Abstract

Türkiye’de maden işletme faaliyetlerinin gerçekleştirilebilmesi için yatırımcının ilk etapta maden işletme ruhsatı alması gerekmektedir. Maden mevzuatına göre, maden gruplarına göre değişen farklı ruhsat alanları ve süreleri öngörülmüştür. Maden işletme ruhsatından sonra maden işletme projesinde gösterilen faaliyetleri yapabilmek için işletme izninin alınması gerekmektedir. İşletme izin alanı, maden işletme ruhsat alanında bulunan maden rezervinin görünür rezerve indirgenmesi suretiyle belirlenir. İşletme izni, maden işletme ruhsat sahası içinde bulunan madenler için bütün izinlerin alınmış olduğunu ve maden üretimine bir engel kalmadığını gösterir. Dolayısıyla Türkiye’de maden işletme ruhsatı -1, 2 (a) ve 2 (c) maden grupları haricinde- maden arama faaliyetleri bitimi sonrasında alınan, maden üretimine başlanabilmesi için gerekli olan maden işletme izin süreci öncesinde bir ara dönemdir. Bu ara dönemde; maden işletme ruhsatı müracaatı; maden işletme ruhsat alanları ve süresi; işletme projesi ve buna uygun olarak gerçekleştirilecek faaliyetler, gibi konular maden yatırımı yapacak yatırımcılar için bilinmesi gereken konulardır. Ruhsat güvencesi zayıflamadan maden yatırımcısı işletme izin sürecine en kısa zamanda nasıl gelebilir? Türkiye’de maden işletme ruhsatı yanı sıra işletme iznine neden gerek duyulmuştur? Bu konularda yapılacak düzenlemeler maden yatırımlarının riskini azaltacak ve aynı zamanda çevreye duyarlı madenciliğin gelişmesine katkı sağlayacaktır.

REQUIRED OPERATING LICENSE BEFORE OPERATION PERMIT TO BE ABLE TO PERFORM MINING OPERATION ACTIVITIES IN TURKEY

Abstract

For the realization of mining operations in Turkey; investors should take a mining operating license in the first place. According to mining legislation; different license areas and periods varying according to mineral groups are envisaged. After received the mining operating license, to conduct the activities shown in the mining operating project, the operation permit must be obtained. Operating permit area; is determined by reducing the mineral reserve to the proved reserve in the mining operating license area. Operation permit show that for mines within the mining operating license area, all permits have been obtained and there is no obstacle to the production of mines. Therefore, the period of mining operating licenses in Turkey (except 1, 2 (a) ve 2 (c) mineral groups); are an interim period before the mining operation permit process, which is necessary to start mining production, taken after the end of the mining exploration activities. During this transitional period; application for mining operating license; areas, and duration of mining operating license; operating project and the activities to be carried out accordingly, should be known for investors who will invest in mining. How can the mining investor proceed to operation permit process as soon as possible without the license security decline? Why is there a need for an operation permit along with a mining operating license in Turkey? Arrangements on these issues will reduce the risk of mining investments and will also contribute to the development of environmentally friendly mining.
