Commonly used classification criteria may refer to vegetation structure (as woodland, pastures, heathland) or to abiotic features such as running waters, limestone rocks or sand dunes, but also to relevant phases or stages of the life-cycle of a certain species or ecological guild, like wintering areas, nesting areas or wandering corridors etc. (4) “distribution (of habitat types)” means a collection of spatial objects where the habitat type occurs, giving information on the occurrence of one specific habitat type in time or space across analytical units. It is usually depicted or modelled based on other spatial objects used as analytical units, for instance across grid-cells (very frequently), bio-geographical regions, nature conservation sites or administrative units. (5) “habitat feature” means a habitat in terms of its exact location, size (area or volume) and biological information (e.g. occurring habitat types, structural traits, lists of species, vegetation types). (6) “species” means a taxonomic category ranking immediately below a genus and including closely-related and morphologically similar individuals which actually or potentially inbreed. In the context of the theme Habitats and Biotopes, “species” means all animal species, plant species or fungi species relevant to describe a habitat. (7) “vegetation” means the plants of an area considered in general or as communities, but not taxonomically. Vegetation can also be defined as the total plant cover in a particular area or on the Earth as a whole. (8) “vegetation type” means plants (or total mass of plant life) of a given area considered in general or as plant communities, but not taxonomically. 17.2.

Values for the code list MineralDepositGroupValue Value Name Definition organic organic Organic deposits result from the concentration of organic matter on, or close to the surface, by sedimentation and early diagenesis. residualOrSurficial residual/surficial Surficial processes are the physical and chemical phenomena which cause concentration of ore material within the regolith, generally by removal of chemical constituents by aqueous leaching. This includes laterite deposits and residual or eluvial deposits. placer placer Placer deposits represent concentrations of heavy minerals of certain elements, particularly of Au, U, and PGE, by sedimentary processes. continentalSedimentAndVolcanics continental sediments and volcanics Mineral deposits associated with sediments or volcanic material on continental crust. They form where volcanic rocks and ash layers react with alkaline groundwater, and may also crystallize in post-depositional environments over periods ranging from thousands to millions of years in shallow marine basins. sedimentHosted sediment-hosted Sediment-hosted deposits can be divided into two major subtypes. The first subtype is clastic-dominated lead-zinc ores, which are hosted in shale, sandstone, siltstone, or mixed clastic rocks, or occur as carbonate replacement, within a clastic-dominated sedimentary rock sequence. This subtype includes deposits that have been traditionally referred to as sedimentary exhalative (SEDEX) deposits. The second subtype of sediment-hosted Pb-Zn deposits is the Mississippi Valley-type that occurs in platform carbonate sequences, typically in passive-margin tectonic settings. chemicalSediment chemical sediment Mineral deposits, mainly Fe or Mn, of sedimentary origin which originated as chemical precipitates from ancient ocean water. The process of accumulating these sedimentary deposits is controlled by the physicochemical properties inherent in iron and manganese. marineVolcanicAssociation marine volcanic association Mineral deposits formed in a marine volcanic environment. Magmatic and hydrothermal fluids react with sea water for giving volcanogenic massive sulphides (VMS), which are at the origin stratiform deposits of Cu, Zn, Pb, Ag, Au. epithermal epithermal Epithermal deposits occur largely in volcano-plutonic arcs associated with subduction zones, with ages similar to those of volcanism. The deposits form at shallow depth, less than 1 km, in the temperature range of 50°-200 °C, are hosted mainly by volcanic rocks, and occur mainly as veins. veinBrecciaStockwork vein, breccia and stockwork It is a systematic group with special occurrence of mineral deposits in a finite volume within a rock. Vein: Fracture filling deposits which often have great lateral and/or depth extent but which are usually very narrow. Breccia: A fissure containing numerous wall-rock fragments, with mineral deposits in the interstices. Stockwork: a complex system of structurally controlled or randomly oriented veins. manto manto Manto ore deposits are defined by a strict stratigraphic control on their distribution, generally within a porous formation within a structural trap site. The source of ore within manto deposits is considered to be interformational, from a sedimentary source within an adjacent sedimentary basin, or from ore fluids driven off from intrusive rocks. skarn skarn Mineral deposits formed by replacement of limestone by ore and calc-silicate minerals, usually adjacent to a felsic or granitic intrusive body. porphyry porphyry Porphyry deposits are intrusion-related, large tonnage low grade mineral deposits with metal assemblages that may include all or some of copper, molybdenum, gold and silver. The genesis of these deposits is related to the emplacement of intermediate to felsic, hypabyssal, generally porphyritic intrusions that are commonly formed at convergent plate margins. ultramaficOrMafic ultramafic / mafic Mineral deposits related to mafic and ultramafic plutonism and resulting from magmatic processes such as fractional crystallisation. The main types of deposits are chromite and platinoids in ophiolitic peridotites, titanum within anorthosites, nickel, copper and platinoïds in ultramafic complexes. carbonatite carbonatites Carbonatites are intrusive carbonate-mineral-rich igneous rocks, many of which contain distinctive abundances of apatite, magnetite, barite, and fluorite, that may contain economic or anomalous concentrations of rare earth elements, phosphorus, niobium, uranium, thorium, copper, iron, titanium, barium, fluorine, zirconium, and other rare or incompatible elements. They may also be sources of mica or vermiculite. Carbonatites may form central plugs within zoned alkalic intrusive complexes, or as dikes, sills, breccias, and veins. pegmatite pegmatite Pegmatites tend to occur in the aureoles of granites in most cases, and are usually granitic in character, often closely matching the compositions of nearby granites. Pegmatites should thus represent exsolved granitic material which crystallises in the country rocks. However, an origin of pegmatite fluids by devolatilisation (dewatering) of metamorphic rocks is also envisaged. Pegmatites are coarse-grained rocks, mainly composed of quartz, feldspar and mica and are important because they often contain rare earth minerals and gemstones, such as aquamarine, tourmaline, topaz, fluorite, apatite and corundum, often along with tin and tungsten minerals, among others. metamorphicHosted metamorphic-hosted Mineral deposits associated to deep metamorphism, more than ten km, in a context in which carbonic and aqueous fluids may give birth to gold veins. gemsOrSemipreciousStones gems and semi-precious stones A piece of mineral, which, in cut and polished form, is used to make jewelry or other adornments. industrialRocks industrial rocks Industrial minerals are geological materials which are mined for their commercial value, which are not fuel minerals and are not sources of metallic minerals. They are used in their natural state or after beneficiation either as raw materials or as additives in a wide range of applications. 20.3.3.9.
