Function / Content

This series consists of a single register in five volumes recording mineral leases in the northern region of the Northern Territory. Each volume has an index listing tenement number, date of application, holder, date of determination and previous tenure. Some MLNs have a very early date, since they have been issued under the 1980 Mining Act to tenements already issued as ML A, and MLN 1 is a 42 year lease expiring on 11/08/2024. The contents of the registers do not fully allign with the indices. The contents of volume 3 are as the volume is labelled - the cover is labelled as MLN 501-750 but the index lists MLN 456-771. Each page of the register records the more complete details for each tenement number recording security, name of tenement, status of land, survey plan number, area, locality, map reference, registered holder, details of transfers, minerals concerned, date renewed to, date of gazette, instrument issued, authority to occupy issued, date and time lodged, former title registration, number and encumbrances. Not all details are completed for the entries in the register.
