 ' In addition to the commodities listed, arsenic, gold, uranium, feldspar,
graphite, and a vaz'iety of other petroleum products are produced, but information
is inadequate to make reliable estimates of output levels. 
 ' Reported figure. 
 ' This material, although reported as manganese ore, is believed to be manganiferous
irofl ore with an Mn Content of about 17% and as such is not equivalent to
material ordinarily reported as manganese ore, which generally contains 25%
or more Mn. 
 4lncludes gas produced from coal mines. Gross output of natural gas is not
reported, but It is believed to exceed reported marketed output by a relatively
inconsequential amount. 
 ' Data presented are for those products reported in official Czechoslovak
sources and in United Nations publications; no estimates have been included
for other products or for refinery fuel and losses. 
 
 
 
TRADE 
 
 In 1978-79, about two-thirds of Czechoslovakia's total foreign trade was
with centrally planned economy countries. Half of this was with the Soviet
Union, which supplied the main part of all Czechoslovakia's raw materials,
including almost all of is oil, gas, and iron ore. In return Czechoslovakia
supplied machines and other industrial products to the U.S.S.R." 
 
 In 1978, exports of machinery and equipment contributed 53% of the total
export value; fuels, mineral raw materials, and metals 15%. The value of
machinery and equipment amounted to 40% of the total import; fuel, mineral
raw materials, and metals 3O%.'~ Czechoslovak imports of selected commodities
