Jurisdiction
The Mining Act 1978 (WA) provides the legislative framework for the granting of mining tenements and the regulation of mining operations in Western Australia. The Act establishes five types of mining tenement: prospecting licences, exploration licences, mining leases, general purpose leases and miscellaneous licences. It sets out the conditions of tenure, native title compliance requirements, the mining rehabilitation fund, environmental bonds, mine closure plans, royalty obligations, forfeiture and surrender provisions, and the role of the mining registrar. The Act is administered by the WA Department of Mines, Industry Regulation and Safety (DMIRS).
