Mining of non-ferrous metal ores
What this code covers
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.
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.
- This group includes the mining of non-ferrous metal ores.
- Activities primarily classified as mining of iron ores
- Compare with 07.1, 07.21, 07.29 when the main activity overlaps another code.
- Check national equivalent caveats before using this code for local registration or filing workflows.

What is NACE 07.2 used for?
Use NACE 07.2 for mining of non-ferrous metal ores when the main activity matches this scope: 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.
What are typical examples for 07.2?
Typical examples include Mining of uranium and thorium ores and Mining of other non-ferrous metal ores.
When might 07.2 not be the right code?
No separate exclusion examples are available for this record yet; compare nearby hierarchy records before final selection.
Which codes should I compare before choosing 07.2?
Compare 07.2 with 07.1 Mining of iron ores, 07.21 Mining of uranium and thorium ores, and 07.29 Mining of other non-ferrous metal ores when the activity description is ambiguous.
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.
Rev. 2 code 07.2 maps to the same Rev. 2.1 class 07.2 Mining of non-ferrous metal ores.
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.
