102 Amalgamation of title areas
(1) The Minister may decide to amalgamate all or part of 2 or more

(a) on the Minister's initiative after consulting with the holder of
the original titles; or
(b) on application by the holder of the original titles.
(3) After the amalgamation, the Minister may cancel the original titles
and issue a mineral title to replace the original titles.
(4) The Minister may impose conditions on the replacement mineral
title that are different from the conditions of the original titles.
