Scope and Applicability Cover the full residual other metal-ore/concentrate category: manganese, cobalt, lead, zinc, tin, chromium, tungsten, molybdenum, titanium, niobium, tantalum, vanadium, zirconium, antimony and other individually qualifying metallurgical ore families, including actual mercury, bismuth, beryllium, lithium or rare-earth ore only after mineralogical/processing and no-other-category review. Manganese and chromium are included here by the historical official correspondence despite everyday ferrous/nonferrous terminology; do not drop them by metal-use convention. Each dataset selects an actual geological deposit/ore assemblage, raw/prepared/concentrated or admissible roasted mineral state and mine/plant/loading or expressly included receipt gate. Raw ore-only sorting/loading, hard-rock crushing/grinding/classification and actual physical gravity/flotation/magnetic/electrostatic separation, mineral-sand recovery and dewatering/drying are distinct conditional routes. Sulphide Pb/Zn flotation is an evidenced route, not mandatory for oxidised ores or other families. Scheelite and wolframite require separate actual gravity/flotation/magnetic circuits; cassiterite, chromite, ilmenite/rutile/zircon, columbite/tantalite and other mineral assemblages require their own actual phase, liberation and separator protocols, not a universal sulphide recipe. Include actual normal-metallurgical mineral preparation while retaining the declared qualifying ore/concentrate gate. Explicitly include both unroasted and roasted molybdenum ores/concentrates under HS2613; actual roasting has a separate measured phase, moisture, sulphur, oxygen, dust and off-gas balance. No blanket unheated limit and no default roast conversion or yield. Another thermal treatment requires individual normal-metallurgical processing and product-gate review; synthetic rutile, purified oxide, salt, metal, alloy, carbide or intermediate chemical cannot be called ore merely because its element came from a mine. The HS26 mineralogical-species/normal-metallurgy definition admits qualifying ores even for nonmetallurgical intended use, not every mineral containing a trace metal. Ferruginous manganese qualification requires measured dry Mn at least20% under HS2602; this criterion does not impose that purity on all manganese deposits or ores, and ordinary iron ore is separate. Current CPC3 notes/detail name14290 without family explanation/current HS2022 correspondence; historical official CPC2.1 HS2012/2017 list includes260200,260500,260700,260800,260900,261000,261100,261310,261390,261400,261510,261590,261710,261790. Use this and original HS2022 as candidate semantic evidence, not a current accepted HS mapping. Exclude uranium/thorium ores, copper/nickel/aluminium/precious-metal reference products, iron ore, industrial slag/ash/sludge/matte, scrap and recycled-metal residues, smelting/refining/electrowinning, metal/chemical manufacture, formulated mixtures and finished articles. Associated excluded-family co-products from actual polymetallic circuits retain separate identities, burdens and allocation, never relabelled residual ore. Natural radioactivity within a permitted rare-earth mineral requires actual U/Th/radionuclide impurity characterization and fate; a uranium/thorium reference ore remains excluded. Include actual development/closure, infrastructure attribution, controls, water, residues, storage/loading and included delivery; supplied mineral feed carries its actual provider rather than duplicate extraction. `wco-other-metal-ores-2022`, `unsd-other-ore-scope-2026`, `epa-leadzinc-beneficiation-1994`, `bgs-tungsten-beneficiation-2011`, `ifc-mining-2007` ## 2.

Measurement and Unit Rules | rule_id | Applies to | Required property | Required unit | Rule | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | reference_basis | final_product | Mass | kg | D is the positive accepted net gate-output total in kg. Exclude packaging and cancelled internal transfers. cp_output records D; every card uses per 1 kg reference flow. | | conversion | utility and material rows | Declared row property | kg; m3; MJ | Retain raw readings. Electricity: 1 kWh = 3.6 MJ. Mass/volume conversion requires measured density, temperature and applicable pressure; retain water content and active chemical fraction. | | category_balance | production | Mass | kg | D is independently calibrated positive net accepted as-received whole ore/concentrate mass kg at the selected gate excluding packaging/rejects/returns and reconciled with stocks. All cards use this same D. For measured wet-basis free-water fraction w,0 <= w <1, dry product mass = D*(1-w); preserve hydrate phases, distinguish structural water and carbonate/organic losses from free moisture. For measured dry-basis elemental assay gE,0 <= gE <=1, contained element mass = D*(1-w)*gE; retain D denominator rather than normalizing to contained Zn or another metal. For assay expressed as oxide-equivalent E_aO_b, contained element = dry mass*gOx*a*M(E)/M(E_aO_b); record species and molar masses. WO3/TiO2/ZrO2/Nb2O5/Ta2O5/V2O5/Cr2O3 equivalents are analytical conventions, not automatically actual oxide phases, mineral purity or smelting products. Mineral fraction requires independently identified phases and compositions, especially mixed Nb/Ta and variable wolframite/chromite assemblages; do not infer pure stoichiometric mineral from elemental assay alone. Geological resource cards record extracted contained element with its measured ore-grade basis, separately from purchased bulk ore mass, not a finished-metal product or duplicate ore resource. Reconcile metal-by-metal and bulk dry-solids feed, each accepted concentrate/co-product, tailings/waste rock/dust, stock changes and measured losses. Recovery = matched accepted output dry mass*element fraction / matched input dry mass*element fraction after stock corrections, not output grade alone; raw-ore-only gates have no invented concentrating yield. Actual roasting needs input/output phase-specific metal and sulfur assays, oxygen intake, water and SO2/dust/captured-residue balance with measured inventories; roasted Mo oxide-bearing mineral concentrate is not assumed pure MoO3 and no universal conversion is prescribed. Match fresh/recycled/evaporated/discharged water separately. No fixed assay, yield, reagent dose, fuel intensity, lost-metal zero or negative tailings credit. | ## 5.

Allocation and Co-product Handling | rule_id | Applies to | Rule | source_ids | | --- | --- | --- | --- | | allocation_hierarchy | joint production | Prefer process subdivision or defensible system expansion; otherwise use demonstrated physical causality. Use economic allocation only with consistent period, price, currency and sensitivity when physical causality is unavailable. Retain the unallocated inventory. | `ef-allocation-2021` | | allocation_product | reference and co-products | Subdivide actual mine/family and beneficiation/roasting circuits before allocating shared burdens. Retain unallocated joint ore inventory and independent accepted Mn/Co/Pb/Zn/Sn/Cr/W/Mo/Ti/Nb/Ta/V/Zr/Sb or other concentrates and any copper/nickel/precious co-products with their own identity and gate. Contained metals in one sold mixed concentrate are compositional assays, not separately sold outputs; mixed Nb-Ta concentrate is one actual product unless distinct accepted products are demonstrably recovered. Use physical causality where supported, otherwise consistent period/grade/price/currency economic allocation with sensitivity. Tailings/backfill are waste or managed internal placement unless independent saleable specification/fate justifies co-product; backfill does not automatically earn avoided aggregate/closure credits. Attribute lifetime development/closure once over measured accepted production; supplied feed links upstream burden or justified cut-off.

All cards use this same D. For measured wet-basis free-water fraction w,0 <= w <1, dry product mass = D*(1-w); preserve hydrate phases, distinguish structural water and carbonate/organic losses from free moisture. For measured dry-basis elemental assay gE,0 <= gE <=1, contained element mass = D*(1-w)*gE; retain D denominator rather than normalizing to contained Zn or another metal. For assay expressed as oxide-equivalent E_aO_b, contained element = dry mass*gOx*a*M(E)/M(E_aO_b); record species and molar masses. WO3/TiO2/ZrO2/Nb2O5/Ta2O5/V2O5/Cr2O3 equivalents are analytical conventions, not automatically actual oxide phases, mineral purity or smelting products. Mineral fraction requires independently identified phases and compositions, especially mixed Nb/Ta and variable wolframite/chromite assemblages; do not infer pure stoichiometric mineral from elemental assay alone. Geological resource cards record extracted contained element with its measured ore-grade basis, separately from purchased bulk ore mass, not a finished-metal product or duplicate ore resource. Reconcile metal-by-metal and bulk dry-solids feed, each accepted concentrate/co-product, tailings/waste rock/dust, stock changes and measured losses. Recovery = matched accepted output dry mass*element fraction / matched input dry mass*element fraction after stock corrections, not output grade alone; raw-ore-only gates have no invented concentrating yield. Actual roasting needs input/output phase-specific metal and sulfur assays, oxygen intake, water and SO2/dust/captured-residue balance with measured inventories; roasted Mo oxide-bearing mineral concentrate is not assumed pure MoO3 and no universal conversion is prescribed. Match fresh/recycled/evaporated/discharged water separately. No fixed assay, yield, reagent dose, fuel intensity, lost-metal zero or negative tailings credit. | Matched mass, volume, composition and stock measurements | Balance residual and uncertainty | | ### Data Quality Requirements | requirement_id | Applies to | Requirement | Evidence | | --- | --- | --- | --- | | representativeness | dataset | Use matching production and exchange periods, actual technology, geography and supplier state.
