Circles are sized by each country’s share of the world total. Green marks are named mines in the atlas; gold marks are processing plants.
Country production — area is proportional to volume

This map shows one published series only — Mine production. Where the source also publishes another series for this material (refinery output, or a different chemical basis), it is on the material page as its own table. The two are never added.
The same data as a table
Every chart on this site has a table beside it, because a chart cannot be read by a screen reader, quoted in a report or checked against the source.
