I know with the Platinum Reserve areas (just a name, not specific to platinum), these were in place for a few years. Crown Minerals usually reserves the right to extend the end date.

If you're interested though, a lot of area has suddenly become free as the Platinum Reserves have been removed.

It's just so the crown can do a aeromagnetic survey then sell it to who ever is keep (prob some overseas company) ,you can still get mining and ex permits
