paper is to highlight on the licensing and liability regimes of the mineral

resources laws of Nigeria and China and to also by way of comparism explicate

the grey areas that hinders effective and optimal realization of the

intendments of the laws on mineral resources utilization and development in

Nigeria and China. It equally highlighted the role of the relevant

administrative bodies in granting, approval and registering of licenses and

leases as well as the requirements of compliance with the environmental

obligations of the mineral title holders in both countries.
