Data
Where each mineral is actually produced
65 commodities, drawn from the USGS production table. Countries are shaded and marked by their share of modelled output, and ringed where an export measure is in force. Every figure is a claim the reports cite.

What the map does not show
Mine output is the ceiling on supply, not a measure of availability. Integrated producers consume their own feed and several jurisdictions prohibit ore export, so a large marker is not a large merchant market. The reports cover that distinction; the map deliberately does not pretend to. Processing and refining are also more concentrated than mining for most of these commodities, which is a finding the exposure band scores stage by stage.
