Global Mining Explorer selects and normalizes designation fields and representative
coordinates and computes proximity, counts and screening indicators. The UNESCO
source material and adaptations of that material are provided under CC BY-SA 4.0.
Retain attribution, source links, licence links and this modification notice when
redistributing that material. Recipients retain the rights granted by the licence;
no additional restrictions are imposed on those rights. Other source licences are
identified separately. Access to this service does not remove these licence rights.

Material is provided as-is, without warranty. UNESCO does not endorse, sponsor or
verify this platform or its screening conclusions. Names are used for attribution;
no UNESCO logo or endorsement is licensed or claimed.

Only representative points are approved for screening from these feeds. MAB source
polygons retain unknown authority and are excluded from boundary screening and map
areas. Point distances do not establish official property or buffer boundaries.
Source coverage and geometry can be incomplete; consult the source for official
records. Hague protection is cultural-protection context, not a tourism designation
or a mining exclusion.

World Heritage DataHub metadata/representative points were enabled by the operator
on 30 October 2026 for the screening service under DataHub's stated CC BY-SA 4.0
licence. The current DataHub description no longer embeds the syndication link
observed on 28 October. The separate World Heritage Centre terms remain at
https://whc.unesco.org/en/syndication/ . Operator approval does not claim written
UNESCO authorization or legal clearance of every possible use. No wholesale
source-data export or Navigator/ArcGIS geometry acquisition is provided.
