2001
Establishing Ad Hoc Group of Experts
2004
Harmonization each commodity classification
UNFC for Energy & Mineral Resources Document
The UNECE Committee on Sustainable Energy decided to create an Intergovernmental Ad Hoc Group of Experts on the Harmonization of Energy Reserves/Resources Terminology (ECE/ENERGY/47,para.13) to extend the principles of UNFC for Solid Fuels and Mineral Commodities to other energy resources(oil, natural gas and uranium)
The Ad Hoc Group of Experts was split into three groups: coal and minerals, petroleum and uranium. (TKI,Turkey participated in Coal & Minerals Group as a member)

In addition to above organizations several national classification systems played important role in harmonization process including revised national classification system of Russia Fed., including also that of the Australian Joint Ore Reserves Committee (the JORC Code).

Harmonization each commodity classification
UNECOSOC recommended an amendment to the 1997 UNFC incorporating petroleum(oil and gas) and uranium resources. This extended its application fully to fossil energy and mineral resources (UNECOSOC resolution 233/2004)
(TKI, Turkey participated to Extended Bureau of AdHoc Group of the Experts as Leader of Solid Minerals ( ) and actively in development of UNFC(2004) Version)

UNFC(2004)-
Coal, Uranium and the Other Minerals
Main Objective is to extend UNFC(1997)
Petroleum(Oil & Natural Gas) &
Uranium
For UNFC(2004) “Petroleum” and “Coal, Uranium and Other Minerals” :
Two sets of definitions, one for Minerals and one for Petroleum
- Sub-category codes and definition
Coal, Uranium & Other Minerals

33. M.Ersoy, UMREK Workshop, Ankara
UNFC(2004) Applied to Coal, Uranium& Other Minerals
- a comparision with the UNFC 1997(R70)
(NO BIG CHANGES HAVE BEEN DONE for SOLID MINERALS on the Second Version UNFC (2004) .All category & axes names, figures kept same as the UNFC (1997)) version. Because:
After UN/CMMI agreement(1999), joint definitions for mineral reserve and resource classes have ben frozen. (Joint UN/CMMI definitions for mineral reserve and resource classes (agreed upon in 1999) were replaced with the definitions in the R.70 Document-1997)
UNFC(1997) for solid fuels and minerals were in application worldwide by about 50 countries since 1997)

Requirements for Turkey: Internationally acceptable reporting standard
To end problem of terminology caos
Reporting not only by geological knowlodge but also by economic&social viability and Feasibility &project status
Require both public market reporting and inventories reporting
Public market reporting for investors &stock exchanges
invontories reporting for resource management
Compatible and comparable energy statictics
UNFC (2009) is a system
Long years involvement in UNFC studies
M.Ersoy, UMREK Workshop, Ankara

56. CONCLUSION and RECOMMEDATIONS
Establishing a National Committee comprised of all related parties reflecting Turkey conditions as a country in transition economy.
Legal infrastructure has already done as UMREK
Deep examination the similar country roadmaps (UNECE-EGRC is a good platform for this).
Alignment with UNFC, cross mapping with CRIRSCO Template for solid mineral through Bridging Document.
Close cooperation with TAG and EGRC
Establishing a Working Group on terminology while mapping with CRIRSCO Template.
Including competent person requirements and their governance into legislation
Preparing Gudelines & case studies
M.Ersoy, UMREK Workshop, Ankara

57. CONCLUSION and RECOMMEDATIONS Recommended Further Steps
After completing mapping study: reestimation of reserves/resources require strategic approach:
Adaptation within Mining Law
Organising training programs country wide
Lectures at the universities
Usage of advanced mining software packages for estimation of resources/reserves
Development of mining management system
