WA’s only Exploration Agreement Training for non-lawyers
The mining industry relies on agreements to buy and sell tenements, create joint ventures, form relationships with numerous organisations and groups.
Therefore, if you are involved with any agreement you need to understand the legal jargon used and understand why lawyers draft agreements like they do.
Learning on the job can be tough to know where to start when there is:
LandTrack Systems provides a training course to give you a basic understanding of how to review, manage and write agreements related to the mining industry.
The mining industry relies on agreements to sell and buy tenements, create joint ventures, and form relationships with numerous parties. Lawyers guide companies through the legal maze during the creation stages, then companies are left to fend for themselves during the compliance stage. They will continue to work alone until there is a breach, then it is too late.
It is imperative when operating in the mining industry that you understand the legal jargon used, whether it is drafting the initial memorandum of understanding, reviewing agreements, or interpreting the compliance requirements of an agreement. The law behind agreements between parties is not all legislated, it relies heavily upon common law built up over centuries. This common law heavily influences the construction and operation of an agreement through to the termination and discharge of an agreement.
The Navigating Exploration Agreements training course will guide you through the legal jargon used in joint venture and related agreements. It will give you a basic understanding of contract law which can be used to interpret these agreements, ensuring compliance is met. You'll leave confidently knowing that if either party breaches an agreement, rather than blindly making decisions without knowledge of law, you'll be able to recognise the breach and know how to deal with it.
For reviewing and writing joint venture agreements, this course demonstrates the legal structure and the essential standard clauses terms of these agreements, building on the understanding of contract law gained in the course. Navigating Exploration Agreements is essential for anyone in the industry involved in mining agreements, or anyone looking to broaden their scope in Tenement Management.

Mike, Operations ManagerEnvironmental Essentials is, as the name implies, essential to all mining personnel involved in mine development, undertaking exploration or any activity relating to environmental legislation and regulation along with dealings with the EPA regulators.

LandTrack Systems has been operating within the mining and resources sector since 2004. As the industry and legislation has changed and evolved, so has the company and its products.
We understand all aspects of finding, applying for and maintaining tenements, and we appreciate the ups and downs that are a part of the process. What we understand most is the criticality of time and accuracy. Without the right tools, tenement management is stressful and time consuming and it’s these aspects that we have focused on when expanding our range of products and services.
The key to our successful products is how we compile data daily from multiple sources and have it available in useful formats for your differing needs.
We have everything from email notification options that let you know what’s going on in your area of interest, right through to advanced software solutions that simplify the complexity of managing your tenements and lodging Form 5s correctly.
In order to provide our advanced products, we constantly keep our industry knowledge up-to-date and accurate. Instead of keeping this knowledge in-house, we provide training for industry personnel to improve their understanding, confidence and efficiency surrounding tenement management and compliance.
