That doesn't seem to track with the latest USGS numbers here. https://prd-wret.s3-us-west-2.amazonaws.com/assets/palladium...

Bolivia doesn't even chart for reserves (i.e., extractable right now). Have they brought significant capacity online in the last year since this report was collected?

For resources (extractable in principle) there are 62 million tons of identified resources worldwide, of which Bolivia has 9 million tons. That is a lot, about 15%, but certainly no where near 50-70%. Notably Argentina has 14.8 million tons.

I guess I'm just curious if there are better sources or if I'm misunderstanding the USGS report.
