Pick a company to see where it actually produces — every country in its footprint, shaded by capacity share — overlaid with the countries whose register actions name it (severity ring + action count), plus violet arcs to the chokepoint countries its material inputs depend on. The map is a lens; the dossier and register are the source of record.
TDK Corporation produces across 9 countries — 38% of mapped capacity sits in 🇨🇳 China (HQ 🇯🇵 Japan).
material exposures: neodymium · dysprosium · cobalt · lithium · nickel · tantalum · graphite · copper · tungsten
No register action names TDK Corporation yet — footprint only.
Its 9 scored input materials trace to 1 supplier country — 1 refines >70% in a single country. Top input chokepoint: 🇨🇳 China (dysprosium 99%, tungsten 90%, neodymium 85%, +6).Armed chokepoint: 🇨🇳 China has itself issued 23 register actions restricting the inputs it already dominates — neodymium (7), graphite (6), rare-earth-elements (6), dysprosium (5), +4 more — max severity 5/5. This share is a demonstrated lever, not just a concentration.Latest: China MOFCOM Announcement No. 27 [2026] — 20 more Japanese entities incl. National Institute for Defense Studies added to Control List · 2026-06-29 · 99d ago

Overlap node: 🇨🇳 China sits in two of the three layers — 38% of mapped capacity · dominant world supplier of 9 scored inputs (dysprosium 99%). It hosts capacity AND controls an input feeding it — a two-sided lever.
Named counterparties: this dossier names 1 firm with a source; 1 is in this corpus with a mapped footprint, and 1 of those produces in a country already on this map (🇨🇳 China · 🇺🇸 United States) — the named end of an exposure the country layers show anonymously.Apple Inc. (customer) 🇨🇳 CN ◆ ◆ = produces in a country already on this map.1 other dossier names TDK Corporation from the other side (customer).
Reading the map: green shading = the company's production countries by capacity share, with dots at facility cities (dashed = approximate, country-level). Violet arcs = INPUT DEPENDENCIES — they run from the country that dominates world production/refining of a material the company consumes to the company's base; the % is that country's share of world supply at the named stage, NOT an import/export volume. Severity rings = countries whose register actions name the company.
