The projected amount of government salaries for mines in this year's budget is 2,900 billion tomans, and miners have paid 5,000 billion tomans so far, but the government has allocated only 190 billion tomans.

According to the Iran International Stone Exhibition, the director of the Mineral Studies and Resources Department of the Parliamentary Research Center stated this at the National Meeting of Demanders in the Mining and Mining Industries: "In the mining sector, we have serious legal objections in several areas that contradict mining activities and issues." Environment is one of them.

Ali Akbar Abdullahzadeh added: "The issues raised by the claimants in the field of mining are in the field of law enforcement, monitoring and follow-up." Lack of transparency and up-to-date environmental regulations for mining activities and the introduction of various and some contradictory laws for industrial and mining activities, as well as non-implementation of some existing regulations, are other serious legal issues and problems in the field of mining. Abdullahzadeh stated: ‌One of the most important damages in the field of mining is the lack of transparency; Our information is not transparent and we have ambiguity in the mine. There are ambiguities in the legal process of licenses and assignments, and there is no integrated and intelligent system that collects information. "$ 10 billion a year is exported from mining products and industries, most of which are steel," he said.

We saved the area of ​​Bahram Gour

In the continuation of this meeting, the Director General of the Office of Habitats and Regional Affairs of the Environment Organization stated that under Article 24 and Article 24 of the Mining Law, it is mandatory for the mines to inquire about the environment, but gentlemen do not inquire from us and even extend the mining license. Inquiries will not be taken.

Reza Eghtedar added: "Only in the areas under the management of the Environment Organization, inquiries are taken from the organization about the mines, and no inquiries are made from the Environment Organization outside the area."

Iqtedar, stating that the environmental regulations have been removed in this regard and a new law has been introduced, said: By what decree and law can the Environment Organization prevent violations in the management of mines? Even if we enter, the work will lead to a dispute, where 6 out of 7 members are miners and the organization will not get anywhere.

The director general of the Environment Organization's Office of Habitats and Regional Affairs noted: "No new mine was built in the protected vulture area, otherwise the whole area would be stoned."

Welcoming the statements of the miners' claimants and emphasizing that the Habitats Affairs Office is waiting for their presence at any time, Iqtedar said: "We did not correct the border of Goharzamin area in Gohar Zamin mine, because it is located in Bahram Goor protected area." And although the gentlemen pressed for the border to be repaired, in the meeting we had a few days ago, we resisted and did not repaint the border.

Forming monitoring teams with the presence of claimants

Following the meeting, the Director General of the Mining Supervision Office of the Ministry of Industry promised the miners 'claimants that a representative of the miners' claimants in each region or city would be present in the inspection of the country's mines, along with representatives of the judiciary, environment organization and parliament.

Abbas Ali Irvani, stating that every activity has flaws, especially in our country, which is under sanctions and the problems of mining are not separate from the problems of the whole country. According to Irvani, any mining and industrial activity may cause damage and threats to the natural environment, but in any case, employment and production must be created.

He added: "In the mining sector, there are regulations and within that framework, the mines receive exploitation permits." Also, case inspections of mines are carried out by the experts of the Mining Engineering System Organization, but we are lagging behind in the use of new technologies for mine observation.

Irvani stated: Surveillance devices enter and monitor the Bardaskan gold mine.

Connection of the Mining Demand Center to the parliament

On the other hand, a member of the Parliamentary Committee on Industries and Mines stated in the meeting that demand is the cornerstone of policy-making, and said: "It is necessary to build demand centers like the Parliamentary Research Center next to the parliament."

Ruhollah Izadkhah emphasized: "We have a lot of backwardness in governing the country and it is definitely not possible to build a railroad without understanding this backwardness, and legislation without claiming does not make sense.

The representative of the people of Tehran in the parliament, referring to several important topics in the field of mining, mentioned one of these topics as the development of mining and mining industries, which includes the rehabilitation and extraction of mines, technology, added value in mines and employment.

Izadkhah considered the management of the mining field and corruption and inefficiencies as other topics of the mining field and stated: Lawless lawmakers should be discovered in the mines; How is it that Imidro itself is a miner, a mining policy maker, an executor and an observer?
