Ubukulu bwa molybdenum ubwaba mu mpanga ya calo buli mupepi na 0.00011%. Mupepi ne misango 20 iya fyakupangapanga ifya molybdenum fyasangwa, pali ifyo ifyakupangapanga efyacindama sana mu fyakupangapanga, ukukonkwapo ne fyakupangapanga ifya tungsten, ifyakupangapanga ifyakupangapanga, ifyakupangapanga ifyakupangapanga, ne fyakupangapanga ifyakupangapanga ifyakupangapanga. Ukulingana na mashiwi ayafumine ku bafwailisha ba fya mu mpanga aba ku United States mu 2015, amabumba ya molybdenum ayasangwa mu calo conse yali mupepi na matani amamilioni 11, kabili ayashininkishiwa ukuti yali mupepi na matani amamilioni 19.4.
Ukusalanganya mu fitungu
Ifyuma fya mu sonde lyonse ifya molybdenum fyasangwa sana ku kabanga ka cishima ca Pacific Basin, mu Andes, ukufuma ku Alaska na British Columbia ukupitila ku United States na Mexico ukufika ku Chile. Icaishibikwa sana ni mpili sha Cordillera mu America, umo mwaba ifipe ifingi ifya mukuba. Muli ifi mwali ififulo fya ku Clemensk na Henderson ifyasangwa mu United States; Iciputulwa ca nshita ica mukuba ica mu Chile; na Endaco na mu cishiba ca pa muulu ica mukuba ica mu Canada. Icalo ca China nacikwata ifipe ifingi ifya molybdenum, ne misumba ya Henan, Shaanxi, na Jilin eyakwata 56.5% iya fipe fyonse ifya calo conse.
Ukusabankanya kwa calo conse
Ukulingana na malyashi ayafumine ku bafwailisha ba fya mu mpanga aba ku United States mu 2015, amafuta ya molybdenum ayasangwa mu calo conse yali mupepi na matani amamilioni 11. Icalo ca China ecalo icakwata ifyuma ifingi mu calo conse, icakwata amatoni amamilioni 4.3, ukukonkwapo na United States (amamilioni 2.7) na Chile (amamilioni 1.8). Pamo, ifi fyalo fitatu fyakwata mupepi na 80% iya cipendo conse ica calo conse. Ifyalo fimbi ifyakwata ifipe ifingi ifya molybdenum paliba Peru (amatani 450,000), Canada (amatani 260,000), Russia (amatani 250,000), Australia (amatani 200,000), Mongolia (amatani 160,000), Armenia (amatani 150 ukufika kuli 130000). Amatoni 130,000, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Turkey, Uzbekistan, 60,000, na Iran, amatoni 50,000. Ukusabankanya mu China
China ni cimo ica fyalo ifikwata ifya kulya ifingi ifya molybdenum mu calo conse. Ukulingana na malyashi ayafumine ku ciputulwa ca mpanga ne fikwatwa, ukufika ku mpela ya mwaka wa 2013, ifipe fya mu China ifyashininkishiwa fyali amatoni amamilioni 26.202 (ifya mu cimuti). Mu 2014, ifipe fya mu China ifyashininkishiwa fyalikulile na matani amamilioni 1.066 (amamilioni ya fipe), ukuleta umutengo onse ukufika ku matani amamilioni 27.268 (amamilioni ya fipe). Kabili, ukufuma mu 2011, icalo ca China casangile ifipe fipya fitatu ifya mamilioni yabili aya matani yabili, ukusanshako cimo mu Shapinggou, mu citungu ca Anhui, ukukosha na kabili icifulo ca ciko nga calo icakulisha icakwata ifipe fya mafuta.
