MUST HAVE STATIONARY WEIGH STATIONS IN MINING
In accordance with the Circular No. 61/2017/TT-BTNMT of the Ministry of Natural Resources and Environment on December 22, 2018 on prescribing process and method for determination and sample statistical charts of actual mining output
Mining organizations and individuals shall be responsible for installing stationary weigh stations that match specific topographic conditions of mines, ensure that they are likely to control all of actually extracted minerals and type and size of scales installed at these weight stations correspond to scale, capacity and engineering infrastructure of mines and types of minerals to be extracted as well as types of transport equipment carrying minerals.
At the same time, integrating actual mining output data, including data on output of major minerals, accompanying minerals and waste aggregates (if any), into regular annual reports on mineral extraction.
The actual mining output of mineral water and natural hot water deposits which is defined as the arithmetic mean of output values shall be calculated based on the data sources as: output data derived from statistics and compilation of those recorded in books on the flow of mineral water and natural hot water measured at drilling holes or from compilation of those existing in specific stages of consumption of mineral water and natural hot water for different uses during the production process according to the approved mine design.
This Circular takes effect on March 07, 2018.
