Name: | aggregation
Title: | AGG
Definition: | An indication that a feature instance is, or may be, representing a set of interrelated feature instances as an aggregate.
Description: | May be used when delineating interrelated features within a region that may or may not meet inclusion conditions to be delineated individually. For example, an aerodrome consists of numerous component feature instances such as runways, taxiways, NAVAIDs, and aircraft hangars, but may be collected as a single aggregate feature instance at a small scale.

areaStripMine | 6 The surface material is removed in successive parallel strips to expose the mineral, the spoil from each new strip being placed in the previously excavated one. They are used in generally flat terrain and are commenced with a trench or 'box cut' made through the overburden to expose a portion of the mineral seam. This trench is extended, in a series of cuts 30 to 60 metres wide, to the limits of the property in the strike direction. After mineral removal, a second cut is made parallel to the first one, and the overburden material from this cut is placed in the void of the first cut. The process is repeated in successive parallel cuts until the stripping ratio indicates that continued surface mining is uneconomical.
peatery | 8 A place in a bog or fen from which peats are cut.
quarry | 10 An open-air excavation for the extraction of stone intended principally for use in construction.
contourStripMine | 11 The surface material is removed in a strip along the side of a hill to expose the mineral. They are used where a mineral seam outcrops in rolling or hilly terrain. The method consists of removing the overburden above the mineral seam and then, starting at the outcrop and proceeding along the hillside, creating a bench around the hill. In the past, the blasted overburden spoil was simply shoved down the hill; currently, soil is either carried down the mountain to fill a chosen valley in horizontal layers or is replaced on the working bench itself in places where the mineral has been removed. If the break-even stripping ratio remains favourable, further cuts into the hillside will be made. Otherwise, if there are sufficient reserves under the knob of the hill, the mineral may be recovered by underground mining or by augering.
dredge | 13 The mining of loose mineral deposits (for example: sand or gravel) located underwater or at least partially underwater, using a floating vessel or platform outfitted with bucket, scooping and/or suction devices. The mineral deposits may be located in river, shallow tidal or fresh water areas.
belowSurface | 9 A mine reached by shafts bored from the surface. The shafts may be at any slope, including both vertical and horizontal.
stripMine | 12 The surface material is removed in a relatively shallow strip to expose the mineral. After mineral extraction the spoil is usually placed in a previously excavated strip.
opencast | 3 A method of mining by removing surface layers and working from above, rather than from shafts.
placer | 4 The mining of minerals from placer or alluvial deposits using water pressure (hydraulic mining) and/or surface excavating equipment. A placer is a deposit of sand, gravel, or earth, often located adjacent to a stream, containing particles of gold or other valuable minerals (for example: platinum, tin, diamond, ruby, and other gems).
prospect | 5 A surface mine from which easily accessible deposits are removed without the removal of overburden or the use of shafts.
borrowPit | 1 An excavation of soil for the sole purpose of fill material such as road and/or dam construction or for backfill material.

Definition: | The International Organization for Standardization (ISO 639-3) three character code that designates the language or macrolanguage of the source of a geographic name.
Description: | A macrolanguage is a set of closely related language varieties (dialects) that generally have a common linguistic identity and a common written form; this may occur when there is a transitional socio-linguistic situation in which sub-communities of a single language community are diverging. The language of the geographic name source should be distinguished from the language of origin or etymology of a geographic name; for example, considering the place name 'San Jose, California' the language of the source of this geographic name may be English if it is determined from a United States map, regardless of the fact that this geographic name means 'St. Joseph, California' in Spanish.

slope | 2 The targeted mineral seam is located below local drainage and does not outcrop at the surface, but is close enough to the surface to allow access to the mineral seam by means of a sloping tunnel. As with a drift mine, transportation of minerals, equipment and/or workers is often facilitated by the construction of a small-gauge railway, roadway or conveyer into the mine.
shaft | 3 The targeted mineral seam is located below local drainage and does not outcrop at the surface, and is far enough below the surface as to require access to be by means of a vertical shaft. On the surface above the mine shaft stands a superstructure (termed a 'pit-head' or 'pit-head frame'), which historically contained a winding engine and in modern times contains an electric hoist controller. This raises and lowers a cage within the shaft that serves as a lift for the transportation of minerals, equipment and/or workers.
drift | 1 The targeted mineral seam is located at or above local drainage and outcrops at the surface allowing main entry or access to the mine to be driven directly into the mineral seam. The entry is generally located on the slope of a hill and the removal of minerals (for example: coal) is often facilitated by the construction of a small-gauge railway, roadway or conveyer into the mine.
