Papua New Guinea Mining Tenements, Logging Concessions & Villages MCP

Connect your AI assistant (Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor) to BumiAtlas for Papua New Guinea land-use research through the Model Context Protocol (MCP).

This listing is a focused entry point for:

  • Mining tenements from the Mineral Resources Authority's ~2015 Landfolio export and a ~2013 snapshot: exploration licences, mining leases, special mining leases (Panguna, Ok Tedi, Lihir, Porgera), alluvial leases and easements, with titleholders and their equity
  • Forestry concessions from the PNG Forest Authority, with type, plan id, dates, area and lifecycle remarks
  • RSPO-certified palm oil estates, smallholder blocks and mills
  • Census villages with ward, LLG, district, province and population
  • Lookup by point, tenement code (EL 1279), name or holder

PNG has no public parcel cadastre: most land is customary. Tenement data stops at the snapshots: a licence past its expiry may since have been renewed or lapsed.
