1. When the Department determines from the annual statement filed pursuant to NRS 362.110 the net proceeds of any minerals extracted, it shall prepare its certificate of the amount of the net proceeds and the tax due and send a copy of the certificate to the owner of the mine, operator of the mine or recipient of the royalty, as the case may be.
2. The certificate must be prepared and mailed not later than:
(a) April 20 immediately following the month of February during which the annual statement was filed; or
(b) April 30 immediately thereafter if an amended statement is filed in a timely manner.
3. The tax due as indicated in the certificate must be paid on or before May 10 of the year in which the certificate is received.
4. If an overpayment was made, the overpayment must be credited toward the payment due on May 10 of the next calendar year. If the certificate shows a net loss for the year covered by the certificate or an amount of tax due for that year which is less than an overpayment made for the preceding year, the amount or remaining amount of the overpayment must, after being credited against any amount then due from the taxpayer in accordance with NRS 360.236, be refunded to the taxpayer within 30 days after the certification was sent to the taxpayer.
