On October 23-27, 2023, the 16th International Scientific School of Young Scientists and Specialists “Problems of Subsoil Development in the XXI Century through the Eyes of the Young” was held at the N.V. Melnikov Institute for the Problems of Integrated Subsoil Development of the Russian Academy of Sciences (IPKON RAS) (Moscow, Russian Federation). The conference was held under the auspices of the Ministry of Science and Higher Education of the Russian Federation, the Russian Academy of Sciences (Earth Sciences Division), the Scientific Council for the Problems of Mining Sciences of the RAS, the Scientific Council for the Problems of Mineral Processing of the RAS, the Scientific Council of the IPKON RAS, and the Council of Young Scientists and Specialists of the IPKON RAS.
The information support was provided by the Scientific, Technical and Production Journal “Mine Surveying and Subsoil Use”, the Department of State Youth Policy and Educational Activities of the Ministry of Education and Science of the Russian Federation.
