The article outlines the reasons for the need to distinguish between international natural resource law as a complex of international legal principles and norms, the prerequisites for its formation, the essence of this legal formation, and its place in the system of international law.
It was established that the international natural resource law is now being formed in the system of international environmental law, which is due to the separation of the block of international legal relations with regard to the use in order to extract the useful properties and the preservation of natural resources (the subject of legal regulation) and the need to combine the economic interests of states and interests in the protection of the environment the environment.
It is determined that international natural resource law is a sub-sector of international environmental law. This is due to the lack of qualitative homogeneity of nature-resource relations as the subject of international legal regulation, their close connection with relations regarding the conservation of natural resources (since the regulation of activities for the conservation of natural resources is directly determined by the content of international legal norms governing the use of nature ), as well as the lack of a natural resource-based international legal framework governing the entire set of natural resource relations.
Key words: international natural resource law, international environmental law, use of natural resources, conservation of natural resources.
