我国小矿占全部矿的90%以上,堪称小矿众多的国家。小规模采矿由于客体分散,手工和半机械化开采,在采矿主体准入、矿业权管理制度等原因,需要同大矿分离,进行专门立法或设置专门条款。菲律宾是对小规模采矿专门立法的少数国家之一,本文全文翻译了该矿法,希望对我国小矿立法有所启示。 China’s small mines account for more than 90% of all mines and can be called as many countries with small mines. Small-scale mining needs to be separated from the major mines due to the dispersal of objects, manual and semi-mechanized mining, the access of mining entities and the management system of mining rights, and special legislation or special provisions should be established. The Philippines is one of the few countries that specialize in small-scale mining. This article translates the mining law in full text, hoping to enlighten China’s small-scale legislation.
