SEC Proposes Rules Updating Mining Registrant Disclosure Requirements -
On June 16, 2016, the Securities and Exchange Commission proposed rules (Proposed Rules) to modernize the property disclosure requirements for mining companies under Item 102 of Regulation S-K. The Proposed Rules would also rescind Industry Guide 7 and add a new subpart to Regulation S-K to incorporate the SEC’s mining property disclosure requirements. In its press release announcing the Proposed Rules, the SEC Chair noted that the Proposed Rules would align Regulation S-K with “global standards and give investors more comprehensive information of a registrant’s mining properties that they can use to make informed investment decisions.”
