Method: what we add to the raw data

  • The layer was converted from an interactive service into a downloadable, analysable layer with ordered fields.
  • The mined product was translated into Arabic alongside the French original.
  • Dates were converted from their raw numeric storage (milliseconds) into readable dates.
  • Each concession and plant was attributed to its governorate, delegation and sector.
  • Results were aggregated by product and by governorate: count, area and most common product.

Limitations

  • Concessions are points with a centre coordinate and a numeric area, not polygon boundaries; the source does not publish boundaries.
  • The expiry date is as recorded and some have passed; this does not mean the concession is still valid.
  • The product is translated from free text; where no equivalent was found the Arabic field is empty.
  • Exploration permits are not included; these are exploitation concessions only.
  • Processing plants are six main sites, not every chemical industry facility.
