MIN4EU harmonized dataset - "Minerals Inventory"

MIN4EU DB consists of two parts: Minerals Inventory data and Minerals Yearbook data. Minerals Inventory covers mineral occurrences and mines in Europe (onshore). The European Union has identified security of supply, improving environmental management and resource efficiency as key challenges for the raw materials sector. Data on the location and spatial distribution of primary and secondary raw materials in relation to exploration, exploitation, production and trading activities form the basis for decision-making in government and industry. Given the dynamic nature of such data, regular updates of comprehensive, reliable and harmonized information across borders are required, as there are several sources of non-harmonized data with different coverages developed over the last decades by national and international projects for different purposes. Data have been prepared and collected in the projects Minerals4EU, EURare, ProSUM, ORAMA, RESEERVE and MINTELL4EU, and others and are shared in the European Geological Data Infrastructure (EGDI).
