Definition: Gold mined, by metal content. The latest year is a USGS estimate.
Unit: tonnes. Ordered highest to lowest — a ranking of figures, not a grading of nations. Ties share a rank.

Note: the USGS names only the producers it lists; a nation absent here is not recorded as producing none — any output elsewhere sits inside the published world total. Shares of world production, with the "Rest of world" remainder: https://terralore.co/commodities/gold.md
