Note-- 1 The agreement could be lodged immediately before the relevant application is made. 5--Major working area--Coober Pedy (1) Pursuant to subsection (1) of section 13 of the Act, the area within the Coober Pedy Precious Stones Field defined by Filed Plan FP 37814 lodged in the Lands Titles Office in Adelaide is identified as a major working area for the purposes of that section. (2) The major working area is-- (a) marked on the ground with 1.5 metre wooden pegs set in concrete; and (b) depicted (for reference purposes) by the plan in Schedule 1. Part 2--Plates and permits 6--Identification plates (1) A mining registrar who issues or renews a precious stones prospecting permit may issue to the holder of the permit up to three sets of identification plates (two sets for precious stones claims and one set for an opal development lease). (2) For the purposes of these regulations, four plates constitute a set. (3) The number of sets issued to the holder of a precious stones prospecting permit at a particular time will be determined according to the application of the holder of the permit. (4) The holder of a precious stones prospecting permit who does not hold three sets of plates may apply for an additional set or sets at any time, subject to the qualification that a person must not hold more than three sets of identification plates (two sets for precious stones claims and one set for an opal development lease). (5) Each identification plate must bear the relevant permit number and date of expiry. (6) If a precious stones prospecting permit is renewed, the holder of the permit must ensure that new identification plates are securely fixed to the posts marking out any area for a tenement within 14 days after the renewal. (7) If the holder of a permit loses an identification plate, the person may apply to a mining registrar for the issue of a replacement.

Part 3--Size, shape and dimensions of areas 8--Size (1) The maximum permissible area that can be pegged out for a precious stones claim within a precious stones field is 5 000 square metres, unless the land is within an opal development lease within a designated area. (2) The maximum permissible area that can be pegged out for a precious stones claim-- (a) within an opal development lease within a designated area; or (b) outside a precious stones field, is 20 000 square metres. (3) The maximum permissible area that can be pegged out for an opal development lease is 40 000 square metres. (4) If the area for a precious stones claim is partly within a precious stones field and partly outside a precious stones field-- (a) the maximum permissible area that can be pegged out within the field is 5 000 square metres (unless the land is within an opal development lease within a designated area); and (b) the maximum permissible area for the whole claim is 20 000 square metres in any event. 9--Shape, dimensions and availability (1) Subject to this regulation, the shape of an area pegged out for-- (a) a small precious stones claim--must approximate a square, with no side exceeding 50 metres in length; (b) a large precious stones claim--must approximate a rectangle, with a breadth not exceeding 50 metres and a length not exceeding 100 metres; (c) an extra large precious stones claim--must approximate a rectangle, with a breadth not exceeding 100 metres and a length not exceeding 200 metres; (d) an opal development lease--must approximate a square, with no side exceeding 200 metres in length. (2) If it is impracticable to comply with subregulation (1) because of the position of adjoining boundaries for other areas, an intervening or irregularly shaped piece of land may be pegged out for a tenement but, in this case, an application to approve the pegging must be immediately made to a mining registrar, or to a person authorised by the Mining Registrar for the purposes of this regulation. (3) However, the sides of an area pegged out under subregulation (2) for an opal development lease must in all cases be between 100 and 200 metres, subject to the qualification that a mining registrar may specifically approve a side that is less than 100 metres in a particular case. (4) Subject to subregulation (5), a person who has pegged out an intervening or irregularly shaped area under subregulation (2) will be taken to have effected a valid pegging (at least until the matter is determined by application under that subregulation). (5) A person who has pegged out an intervening or irregularly shaped area under subregulation (2) must not conduct mining operations on the land unless or until a written approval is given on application under that subregulation. Part 4--Mode of taking possession etc 10--Mode of taking possession (1) This regulation sets out the requirements for a valid pegging under the Act. (2) A post must be securely placed in the ground at each corner of the relevant area. (3) The post must-- (a) be devoid of marks or writing that refers to a previous pegging; and (b) have a cross-sectional dimension equal to or exceeding 7 centimetres; and (c) project at least 75 centimetres above the ground; and (d) in the case of a post for an opal development lease--be completely white. (4) The following provisions will then apply: (a) an identification plate issued to the holder of the precious stones prospecting permit that is appropriate to the particular form of tenement must be securely attached to the post as near to the top as practicable; (b) the date of pegging must then be shown on the post in clear legible characters immediately below the identification plate; (c) the following letter or letters must then be shown on the post immediately below the date of pegging: (i) in the case of an area for a small precious stones claim--"S"; (ii) in the case of an area for a large precious stones claim--"L"; (iii) in the case of an area for an extra large precious stones claim--"X"; (iv) in the case of an area for an opal development lease--"ODL". (5) The direction of the boundaries of an area pegged out for a tenement must be clearly indicated by substantial indicator markers fixed to each post. (6) If it is impracticable to comply with a preceding subregulation, a person may peg out an area for a tenement in some other manner but, in such a case, the person must lodge a notice of the manner of pegging at the nearest office of the Mining Registrar to the area that has been pegged out. (7) A notice under subregulation (6)-- (a) must be in a form determined by the Director; and (b) must be given within seven days after the pegging. (8) If a mining registrar, or a person authorised by the Mining Registrar for the purposes of this regulation, considers that the method of pegging out an area is unsatisfactory, he or she may order that a different method be used. (9) A person to whom an order is directed under subregulation (8) must immediately comply with the order. 11--Notification of pegging (1) The holder of a precious stones prospecting permit who has pegged out an area for a precious stones claim within (or partly within) a precious stones field must give notice of the pegging to the Mining Registrar in accordance with this regulation. (2) The notice-- (a) must be in a form determined by the Director and include information and diagrams showing the location and shape of the relevant area, including bearings from the nearest Departmental survey peg; and (b) subject to subregulation (3), must be lodged personally by the permit holder at the nearest office of the Mining Registrar to the field no later than 5 p.m. on the working day next following the day of pegging. (3) However, if the nearest office of the Mining Registrar to the field is closed-- (a) the notice may be lodged at the nearest office that is open; or (b) if the closure is for a period of more than five working days and a notice to that effect is prominently displayed at the office--the notice may be lodged personally or by pre-paid post at the Adelaide office of the Mining Registrar during the period of closure; or (c) if the closure is during a period when the office would normally be open (as indicated by a notice displayed at the office)--the notice may be personally lodged at the office on the first day that it reopens, or otherwise given in a manner approved or directed by the Mining Registrar. 12--Application for registration or renewal of tenement--access to office of Mining Registrar If a person wants to lodge an application to register or renew a precious stones tenement for an area within (or partly within) a precious stones field and the nearest office of the Mining Registrar to the field is closed-- (a) the application may be lodged at the nearest office that is open; or (b) if the closure is for a period of more than five working days and a notice to that effect is prominently displayed at the office--the application may be lodged personally or by pre-paid post at the Adelaide office of the Mining Registrar during the period of closure; or (c) if the closure is during a period when the office would normally be open (as indicated by a notice displayed at the office)--the application may be personally lodged at the office on the first day that it reopens, or otherwise made in a manner approved or directed by the Mining Registrar. 13--Display of registration number The holder of a registered tenement must ensure that the registration number for the tenement is clearly displayed on each post marking out the area of the tenement-- (a) in the case of a precious stones claim--within seven days after registration; and (b) in the case of an opal development lease--within 14 days after registration. Part 5--Working conditions--precious stones claims Note-- There are no working conditions for opal development leases. 14--Working conditions (1) Unless otherwise determined by the Warden's Court, a precious stones claim must, after 14 days from registration or, if the claim is over native title land, after 14 days from registration of an agreement or determination under Part 7 of the Act-- (a) in the case of a claim within a major working area under section 13 of the Act--be diligently worked by the holder of the claim personally on the basis of at least 20 hours of work per week; (b) in any other case--be diligently worked by or on behalf of the holder of the claim on the basis of at least 20 hours of work per week. (2) The following will be taken to be within the concept of diligently working a claim: (a) the performance of mining operations on the claim; and (b) work associated with the extraction of, or making merchantable, precious stones located within, or recovered from, the claim where that work is carried out on the claim; and (c) the preparation, erection or maintenance of machinery or equipment used in connection with mining operations where that work is carried out on the claim. (3) The requirements of this regulation do not apply between 15 December in each year and 14 March in the following year (both dates inclusive). 15--Amalgamation of working conditions (1) Subject to this regulation, the working conditions of contiguous precious stones claims may be amalgamated for a period not exceeding one year at any one time under the authority of an order of the Warden's Court. (2) However-- (a) precious stones claims can only be amalgamated if they are within a precious stones field; and (b) the total area of amalgamated precious stones claims cannot exceed 10 000 square metres. (3) A person may object to an application to amalgamate working conditions and the objection will be heard and determined by the Warden's Court. (4) The Warden's Court may during the currency of an amalgamation, if satisfied that it is appropriate to do so, on application, cancel an amalgamation. (5) The Warden's Court may determine that an order of the court under this regulation will be taken to have had effect from the date on which the relevant application was received by the court. (6) If the working conditions of two or more precious stones claims are amalgamated, the total working conditions of those claims will be taken to be complied with if the total number of hours required to be worked on the individual claims are worked anywhere within the boundaries of the amalgamated claims. 16--Suspension of working conditions (1) The holder of a precious stones claim may apply to the Warden's Court for the suspension of working conditions on the claim. (2) A person may object to an application under subregulation (1) and the objection will be heard and determined in the Warden's Court. (3) The Warden's Court may, after considering the application and any objection under subregulation (2)-- (a) by order, approve the suspension of working conditions on a claim; or (b) reject the application. (4) An order under subregulation (3)(a)-- (a) may be given subject to conditions determined by the Warden's Court and specified in the order; and (b) will operate for a period, not exceeding six months at any one time, specified in the order. (5) The Warden's Court may determine that the order will be taken to have had effect from the date on which the relevant application was received by the court. (6) If-- (a) an order under subregulation (3)(a) is given subject to conditions; and (b) the person who obtained the order contravenes, or fails to comply with, a condition, the order will be taken to have been revoked. (7) This regulation does not affect the exemption from the requirement to work the claim between 15 December in each year and 14 March in the following year but an application for the suspension of working conditions will (insofar as is relevant to the particular time of the year) be taken to include the period running between those two dates (inclusive). 17--Exemptions (1) The holder of a precious stones claim will not be liable to a penalty, or to the forfeiture of the claim, on account of a failure to comply with the requirements of these regulations relating to working conditions if-- (a) the failure is due to illness, or absence on urgent work in the public interest; or (b) the failure is due to flood, drought or other act of nature; or (c) the failure is due to an order of a court that specifically prevents the holder of the claim working the claim. (2) However-- (a) subregulation (1)(a) or (b) will only apply for two months in respect of a particular event or circumstance; and (b) subregulation (1)(a) and (b) do not apply in respect of a particular event or circumstance that occurred or existed before the area for the precious stones claim was pegged out. Part 6--General provisions for tenements 18--Removal of posts (1) If a post is in a place that interferes with the working of a precious stones tenement, the holder of the tenement may apply to-- (a) a mining registrar; or (b) an authorised person; or (c) a person authorised by the Mining Registrar for the purposes of this subregulation, for approval to remove the post. (2) A person to whom an application is made under subregulation (1) may, if satisfied that it is appropriate to do so, authorise the removal of the post. (3) An authorisation under subregulation (2)-- (a) must be in a form determined by the Director; and (b) may include directions to ensure the proper definition of the boundaries of the tenement while the post is removed; and (c) may be given on conditions specified in the authorisation. (4) A person who has the benefit of an authorisation under subregulation (2) must comply with any directions or conditions under subregulation (3). (5) A person (other than the holder of the relevant tenement) must not remove a post placed in the ground in order to mark a precious stones tenement (or an area for a precious stones tenement). (6) Subregulation (5) does not apply to-- (a) a person acting with the written permission of the holder of the tenement; or (b) a mining registrar, an authorised person, or a person authorised by the Mining Registrar for the purposes of this subregulation, removing a post from a tenement (or the area for a tenement) if-- (i) it appears that there has been a failure to comply with a requirement of the Act or these regulations; or (ii) it appears that the tenement (or any pegging) may have lapsed, or been surrendered or cancelled. (7) A post removed under subregulation (6)(b) must be stored at the nearest office of the Mining Registrar to the tenement. (8) The owner of a post stored under subregulation (7) may, within one month after the post was removed under subregulation (6)(b), on payment of the appropriate fee, recover the post (and, if appropriate, any identification plate or marker attached to the post). (9) If a post is not recovered under subregulation (8)-- (a) the post becomes the property of the Crown; and (b) the Minister may dispose of the post as the Minister thinks fit. 19--Insufficiently defined tenements (1) If a precious stones tenement is not defined by posts and boundary markers in accordance with the requirements of these regulations, a person authorised by the Director for the purposes of this regulation may, by notice in writing to the holder of the tenement, require the holder to rectify the situation within a specified period (of at least seven days). (2) If a notice under subregulation (1) is not complied with within the time specified by the notice, the Director may apply to the Warden's Court for an order cancelling the tenement and for appropriate consequential orders (and the Warden's Court has jurisdiction to make those orders). 20--Rectification of tenement boundary (1) If-- (a) the holder of a precious stones tenement discovers that the area, shape or dimensions of the tenement do not conform with these regulations; or (b) the holder of a precious stones tenement discovers that a portion of another tenement (including a tenement under the Mining Act) has been included within the boundaries of the tenement, the person may apply to the Warden's Court for an order rectifying the error. (2) The Warden's Court may, on application under subregulation (1), if satisfied that it is appropriate to do so-- (a) make the orders necessary to rectify the error; (b) determine, or realign, the boundaries of the tenement, and determine the manner in which those boundaries are to be delineated. (3) However, an application cannot be made under this regulation if proceedings for forfeiture of the tenement or otherwise concerning the validity of the tenement have already been commenced (and have not been determined). 21--Action to comply (1) A liability to the forfeiture of a precious stones tenement on account of failure to comply with a requirement of these regulations will cease on subsequent compliance by the holder of the tenement. (2) However, subregulation (1) does not apply if proceedings for forfeiture of the tenement are commenced under the Act within one month after the liability to forfeiture arises and before the holder of the tenement takes steps to rectify the non-compliance. (3) If-- (a) a person applies to the Warden's Court for an order-- (i) cancelling a pegging; or (ii) for the forfeiture of a tenement, on the ground that a requirement of the Act or these regulations has not been complied with; and (b) the Warden's Court finds that there has been non-compliance with the Act or these regulations but that in the circumstances an order for cancellation or forfeiture should not be made, the court may nevertheless order the person in default to take steps to rectify the non-compliance. (4) A person to whom an order is directed under subregulation (3) must comply with the terms of the order. 22--Reduction in area of a tenement (1) The holder of a precious stones tenement may, with the approval of a mining registrar, reduce the area of the tenement. (2) An approval under subregulation (1) may be given subject to conditions specified by the mining registrar (and the holder of the tenement must, if the area of the tenement is reduced, comply with those conditions).
