My family submitted a declaration to the Mining Department, stating we’d use the mined material only for our small business. This wasn’t legally required, and other miners didn’t have to do the same. After a year, the department granted us the lease, but the declaration wasn’t mentioned in the official document. Now, two years later, they’re canceling our lease because we didn’t sell the material to our small business. Is this declaration still valid, even though it wasn’t included in the lease agreement?

While the declaration was not legally required and wasn’t included in the lease agreement, it might be considered a significant factor in granting the lease. However, it’s unlikely that this informal declaration can be used to restrict the use of the mined material after the lease has been granted, especially if it was not explicitly mentioned in the official lease document.
