| Plain-language summary | Use this group for the broader activity area of mining of iron ores, including Mining of iron ores. Open the child codes when a more specific code is needed. | Use this group for mining of non-ferrous metal ores when the main activity includes Mining of uranium and thorium ores and Mining of other non-ferrous metal ores. Check exclusions and nearby codes before applying it to a mixed activity. | Use this class for mining of iron ores when the main activity includes Mining of ores valued chiefly for iron content and Beneficiation of iron ores. Check exclusions and nearby codes before applying it to a mixed activity. | Use this division for mining of metal ores when the main activity includes Ore dressing and beneficiating operations (e.g. crushing, grinding, washing, drying, sintering, calcining or leaching ore, gravity separation or flotation operations). Check exclusions and nearby codes before applying it to a mixed activity. |
