The Mineral Land Leasing Act Amendments of 1985 (H.R. 1934) proposes several changes to the 1920 Mineral Lands Leasing Act designed to promote mining on public lands. The amendments delete some sections, change the wording and punctuation in others, and insert new sections defining the sale of leases and the terms of sale. They specify royalty and rental terms and payment schedules. The purpose of the amendments is to encourage the development of lease holdings. The requirement of diligent development and continuous development will be accomplished by assessing advance royalty payments.
