Government needs to reform Law to face ilegal mining

It is a fact that the current Mineral Resources Code suffers with legal loopholes that prevent them to face illegal mining, stated the minister of Foreign Affairs, Robert Henriquez, who pointed out that not only was it about increasing the royalties that were paid to the State, but about the environmental measures and more severe penalties to apply.

The minister made this statement in a ceremony where the Petaquilla Gold, S. A company, paid royalties to the Municipality of Donoso, in a ceremony where Henriquez pointed out that the company led by engineer Richard Fifer Carles, has not suffered any incident in which a mining worker has been affected.

Henriquez regreted that since they abolished the Mining Code reforms there is a “legal loophole, the government has been left without the “legal muscle” to be able to face illegal mining in a more energetic way
