Termination and after-care measures covered by collateral under the Mining Act

Abstract

This report analyses the concrete criteria for determining the collaterals under the Mining Act that are composed of the measures based on obligations imposed under the Mining Act. Four different types of mines are used as examples to study the regulation of mining collaterals. Based on these case studies, a concrete and clear account is given on the individual factors to be taken into account in determining mining collaterals, and development proposals are also presented.
