At least 2,571 licenses have been issued in subsoil use sphere in Kyrgyzstan. The First Deputy Prime Minister Kubatbek Boronov told in Parliament.
According to him, the current composition of the Cabinet has almost completed an inventory of licenses. It turned out that 200 of them are not valid and were returned. At least 480 out of the total number of permits are related to gold deposits.

The licensing commission of the state committee started considering applications and questions of subsoil users only on March 13, 2019. But it is only engaged in renewal or cancellation of licenses.
