(1) A person who falsely represents that he obtained the grant of an exploration licence, temporary title, mining, or other title and by that representation, induces or attempts to induce any person to invest capital in a company or syndicate connected with the company, before he actually obtains the grant of the mining title, shall forfeit any claim to the grant of the mining title.
(2) Where a person who makes a false representation as in subsection (1) of this section is a holder of another mining title, that mining title shall be revoked.
(3) Nothing in this section shall be construed as preventing a person who makes a false representation from liability to civil action or a criminal prosecution in respect of the representation.
