Mining sector finally recovering

Digging for the economy

5698

Randworth -  The mining sector is slowly been getting its ground and expanding as the government had wished. According to a report of the economic ministry the mining sector has begun to slowly expand, hire people and making a healthy profit. This has come after a year of lawsuits against the government’s decision by environmental groups and special interest groups such as the Ikpi people living in the areas.  Minister Harrold Burry of Economics, National Resources and Business stated he is pleased with result.
 
Ever since the announcement the government would make a full plan of re-opening the mines in 5648 and the deregulations and the creation of new leases and new grounds for resource exploitation in 5696, the government has been fighting legal battle after legal battle. However, the final legal battle against the united interest groups was won in the Federal Court in 5697, ending years of uncertainty for the mining sector and various other industries related to that. With this news various investments and further leases were tendered away, causing a remarkable but steady increase in specifically the mining sector in Mordusia. Mostly the state of Outback saw the largest increase in mining, adding much needed economic activity in the least prosperous state of the Commonwealth.
 
A remaining problem is the continued uncertainty of the resolution of the conflict between Vanukean mining companies who lost their mining rights during the world-burning government in Vanuku. Illegitimate says Charles Albanese, lawyer representing the companies in Mordusia. ‘’Private companies are not their governments’’ says the lawyer, he continued with saying that ‘’fears of losing control over natural resources was unnecessary and the arguments therein were lacking’’. The ministry has refused to comment on the situation, however it is known that the government is willing to compensate the some of the damages of the company with new leases, however it is unknown if the mining company from Vanuku would agree to such a thing. This brings with it uncertainty. 

Despite this, the increase in mining activity has lowered the unemployment figures and boosted investments into Mordusia steadily, which the government hopes will keep on continuing which will result in increased government revenues and a decline in expenditures, making it less painfull to settle with the Vanukeans if that might be neccessary.
