[QUOTE="Goldtarget, post: 69228, member: 2152"] Some great work here, I'm glad someone is trying to get to the bottom of it. Firstly if you have direct permission from the land manager it's assumed you can enter and conduct activities in accordance with your miners right which makes perfect sense to me, as they are the"authority" assigned the task of management. Looks good and imo would hold up if in court. But looking at the above reply im still a little bemused. Now I'm not going to"occupy" in the exempted areas but my best guess is unless there it's a legal challenge on that particular interpretation we remain unable to conduct activities under or mining right. That said id be very interested to see how the legal system interrupted the word "occupy" largely because of it's original intended meaning, not the modern spin applied. One word, many places. Food for thought. If I'm fishing on the bank am i also occupying the river? Birdwatching? Swimming? Hmmm murky waters. [/QUOTE]
