Meggen Raw Materials Days, 12th of September 2019
Content• Background
• ORAMA in general

• Data optimization for secondary raw materials (WP2)
• Demonstration of a proper data service (WP3)
• Workshops, trainings, webinars (WP4)

Meggen Raw Materials Days, 2019
The inability to easily produce reliable statistics about reserves, resources, stocks, and flows of raw materials needed for the
energy transition is a major issue for EU/EC
Background
Meggen Raw Materials Days, 2019
ORAMA• Optimizing quality of information in Raw Material data collection across
Europe
• Both primary & secondary raw materials
• From 12/2017 to 11/2019
• 16 partners, 14 countries, 1.7 M€
• Advisory Board: 6 stakeholder organizations
• Including EFG
• Technical, scientific and overall coordination: GTK
• Coordinator: Perttu Mikkola, [email protected]

WP1: Data optimization for primary raw materilas (led by BGS)
• National databases
• Differ in content, system used, updating frequency etc.
• European platforms have been developed
• Eg. European Minerals Knowledge Data Platform by
Minerals4EU, http://minerals4eu.brgm-rec.fr/
• Compiled automatically by harvesting the national databases
• Meaningful resource/reserve numbers only in fraction of
deposits and mineralizations -> adding up doesn’t produce
European resources/reserves

WP1: Primary raw materials (led by BGS)
1. United Nations Framework Classification (UNFC)
2. Bridging document between CRIRSCO and UNFC
3. Practical Exercises in Reporting Resource and Reserve Data
according to the United Nations Framework Classification (UNFC)
4. Decision flow tools for classifying resource data according to the UNFC
5. Worked examples
UK polyhalite,
Spanish Copper,
Hungarian aggregates
Meggen Raw Materials Days, 2019
UNFC system• Better possibilities for sustainable resource management
• Bridging documents from other systems exist and new ones can be compiled
• INSPIRE data service can embeed UNFC or other systems
• Widely known but not widely used
• The interest and application are increasing
• Recently voluntary in most countries
• Case studies show:
national systems may be
transferred into the UNFC/UNRMS

• Even more scattered than primary raw materials
• Different waste groups: end-of-life vehicles (ELV), photovoltaic panels (PV P), mine waste,waste electrical and electronic equipment (WEEE)
• National differences in data collection
• Lack of compositional data
• Confidentiality issues
Meggen Raw Materials Days, 2019
WP2: SRM – Challanges (UNU,WEEE FORUM)
WP3: Demonstration of applicability of the datamodel (BRGM)
Responsible authorities including Geological Surveys have to register mineral
resources, reserves or endowments with the indication of the reporting codes,
classification systems.
• This infrastructure enables the sharing of spatial information among public
sector organisations, facilitate public access to information across Europe.
• Based on the infrastructures for spatial information established and operated by the
Member States of the European Union.
It addresses
34 spatial
data themes
needed for
environmental
applications.
This Directive came into force on 15 May
2007. Has to implemented in by 2021.

ORAMA_WP4_1_Guidance To Data Harmonization For PRM and SRM as well
The overall aim of the Technical Guideline is to provide a credible and practical harmonization methodology on how to improve data collection methods for data providers, governments, policy makers and other interested stakeholders in Europe. The Technical Guidelines principles is expected to support the improvement of the data knowledge base across Member States.
WP4: Guidances, training materials, workshops, webinars (GEUS)
T4.2: Development of training materials based on the recommendations and technical guidelines – PPT and PDF

T4.3: Workshop and training sessions with a range of stakeholders, including data providers – ORAMA & JRC workshop in Ispra
• This workshop focused on sharing the outcomes of the ORAMA project.
• Emphasis was on the raw material data network in the EU looking at data collection, presentation and use. Parallel workshops were dedicated to introducing the detailed results and guidance for primary and secondary raw materials data.
• Clustering event: poster session where results of the ORAMA research were displayed
• Raw Materials Policies andKnowledge Management inthe EU: forward looking
• Social and environmentalknowledge on raw materialsupply chains
• Updating Knowledge onMember States' Governanceof Exploration and Mining
• Strengthening theknowledge-base on specificSecondary Raw Materials

Summary• UNFC has high potential in solving the challanges for
PRM and SRM as well.Flexibility in respect to both data quality & raw material
• CRIRSCO/national codes are needed also in future
• Data on both PRM and SRM need to be comparable, iffor nothing else than helping the mining and/or recyclingdiscussion (energy consupmtion issues may beimportant)
• Milestone in the data infrustructure for PRM and SRM inthe EU, GEOERA is a logical continuation.
Accessing the results from ORAMA

• Register as stakeholder
• All deliverables available for download
• Webinars coming up, early autumn
• Final event
• ½-day Planned to be in connection with/during EU “Raw materials Week” in November 2019.
