Gross value added Mining and quarrying 2016-2020

As part of the Transparency Initiative D-EITI (Extractive Industries Transparency Initiative in Germany), data and information on the German raw materials sector are published. In addition to an overview of all mining rights in Germany, these also include data on the extraction of raw materials in Germany and on government revenues from the extractive industries. Figures on gross value added, turnover and external trade of the sector are also included. In order to increase financial transparency, an independent administrator balances the most important financial flows between the resource-promoting companies and the public authorities. To this end, companies shall disclose their payments and the competent tax authorities their revenue. The results of this so-called payment reconciliation and the legal payment reports are also published. In addition, the D-EITI deals with special topics such as renewable energy, recycling, subsidies, employment and social affairs. All data of the D-EITI are available in open data format.
