澳大利亚矿业权授予和转让制度及对我国相关立法的借鉴意义

The Legal System of the Grant and Transfer of MineralTitles in Australia and Reference for Chinese Mining Law

澳大利亚的矿业权授予和转让制度作为世界矿业法律制度中比较完善的制度之一,在其漫长的发展历史中确实积累了非常优秀的立法经验,特别是在授予矿业权的条件设置、探转采优先权的保障、矿山建设和开采所需的土地使用权处置等方面。反观我国目前的矿业权出让转让制度,与澳洲的上述法律制度相比,我们尚有一些需要改进的地方,可以在修改矿产资源法的过程中根据我国的实际情况适当借鉴澳大利亚相关经验与制度,进一步完善我国矿业权出让转让制度。

The legal system of the grant and transfer of mineral titles in Australia has been developed for a long time, which makes it one of the best mining legal system in the world. The long history has seen great development taken place in the legislation of the above legal system, especially in the conditions that need to be fulfilled to grant the mineral titles, priority right for the holder of a prospecting or exploration licence to be granted a mining tenement, and the right to occupy and use the land in relation to mining production. In comparison to the aforementioned Australian legal system, Chinese legal system of grant and transfer of the mineral titles leaves a lot to be improved. Therefore, we can refer to the legal system of Australia and improve our legal system in light of the Chinese specific conditions accordingly, especially during the reform of our law on mineral resources.
