"Harry tells me you are adopting the American mining code."

A new, probusiness mining code, a radical privatization program and Government successes against the guerrillas have dramatically turned around the mining picture here.

In 1991, a free-market mining code was adopted.

In 2005, the government introduced a new mining code replacing the existing out-dated legislation.

The new mining code offers attractive terms and establishes a clear regime from exploration and exploitation agreements.

The mining code allows foreign entities to control mining operations.

This represented the first major overhaul to the mining code since 1965.

In September 2011, Guinea adopted a new mining code.

A mining code was passed in 1925, and by 1927 all mining claims, some of which conflicted, were resolved.

A new mining code, sponsored by the World Bank, is supposed to make things easier, but the constant requests for bribes continue.
