In this Alert, Partner Simon Panegyres and Associate Kylie
Panckhurst discuss two new initiatives by the Western Australian
Department of Mines and Petroleum (Department)
which are intended to enhance access to mining information in
Western Australia.
New online tenement information system to counter "data
mining"
The Department has announced that it will establish an online
system where information relating to the availability of tenements
will be provided, free of charge, following the registration of the
surrender of a tenement.
The information will be visible to all users at the same time
from the Department's website and distributed via an RSS feed
(enabling access to the latest items without having to check the
Department's website).
