China issued Monday a set of new regulations on the registration of mineral resource developers to collect accurate data to better land and resources management in the country.
The regulations issued by the Ministry of Land and Resources (MLR) stipulated that all entities engaged in the exploration and mining of mineral resources within the country's land and sea territory have to register and report what they have explored or mined.
Those needing to be registered and reported include the verified quantity, type and quality of mineral reserves as well as changes in this regard, said Zhen Shaojin, director of MLR's Mineral Exploration Management Department.
Describing the regulations as a major move for the government to improve management of mineral resources, he said that the regulations have also simplified procedures for registration, compared with current temporary regulations which were issued in 1995.
The new regulations will go into effect as of March 1. Part of the data or information collected during the registration will be made public periodically by the ministry, according to the new regulations. |
