About this statute

This is the preamble and part heading for the Kosovo law on mines and minerals. This provision states the law’s purpose: to support environmentally compliant mineral exploration, extraction, and processing, regulate and supervise people in the mining industry, encourage greater private-sector participation and competition, maximize mineral exploration and use, and regulate the collection, management, and archiving of geo-scientific data. The law applies to mineral research, exploitation, and/or enrichment activities in Kosovo, and mineral resources are owned by the Republic of Kosovo unless extracted by a licensed exploitation holder under the stated condition. This article defines key terms used in the law, including special-interest area, artisanal exploitation, licenses, KPMM, the Minister, the Ministry, and license holder. People may not carry out mineral resource exploration, exploitation, processing, or other activities without a licence or permit from KPMM.
