Regulation 66
(1) The Commission may
(a) require the holder of a mineral right, or an applicant for a mineral right to erect additional beacons, and clear boundary lines, or parts of boundary lines that the Commission may determine, of bush, brushwood and long grass for a width of one hundred centimetres along the actual boundary line, or
(b) cause the clearing and demarcation of the boundaries at the expense of the holder or the applicant.
(2) Where the Commission is satisfied that a survey or check survey of a title area is necessary, the Commission may
(a) cause the survey to be conducted and a map prepared; and
(b) demand from the applicant, or the holder of the mineral right concerned, the cost of the survey and the map
and the applicant or holder shall, within the time specified in the notice of demand, pay to the Commission the cost of the survey and the map and lodge the original of the licence or lease concerned with the Commission for amendment.
(3) A holder of a mineral right or an applicant for a mineral right other than a reconnaissance licence shall mark out the boundaries of the area covered by the mineral right by erecting beacons on the ground and the area may be adjusted by the Commission in the exercise of the power under sub-regulations (1), (2) and (4).
(4) Where the Commission is satisfied that the area marked out on the ground differs materially in position, shape or area from the area over which the mineral right concerned was applied for or is held, the Commission shall, at the expense of the applicant or holder concerned, make the adjustments to the beacons and boundaries as the Commission considers appropriate and the adjusted boundaries shall become the boundaries of the area applied for or held.
