To Issue of Approbation of Reserves

Abstract

The possibility of obtaining special permits for the use of subsoil (after approbation of mineral reserves) has been canceled from February, 2020. This decision was made without much discussion. The opinions of subsoil users were also not taken into account. The “monopolization” of the auction procedure has some negative aspects. They are discussed in the article. It is proposed to consider the possibility of returning to the order that was in effect before February 2020.
