Critical mineral reserves: where the remaining deposits are

Estimated reserves by country for the same critical minerals. Reserves are a stock and production is a flow, so they are kept as separate indicators even though both are reported for the same year.

Definitions and method

Reserves as defined by the USGS: the part of the reserve base that could be economically extracted at the time of determination. Reserve figures are revised heavily between releases and are not comparable to resource estimates from other bodies.
