Introduction to

the Economic Census

PURPOSES AND USES OF THE ECONOMIC

CENSUS

The economic census is the major source of facts about

the structure and functioning of the Nation’s economy. It

provides essential information for government, business,

industry, and the general public.

The economic census furnishes an important part of the

framework for such composite measures as the gross

domestic product, input/ output measures, production and

price indexes, and other statistical series that measure

short-term changes in economic conditions.

Policymaking agencies of the Federal Government use

the data, especially in monitoring economic activity and

providing assistance to business.

State and local governments use the data to assess

business activities and tax bases within their jurisdictions

and to develop programs to attract business.

Trade associations study trends in their own and competing industries and keep their members informed of

market changes.

Individual businesses use the data to locate potential

markets and to analyze their own production and sales

performance relative to industry or area averages.

AUTHORITY AND SCOPE

Title 13 of the United States Code (sections 131, 191,

and 224) directs the Census Bureau to take the economic

census every 5 years, covering years ending in 2 and 7.

The 1992 Economic Census consists of the following eight

censuses:

• Census of Retail Trade

• Census of Wholesale Trade

• Census of Service Industries

• Census of Financial, Insurance, and Real Estate

Industries

• Census of Transportation, Communications, and Utilities

• Census of Manufactures

• Census of Mineral Industries

• Census of Construction Industries

Special programs also cover enterprise statistics and

minority-owned and women-owned businesses. (The 1992

Census of Agriculture and 1992 Census of Governments

are conducted separately.) The next economic census is

scheduled to be taken in 1998 covering the year 1997.

AVAILABILITY OF THE DATA

The results of the economic census are available in

printed reports for sale by the U.S. Government Printing

Office and on compact discs for sale by the Census

Bureau. Order forms for all types of products are available

on request from Customer Services, Bureau of the Census,

Washington, DC 20233-8300. A more complete description of publications being issued from this census is on the

inside back cover of this document.

Census facts are also widely disseminated by trade

associations, business journals, and newspapers. Volumes containing census statistics are available in most

major public and college libraries. Finally, State data

centers in every State as well as business and industry

data centers in many States also supply economic census

statistics.

WHAT’S NEW IN 1992

The 1992 Economic Census covers more of the economy

than any previous census. New for 1992 are data on

communications, utilities, financial, insurance, and real

estate, as well as coverage of more transportation industries. The economic, agriculture, and governments censuses now collectively cover nearly 98 percent of all

economic activity.

Among other changes, new 1992 definitions affect the

boundaries of about a third of all metropolitan areas. Also,

the Survey of Women-Owned Businesses has now been

expanded to include all corporations.

HISTORICAL INFORMATION

The economic census has been taken as an integrated

program at 5-year intervals since 1967 and before that for

1963, 1958, and 1954. Prior to that time, the individual

subcomponents of the economic census were taken separately at varying intervals.

The economic census traces its beginnings to the 1810

Decennial Census, when questions on manufacturing were

included with those for population. Coverage of economic

activities was expanded for 1840 and subsequent censuses to include mining and some commercial activities. In

1902, Congress established a permanent Census Bureau

and directed that a census of manufactures be taken every

5 years. The 1905 Manufactures Census was the first time

a census was taken apart from the regular every-10-year

population census.

The first census of business was taken in 1930, covering 1929. Initially it covered retail and wholesale trade and

construction industries, but it was broadened in 1933 to

include some of the service trades.

The 1954 Economic Census was the first census to be

fully integrated—providing comparable census data across

economic sectors, using consistent time periods, concepts, definitions, classifications, and reporting units. It

was the first census to be taken by mail, using lists of firms

provided by the administrative records of other Federal

agencies. Since 1963, administrative records also have

been used to provide basic statistics for very small firms,

reducing or eliminating the need to send them census

questionnaires. The Enterprise Statistics Program, which

publishes combined data from the economic census, was

made possible with the implementation of the integrated

census program in 1954.

The range of industries covered in the economic censuses has continued to expand. The census of construction industries began on a regular basis in 1967, and the

scope of service industries was broadened in 1967, 1977,

and 1987. The census of transportation began in 1963 as

a set of surveys covering travel, transportation of commodities, and trucks, but expanded in 1987 to cover business

establishments in several transportation industries. For

1992, these statistics are incorporated into a broadened

census of transportation, communications, and utilities.

Also new for 1992 is the census of financial, insurance,

and real estate industries. This is part of a gradual expansion in coverage of industries previously subjected to

government regulation.

The Survey of Minority-Owned Business Enterprises

was first conducted as a special project in 1969 and was

incorporated into the economic census in 1972 along with

the Survey of Women-Owned Businesses.

An economic census has also been taken in Puerto

Rico since 1909, in the Virgin Islands of the United States

and Guam since 1958, and in the Commonwealth of the

Northern Mariana Islands since 1982.

Statistical reports from the 1987 and earlier censuses

provide historical figures for the study of long-term time

series and are available in some large libraries. All of the

census data published since 1967 are still available for

sale on microfiche from the Census Bureau.

AVAILABILITY OF MORE FREQUENT

ECONOMIC DATA

While the census provides complete enumerations every

5 years, there are many needs for more frequent data as

well. The Census Bureau conducts a number of monthly,

quarterly, and annual surveys, with the results appearing in

publication series such as Current Business Reports (retail

and wholesale trade and service industries), the Annual

Survey of Manufactures, Current Industrial Reports, and

the Quarterly Financial Report. Most of these surveys,

while providing more frequent observations, yield less

kind-of-business and geographic detail than the census.

The County Business Patterns program offers annual

statistics on the number of establishments, employment,

and payroll classified by industry within each county.

SOURCES FOR MORE INFORMATION

More information about the scope, coverage, classification system, data items, and publications for each of the

economic censuses and related surveys is published in the

Guide to the 1992 Economic Census and Related Statistics. More information on the methodology, procedures,

and history of the census will be published in the History of

the 1992 Economic Census. Contact Customer Services

Census of Mineral Industries

GENERAL

This report, from the 1992 Census of Mineral Industries,

is one of a series of 12 industry reports; each provides

statistics for individual industries or groups of related

industries. Additional separate reports will be issued for

each geographic division showing statistics by State and

for special subjects, such as fuels and electric energy

consumed.

The introduction to the General Summary report discusses, at greater length, many of the subjects described

in this introduction. For example, the General Summary

text discusses the economic significance of the mining

sector, the relation of value added by mining to value

added by manufacture, some of the changes in statistical

concepts over the history of the census, and the valuation

problems arising from intracompany transfers between

mining establishments, manufacturing plants, and sales

offices and sales branches of a company.

SCOPE OF CENSUS AND DEFINITION OF

MINERAL INDUSTRIES

The 1992 Census of Mineral Industries covers all establishments with one paid employee or more primarily engaged

in mining as defined in the 1987 Standard Industrial

Classification (SIC) Manual1. This is the system of industrial classification developed by experts on classification in

Government and private industry under the guidance of the

Office of Information and Regulatory Affairs, Office of

Management and Budget. This classification system is

used by Government agencies as well as many organizations outside the Government.

The SIC Manual defines mining in the broad sense to

include the extraction of minerals occurring naturally:

solids such as coal and ores, liquids such as crude

petroleum, and gases such as natural gas. The term

‘‘mining’’ is used in the broad sense to include quarrying,

well operation, milling (crushing, screening, washing, flotation, etc.), and other preparations needed to make minerals marketable. Exploration is included as is the development of mineral properties. Services performed on a

contract, fee, or other basis in the exploration and development of mineral properties are classified separately but

within this division.

Mining operations are classified by industry on the basis

of the principal mineral produced or, if there is no production, on the basis of the principal mineral for which

exploration or development work is in progress. The

recovery of material from culm banks, ore dumps, and

other waste mineral piles is classified in the appropriate

mining industry according to the mineral product recovered.

The crushing, grinding, or other treatment of certain

earths, rocks, and other nonmetallic minerals not in conjunction with mining activities is not included in this division

but is classified as manufacturing. Hauling and other

transportation beyond the mine property and contract

hauling (except out of open pits in conjunction with mining)

also are excluded.

Mining operations carried on as secondary activities at

manufacturing establishments (such as clay pits at clay

products plants or sand and gravel operations at readymixed concrete plants) are not within the scope of this

census. However, selected data (production workers’ wages

and hours; total cost of supplies, fuels, electric energy, and

contract work; and quantity of production for mined products) on such mining activities have been obtained in the

1992 Census of Manufactures and are included in the

mining reports. They are clearly specified wherever included.

ESTABLISHMENT BASIS OF REPORTING

The census of mineral industries covers each mining

establishment of firms with one paid employee or more

operating in the United States. A company operating more

than one establishment is required to file a separate report

for each location. A mineral establishment is defined as a

single physical location where mineral operations are

conducted.

For oil and gas field operations and for contract services, the basis for reporting is different from the ‘‘establishment’’ basis used for other types of mining. Firms

operating oil and gas wells, drilling wells, or exploring for oil

and gas for their own account were required to submit a

separate report for each State or offshore area adjacent to

a State in which it conducted such activities. Firms that

performed contract services for oil and gas field operations

or for mining establishments were required to submit one

report covering all such activities in the United States and

to include information on receipts for services and productionworker wages and hours, by State. These consolidated

MINERAL INDUSTRIES–INDUSTRY SERIES CENSUS OF MINERAL INDUSTRIES V
 JOBNAME: No Job Name PAGE: 2 SESS: 12 OUTPUT: Tue Mar 7 14:08:42 1995 / pssw02/ disk2/ economic/ mic92i/ 0/ 07txtint

reports were then allocated to State establishments based

on the data reported at the State level. The 1992 figures

for establishments include the summation of operations for

each State allocated from these nationwide reports.

USE OF ADMINISTRATIVE RECORDS

From a mailout universe of about 28,500 mining establishments, approximately 11,000 small single-establishment

companies were not mailed a questionnaire. For these

establishments, some employment, payroll, and receipts

data were obtained from the administrative records of

other agencies. Selection of the small establishment nonmail cases was done on an industry-by-industry basis, and

a variable cutoff was used to determine those establishments for which administrative records were to be used in

place of a census report. This information was then used in

conjunction with industry averages and other information

to estimate the statistics for administrative-record and

nonresponse establishments. The first column in tables 2

and 4 provides an indication of the extent that these

establishments account for the figures shown. The value

of shipments and receipts and cost of supplies were

generally not distributed among specific products and

supplies for these establishments, but were included in the

product and supply ‘‘not specified by kind’’ categories.

Overall, establishments for which administrative-record

data were used accounted for less than 2 percent of total

value of shipments and receipts.

Theindustryclassificationcodesincludedintheadministrativerecord files were used for those establishments excused

from filing census forms. Generally, these codes were

assigned on the basis of brief descriptions of the general

activity of the establishment. Where the description was

incomplete, or where there were relatively fine lines of

demarcation among industries or between mining and

nonmining activities, the code assigned to an establishment could differ from that which would have been assigned

on the basis of more complete product or activity information. Therefore, the total establishment count should be

viewed as an approximate measure. The counts for establishments with 20 employees or more are far more reliable.

In the 1992 census, as in the 1987, 1982, 1977, and

1972 censuses, data for single-unit firms without paid

employees were excluded. This exclusion had only a slight

effect on industry aggregates for most industries. Data for

firms without employees were included in the 1963, 1958,

and 1954 censuses if they reported more than $500 in

(1) value of shipments and receipts, (2) cost of supplies

and purchased machinery, or (3) capital expenditures.

AUXILIARIES

Statistics for employment and payroll for individual

industries and industry groups also include employment

and payroll figures for administrative offices, warehouses,

storage facilities, and other auxiliary establishments servicing mining establishments. As in previous censuses,

respondents were asked to file separate reports (form

ES-9200) for any separately operated auxiliary establishments. Classification of employment and payroll data at

such auxiliary establishments was based on the mining

establishments served.

INDUSTRY CLASSIFICATION OF ESTABLISHMENTS

Each of the establishments covered in the census was

classified in 1 of 31 mineral industries in accordance with

the industry definitions in the 1987 SIC Manual. An industry

is generally defined as a group of establishments producing the same product or closely related group of products.

The resulting group of establishments must be significant

in terms of its number, value added by mining, value of

shipments and receipts, number of employees, and payroll. Application of these criteria led to the formulation of

31 mining industries, each assigned a four-digit code. The

classification system also provides broader groups of

industries, with 20 three-digit groups and 4 two-digit groups.

Within industries, the system provides for seven-digit products and five-digit product classes. Products are considered primary to an industry if the first four digits of the

product codes are the same as the industry code. Products

whose first four code numbers differ from the industry code

are called secondary products. To determine the industry

classification of an establishment, the seven-digit products

are grouped together according to the first four digits of the

product code. The first four digits of the group of products

with the largest value of production become the industry

code for the establishment. (For mineral service industries,

the classification is on the basis of receipts for services

performed.)

In most industries, establishments making products

falling into the same industry category use a variety of

processes. Separate statistics are provided on the various

types of operation. Whenever possible, separate figures

are shown for establishments with mines only, mines with

preparation plants, and preparation plants only. Separate

figures are provided by type of mine (underground, open

pit, and combination). Separate statistics also are provided

on producing and nonproducing operations, an establishment being defined as nonproducing if no mineral products

were shipped during the year.

Statistics usually are provided on the production of

minerals mined and used in the same establishment for

producing prepared minerals or used at the producing

establishment for fuel.

Differences in the integration of production processes

and types of operation should be considered when relating

the general items (employment, payrolls, value added,

etc.) to the product and material data.

VALUE OF SHIPMENTS FOR THE INDUSTRY

COMPARED WITH VALUE OF PRODUCT

SHIPMENTS

This report shows value of shipments and receipt data

for industries and products. In tables 1 through 4, these

data represent the total value of shipments and receipts of

all establishments classified in a particular industry. The

data include the shipments of the products classified in the

industry (primary to the industry), products classified in

other industries (secondary to the industry), and miscellaneous receipts (repair work, sale of scrap, research and

development, installation receipts, and resales). Value of

product shipments shown in table 6 represents the total

value of all products shipped that are classified as primary

to an industry and includes those that were shipped by all

mining establishments regardless of their industry classification. Value of product shipments also may include some

products shipped from mining operations associated with

manufacturing establishments.

CENSUS DISCLOSURE RULES

In accordance with Federal law governing census reports,

no data are published that would disclose the data for an

individual establishment or company. However, the number of establishments classified in a specific industry is not

considered a disclosure; this information may be released

even though other information is withheld.

The disclosure analysis for the industry statistics in

tables 1 through 4 of this report is based on the total value

of shipments and receipts. When the total value of shipments and receipts cannot be shown without disclosing

information for individual companies, the complete line is

suppressed except for capital expenditures. If capital expenditures alone is a disclosure, only total capital expenditures

and cost of supplies statistics are suppressed. However,

the suppressed data are included in higher level totals.

SPECIAL TABULATIONS

Special tabulations of data collected in the 1992 Census

of Mineral Industries may be requested. The data will be in

summary form and subject to the same rules prohibiting

disclosure of confidential information (including name,

address, kind of business, or other data for individual

business establishments or companies) as are the regular

publications. Special tabulations are prepared on a cost

basis. A request for a cost estimate, as well as exact

specifications on the type and format of the data to be

provided, should be directed to the Chief, Manufacturing

and Construction Division, Bureau of the Census, Washington, DC 20233-6901.

Description of Industries and

Summary of Findings

This report shows 1992 Census of Mineral Industries

statistics for establishments classified in each of the

following industries:

SIC code and title

1474 Potash, Soda, and Borate Minerals

1475 Phosphate Rock

1479 Chemical and Fertilizer Mineral Mining, N.E.C.

The industry statistics (employment, payroll, value of

shipments, cost of supplies, etc.) are reported for each

establishment as a whole. Aggregates of such data for an

industry reflect not only the primary activities of the establishments but also all secondary activities performed by

the same establishments. This fact should be taken into

account in comparing industry statistics (tables 1 through 4

and 7) with product statistics (table 6) showing shipments

by all industries of the primary products of the specified

industry. The extent of the ‘‘product mix’’ is indicated in

table 5, which shows the value of primary and secondary

products shipped by establishments classified in the specified industry and the value of net shipments of primary

products of the industry produced as secondary products

by establishments classified in other industries.

Single-establishment companies with up to 20 employees (cutoff varied by industry) were excluded from the mail

portion of the census. For these establishments (and a

small number of larger establishments whose reports were

not received at the time the data were tabulated), data on

payrolls and receipts were obtained from administrative

records of other Federal agencies. This information was

used in conjunction with industry averages and other

information to develop estimates for all statistics. The first

column in tables 2 and 4 provides an indication of the

extent that these establishments account for the figures

shown.

Establishment data were tabulated based on industry

definitions included in the 1987 Standard Industrial Classification (SIC) Manual1. Comparability for the product

classes and product codes that changed between the

1992 and 1987 censuses is shown in appendix B. This

appendix presents, in tabular form, the linkage from 1992

to 1987, and 1987 to 1992.

All dollar figures included in this report are at prices

current for the year specified and, therefore, unadjusted for

changes in price levels. Consequently, when making comparisons to prior years, users should take into consideration the inflation that has occurred.

The Bureau of the Census statistics on products for

these industries are not entirely comparable with product

statistics for the same industries published by the Bureau

of Mines or the Energy Information Administration. The

differences that occur result primarily from differences in

data collection methods, coverage, and objectives sought.

INDUSTRY 1474, POTASH, SODA, AND BORATE

MINERALS

This industry is made up of establishments primarily

engaged in mining, milling, or otherwise preparing natural

potassium, sodium, or boron compounds (other than common salt). Products of the industry include potash salts,

sodium borates, sodium carbonates, sodium sulfates, and

colemanite, a calcium borate. Dry-lake brine operations

are included in this industry, as well as establishments

engaged in producing the specified minerals from underground and open pit mines.

In the 1992 Census of Mineral Industries, Industry 1474,

Potash, Soda, and Borate Minerals, had employment of

5.5 thousand. The employment figure was 20 percent

below the 6.9 thousand reported in 1987. The total value of

shipments and receipts for the industry was $1.5 billion in

1992. The value added by mining was $1.2 billion in 1992.

Value added per employee was $210.0 thousand in 1992;

it was $132.6 thousand in 1987.

The total cost of supplies used by establishments

classified in this industry amounted to $424.9 million, while

the cost of selected supplies, minerals received for preparation, and purchased machinery installed amounted to

$218.4 million and is shown in table 7a. The total cost of

fuels used in this industry amounted to $106.1 million in

1992. Data on specific fuels used appear in table 7b.

Single-establishment companies in this industry with up

to 20 employees were excluded from the mail portion of

the census. The data for these establishments (and a

small number of larger establishments whose reports were

not received at the time the data were tabulated) were

imputed as described above. These establishments accounted

for less than 1 percent of the total value of shipments and

receipts.

1Some payroll and sales data for small single-unit companies with up to 20 employees (cutoff varied by industry) were obtained from administrative records of other government agencies

rather than from census report forms. These data were then used in conjunction with industry averages to estimate statistics for these small establishments. This technique was also used for a

small number of other establishments whose reports were not received at the time data were tabulated. The following symbols are shown where estimated data based on administrative-record data

account for 10 percent or more of the figures shown: E1–10 to 19 percent; E2–20 to 29 percent; E3–30 to 39 percent; E4–40 to 49 percent; E5–50 to 59 percent; E6–60 to 69 percent; E7–70 to 79

percent; E8–80 to 89 percent; E9–90 percent or more. 2States with 100 employees or more are shown. Some statistics are withheld to avoid disclosing data for individual companies. If employment is 100 or more, number of establishments is

shown and employment-size range is indicated by one of the following symbols: C–100 to 249 employees; E–250 to 499 employees; F–500 to 999 employees; G–1,000 to 2,499 employees; H–

Note: Data shown as a (D) are included in underscored figures above.

1Some payroll and sales data for small single-establishment companies with up to 20 employees (cutoff varied by industry) were obtained from administrative records of other government

agencies rather than from census report forms. These data were then used in conjunction with industry averages to estimate statistics for these small establishments. This technique was also used

for a small number of other establishments whose reports were not received at the time data were tabulated. The following symbols are shown where estimated data based on administrative-record

data account for 10 percent or more of figures shown: E1m10 to 19 percent; E2m20 to 29 percent; E3m30 to 39 percent; E4m40 to 49 percent; E5m50 to 59 percent; E6m60 to 69 percent;

Shipments of Primary Products: 1992 and 1987

[Million dollars. An establishment is assigned to an industry based on shipment values of products representing largest amount considered primary to an industry. Frequently, establishment

shipments comprise mixtures of products assigned to an industry (primary), those considered primary to other industries (secondary), and receipts for activities such as resales or contract work.

Columns A–E show this product pattern for an industry. Extent to which an industry’s primary products are shipped by establishments classified in and out of an industry is shown in columns F–H.

Appendix A.

Explanation of Terms

Employment and related items. The report forms requested

separate information on production, development, and

exploration workers for a specific payroll period within

each quarter of the year and on other employees as of the

payroll period which included the 12th of March.

All employees. This item includes all full-time and parttime employees on the payrolls of mining establishments

during any part of the pay period which included the 12th

of the months specified on the report form. Included are all

persons on paid sick leave, paid holidays, and paid vacations during these pay periods. Also included are employees working for miners paid on a per ton, car, or yard basis.

Excluded are employees at the mine but on the payroll of

another employer (such as employees of contractors) and

employees at company stores, boardinghouses, bunkhouses, and recreational centers. Also excluded are members of the Armed Forces and pensioners carried on the

active rolls but not working during the period. Officers of

corporations are included as employees; proprietors and

partners of unincorporated firms are excluded.

Production, development, and exploration workers. This

item includes employees (up through the workingsupervisor level) engaged in manual work (using tools,

operating machines, hauling materials, loading and hauling

products out of the mine in mine cars or trucks, and caring

for mines, plants, mills, shops, or yards). Included are

exploration work, mine development, storage, shipping,

maintenance, repair, janitorial, and guard services, auxiliary production for use at establishments (such as power

plant), recordkeeping, and other services closely associated with these production and development operations at

the establishment covered by the report. Gang and straw

bosses and supervisors who performed manual labor are

included, as are employees paid on either a time- or

piece-rate basis. Also included are miners paid on a per

ton, car, or yard basis and persons engaged by them and

paid out of the total amount received by these miners. In

addition, other employees at the establishment but not on

its payroll are included if paid directly through its own

employees, such as superintendents and supervisors. The

payments received by these types of employees are

included as part of the establishments payroll. Employees

above the working-supervisor level are excluded from this

category.

All other employees. This item covers nonproduction

employees of the establishment including those engaged

in the following activities: supervision above the workingsupervisor level, sales, highway trucking (by employees

not entering mines or pits), advertising, credit, collection,

clerical and routine office functions, executive, purchasing,

financing, legal, personnel (including cafeteria and medical), professional (such as engineers and geologists), and

technical activities. Also included are employees on the

payroll of the establishment engaged in the construction of

major additions or alterations to the plant and utilized as a

separate work force. (Workers engaged in regular maintenance and repair operations are not included here but are

classified as production, development, and exploration

workers.)

Separatelyoperated auxiliaryestablishments employees. This

item includes employment at separate central administrative offices or auxiliary units of multiestablishment companies and at those offices or units servicing more than one

establishment during the payroll period which included

March 12. Establishments are classified on the basis of the

industry or principal industry served. Employees at an

office located at or near the mining establishment are

usually included in the mine report.

All employees, average for year. The 1992 census report

form requested employment figures for production, development, and exploration workers for four selected pay

periods (mid-March, May, August, and November). For all

other employees, only a mid-March figure was requested.

The annual average is an average of the four monthly

figures for production, development, and exploration workers plus the March figure for all other employees. This

approach was used to simplify the schedule format and

lighten the reporting burden of respondents, since it was

found that the average of these selected pay periods

closely approximates, for most industries, the average

employment for the year that would be obtained from 12

monthly pay periods.

Payroll. This item includes the gross earnings of all

employees on the payroll of mining establishments paid in

the calendar year 1992. It includes all forms of compensation such as salaries, wages, commissions, payments

received on a ton, car, or yard basis, dismissal pay,

MINERAL INDUSTRIES—INDUSTRY SERIES APPENDIX A A–1
 JOBNAME: No Job Name PAGE: 2 SESS: 8 OUTPUT: Mon Nov 28 10:18:35 1994 / pssw02/ disk2/ economic/ mic92i/ 0/ 14apdxa

bonuses, vacation and sick leave pay, employee contributions to pension plans (such as 401(K) plan), and compensation in kind, prior to such deductions as employees’

Social Security contributions, withholding taxes, group

insurance, union dues, and savings bonds. The total

includes salaries of officers of corporations; it excludes

payments to proprietors or partners of unincorporated

concerns, and payments to members of Armed Forces and

pensioners carried on the active payroll of mining establishments. Also excluded are royalty payments to unions

and costs of smithing, explosives, fuses, electric cap

lamps, and mine supplies used in production, development, and exploration work but charged to employees and

deducted from their wages.

As in the case of employment and establishment figures, the annual payrolls of separate auxiliary establishments of multiestablishment companies are included in the

totals for individual industries and for States.

Production-, development-, and exploration-worker hours.

This item represents all hours that production, development, and exploration workers worked, both on active days

during which there was production or development work

and on inactive days when only security guards, inspectors, repair persons, and other maintenance persons were

on duty. It includes all hours worked or paid for at the

mining operations, except hours paid for vacations, holidays, or sick leave, when the employee was not at the

establishment. Included are actual overtime hours, not

straight time equivalent hours. Hours of working proprietors or partners and employees of contractors are excluded.

Supplemental labor costs. This item represents employer’s

cost for fringe benefits not included in payrolls.

Legally required expenditures, including Social Security

contributions. This cost includes employer contributions

for all programs required under Federal and State legislation, such as Federal Old Age and Survivors’ Insurance,

unemployment compensation, and worker’s compensation. Also included are legally required State temporary

disability payments.

Payments for voluntary programs. Included in this cost

are payments resulting from union negotiated contracts

and all employer payments of insurance premiums on

hospital and medical plans, life insurance premiums, and

premiums on supplementary accident and sickness insurance. For programs supported by joint employer-employee

contributions, only the employer payments are included.

Also included are payments or allocations on all pension

plans regardless of methods of administration, supplemental unemployment compensation plans, welfare plans,

stock purchase plans in which the employer payment is not

subject to withholding tax, and deferred profit sharing

plans.

Value added by mining. This measure of mining activity

is derived by subtracting the cost of supplies, minerals

received for preparation, purchased machinery installed,

purchased fuel, purchased electricity, and contract work

from the sum of the value of shipments (mining products

plus receipts for services rendered) and total capital

expenditures. This statistic avoids the duplication in value

of shipments and receipts which results from the use of

products of some establishments as supplies, energy

sources, or materials by others. Moreover, it provides a

measure of value added not only in mineral production but

also in the development of mineral properties. For these

reasons, it is considered to be the best value measure for

comparing the relative economic importance of mining

among industries and geographic areas.

Cost of supplies used, purchased machinery installed,

etc. Besides supplies used and purchased machinery

installed, this cost includes fuels and electric energy used

and contract work done by others for each establishment.

It includes charges to both the current and capital accounts.

It also includes the cost of items used during 1992 whether

they were purchased, withdrawn from inventories, or received

from other establishments of the company. For selected

supplies and fuels and for electric energy, both quantity

and cost data were requested. The cost data refer to direct

charges actually paid or payable (after discounts) for items

used during the year. Freight charges and other direct

charges incurred by the establishment in acquiring the item

are included. Companies whose records did not show

actual amounts used were asked to approximate use by

adding purchases (or receipts) during the year to beginning

inventory and subtracting ending inventory. Separate figures were requested for (1) selected supplies used, minerals received for preparation, and purchased machinery

installed; (2) electric energy purchased; (3) purchased

fuels used for heat, power, or the generation of electricity;

(4) contract work done by others; and (5) products bought

and resold in the same condition. Supplies and equipment

used in mine development, plant expansion, and capitalized repairs, which are chargeable to fixed assets accounts,

are included in this item, as are supplies furnished without

charge to contractors for use at the mining operation and

supplies sold to employees for use at the establishment.

Excluded are such costs as advertising, insurance, telephone, and research and consulting services of other

establishments or such overhead costs as depreciation

charges, rent, interest, and royalties.

Selected supplies used, minerals prepared, etc. In

addition to the total cost of supplies used, purchased

machinery installed, etc., which every establishment was

required to report, information also was collected on the

consumption of major supplies used in mining. These

inquiries were restricted to supplies which were important

parts of the cost of production, exploration, and development of a particular industry and for which cost information

was available. Table 7a contains information on specific

supplies consumed. On report forms for most mineral

industries (except the contract services and the crude

petroleum and natural gas industries), a uniform inquiry

A–2 APPENDIX A MINERAL INDUSTRIES—INDUSTRY SERIES
 JOBNAME: No Job Name PAGE: 3 SESS: 9 OUTPUT: Mon Nov 28 10:18:35 1994 / pssw02/ disk2/ economic/ mic92i/ 0/ 14apdxa

was included on minerals prepared at the reported establishments. Figures were obtained on crude minerals mined

at the establishment (quantity), received from other establishments of the company or purchased from others (quantity and cost), and received for preparation on a custom or

toll basis (quantity and estimated value). Establishments

consuming less than a specified amount (usually $25,000)

were not required to report the cost of a supply. For small

establishments for which administrative records were used,

the cost of supplies was included in ‘‘not specified by

kind.’’ (See Summary of Findings for the importance of

administrative records to any industry.)

Value of shipments and receipts. The amounts shown

as value of shipments and receipts for each industry

(tables 1 through 5), and for individual products or classes

of products (table 6), are the net selling values, f.o.b. mine

or plant after discounts and allowances, excluding freight

charges and excise taxes. Shipments includes all products

physically shipped from the establishment during 1992,

including material withdrawn from stockpiles and products

shipped on consignment, whether or not sold in 1992.

Prepared material or concentrates includes preparation

from ores mined at the same establishment, purchased,

received from other operations of the same company, or

received for milling on a custom or toll basis. For products

transferred to other establishments of the same company

or prepared on a custom basis, companies were requested

to report the estimated value, not merely the cost of

producing the items. Multiestablishment companies were

asked to report value information for each establishment

as if it were a separate economic unit. They were instructed

to report the value of all products transferred to other

plants of the company at their full economic value; to

include, in addition to direct cost of production, a reasonable proportion of company overhead and profits.

For all establishments classified in an industry, value of

shipments and receipts includes (1) the value of all primary

products of the industry, (2) the value of secondary products which are primary to other industries, (3) the receipts

for contract work done for others, except custom milling,

and (4) the value of products purchased and resold without

further processing. Receipts for custom milling are not

included to avoid duplication with the value of custom

milled ores included in an industry’s primary and secondary

products. Some duplication exists in industry and industry

group totals because of the inclusion of materials transferred from one establishment to another for mineral

preparation or resale.

Shipments of individual products. In the 1992 Census

of Mineral Industries, information was collected on output

for about 150 individual mineral products. In general, the

shipments figures of the 1992 and 1987 minerals censuses

were confined to separate totals for each crude and each

prepared mineral. When shipments were significant, separate figures also were obtained on crude minerals going

to preparation plants and those going to consumers.

Figures were collected on both quantity and value of

shipments. Shipments includes commercial shipments and

transfers of products to other operations of the same

company. For products that are used to a significant extent

within the same establishment for power or heat, and for

minerals mined and prepared in the same establishment,

total production figures or separate data on production for

such uses were collected. Typically, production also was

collected for products for which there was usually significant differences between total production and total shipments because of stock changes.

For service industries, the amount received or due for

services performed during 1992 was collected as a measure of output. For mine operators who also perform

services, the amount received for such services was

added to the total value of products shipped to determine

total value of shipments and receipts for each establishment.

Table 6 provides total shipments figures from all industries for each of the products primary to the industry

covered.

Capital expenditures. This item covers expenditures

made during the year for development and exploration of

mineral properties, for new construction, and for purchased machinery chargeable to fixed assets accounts of

the mineral establishment. They are the type for which

depreciation, depletion, or Office of Minerals Exploration

accounts are ordinarily maintained. Capital expenditures

during 1992 were determined as ‘‘additions completed

during the year plus construction in progress at the end of

the year minus construction in progress at the beginning of

the year.’’ Reported capital expenditures include work

done on contract, as well as by the mine forces. Expenditures for machinery and equipment include those made for

replacement purposes, as well as those for additions to

capacity. Excluded from these expenditures were costs of

maintenance and repairs charged as current operating

expense and expenditures for land and mineral rights.

Whenever applicable, separate figures were provided

for expenditures for development and exploration of mineral property, construction of preparation plants and other

construction, new machinery and equipment, used plant,

and used equipment acquired from others.

Gross value of depreciable assets. Assets data were

collected on buildings, other structures, machinery, equipment, capitalized mineral exploration and development,

and mineral land and rights for which depreciation, amortization, or depletion accounts are maintained. The values

shown represent the actual cost of assets at the time they

were acquired, including all costs incurred in making the

assets usable (such as transportation and installation

costs). The data were collected for the beginning and end

of the year. Assets at the beginning of the year plus new

and used capital expenditures minus retirements should

equal assets at the end of the year. For new construction

MINERAL INDUSTRIES—INDUSTRY SERIES APPENDIX A A–3
 JOBNAME: No Job Name PAGE: 4 SESS: 10 OUTPUT: Mon Nov 28 10:18:35 1994 / pssw02/ disk2/ economic/ mic92i/ 0/ 14apdxa

or other improvement projects in progress but not completed by the end of the year, the cumulative capital

expenditures were included in the beginning- and end-ofyear assets figures.

Retirements. This item represents the gross value of

depreciable assets sold, retired, scrapped, destroyed, abandoned, etc., during 1992. The values shown are the

acquisition costs of the retired assets. This item also

includes the value of assets (at acquisition cost rather than

current market value) transferred to other establishments

of the same company.

Depreciation. This item shows the reduction in value of

depreciable assets brought about through use, gradual

obsolescence, or the effect of the elements (decay or

corrosion) during the year. Included are charges against

assets acquired or completed during the year.

Rental payments. This item consists of rental payments

made to other companies for use of such depreciable

assets as buildings, other structures, machinery, and equipment. It does not include payments made to the parent

company or another subsidiary of the parent company for

the use of buildings and equipment owned by the parent

company or its subsidiary. The value of such companyowned assets is included in the gross value of depreciable

assets.

Rented equipment is reported according to the type of

lease negotiated with the lessor. If the lease qualified as an

‘‘operating lease’’ the periodic payments made to the

producer or the lessor are reported in the rental section.

However, if the leasing arrangement met the criteria set

down by the Financial Accounting Standards Board for a

‘‘capital lease,’’ the original cost or market value of the

equipment or building is reported as a value of fixed assets

and not as rental payments.

Current account expenditures. This item includes all

expenses for mineral properties, exploration, and development charged to current accounts. This includes all supplies, machinery, equipment, parts, fuels, power, etc., used

for development or exploration and charged to current

operating expenses. Also included are royalty payments,

acquisition costs for mineral land and rights which were not

capitalized, and the cost of maintenance and repairs

associated with exploration or development activity and

charged to current accounts.

Inventories. This item includes inventories of mined or

quarried products and supplies, parts, fuels, etc., at the

beginning and end of the year. Included as mined or

quarried products are stockpiles of products ready for

shipment and stocks of raw products awaiting treatment or

beneficiation. Beginning with the 1982 Census of Mineral

Industries, all respondents were requested to report their

inventories at (the lower of) cost or market prior to

adjustment to LIFO cost. This is a change from the 1977

census in which respondents were permitted to value their

inventories using any generally accepted accounting method.

Fuels and electric energy used. This item includes the

quantity and cost of fuels and electric energy used in

mining. For most industries, separate quantity and cost

figures are shown for purchased coal, distillate fuel oil,

residual fuel oil, gas, gasoline, and electric energy, and a

cost figure is shown for ‘‘other fuels’’ (see table 7b). Data

also were obtained on the quantity of fuels and electric

energy produced and consumed at the same establishment. These data are shown for coal, crude petroleum,

and natural gas used at the producing establishments for

heat and power, and for electric energy generated and

used at the same mining operations. For electric energy,

the quantity generated and used is approximated by subtracting the quantity of electric energy sold from the total

quantity generated (excluding generating station use).
