Mining Act 1992

This Part applies to mineral claims and opal prospecting licences (referred to collectively as small-scale titles) with respect to land within an access management area.

This Part does not require an access management plan in respect of a landholder who is a native title holder if—

the small-scale title concerned was granted or renewed after compliance with Subdivision P of Division 3 of Part 2 of the Commonwealth Native Title Act, and

the grant or renewal of the title was not an act that attracted the expedited procedure under and within the meaning of that Subdivision.

This Part does not apply if—

the small-scale title concerned was granted or renewed after compliance with a registered indigenous land use agreement under the Commonwealth Native Title Act, and

the agreement provides that an access management plan is not required under this Part in respect of a landholder who is a native title holder.
