Mining of hard coal
What this code covers
Use this class for mining of hard coal when the main activity includes Mining of hard coal: underground or surface mining, including mining through liquefaction methods and Cleaning, sizing, grading, pulverising, compressing, etc. of coal to classify, improve quality or facilitate transport or storage. Check exclusions and nearby codes before applying it to a mixed activity.
Official NACE Rev. 2.1 labels and explanatory notes are imported from the source dataset. Plain-language explanations are shown separately so readers can compare interpretation with the source text.
No child codes; this is a class-level code.
- mining of hard coal: underground or surface mining, including mining through liquefaction methods
- cleaning, sizing, grading, pulverising, compressing, etc. of coal to classify, improve quality or facilitate transport or storage
- recovery of hard coal from culm banks
- lignite mining, see 05.20
- peat digging, see 08.92
- support activities for hard coal mining, see 09.90
- test drilling for coal mining, see 09.90
- Compare with 05.20, 08.92, 09.90 when the main activity overlaps another code.
- Check national equivalent caveats before using this code for local registration or filing workflows.
- If the main revenue activity appears in an exclusion, compare the alternative code before deciding.

What is NACE 05.10 used for?
Use NACE 05.10 for mining of hard coal when the main activity matches this scope: Use this class for mining of hard coal when the main activity includes Mining of hard coal: underground or surface mining, including mining through liquefaction methods and Cleaning, sizing, grading, pulverising, compressing, etc. of coal to classify, improve quality or facilitate transport or storage. Check exclusions and nearby codes before applying it to a mixed activity.
What are typical examples for 05.10?
Typical examples include Mining of hard coal: underground or surface mining, including mining through liquefaction methods, Cleaning, sizing, grading, pulverising, compressing, etc. of coal to classify, improve quality or facilitate transport or storage, and Recovery of hard coal from culm banks.
When might 05.10 not be the right code?
Review another code when the activity is closer to lignite mining, see 05.20 and peat digging, see 08.92.
Which codes should I compare before choosing 05.10?
Compare 05.10 with 05.20 Mining of lignite, 08.92 Extraction of peat, and 09.90 Support activities for other mining and quarrying when the activity description is ambiguous.
Use this class for mining of lignite when the main activity includes Mining of lignite (brown coal): underground or surface mining, including mining through liquefaction methods and Washing, dehydrating, pulverising, compressing of lignite to improve quality or facilitate transport or storage. Check exclusions and nearby codes before applying it to a mixed activity.
Use this class for extraction of peat when the main activity includes Peat digging and Preparation of peat to improve quality or facilitate transport/storage. Check exclusions and nearby codes before applying it to a mixed activity.
Use this class for support activities for other mining and quarrying when the main activity includes Support services on a fee or contract basis, required for mining activities of divisions 05, 07, 08 and Exploration services by using traditional prospecting methods (e.g. taking core samples and making geological observations at prospective sites). Check exclusions and nearby codes before applying it to a mixed activity.
Use this class for manufacture of coke oven products when the main activity includes Operation of coke ovens and Production of coke and semi-coke. Check exclusions and nearby codes before applying it to a mixed activity.
Use this class for manufacture of refined petroleum products and fossil fuel products when the main activity includes Production of motor fuel: gasoline, kerosene, etc. and Production of fuel: light, medium and heavy fuel oil, refinery gases (e.g. ethane, propane, butane). Check exclusions and nearby codes before applying it to a mixed activity.
Use this class for site preparation when the main activity includes Clearing of building sites and Earth moving (e.g. excavation, landfill, levelling, trench digging, blasting). Check exclusions and nearby codes before applying it to a mixed activity.
Use this group for the broader activity area of mining of hard coal, including Mining of hard coal. Open the child codes when a more specific code is needed.
Rev. 2 code 05.10 maps to the same Rev. 2.1 class 05.10 Mining of hard coal.
Official close match imported from NACE Rev. 2.1.
Low operational impact is expected, but systems should still store the target Rev. 2.1 version explicitly.
Confirm the target version field and update references where Rev. 2.1 is required.
