The National Mining Agency (ANM) Issued a New Resolution, ANM No. 130/2023, Altering Previous Rules on Regulatory Measures Applicable to Mining Dam Safety.

On the last day 02/27, a new resolution was issued by the National Mining Agency. The aim is to simplify and reduce bureaucracy in administrative processes, as well as to correct material errors in resolution ANM No. 95/2022.

With the change, the National Mining Agency hopes to promote greater effectiveness regarding the safety of mining dams in the country. The measure comes at a time when investors are increasingly aware of the environmental risks involved in mining projects, pressuring companies to be more transparent regarding risk management.

The new resolution will come into effect from the date of its publication and will apply to all companies involved in mining projects. The ANM and the Ministry of Mines and Energy will continue to closely monitor compliance with the standards and guide companies that need to adapt to the new rules.
