Adopts a mining code
04 Mar 2014
The code extends the period for holding permits from seven to 10 years, with the possibility of prolonging by a further two years. It also stipulates that future permit areas would be reduced to 400 square kilometres from 1,000 square kilometres. It does not contain a controversial tax on windfall profits.
