that depends, for the longest time Peru and Bolivia were the best locations for tin, not only due to the resources there but the stable governments too. Lately though thats gone down the toilet, so now tin exploration might have to shift more to east asia, especially the Philippines and around Australia. There is serious potential for tin in Cornwall, UK that are being looked at again and there are two well known placer tin sources in Alaska north of Nome. Other than that though, tin is pretty rare and isnt a major byproduct from other base metals mining. Some major lead zinc deposits have tin as a byproduct but those deposits are pretty much all worked out. New tin discoveries are needed for sure, its going to be a pain finding them though. Pic related is from one of the tin outcrops i ve been snooping around last summer.
