-The mining process emits relevant amounts of particles. Quarrying and mining of minerals other than coal is subsumed, in particular mining of limestone, hard rock and building sands. Information about the current relevance is shown in [[[2-a-mineral-industry | 2.A Mineral Industry]]].+For particulate emissions, Mining is the main emissions source in the Mineral industries. 
 + 
 +In Germany we use two approaches - one for Sands and rocks, one for salts.

 ===== Methodology ===== ===== Methodology =====
  
-With the use of the 2019 GB method [((bibcite 1))], a Tier 2 method is available that can reflect different national conditions.+With the use of the 2019 GB method [(EMEP/EEA, 2019: EEA Report No 13/2019 EMEP EEA air pollutant emission inventory guidebook 2019, Copenhagen, 2019; URL: https://www.eea.europa.eu/publications/emep-eea-guidebook-2019/part-b-sectoral-guidance-chapters/2-industrial-processes/2-a-mineral-products/2-a-5-a-quarrying/view)], a Tier 2 method is available that can reflect different national conditions. In particular, this concerns input variables on humidity and wind speed, which are differentiated into twelve regions.
  
-Since the GB tool in principle calculates emissions for exactly one year [((bibcite 2))], files must be available for exactly those years in which input data are available. Intermediate years are interpolated in case of data gaps.+===== Activity Data =====
  
-With the help of the GB toolsIEFs are reported on an annual basiswhich are used for the inventory method AR x EFThus the activity data are presented transparently and can be discussed with data suppliers. The emission factors can be modified if further information on the parameters of the GB-tool is available.+As provided for in the GB modelwe use AD in the split hard rocksand and recycled material. These AD are taken from association information because the national statistics are not complete [(European Industry Association data are published annually at https://uepg.eu/pages/figuresWithin the framework of technical consultations, historical data were confirmed by the National Association for Mineral Resources (https://www.bv-miro.org/).)]. Data gaps are interpolated for time series concsistency. The application of the method therefore resulted in higher AD.
  
-+ __Trend discussion__ +===== Emission factors =====
-Trends in emissions follow the shrinking mining activities.+
  
-[[gallery size="medium" viewer="yes"]] +The calculation of emissions takes into account national circumstances and reduction measures.The calculations are available in total more than ten Excel files (individual years since 1990, annually from 2010).

-+ __Short description - Salt Production__ 
 Salt production is a sub-category of the mining activities in respect of the country specific approach used. Currently, a Tier 1 method is used: information on production of salts are multiplied with emission factors for TSP and PM. Salt production is a sub-category of the mining activities in respect of the country specific approach used.
