Ingemmet Updates Mining Register Information
The Geological, Mining and Metallurgical Institute (Ingemmet) published the National Mining Register 2021 with information updated to December 31, 2020; according to the Mining Rights and Cadastre System (Sidemcat).
With this information, mining rights holders will be able to comply with their payment obligations for the operational rights and penalties during 2021.
Ingemmet informs that payments for the operational rights and/or penalties are made from the first working day of January until June 30 of each year, through authorized financial entities.
The National Mining Register allows to know the area and the new amount to be paid with respect to the incorporated areas of extinguished mining concessions or mining claims, which can be downloaded here: link
In addition, the penalty in the Economic Administrative Unit, accumulation and division or fractionation, is calculated based on the oldest title.
Finally, please note that the Automatic Accreditation of the operational and penalty payments must be made using the unique code, which appears on the voucher together with the name of your mining right. This will allow you to be sure that your payment has been made correctly.
