- W115329485 abstract "oppose any change and those who favor outright repeal. The law, which has been on the statute books since the days of mining by pick and shovel, still provides the means by which mining companies acquire the right to most hardrock minerals found on federal land. The 1872 Mining Law provides for the location of certain types of valuable mineral deposits, such as gold and silver, on open public domain lands. To maintain a mining claim, the claimant must make $100 worth of annual expenditures (called assessment work) on or for the benefit of each mining claim, as well as comply with certain filing requirements. The government does not receive a royalty or other payments on minerals extracted from a mining claim. The 1872 Mining Law also provides that the claimant who meets certain statutory requirements may obtain a (i.e., fee simple title) to the claim. The statutory price for a patent is $2.50 or $5.00 per acre, depending on the type of mineral deposit. In recent years, much furor has arisen with respect to the processing of patent applications covering some 233, 000 acres of oil shale claims. While oil shale is no longer subject to the 1872 Mining Law, the patent applications relate to claims located before the law was changed. The legal debate over the claims was revived in fune 1990 when U.S. District Court fudge Sherman Finesilver in Denver ordered the Bureau of Land Management to process patent applications for six claims in Marathon Oil Company v. Lujan, No. 89-F-1829(D. Colo. 1990). Subsequently, the government obtained a stay of Judge Finesilver's decision from the Tenth Circuit. Concern with the 1872 Mining Law goes well beyond oil shale claims, however. Congress is under pressure to pass legislation to reform the law. Several reform proposals were introduced in both the House and the Senate, and an attempt is underway to secure a temporary congressional ban on the patenting of mining claims. Many people, including most environmental groups, strongly object to the 1872 Mining Law in its present form. Others feel that the law continues to work reasonably well. The following articles present each point of view. First, David Alberswerth explores the reasons why the 1872 Mining Law needs substantial changes. In the article following, Kenneth D. Hubbard defends the basic policy of the 1872 Mining Law." @default.
