In accordance with the Mining Act (Official Gazette RS, No. 14/14 – official consolidated text and 61/17-GZ), the Geological Survey of Slovenia, in its role of Public Mining Service, supports the ministry responsible for mining (Ministry of Infrastructure) in terms of sustainable mineral management and mineral policy. The Public Mining Service is authorized to maintain a Mining Register and Mining Cadastre on the national level, including a chronology of mining rights granting (“Mining Registry Book” web a...
The dataset contains information from de database BDMIN regarding the exploitations (abandoned, intermittent or active) and occurrences of industrial rocks and minerals. These data have been generated by the IGME throughout numerous projects, from the early 1970s to the present. The information is structured in different sections: Identification, location, mining domain, mining-I (Technical parameters), mining-II (Socio-economic and commercial parameters), geology and complementary information. The storage...
MR.Mineralresurser comprises nationwide information about mineral resources in Sweden to fulfil Inspire's data specification for the theme Mineral Resources. The dataset is harmonized according to specifications from various EU projects, including Minerals4EU and ProSUM, and contains information on mineral deposits, mines, production and mining waste. The dataset is based on SGU's mineral resources database (“Mineralresursdatabas” that contains point data on mineral occurrences and deposits), as well as co...
Under the Act of June 9, 2011, Geological and Mining Law (Journal of Laws No. 163, item 981, as amended) Polish Geological Institute – National Research Institute (PIG-PIB) performs the role of Polish Geological Survey. One of the tasks of PIG-PIB as Geological Survey is to create and maintain geological databases, in this including the system MIDAS (the System of management and protection of mineral resources in Poland – MIDAS). System MIDAS is the primary source of information on mineral resources of Pol...

Since the end of the 1980ies the geological, areal and production data of operating mining sites have been collected systematically by LGRB. The periodic update of this information is carried out every four or five years. Main reasons are 1) the preparation of the periodic follow-up of the 12 regional development plans, 2) the work on the near-surface mineral raw material maps published by LGRB, and 3) the periodical editing of the state report for near-surface mineral raw materials published by LGRB at th...
Since 1999, the Geologic Survey of Baden-Württemberg publishes a statewide geological map series 1 : 50 000 "Karte der mineralischen Rohstoffe 1 : 50 000 (KMR 50)". On it, the distribution of near-surface mineral raw material prospects and occurrences (mainly) and deposits (subordinate) is shown. This continuously completed and updated map currently covers around 60% of the federal state. It is the base for the regional associations in the task of mineral planning. The prospects and occurrences are classif...
This Downloadservice contains point locations of near-surface mineral raw material occurrences and mining sites in Baden-Württemberg (BW), which is one of 16 states of the Federal Republic of Germany. The information is harmonized according to the specifications of the MIN4EU database model as part of the Mintell4EU project. BW is rich in near-surface mineral raw materials. The most important are 1) Quaternary sands and gravels (Upper Rhine Graben Valley and glacial sediments of Upper Swabia), 2) Paleozoic...
Seafloor massive sulphides (SMS) are modern equivalents of on-shore (ancient) volcanogenic massive sulphides (VMS) which have constituted important mining targets through history in many regions of Europe. VMS deposits are generally stratiform accumulations of sulphides formed at or just beneath the seafloor as a result of volcano-magmatic activity. The sulphides are precipitated from hot hydrothermal solutions when they come in contact with cold seawater. Deposits of this type that form today are known as...
