Non-payment of mining surface rights is a current issue that concerns many mining rights holders. The latter were recently called to order by CAMI (Compagnie des Agents Miniers Intermédiaires) regarding the payment of these rights.
In an official press release, CAMI stressed that the period for presenting defenses is now closed. This means that the holders of the mining rights concerned no longer have the possibility of presenting arguments in their favor to justify the non-payment of surface rights.
It is essential to remember the importance of paying these rights in the mining sector. Indeed, surface rights represent a royalty that the holders of mining rights must pay to the owners of the land where the mining operations are located. This helps offset the use of this land and contributes to the development of local communities.
Non-payment of surface rights can have serious consequences for mining rights holders. In addition to violating current legislation, they risk financial sanctions and even the suspension of their mining activities.
It is therefore essential for mining rights holders to respect their obligations in terms of payment of surface rights. This guarantees the stability and sustainability of their mining operations, while contributing to the economic development of the regions where they are located.
With this in mind, CAMI reminds the holders of the mining rights concerned that it is essential to regularize their situation by respecting payment deadlines and paying the corresponding surface rights.
In conclusion, the non-payment of mining surface rights is a current subject which highlights the importance of respecting its obligations for holders of mining rights. By respecting deadlines and paying surface rights, they contribute both to the economic development of the regions concerned and to the legality of their mining activities.
