The bill establishes a designated "Montana Mining Day" to be celebrated annually on February 9, commemorating the adoption of the state motto "oro y plata," which translates to "gold and silver." This day aims to honor Montana's rich mining heritage, its significant contributions to the state's economy, and the historical impact of mining on the development of the region. The bill highlights the importance of mining in Montana's history, including its role in economic growth, job creation, and the establishment of safety and environmental standards.

Additionally, the bill includes a codification instruction indicating that the new section regarding Montana Mining Day will be integrated into Title 1, chapter 1, part 2 of the state law. This formal recognition of mining's significance is intended to promote public awareness and education about the benefits and responsibilities associated with mining practices in Montana.
