Kazakhstan silver per capita
Kazakhstan's estimated above-ground silver holdings equal 1.48 fine troy ounces per resident, based on 960 t and a UN 2025 population estimate of 20.8M. It appears at position #53 among 195 countries. This is a research estimate, not an official reserve figure or a survey of household ownership.

These medians compare country ratios in the same broad-estimate scope. They are not population-weighted world amounts. Kazakhstan's low–high model scenarios span 0.57–3.84 fine oz per resident.
Other silver measures for Kazakhstan
Investable silver is a subset of the broad estimate, not another amount to add. Mine production and underground reserves use separate definitions.
2025 USGS estimates
Silver production and underground reserves
Mine production is one year's output. Underground reserves estimate silver that could be economically recovered. Neither measures how much silver residents own.

What is sourced and estimated
No globally comparable official silver reserve observation is asserted.
Fund, bullion and ornamental components are country-attributed research estimates.
What this figure does not tell us
Sparse direct evidence produces a broad range.
Per-capita values are comparison ratios and are not investment advice or estimates of what a typical resident personally owns.

How to calculate and compare this estimate
Fine-metal tonnes × 32,150.7465686 ÷ 20,843,754 residents = fine troy ounces per resident. Display rounding does not change the rank. Total tonnes answer a different question from the per-person ratio.
Country-specific evidence is used where available; regional and peer-country estimates extend coverage to 195 countries. Compare dates, evidence and model scenarios as well as base values. An overlapping range does not establish a clear ranking difference.
Investment holdings, mine production and underground reserves have different coverage and definitions. Missing values in those views do not mean zero.
