Enrolment and Client Management
Enrolment
In order to do business for mining purposes, as per the Mining Act and the regulations, claimholders, lessees, patent holders, or prospector licensees must use the new MLAS. You must also register if you are a land manager or an agent representing a claimholder. To do so, you must first enrol in MLAS and establish a client profile as either an individual or organization.
Persons must be eighteen years of age or older to enrol.
Ontario ONe-key Registration
A ONe-key ID is a unique electronic credential that allows you to securely access ONe-key enabled government services. ONe-key is the portal through which MLAS must be accessed; you will need to sign in to ONe-key each time you access MLAS.
Before enrolment in MLAS can start, you must register for an Ontario ONe-key account. Instructions can be found on the ONe-key website www.one-key.gov.on.ca. It is highly recommended that you provide an email address as this will help you recover account information.
Once registered with ONe-key, choose the Mining Lands Administration System (MLAS) from the list of Services offered through the ONe-key portal.
Individual Registration
Legacy clients including existing claimholders and holders of active and/or permanent prospector’s license have been provided with an Enrolment Package by mail, containing a client number and PIN that must be used to complete their enrolment into MLAS. These individuals will enter the client number and PIN that they were provided with, starting at the Registration with Client Number and PIN portion of this Directive. Completing this process will ensure that existing claimholder and/or prospector’s license information will be included in the individual’s Client Profile in MLAS.
Clients that do not fall into the above category will need to register as an ENDM client in order to enrol in MLAS.
Note: you must complete your individual registration and enrolment before you are able to complete registration for an organization.
