Description

This dataset shows the locations where industrial minerals have been identified as well as the former mining sites in Switzerland. Because of their specific chemical and/or physical properties, industrial minerals are used in various disciplines and industrial processes. Gypsum and salt are common industrial minerals, which are extracted and processed in Switzerland today. Their importance is the reason why they are represented separately in the Geoportal map viewer:

Currently, except for gypsum and salt, no industrial minerals are exploited commercially.
