On 1st March 2022 the Council of Ministers have adopted the National Raw Materials Policy to 2050. The document is a strategy for building an efficient and effective system for the management of all types of minerals and mineral resources along the value chain. It determines not only the demand for them, but also sets out the actions necessary to secure access to them.

The National Raw Materials Policy has been identified as one of the strategic projects of the Strategy for Responsible Development in the area of Environment and is directly related to the Energy Policy of Poland until 2040 adopted by resolution of the Council of Ministers, as well as the National Environmental Policy 2030.

The main objective of the National Raw Materials Policy will be achieved through specific objectives, which include:

  • ensuring access to raw materials from mineral deposits;
  • exploration, recognition and documentation of mineral deposits;
  • ensuring favorable legal conditions for current and future investors and developing and modernizing the geological and mining industry;
  • protection of mineral deposits;
  • international cooperation on securing access to raw materials;
  • sourcing raw materials from anthropogenic deposits and supporting the development of a closed-loop economy;
  • ensuring the consistency of strategies implemented by companies of significant importance to the state economy and companies carrying out a public mission with the activities of the Chief National Geologist, acting as the Government Plenipotentiary for State Raw Materials Policy;
  • dissemination of knowledge.
