About Palladium Prices in Zambia
The palladium price in Zambia is derived from the international spot price (denominated in USD per troy ounce) and converted to Zambian Kwacha at the current exchange rate. Palladium is the rarest of the four main precious metals, with global annual mine production of approximately 210 tonnes.
Unlike gold and silver, palladium is primarily an industrial metal — approximately 80% of demand comes from automotive catalytic converters. Russia's Norilsk Nickel produces roughly 40% of global supply, making geopolitical risk a permanent feature of palladium pricing. The metal reached an all-time high of $3,440 in March 2022 before declining as platinum substitution accelerated.
