Armenia's largest commodity exports by value. Each bar's share is that commodity's share of world trade in it, not its share of Armenia's own exports — the two are unrelated and shown so a bar near 100% marks a commodity Armenia dominates globally rather than one it merely exports a lot of.

Armenia's own tracked-export mix

Unlike the chart above, this treemap sizes each commodity by its share of Armenia's own $7.5 billion of tracked exports, not by world trade. Gold alone is 76% of it. See the full export dependency report for how Armenia compares with other countries.
