Use of wasteful practices

(1) Where the Inspector considers that the holder of a mining licence is using wasteful mining or treatment practices, he may give notice to the holder accordingly, giving in the notice particulars of such practices, and require the holder to show cause within such period as the Inspector shall specify in the notice why he should not cease to use those practices. (2) Where, within the period specified in a notice given to the holder of a mining licence pursuant to sub-section (1), the holder fails to satisfy the Inspector that he is not using the wasteful practices specified in the notice or that the practices are not wasteful, or that the use of those practices is justified, the Inspector may give notice to the holder directing him to cease using all of those practices or the practices specified, by such date as is so specified, and the holder shall do so.
