NAICS 212220—Gold Ore and Silver Ore Mining
National Industry · North American Industry Classification System (2022)
Where 212220 sits
- 21 Mining, Quarrying, and Oil and Gas Extraction
- 212 Mining (except Oil and Gas)
- 2122 Metal Ore Mining
- 21222 Gold Ore and Silver Ore Mining
- 212220 Gold Ore and Silver Ore Mining
Description
This industry comprises establishments primarily engaged in developing the mine site, mining, and/or beneficiating (i.e., preparing) ores valued chiefly for their gold and/or silver content. Establishments primarily engaged in the transformation of the gold and silver into bullion or dore bar in combination with mining activities are included in this industry.
Cross-references for 212220
- Establishments primarily engaged in manufacturing gold or silver bullion or dore bar without mining are classified in Industry 331410, Nonferrous Metal (except Aluminum) Smelting and Refining.
