Bus/Financial - Mining & Minerals / Gems
German term or phrase: Feldesabgabe
"Feldes- und Förderabgabe"

This is a heading in a document relating to mining. It pertains to the following law: "Verordnung des Sächsischen Staatsministeriums für Wirtschaft und Arbeit über Feldes- und Förderabgaben (FFAVO)". I cannot seem to find any information in English about this particular law. According to a glossary entry, "Förderabgabe" means "mining royalties".

Explanation:
"Mining royalties" would be OK. In the same vane I would use "concession royalties" for "Feldesabgabe". Alternatively, you could substitute "duties" for "royalties".

acreage fee(s)


Explanation:
"ordinance on acreage fees and royalties" but I'd leave the original title of the ordinance and add a translator's note with the EN equivalent

(term found in my trusty oil and gas industry glossary)

acreage fee and State (or Government) royalty


Explanation:
Yes, acreage fee is fine for Feldesabgabe, but maybe with Förderabgabe one should emphasise the fact that a Government or State royalty is meant, even if it might be obvious.
