|
| LME cash (cents/lb) | 1,368 | 1,500 | +10% |
| New York dealer (cents/lb) | 1,420 | 1,600 | +13% |

Recycling's Real Role at This Scale
A meaningful share of tin supply doesn't come from mining at all. An estimated 17,000 tonnes of old and new scrap tin was recycled in the United States in 2025, up 3% from the year before, with old-scrap recovery alone accounting for 22% of apparent US consumption. That's a genuinely significant secondary supply stream running alongside primary mine production, not a marginal add-on.

Tin Price Per Tonne — FAQs
Scaled from today's per-gram figure of ₹4.65, one tonne of tin works out to ₹4,651,447.00 on September 21, 2026. Global tin production itself is measured in tonnes -- world mine production totalled an estimated 290,000 tonnes in 2025, according to the US Geological Survey -- making the tonne a genuinely meaningful scale for this metal, not just an arithmetic reference.
It rose in 2025. The estimated annual average London Metal Exchange cash price for refined tin was 1,500 cents per pound in 2025, up 10% from 2024, while the New York dealer price averaged 1,600 cents per pound, up 13% year-on-year, according to USGS.
World mine production was an estimated 290,000 tonnes in 2025, slightly below 2024's 294,000 tonnes, with China (71,000 tonnes) and Indonesia (61,000 tonnes) as the two largest producing countries by a wide margin.
A major supply disruption played a real role: Myanmar's Wa State authorities kept the Man Maw mine, which accounts for almost all of the region's tin output, shut for an extended period after an August 2023 mining ban, pulling Myanmar's own production down to just 12,000 tonnes in 2025 from 20,000 the year before -- tightening supply even as other producers held roughly steady.
Refined tin metal, typically in ingot or bar form meeting specific purity standards, is what trades on exchanges like the LME. A meaningful share of supply also comes from recycling -- an estimated 17,000 tonnes of old and new scrap tin was recycled in the US alone in 2025, accounting for 22% of apparent US consumption.
