When mining companies are faced with competing mining and prospecting right applications, their ability to respond effectively and timeously is critical. The ability to prospect is vital because it is the lifeblood of the mining industry. Disruption to mining operations have far – reaching consequences including loss of revenue, inability to pay royalties to the State and comply with the commitments under the approved Social and Labour Plans.
We have assisted multiple clients to engage with stakeholders, prepare detailed objections and submissions to protect their interests and where necessary, initiating court proceedings.
These matters require not only legal expertise, but also a clear understanding of the mining and environmental frameworks, regulatory processes and strategic positioning.
Because when time is of the essence, we get it done.
