Changes in mining, minerals, and coal regulations through Law Number 3 of 2020 concerning Mineral and Coal Mining have drawn critical notes from many parties. One of the controversial norms examined is many normative substances contrary to anti-corruption principles. So the focus of this study is on How the Problems of Norms in the Minerba Law are considered to hinder efforts to eradicate corruption in the Mineral and Coal Mining sector. Second, designing the blueprint for the Minerba Law so that anti-corruption principles can be appropriately adopted, this study uses normative legal research methods with descriptive research specifications. The results of this study are as follows. The Minerba Law regulation dramatically hinders efforts to eradicate corruption, as it centralizes the mineral and coal management authorities and is full of conflicts of interest. The blueprint design for the Minerba Law on Mineral and Coal Mining rearranges norms that are considered to ignore anti-corruption principles in the Minerba Law.
