逐步跟踪一批货物的过境记录
全部溯源记录 →委内瑞拉超重质原油与沙特阿拉伯轻质原油同属"石油"，但只有其中一种几乎可在任何地方提炼。选择一种材料，选择其产地，观察每次过境时由谁持有。
Venezuelan extra-heavy crude to diesel, asphalt and aluminium anodes
Oil so thick it will not flow down a pipe, and cannot be refined by most refineries on Earth.
Saudi Arab Light to petrol, almost anywhere
The same commodity, a fraction of the effort — because of what the molecule is.
Alberta oil sands: mined like ore, refined like oil
The only oil in the world that is dug up with a shovel and graded like an orebody.
Chilean brine to a battery in a car
The ore is water. The first year and a half of processing is done by the sun, for free.
Australian spodumene to a battery, the fast way
Eight weeks instead of eighteen months, at the cost of a great deal more energy.
New Caledonian laterite to stainless steel
An island that smelts its own ore, and pays for it with the most expensive electricity in the industry.
Indonesian laterite to a battery cathode
A country that banned raw ore exports and built the processing industry instead.
Chilean sulfide concentrate to Chinese cathode to a wire
Chile mines the most copper in the world. China refines the most. Those are not the same sentence.

关键矿产完整清单 →关键性标识，依据以下文件评定： USGS Mineral Commodity Summaries 2026. 主要生产国份额为同一来源的2025年估算数据。
Iridium
The most corrosion-resistant metal known, and the second densest — a litre of it weighs about 22.5 kilograms.
Tin
A soft metal with a low melting point, which is why nearly every electrical joint in every device is held together with it.
Ytterbium
A rare earth used in the fibre lasers that cut steel in factories, and in some of the most accurate atomic clocks ever built.
Bauxite
A reddish soil-like rock, formed where tropical rain has rotted rock for millions of years, and the only ore aluminium is made…
Fluorspar
Calcium fluoride, the mineral that every fluorine atom in industry ultimately comes from — including the fluorine in battery…
Beryllium
A very light, very stiff metal that is transparent to X-rays and dangerous to breathe as dust.
Samarium
The rare earth in the magnet that works where neodymium cannot: very hot, or very cold, or in a place that must not corrode.
Vanadium
A metal that makes rebar dramatically stronger in tiny doses, and that can also store electricity dissolved in a tank of liquid.
