In 2003, the Commission for Mineral and Ground Water Resources of the Republicof Slovenia (Commission) collected data and produced a balance of exploration, extraction and potential areas of mineral resources in the Republic of Slovenia - situation on 31 December 2002 for the first time. The balance was based on data gained from forms "Registration of the size of exploration and extraction area - situation on 31 December 2002". The Commission has not produced any such balance before, although a need for such information has appeared in the past already. From the documents stored in thearchives of the Geological Survey of Slovenia and the Commission it can be clearly seen that data on exploration and extraction areas for single types ofmineral resources were collected, but were not complete in a sense of physical size and actual states in single time periods of collecting and processing those data. From the balance of existing exploration, extraction and potential areas of all types of mineral resources in the Republic of Slovenia, situation on 31 December 2002, it can be summarized that they include 2.877 km2, which is about 14,2 % of the entire Slovenian territory.
