Two to four countries side by side: their shares of world production, sites on record, World Bank indicators, grid intensity and mining area. A cell without a record says so.

Each share comes from one source's latest table and is never blended with another source. Rank counts the countries with a figure in that table. World Bank indicators carry their own year.
