We have millions of cars, planes, rebar, jewelry, bullets, boats, phones, wires, etc. How is there still metal being made? Are we projected to run out anytime soon?

If you speak French because unfortunately the video has no English subtitles, you should watch [Aurore Stephant talk regarding mining in the next century](https://youtu.be/i8RMX8ODWQs?si=xqdT5S5dkVJI6xu1)

Basically, [in 2018, to follow the demand, we should extract until 2050 more than what had been extracted since Antiquity](https://youtube.com/shorts/Q9UIV2fVOH0?si=8bu6FWJO_hb1P4bM)

Good luck everyone
