Resumen

This Act principally provides for the mining of prescribed substance, i.e. (a) uranium, thorium, an element having an atomic number greater than 92 or any other substance declared by the regulations to be capable of being used for the production of atomic energy or for research into matters connected with atomic energy; and (b) any derivative or compound of a substance to which paragraph (a) applies. The Act declares title of Crown to prescribed substances existing in their natural condition, or in a deposit of waste material obtained from an underground or surface working, on or below the surface of land in Territories of the Commonwealth. Other provisions concern authorization of mining of prescribed substances in a defined area, the reporting of discovery of prescribed substances, the power of the Minister to obtain information, the definition of non-compliance with conditions attached to an authorization as an offence, the compensation for acquisition of prescribed substances by the Commonwealth, and regulation making powers of the Governor General.
