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.
IXM S.A. (CMOC) produces across 8 countries — 25% of mapped capacity sits in 🇨🇭 Switzerland (HQ 🇨🇭 Switzerland).
material exposures: copper · cobalt · nickel · lithium · niobium
No register action names IXM S.A. (CMOC) yet — footprint only.
Its 5 scored input materials trace to 2 supplier countries — 2 refine >70% in a single country. Top input chokepoint: 🇧🇷 Brazil (niobium 89%) — nearest ex-🇧🇷 niobium producer: 🇨🇦 Canada ~8% — ~6-12mo to ramp (share-of-stage heuristic, not a sourced qualification time).Armed chokepoint: 🇧🇷 Brazil has itself issued 2 register actions restricting the input it already dominates — niobium (2) — max severity 4/5. This share is a demonstrated lever, not just a concentration.Latest: Brazil PL 2780/2024 establishing the Política Nacional de Minerais Críticos e Estratégicos (PNMCE) · 2026-05-06 · 153d ago
Substitutes & lead-time to switch: copper → · cobalt → · nickel → · lithium → · niobium →
Overlap node: 🇧🇷 Brazil sits in two of the three layers — 7% of mapped capacity · dominant world supplier of 1 scored input (niobium 89%). It hosts capacity AND controls an input feeding it — a two-sided lever.Also multi-layer: 🇨🇳 China (produces + supplies)
Named counterparties: this dossier names 3 firms with a source; 1 is in this corpus with a mapped footprint, and 1 of those produces in a country already on this map (🇨🇩 DR Congo · 🇨🇳 China · 🇧🇷 Brazil) — the named end of an exposure the country layers show anonymously.China Molybdenum Co., Ltd. (CMOC) (supplier, related party) 🇨🇩 CD ◆ ◆ = produces in a country already on this map.4 other dossiers name IXM S.A. (CMOC) from the other side (supplier). 2 named firms could not be placed on the map — named in a primary source but not yet onboarded as a dossier, or onboarded without a production footprint. Named, not missing.
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.
