Quirks

Cache-only: figures vendored in-package (the PDF URL carries a rotating token)
JM publishes NO regional split for ruthenium/iridium (world totals only) - USGS MYB 2021 stays the latest per-country source for the minor PGMs
'North America' is a JM regional aggregate (entity_type=regional_group); 'Others' a residual bucket
The report's final column is a forecast year and is deliberately not transcribed

The industry-canonical PGM supply-demand series and the only free per-element PGM supply newer than USGS MYB Vol I Platinum-Group 2021. Values converted '000 oz -> kg at 31.1034768 kg per koz.
