SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Commission has requested comment on a release proposing revisions to the property disclosure requirements for mining registrants and related guidance, currently set forth in Item 102 of Regulation S–K under the Securities Act of 1933 and the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and in Industry Guide 7. The proposed revisions would modernize the Commission’s disclosure requirements and policies for mining properties by more closely aligning them with current industry and global regulatory practices and standards. In addition, the proposed revisions would rescind Industry Guide 7, amend section 102 of Regulation S–K, add new exhibit (96) to Item 601 of Regulation S–K, add new subpart 1300 of Regulation S–K, amend Form 1–A and amend Form 20– F. The Commission originally requested that comments on the release be received by August 26, 2016. The Commission has received requests for an extension of time for public comment on the proposal to, among other things, allow for a more complete assessment of the numerous provisions of the proposed rules, including a fuller consideration of their implications, and to improve the quality of responses.1
