-In Germany we use two approaches - one for Sands and rocks, one for salts. Information about the current relevance is shown in [[sector:ippu:mineral_industry:start|2.A - Mineral Industry]].+For particulate emissions, Mining is the main emissions source in the Mineral industries.

In particular, this concerns input variables on humidity and wind speed, which are differentiated into twelve regions.

-With the help of the GB tools, IEFs are reported on an annual basis, which are used for the inventory method AR x EF. The emission factors are virtual, but the calculation of this can be modified if further information on the parameters of the GB-tool is available. In particular, this concerns input variables on humidity and wind speed, which are differentiated into twelve regions. +With the help of the GB tools, IEFs are reported on an annual basis, which are used for the inventory method AR x EF.
