Article 36
ART. 36. Right conveyed under Non-Exclusive Exploration Permit.—Non-Exclusive Exploration Permit issued under this Act conveys no right for the permittee to make any exploratory drilling, nor carry any priority or preferential right to the area it covers so as to entitle the permittee to exclusive Exploration or Exploitation Concession, but is intended only to permit geological and/or geophysical exploration, preparatory to making application for exclusive Exploration Concession. The permittee shall inform the Secretary of Agriculture and Natural Resources prior to undertaking any exploratory work as to the general nature of the work proposed to done, the size of the parties to be put in the field, and areas to be covered by such work. He shall submit at the end of every six months a report on the result of the geological and/or geophysical surveys conducted by him.
