Though molybdenum is found in such minerals as wulfenite (PbMoO4) and powellite (CaMoO4), the main commercial source of molybdenum is molybdenite (MoS2). Molybdenum is mined as a principal ore, and is also recovered as a byproduct of copper and tungsten mining.
The world's largest producers of molybdenum materials are the United States, China, Chile, Peru and Canada. Molybdenum is only known to occur in a natural state chemically combined with other elements. Although a number of molybdenum-bearing minerals have been identified, the only one of commercial significance is molybdenite (MoS2) - a natural molybdenum sulfide. In ore bodies, molybdenite is generally present in quantities from 0.01-0.25% and is often associated with the sulfide minerals of other metals, notably copper.
