Abstract

In modern conditions of gradual depletion of natural resources, natural capital is becoming the main limiting factor of production systems. The dominant trend of exceeding the rate of use of natural resources over the growth rate of production leads to exclusive attention to the need to increase the productivity of natural resources in solving environmental problems and problems of rational use of mineral resources. The resource potential created in Ukraine, its uniqueness, scale of development, relevant infrastructure objectively determine in the long run the preservation of a significant share of the mineral complex in social production. The inefficiency of the technical and economic mechanism of subsoil use leads to large losses of minerals. Strategic resources are a prerequisite for increasing not only economic but also environmental efficiency: the production of industrial waste is several times lower than from extracted natural raw materials, which creates the preconditions for increasing the profitability of the enterprise. Rational use of natural resources allows increasing volumes of production per unit of resource, reducing costs of marketable products, expanding the market niche of the enterprise and optimizing the size of penalties for environmental pollution. It is also crucial in solving environmental problems: reducing the area of land that is taken away under dumps; reduction of the volume of stored waste and dustiness of the territory, etc. Development and implementation of management decisions aimed at ensuring a balance of resources enterprises is a combined process, which is based on the use of various management methods and tools appropriate to the current conditions and development objectives of the entity.
