NIC 052002 is the final six-digit endpoint for Underground mining of lignite (brown coal) including liquification. It should be selected only when the enterprise's primary resource extraction activity matches this title more closely than 052001 Opencast mining (or surface mining) of lignite (brown coal), 052003 Washing, dehydrating, pulverizing, compressing of lignite (brown coal) to improve quality or facilitate transport or storage, 052099 Other operations relating to mining and agglomeration of lignite (brown coal) n.e.c..
Choose 052002 only when operations, invoices and revenue narrative align with Underground mining of lignite (brown coal) including liquification. If the activity also includes 052001 Opencast mining (or surface mining) of lignite (brown coal), 052003 Washing, dehydrating, pulverizing, compressing of lignite (brown coal) to improve quality or facilitate transport or storage, 052099 Other operations relating to mining and agglomeration of lignite (brown coal) n.e.c., compare those pages before filing.
Use the mining or quarrying Sub-class only when the enterprise performs the extraction activity itself. Exploration, drilling, site preparation or contractor support may belong under mining support service codes instead.
No. Selling coal, ore, stone, sand or fuel without extracting it is usually a wholesale or retail trade activity. Section B is for extraction and directly related mining operations.
Check the parent hierarchy, compare 052001 Opencast mining (or surface mining) of lignite (brown coal), 052003 Washing, dehydrating, pulverizing, compressing of lignite (brown coal) to improve quality or facilitate transport or storage, 052099 Other operations relating to mining and agglomeration of lignite (brown coal) n.e.c., and confirm that the official title matches the main revenue activity. For regulated or filing-critical decisions, verify the source row in the MoSPI dataset.
A wrong code can cause mismatched business descriptions, follow-up questions or later compliance cleanup. It is better to compare nearby codes before filing than to correct a weak classification later.
Use the legacy converter only as a migration aid. Old NIC 2008 matches can suggest where to look, but NIC 2025 should remain the primary reference for new code selection.
NIC 052002 should be selected only when the official title matches the main revenue-generating activity. If the business also trades, transports, processes, installs or supports the same product or service, compare nearby NIC pages before filing. This reduces the risk of choosing a code that describes the product being handled rather than the activity your enterprise actually performs.
