The activity generating the emissions is copper mine operation and beneficiation, sulfide ore. The reference product is molybdenite. Molybdenite is a mineral. It is a black, lead-silvery grey mineral, with very low hardness while it is similar to graphite. It is the direct product from mining and beneficiation and a by-product from copper mine operation and beneficiation. It can be used in the following applications and/or processes: primary ore of molybdenum metal, as lubricant, metal alloys manufacturing like stainless steel and other superalloys, electric devices.  The reference product amount is 1. The cut-off classification is allocatable product. The activity type is ordinary ordinary transforming activity. Please refer to the ecoinvent documentation here for full details: https://ecoquery.ecoinvent.org/3.11/cutoff/dataset/23776/documentation.
