- iron ore, ~800 million tons
- coal, ~800 million tons
- grain (I think including oilseeds as well), ~300 million tons
- bauxite and alumina, ~80 million tons
- phosphates, ~30 million tons
Most shipped bulk commodities
One other factoid I found interesting in Prime Movers of Globalization was the relative volumes of the most shipped bulk commodities (besides crude and petroleum products, which dwarf them).
