Wand Mining Taxonomy Is Cut and Polished

Posted by Joachim Bartels | Dec 19, 2011 | Industry Classifiactions, Member News, Taxonomy, United States, Wand | 0 |

Wand announces its new Mining Taxonomy. Like legal, mining is another industry that we have seen aggressively adopting taxonomies for use in document management and collaboration projects, including SharePoint 2010, Oracle UCM, and others. This taxonomy includes over 900 terms and 200+ synonyms covering most major mining business processes including exploration, extraction, extractive metallurgy, geology, and more. Quickly customize this taxonomy with your specific mine locations and begin tagging.

This taxonomy is more focused on mining and less on drilling, but there is a lot of crossover with the oil and gas industry and we plan to create a companion taxonomy for oil and gas soon.

Any mining organization should take a serious look at this taxonomy therefore we recommend you contact WAND for more information: mleher@wandinc.com or (303) 623-1200 x267
