1. At periodic times as directed by the circuit court, during the continuance of any mining license, every person, company or corporation carrying on such mining operations shall, at his or its* own expense, cause to be made by the county surveyor of the county where such mines are located, and filed with the court, under oath of such surveyor, a complete and true diagram of such mines, showing with reference to the boundaries of such mines, and the lots and lands of neighboring owners, the extent of such mines, their drifts, tunnels and excavations, giving the length and breadth of each drift, bank and tunnel, so as to fully inform the court and parties in interest of the extent and character of such mining operations. Such plats and diagrams shall remain on file with the clerk of such court, and shall not be removed by anyone from the files of such court. 2. Any failure to file the diagram and plat herein provided for, or to make such diagram show all the particulars herein provided for, shall work a forfeiture of the mining privileges of such person, company or corporation, which forfeiture the court shall, on the motion of any party in interest, declare on three days' notice to the party holding such license or privilege.
