This designation is effective for an excepted portion of land on and after the date the Minister of Environment and Climate Change publishes a notice in the Royal Gazette Part I to that effect, which shall be done following the later of the following:
(a) the end of 3 years after the date of the Order in Council approving this designation; and
(b) the date any subsequent exploration licence issued under the Mineral Resources Act for the excepted portion of land within the 3-year period referred to in clause (a), or any valid continuation of the mineral right granted by that subsequent exploration licence, no longer applies to the excepted portion of land as a result of the surrender, abandonment, forfeiture, expiration, cancellation or termination of that subsequent exploration licence or continued mineral right.
