Critical Materials Atlas

Build your own supply-risk index

Every risk index hides a choice of weights. So make the choice yours: drag the eight sliders and watch all 32 critical materials re-rank instantly — with the correlation to the atlas’s published index updating live. Nothing leaves your browser; it’s all computed here on the public data.

Every risk index hides a choice of weights — here you make it. Set the eight sliders however you like, and all 32 materials re-rank live, with the correlation to the published index updating as you go.
The eight criteria, and what you’re comparing against

Each material is scored on eight risk criteria, each normalised to 0–1 (higher = riskier): mine and refining concentration, trade concentration, China’s share, the origin gap, lack of recycling, hard-to-substitute, and producer governance risk. Your weights combine them into a 0–100 score. The published supply-risk index and the data-driven entropy-TOPSIS are just two particular weightings — the correlations show how close your index lands to each.

Computed in-browser from riskmethods.json (the same min-max criteria behind the entropy-TOPSIS panel). “Biggest driver” = the criterion contributing most to that material’s score under your weights. A weighting exercise is a way to see your assumptions, not a forecast.
