Despite its wild price swings in 2022, the Mineral Resources Ltd (ASX: MIN) share price has surged 300% over the past five years.

Subsequently, Mineral Resources ramped up its dividends to investors over the period â even during COVID-19.
Below, we take a look to see how much Mineral Resources has distributed in dividends to shareholders since 2017.

You may have noticed that the board elected not to pay a dividend this year which shocked shareholders.
The company reported a significant reduction in iron ore revenue due to weakening Platts and wider discounts. This led it to register an underlying net loss of $36 million, a mammoth difference compared to the $430 million net profit after tax (NPAT) in H1 FY21.
Investors will have to wait until 29 August when Mineral Resources is expected to release its FY22 financial results.
