Abstract
The issues of efficient subsoil use have been high on the agenda for several decades. Their successful solution is largely determined by the correct insight into the nature of rent relations that emerge in the process of using the national wealth. The paper pays a particular attention to the mechanism of product value formation of mining enterprises. In particular, the question is raised regarding the existence of the absolute mining rent and its influence on the prices. Different points of view expressed by representatives of classical political economy on the existence of this type of rental income are discussed.
