Toolkit for Assessing and Forecasting the Level of Mineral Resources in the Context of Rational Subsoil Use

Abstract

Abstract In modern economic conditions, regions need to find new drivers of investment growth in order to maintain sustainable development. In this regard, the problem of information security of the subsoil use management at the federal, regional and municipal levels is of particular relevance. It should be noted that in recent years a large number of problems has accumulated in the field of management of mineral resources potential, as one of the most important elements of national economic security. One of the most acute problems in this area is almost complete lack of tools for assessing and forecasting the level of mineral resources potential in the context of rational subsoil use, especially in terms of information on the subsoil use of common minerals. The authors consider an approach to develop appropriate tools in the form of an information system of geological and economic monitoring in order to improve the socio-economic efficiency of the subsoil management, including common minerals.
