Mineral Tenements

This amalgamated layer is made up of several types of tenements. These are: Exploration Licences - Current (el), Tailings Licences - Expired (tlhst), Gold Mining Licences - Expired (gmlhst), Mineral Leases - Expired (milhst), Extractive Industry Work Authorities - Expired (ewahst), Mining Licences - Expired (minhst), Exploration Licences - Expired (elhist), Exploration Licence Moratorium Period Areas (mp), Mining Licences - Current (min), Extractive Industry Work Authorities - Current (ewa), ).

The boundaries are derived from a combination of entering graticular boundaries (exact MGA or AMG co-ordinates) and digitizing along areas of land status (Minerals and Petroleum version of plm25) which are unable to be mined or explored. Refer to the Mineral Resources Sustainable Development Act (MRSDA) for more detail.
