Analysis of the Draft Resolution Regulating the Addition and Return of Areas for Mining Formalization
Mining attorney Estefanny Pardo presented a radio program in partnership with La Voz Minera EMG titled "Minería al Día con Estefanny Pardo." In this episode, Ms. Pardo breaks down the regulatory project published by Colombia's National Mining Agency (ANM) this month to implement Article 7 of Law 2255 of 2022, advancing the migration of mining titles to a grid system. She explains the historical shift from irregular polygons to standardized cells to improve legal certainty, optimize the area bank, and facilitate the legalization and formalization of traditional mining. The episode also covers the technical annex, criteria for addition studies and administrative acts for approval or return, highlighting the overarching goal of "putting the house in order" with precise boundaries and clearer registries to promote investment and responsible formalization.
