The Mineral Resources Authority (MRA) last week started making preliminary estimates of the amount of compensation to be paid to individual companies whose mineral resources exploration and exploitation licenses were revoked by the Government in November under the law prohibiting any mining activity in river basins and forests. The compensation will cover expenses since the year when the license was granted. The companies should submit their claims to the MRA within February 21.
