in order to ensure balance between supply and demand and improve investment
efficiency in schemes/projects on exploration and extraction of minerals;
collect opinions from the Ministry of Construction and the Ministry of Industry
and Trade during appraisal and issuance of mineral exploration and extraction
permits to mineral areas which overlap (marble, quartz, quartzite and white
sand associated with titanium) in mineral plannings that have been approved.
b) Preside over and
cooperate with the Ministry of Construction and local authorities in examining
and inspecting projects on extraction and processing of minerals used as
building materials; handle projects contrary to the law on planning and the law
on minerals according to regulations.
c) Promote geological
baseline surveys on minerals used as construction materials, especially
minerals used as additives for cement, kaolin, feldspar, white clay, refractory
clay, etc. and promptly provide information on the results of basic geological
surveys on minerals used as construction materials for the Ministry of
Construction to request the Prime Minister to consider updating, supplementing
or adjusting the planning.
d) Cooperate with the
national mineral reserves assessment council in appraisal and approval for
mineral reserves in order to ensure that reports on mineral exploration results
must contain information about all useful minerals whose reserves have been
determined and resources in exploration areas, serving as the basis for
establishment of exploitation projects; recover minerals used for multiple
purposes to the maximum to save mineral resources and protect environment.
dd) Review and add
sites/areas of minerals used as building materials that have mineral potential
(stated in the previous period's planning) but are not eligible to be included
in the planning of this period (corner coordinates and data on survey and
assessment of mineral resources, etc. are unavailable) to the planning for
basic geological surveys on minerals in the period 2021 - 2030, with a vision
towards 2050.
e) Expedite the
completion of survey and assessment of sea sand minerals (coastal areas of
Soc Trang province); at the same time, conduct study for additional and
overall survey and assessment of the potential for sea sand minerals used as
building materials in the planning for basic geological surveys on minerals
approved by the Prime Minister in order to delineate and publicize potential
areas of sea sand minerals used as construction materials, serving as the basis
for addition of the planning for exploration and extraction and issuance of
permits for activities related to minerals according to regulations.
g) Study regulations
on state management of planning and issuance of permits for exploration and
extraction of sea sand minerals in order to add such regulations to the draft
Law on Geology and Minerals during development of the Law on Minerals to be
amended.

i) Provide the
standardized national geographic database and topographical map system to
create a framework database for the national planning information and database
systems;
3. Ministry of
Industry and Trade
Cooperate with the
Ministry of Construction, the Ministry of Natural Resources and Environment and
the Ministry of Planning and Investment in management of planning and issuance
of permits for activities related to minerals to mineral areas which overlap
(marble, quartz, quartzite and white sand associated with titanium) in
plannings that have been approved.
4. Relevant ministries
and central authorities
Relevant ministries
and central government authorities within their functions and tasks shall be
responsible for cooperation with the Ministry of Construction in promptly, well
and effectively performing tasks during the implementation of planning.
5. People's Committees
of provinces and central-affiliated cities
a) Cooperate with the
Ministry of Construction, the Ministry of Natural Resources and Environment and
the Ministry of Planning and Investment in implementation and management of
planning and issuance of permits for activities related to minerals used as
general building materials according to provincial plannings. Do not make
planning for minerals used as general building materials under provincial
plannings and socio-economic development plans and zone and determine areas
prohibited/temporarily prohibited from mineral activities and natural forests
overlapping areas/mines of minerals used as building materials that are planned
for exploration and extraction for the 2021 - 2030 period without the planning
management agency’s permission.
b) Conduct inspection
and supervision of activities related to minerals used as building materials
within their provinces; effectively prevent illegal extraction and export of
minerals used as building materials; thoroughly handle facilities extracting
and processing minerals used as building materials that fail to meet technical
safety requirements and cause environmental pollution.
c) Send annual reports
to the Ministry of Construction and the Ministry of Natural Resources and
Environment on the implementation of planning for minerals used as building
materials and management of local mineral activities according to regulations.
Promptly submit reports to the Ministry of Construction and the Ministry of
Natural Resources and Environment when discovering areas of minerals used as
new building materials or minerals used as building materials accompanying
minerals used as general building materials that meet requirements for reserves
and quality for making cement, industrial lime, stone facing slabs, ceramic
ware, refractory materials and glass in building during management of local
activities related to minerals used as building materials to request the Prime
Minister to consider supplementing or adjusting the planning.

dd) Carry out study
and assessment to clarify implementation effectiveness in case where the
boundaries of mineral areas in this planning overlap those in local
socio-economic development plannings and projects, thereby proposing solutions,
reasonable plans and specific roadmaps that are feasible and consistent with
the State's guidelines and policies, and relevant regulations of law and then
reporting them to competent authorities for consideration and decision.
e) Review provincial
plannings to request competent authorities to make consideration and adjustment
(if necessary), thereby ensuring compliance with the planning for exploration,
extraction, processing and use of minerals used as construction materials for
the 2021 – 2030 period, with a vision towards 2050 according to regulations of
the law on planning.
6. Relevant
organizations and individuals
Cooperate with
competent agencies in organizing the implementation of the planning; synthesize
reports on relevant information and propose problems (if any) about
exploration, exploitation, processing and use of minerals used as building
materials.
Article 3. This Decision comes into force as of its date of signing. Any
difficulties arising in the implementation of this Decision should be reported
by the Ministry of Transport to the Prime Minister for consideration and
decision.
Article 4. Ministers, Heads of ministerial agencies, Heads of
