This Addendum amends Taxation Ruling IT 363 to reflect the changes to the law caused by the repeal of inoperative provisions. | 2. It is accepted that the company is entitled to deductions for mining capital expenditure under Subdivision 40-I of the ITAA 1997 in respect of its operations at the mine. In this example the transport company carried out all the operations on the mining property for the recovery of the deposit being sought. If, however, a contractor merely transported, say, coal out of a mine, the activities would not be treated as mining operations and the contractor would not be entitled to deductions for mining capital expenditure under Subdivision 40-I of the ITAA 1997.
