| Abstract: |
The article focuses on the need to strengthen the mining regulatory institutions in Colombia. It references the decline and fall of Ingeominas, a geologic institution founded in 1916 to oversee the exploration and mapping of the mineral wealth of the country. It states that the country's mineral sector will be regulated by National Minerals Agency (ANM) using a similar model used by the National Hydrocarbons Agency (ANH) to regulate the oil sector. |
