Abstract

The preparation of the modernization of the non-metallic mineral resource inventory (and its concomitant recommendations) were parts of a particular task related to a project which has been operating since 2013. This project represents a process of co-operation between the Hungarian Office for Mining and Geology and the Geological and Geophysical Institute of Hungary. In conjunction with the work on the national inventory, different international re -porting standards — including the UNECE classification framework (UNFC-2009, UNECE 2013) — were also studied. This paper presents suggestions on how the national inventory of Hungary could be harmonized with an international
classification framework for reporting standards on mineral resources. A case study is also considered.
