Western Australia extracts up to 75% of Australia's 240 tonnes of gold per annum. The map implies it all comes from the eastern states. —Moondyne 16:21, 9 August 2007 (UTC)

Bubbles are placed nearer to the capital of each nation. The map reveals output distribution ratios across nations, not within.Anwar (talk) 00:19, 12 April 2008 (UTC)

This is an issue with nearly all this user's bubble maps. Either the bubbles are in weird places, or they cover up smaller nations, rendering the map of little value. Don't try removing it from the article though, this user does not AGF and does not want you to BB with his work. --Bridgecross (talk) 16:31, 11 April 2008 (UTC)

I just came across the same problem. E.g. nearly no gold is mined in New England in the U.S.A. There is absolutely no meaningful reason I could think of why the bubblers should be placed near the capital of a country. Best regards, --Trinitrix (talk) 09:12, 20 July 2013 (UTC)
