One could argue that the most precious metal being mined these days is lithium. The commodity price of lithium increased by about 400% over the past year, while the price of gold rose by just 4.3%. Shares of four top lithium miners increased in value by about 47%, all the way up to a jump of nearly 315%. None of these miners pays a dividend, however.
Just over half of gold-mining companies do pay a dividend, as do three of four copper miners and three of seven silver miners. Miners of other industrial metals, like aluminum and iron ore, often pay dividends as well.
We wanted to look at the miners that pay the highest dividends. We found five that pay a dividend yield of more than 6%.
