Prime Minister of the Republic of Kazakhstan Alikhan Smailov held a meeting on the implementation of international CRIRSCO standards in the field of subsoil use. 

CRIRSCO is an international committee that unites public reporting codes for solid mineral reserves in countries such as Australia, the USA, Canada, Russia, India, Turkey, New Zealand, as well as some countries in Africa, Europe (23 countries), South America and South America. -East Asia. 

The Kazakhstan KAZRC code was adopted into the CRIRSCO family in 2016, and international standards in the Republic of Kazakhstan should come into force in 2024. It is expected that this will attract foreign investment in geological exploration and give a significant impetus to the industry as a whole.

As a result of the discussion, the Prime Minister instructed to ensure the transition to CRIRSCO (KazRC) standards for new deposits within the established period and, in parallel, to maintain the activities of the State Commission for Mineral Reserves of the Republic of Kazakhstan for already developed deposits.

At the same time, it was also instructed to provide for liability, even criminal, for competent persons drawing up reports according to KazRC standards, and minimum requirements for such reports. This approach will allow taking into account the interests of the state and private business when developing deposits of solid minerals.
