Instruments registered in the Mining Register are broken down into three categories:

  1. Instruments required to be registered under the Mining Act, for example section 15AG(1) of the Mining Act which includes Registerable Dealings such as Agreements.
  2. Instruments required to be registered under Schedule 1 of the Mining Regulations 2020, for example an instrument providing for the renewal of a mining tenement.
  3. Discretionary information the Mining Registrar can include on the Mining Register in accordance with section 15AA(3) of the Mining Act, for example, a copy of evidence of public liability insurance.
The Department has published the Transparency (Mineral Policy 006) that outlines the framework for information contained in and available from the Mining Register. This policy includes a full list of instruments registered in the Mining Register and the availability of information available for download. The Mining Registrar maintains a discretion to register such information as they see fit.

From this Instrument tab any person can obtain (where available) a copy of an instrument summary report and the supporting document for an instrument.

  • An instrument summary report will provide evidence of the registration of a specific instrument.
    • An example of an instrument summary report would be a record of an approved program for environment protection and rehabilitation (PEPR) that is registered against a mineral tenement and limited information about the registration of the PEPR, such as the date it was approved and the mineral tenement numbers it was registered over.
    • Most instruments will have an instrument summary report available for download.
  • An instrument supporting document may also be available and will provide additional detail about the relevant instrument.
    • An example of an instrument supporting document available for download is a PEPR.
    • Not all instrument records will have an instrument supporting document available for download. For example, a dealing registered under section 15AB of the Act will have an instrument summary report with limited information about the dealing available for download, however an instrument supporting document will not be available for download from the Mining Register.
Each instrument document has a confidentiality status set by the Mining Registrar. Documents set as ‘confidential’ are not available for download.

It should be noted limited information will be available for instruments recorded on the Mining Register prior to January 2021.
