«FeatureType» ExplorationActivity
Class  
Name:  
 
Name: explorationHistory
Recaps the work which has been done from regional reconnaissance, surface detailed prospecting, subsurface prospecting, assessment of the resource, to evaluation of the ore deposit. Depending on the work done on occurrences and prospects, allows an estimate of the 'still to be discovered' potential of an area. A detailed assessment with no result would lead to a pessimistic opinion.

«featureType» Commodity
Class  
Name:  
 
Name: commodityDescription
-- Definition -- The commodities present in the resource ranked by importance order. -- Description -- Determining the rank of a commodity is not as simple as it may look: not only the tonnage (expressed in tons of metal) has to be taken into account, but also the scarcity and thus the price of the commodity. A deposit containing 500,000 t Cu and only 50 t Au will be classified as an Au-(Cu) deposit.

«featureType» Commodity
Class  
Name: source
The deposit/resource from which the commodity comes.
Name: commodityDescription
Exhaustive list of the commodities present in the resource, ranked by importance order. Determining the rank of a commodity is not as simple as it may look: not only the tonnage (expressed in tons of metal) has to be taken into account, but also the scarcity and thus the price of the commodity. A deposit containing 500,000 t Cu and only 50 t Au will be classified as an Au-(Cu) deposit.

«featureType» ExplorationActivity
Class  
Name:  
 
Name: explorationHistory
-- Definition -- Chronological list of surveys undertaken to better define the potential of a mineral occurrence. -- Description -- Recaps the work which has been done from regional reconnaissance, surface detailed prospecting, subsurface prospecting, assessment of the resource, to evaluation of the ore deposit. Depending on the work done on occurrences and prospects, allows an estimate of the 'still to be discovered' potential of an area. A detailed assessment with no result would lead to a pessimistic opinion.

«featureType» MiningActivity
Class  
Name:  
 
Name: resourceExtraction
-- Definition -- One or more periods of mining activity of the earth resource. -- Description -- Indicates if this resource is the subject of exploitation, and if so of which type. Depending on several factors (type of mineralization, size, grade, shape, depth, etc.) one or several (combined) methods may be used, including off site methods, surface mining (among which methods related to the exploitation of alluvial/elluvial deposits), underground mining. Knowledge about these methods is important as it may be strongly related to the quantity and type of wastes and environmental impacts generated by the extraction.
