Abstract

The advanced countries, including the United States of America, Japan, the United Kingdom, etc., struggle to secure mineral resources for their development of economy and industry themselves. We, the Republic of Korea need to respond to come up with an effective counterplan for the resource supply and demand accordingly. The Korea Institute of Geological Resources (KIGAM) is a state-designated approval statistic institution and has been building the mineral commodity statistic data of the minerals, officially defined by the mining act of the Korean government since 1986. The statistical data of mineral commodity consist of the sales volume, distribution, and production of mines, and the labor conditions for operation, etc., based on the type of ore and the production of the region, month and mine. KIGAM published the various statistical data containing the production, import, export of the mineral commodity in various forms, including annual and monthly reports and by English. This mineral commodity/mining statistics data can be viewed and downloaded from Korean Statistical Information Services(mici.kigam.re.kr), (www.kosis.kr) by Statistic Korea, Mineral Resources Statistics Portal and also bigdata environment-platform(www.bigdataenvirnment.kr).
