Beryllium occurs in approximately 90 minerals with beryl and bertrandite as the two commercial ores. Only the USA has deposits of bertrandite. Outside the USA, firm data on beryl reserves are scarce because of the unpredictable nature of the concentration and occurrence of beryl. The data on non US reserves and resources are poorly delineated, and the figures above are, therefore, only broad estimates.
