Nonferrous metal (except aluminum) smelting and refining

The activity generating the emissions is gold production. The Reference Product is gold. Gold is a metal. It is soft and yellow, it is the most ductile and malleable of the metals. Refined gold has a purity of 99.50% and it is a transition metal. It is the direct product of mining, beneficiation and smelting gold ore, after being mined and beneficiated while it is the by-product of platinum group metals extraction and refinery operations. It can be used in the following applications and/or processes: coinage, ornaments, jewellery, gilding, textile industry, electronics, for high conductivity and suppressing secondary emissions, gold-plated grid wire, etc. The Reference Product amount is 1. The cut-off classification is allocatable product. The activity type is ordinary transforming activity. Please refer to the ecoinvent documentation for full details: https://ecoquery.ecoinvent.org/3.12/cutoff/dataset/6543/documentation
