The service shows the last known activity status of mineral extraction sites registered at Direktoratet for mineralforvaltning (DMF), divided into the product groups building materials (superficial deposits or crushed rock), industrial minerals, metallic ore and natural stone.

The reports after exploration on the minerals owned by the State are reporting of performed research work within an area of ​​mineral exploration rights. The reports may include geological and geophysical work performed by the permit holder. The service shows approved and digitally localized reports received by Direktoratet for mineralforvaltning (DMF) based on rights given by the Mineral Act.

The data display areas covered with mineral permits for the Norwegian state’s minerals, according to the "Lov om erverv og utvinning av mineralressurser (mineralloven)" §7; the Minerals Act. The data set contains areas defining active exploration permits (UND) and extraction permits (UTV). The data set has overlapping surfaces; several mineral rights can be issued for the same geographical area, but then have different priorities. The mineral Exploration or extraction permit with highest priority, i.e. the first applicant for the right, in a given area is determined by the date The Directorate of Mining with the Commissioner of Mines at Svalbard (DMF) received the application. This is recorded in the attribute InnsendtDato. An exploration permit to the State’s minerals is awarded as a right to a defined area and not as a right to a specific deposit. The owner of an exploration permit with the best priority has the exclusive right to apply for an extraction permit following the Minerals Act § 29. The validity of the exploration permits is 7 years from the best priority whereas extraction permits have 10 years validity. This date is defined from the attribute "UtstedtDato". DMF is the owner of the data set. The data set is included in the WMS-service Bergrettigheter.

The service shows objects related to former mining activity from various sources indicating areas that require special care. The map contains data from Direktoratet for mineralforvaltning (DMF)'s internal registry of former mining objects and data from an external source (Statskog - The State-owned Land and Forest Company), and shows mines, mining openings and fuses, as well as safety areas attached to these. DMF's internal registry contains objects where the state by DMF has conducted inspection of old abandoned mines, and does not contain mining areas where others have had follow-up, such as Statskog. The activity zone associated with internal data is a polygon stretched 50 meter outside all objects associated with one particular mine. The map layer for external data contains points from the Norwegian Mapping Authority's M711 series, some of which are registered as a mine. A 200 meter alert zone has been added around these points.
