Information Session: Mining Amendment (Mine Rehabilitation) Regulation 2026

NSW Resources will host an information session to provide an overview of the amendments proposed to the Mining Regulation 2016 by way of the Mining Amendment (Mine Rehabilitation) Regulation 2026 (the proposed Regulation). The information session may be of interest to relevant title holders.

The proposed Regulation includes amendments in five key areas:

• Voluntary suspension of mining operations

• Probity statement requirements (currently known as the statement of corporate compliance, environmental performance history and financial capability)

• Standard conditions of mining leases

• Applications for assessable prospecting operations

• Application fees for Group 12 minerals (hydrogen and non-metals)

Following the presentation, there will be an opportunity for participants to ask questions on the proposed amendments.

The proposed Regulation and an Explanatory Guide for the amendments is available on the Department’s website at www.resources.nsw.gov.au/about-us/have-your-say.
