Field notes
The desk groups its material into energy, minerals, routes, places, and supply-chain pages, with a short guided route for first-time readers. Its text separates mine output from refining and transport, using examples such as cobalt refining being far from Congolese pits. Figures are described as rounded and dated, with the EIA, USGS, and IEA named as sources.
