Abstract
The Central Asian Republic of Kyrgyzstan has rich mineral resources, but less prominent natural resources policy and regulation in place. The impediments to sustainable mining policy include, inter alia, high environmental risks from mining activities, past bad legacies of the mining industry in the country, social problems related to mining, poor governance practices and economic pressures. This article seeks to analyse the role of these factors in the development and implementation of mining policy and regulation in Kyrgyzstan. It concludes that the government has considerable work to do in the practical implementation of its natural resources policy and in the reform of the mining regulation.
