SETTLED LAND ACT 1882 - SECT 9

Regulations respecting mining leases.

9.(1) In a mining lease

(i)The rent may be made to be ascertainable by or to vary according to the
acreage worked, or by or according to the quantities of any mineral or
substance gotten, made merchantable, converted, carried away, or disposed of,
in or from the settled land, or any other land, or by or according to any
facilities given in that behalf; and

(ii)A fixed or minimum rent may be made payable, with or without power for the
lessee, in case the rent, according to acreage or quantity, in any specified
period does not produce an amount equal to the fixed or minimum rent, to make
up the deficiency in any subsequent specified period, free of rent other than
the fixed or minimum rent.

(2) A lease may be made partly in consideration of the lessee having executed,
or his agreeing to execute, on the land leased, an improvement authorized by
this Act, for or in connexion with mining purposes.
