This data is not correct.

According to the EIA (Energy Information Admin.-US GOV) coal reserves are as follows:

Top 5 countries (in billion short tons)
US: 270,718 billion
Russia: 173,074
China: 126,215
India: 101,903
Bangladesh: 86,531

Your site is amazing, very helpful with great graphics. But they are not useful if the information in not correct (or updated)!
