Mining Laws and Regulations 2022

Mining Laws and Regulations 2022

The ICLG – Mining Law 2022 guide covers common issues in mining laws and regulations – including the acquisition of rights, ownership requirements and restrictions, processing, transfer and encumbrance, environmental aspects, native title, and land rights – in 15 jurisdictions, featuring two expert analysis chapters.

Holland & Hart’s Environmental and Natural Resources attorney Andrew Emrich served as the Mining Laws and Regulations 2022 contributing editor and is the contributing author of the expert analysis chapter, titled “Emerging from the COVID-19 Pandemic: Trade and Regulatory Challenges Facing the Mining Industry.” In this chapter, Emrich covers trade developments and regulatory changes impacting the mining industry, challenges faced in the mining industry as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, and a look ahead into to next year as the mining industry will be called upon to meet the expected new demand for mining products.

Holland & Hart’s Mining and American Indian Law attorney Karol Kahalley served as the contributing author for the “USA: Mining Laws and Regulations 2022” jurisdictional chapter. In this chapter, Kahalley provides insight into common mining issues, including recent political developments, foreign ownership and indigenous ownership requirements and restrictions, dealing in rights of mixed minerals, cancellation, abandonment and relinquishment, and much more.

These chapters were originally published in the ICLG – Mining Law 2022 guide.
