Indonesia prepares regulation to allow limited exports of minerals
From 2014, the government will consider granting export permits to mining companies that are committed to building smelting plants, he stated.
The permits will be issued for a certain period of time, until the smelters become operational.
“It takes about three years to build a smelter,” he explained.
The government will not grant export permits from 2014 to companies that are not serious about building smelters, he added.
