| Official inclusions | - - This division includes mining for metallic minerals (ores), performed through underground or open-cast extraction, seabed mining, and so on.
- - ore dressing and beneficiating operations (e.g. crushing, grinding, washing, drying, sintering, calcining or leaching ore, gravity separation or flotation operations)
| - - This class includes the manufacture of chemicals using basic processes. The output of these processes is usually separate chemical elements or separate chemically defined compounds.
- - manufacture of chemical elements (except industrial gases and basic metals)
- - manufacture of inorganic acids, except nitric acid
- - manufacture of alkalis, lyes and other inorganic bases, except ammonia
- - manufacture of other inorganic compounds
| - - This division includes the activities of smelting and/or refining ferrous and non-ferrous metals from ore, pig, metal waste or scrap, using electro-metallurgic and other metallurgical process techniques.
- - This division also includes the manufacture of metal alloys and super-alloys by introducing other chemical elements to pure metals. The output of smelting and refining, usually in ingot form, is used in rolling, drawing and extruding operations to make, for example, plate, sheet, strip, bars, rods, wire or tubes, pipes and hollow profiles and other basic metal products, and in molten form to make castings.
| - - production of unwrought aluminium, alloyed or not alloyed, from alumina or from aluminium waste and scrap
- - manufacture of aluminium bars, rods, profiles and wire
- - manufacture of aluminium tubes, pipes, tube and pipe fittings
- - manufacture of aluminium plates, sheets and strip, whether or not painted, varnished or coated with plastics
- - manufacture of aluminium foil, whether or not printed or backed with paper, paperboard, plastics or similar backing materials
| - - This division includes the extraction of solid mineral fuels through underground or open-cast mining and includes operations (for example, grading, cleaning, compressing and other steps necessary for transport) leading to a marketable product.
