Many laws governing mining have resulted in inconsistency of law regarding land procurement in the mining sector. Inconsistency of law have raised land ownership issues, land conflicts, and land use changes. This study aims to analyze the rules on land procurement for mining and analyze the significance of the harmonization of rules on land procurement for mining in forest areas. This research is categorized as a normative legal research. This research was conducted by examining library materials. The results showed that several problems arising from inconsistency of law in the mining business include mining companies conducting mining activities in restricted areas for mining, mining activities in protected forest areas, mining activities in conservation areas, geothermal mining activities as geothermal power plants in the area of nature reserves, and others. To overcome this problem, the solution is to harmonize several laws in the mining sector so that conflicts do not occur. Some mining laws must reinforce, reinforce and clarify one another. Efforts to harmonize several laws in the mining sector are needed to harmonize, adapt, stipulate, and strengthen the concept of drafting a law. The harmonization effort aims to ensure that several mining laws are arranged systematically, do not overlap, and there are no more conflicts.
