Commodity intelligence

Commodity intelligence at Aurus is built the way resource estimates are: from cited sources, stated methods and stated limits. Where exhibits are published, the underlying data is drawn from the pre-cleared public set (USGS, World Bank, FRED, IEA), and every figure names its source and its year.
