Description

Metallic and Industrial Minerals (MIM) Permits are issued for the purpose of granting the exclusive right to explore for metallic and industrial minerals in Alberta. In order to keep a MIM Permit in good standing, the permittee must perform a specified amount of exploration work throughout the term of the permit. The primary role of mineral assessment reports is to document and support expenditure claims for work done in order to keep a permit, or group of permits, in good standing. They also serve an important role of providing information on geological, geophysical, geochemical, drilling and other mineral exploration related activities that are completed each year in Alberta. Mineral assessment reports are required through the Metallic and Industrial Minerals Tenure Regulation. This guideline addresses the details of both the administrative and technical aspects of mineral assessment reports. It is intended to present the legislative requirements in a straightforward and clear way.
