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 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 class for mining of uranium and thorium ores when the main activity includes Mining of ores chiefly valued for uranium and thorium content: pitchblende, etc. and Concentration of such ores. Check exclusions and nearby codes before applying it to a mixed activity.
Use this class for mining of other non-ferrous metal ores when the main activity includes Mining and preparation of ores chiefly valued for non-ferrous metal content: and Aluminium (bauxite), copper, lead, zinc, tin, manganese, chrome, nickel, cobalt, molybdenum, tantalum, vanadium, lithium/spodumene, etc.. 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.
A short checklist before choosing one code over another.
These codes share B MINING AND QUARRYING > 07 Mining of metal ores before they diverge.
07.2, 07.1, 07.21, 07.29 already list another compared code as related or often confused.
07.21, 07.29, 07 include official exclusions that may point to a better-fitting code.
