Precious metals intelligence

Rhodium Price Context

Rhodium is the smallest and most volatile of the precious metals. Tiny supply and concentrated catalyst demand drive extreme moves.

Supply

Rhodium is even more South Africa-concentrated than platinum. Annual mined supply is small — roughly 25-30 tonnes versus 3000+ tonnes of gold.

Demand

Roughly 80% of rhodium goes to autocatalysts. Substitution and thrifting matter a lot because there is no real fallback demand sink at high prices.

Volatility

Rhodium hit nearly $30,000/oz in 2021 before retracing more than 75%. Position sizing matters more for rhodium than for any other precious metal.
