List of countries by iron ore production
![](../I/m/World-Iron-Map3.png)
World iron ore production (thousands of tonnes) in 2013/2015:
500,000+
100,000–500,000
10,000–99,999
1,000–9,999
0–999
This is a list of countries by iron ore production based on U.S. Geological Survey data.[1] The mine production estimates for China are estimated from the National Bureau of Statistics China's crude ore statistics, rather than usable ore as reported for the other countries.[2]
