These are global benchmark prices (monthly averages, nominal US dollars) from the World Bank's Pink Sheet. They are not the prices Mozambican producers receive, nor the value per tonne in Mozambique's customs data; for actual export values see Trade. Graphite, heavy mineral sands, rubies, cashew and sesame are priced in private contracts or paid assessments, so no free benchmark is shown.
