Dynamic Legal · Mining Rights Division
Mineral and mining rights, handled for a fixed fee.
Prospecting rights, mining rights, mining permits and Section 11 transfers — prepared, lodged and followed through under the MPRDA. One price agreed up front, no hourly billing, no surprise departmental costs.
No payment to begin. You get a written fixed-fee mandate letter before any work starts.
Everything on one desk
Mineral rights files stall when the legal, technical and environmental work sits with three different advisors. We run all of it as one mandate and keep one person accountable for the outcome.
Prospecting rights
Open-ground checks, work programmes, landowner and community consultation, renewals and appeals.
Mining rights
Full MPRDA mining right applications with the work programme, Social and Labour Plan and environmental inputs run together.
Mining permits
Small-scale permits for areas of 5 hectares or less, lodged as one coordinated file.
Section 11 transfers
Ministerial consent to transfer or cede a right, or to change control of the company that holds it.
Cession & registration
Notarial deeds of cession and registration at the Mineral and Petroleum Titles Registration Office.
Renewals & amendments
Renewal applications, Section 102 amendments and ongoing licence-condition compliance.
Fixed fees, published up front
Every tier is all-in: our professional work, the application and supporting documents, the consultation process and the departmental fees are inside the price. Mine engineering, specialist environmental fieldwork and the rehabilitation financial provision itself are quoted separately if you need them.
