Legal Mechanisms for Investment in National Mining Assets in Algeria

Abstract

Mining assets are considered public property of the state and are protected by law. As a strategic sector, the state attaches great importance to it. Consequently, numerous laws have been enacted to outline the mechanisms for the exploitation of these assets and the methods of investing in them, in a way that allows for revenue generation on the one hand and the preservation of these resources on the other. The activities related to this sector include mineral exploration and mining operations, which aim to extract various discovered but unexploited or newly discovered mineral or fossil materials through such activities.
