About this source

World Bank Commodity Price Data ("The Pink Sheet") — the canonical free global commodity benchmark, 1960 to present. Crude oil (Brent / WTI / Dubai / average) at $/bbl, natural gas (US Henry Hub / Europe / Japan LNG) at $/mmbtu, coal (Australia / South Africa) at $/mt, plus the full ag / metals / fertilizer set and commodity price indices (2010 = 100). Both official workbooks: monthly series by month range, and the annual series in nominal or real (inflation-adjusted 2010) US dollars.
