MINES - Point Mine Features
This dataset provides point-based geographic features representing individual mine sites across Ireland. Each record corresponds to a specific mine location, allowing identification and mapping of mining activity at a site level. It is published as part of Ireland's national open data portal and can be used for spatial analysis, land-use planning, and environmental assessment related to mining operations. The dataset covers national territory and is maintained under Ireland's open government data initiative, though detailed attribute information beyond location is not specified in the available metadata.Mine features at individual mine sites.
