About GalliumPrice.com - Gallium Price Data and Market Intelligence

GalliumPrice.com tracks gallium prices, supply dynamics, and market developments for buyers, investors, and researchers who need reliable data on one of the world's most supply-constrained critical minerals.

What We Do

Gallium price data is scattered. Institutional sources cost thousands of dollars a year. Government statistics lag by 12-18 months. The result: buyers benchmark quotes without current data, and investors make decisions on incomplete information.

We fix that by publishing:

  • Current prices - Rotterdam in-warehouse and China ex-works benchmarks, updated weekly
  • Price history - Annual data from 2000 through 2026, with the China-Rotterdam spread clearly labeled
  • Market analysis - Supply-demand forecasts, geopolitical risk, and Western supply pipeline developments
  • Interactive tools - A price calculator, ROI calculator, and unit converter built for gallium procurement and investment decisions

Why Two Prices?

The single most confusing thing about gallium pricing is that two prices coexist: one in China, one in the West - and they differ by over $1,800/kg as of Q1 2026.

That gap did not exist before August 2023, when China imposed export licensing on gallium. Before the controls, the China-Rotterdam spread was $50-150/kg. After them, it blew out to the current level. Every price we publish identifies its geographic basis, purity grade, and source, so the numbers are always comparable.

Further reading: The full history of the China-Rotterdam spread divergence is documented in China's gallium export ban and gallium price history.
