Notes
- Primary source is the USGS Mineral Commodity Summaries 2025, Graphite (Natural) chapter.
- USGS reports country values for a limited set of producers; remaining production is captured in "World total (rounded)".
- "Rest of world (implied)" is computed as: World total (2024e, rounded) minus sum of separately reported countries.
  Because the USGS world total is explicitly rounded, this residual can be slightly negative; for the assets we clamp it to 0.
- Units:
  - Production is in kt (thousand metric tons).
  - Reserves are in Mt (million metric tons) when USGS reports numeric reserves for a country.
