Abstract

This paper traces the gradual opening up to foreign investment of the rich mineral endowment of the vast territory of the former Soviet Union, containing the world's largest mineral industry. It analyzes the current status of mineral joint ventures in some of the new Republics, including Russia, Kazakhstan, Tajikistan and the Ukraine, including new legislation and other measures taken by individual states to facilitate foreign investment, as well as prospects, risks and uncertainties associated with investment in FSU mining activities that may be encountered by foreign companies. A successful gold joint venture in Tajikistan is described and evaluated to provide an understanding of the many aspects of an operational FSU project.
