Description of the dataset

  • For customers analysing the physical structure of metals markets, LSEG provides fundamentals covering facilities and physical assets relevant to supply, processing and market availability. We help customers understand how metals infrastructure supports production, trade and supply chain behaviour.
  • LSEG connects asset-level metals context with our wider commodities intelligence, including prices, research, forecasts, news and supply and demand fundamentals. Our coverage supports workflows that require a clearer view of physical market capacity, operating assets and infrastructure-linked risk.
  • We document this content through a 61-row data dictionary that defines key business elements, dimensions and element-level metadata. LSEG uses standardised identifiers, names, descriptions, short names, abbreviations, PermID references and language metadata to support consistent integration and interpretation.
