Kazakhstan has abundant natural resources, and various mineral resources can be sustainably mined for decades to centuries.
Kazakhstan International News Agency - According to the Ministry of Industry and Construction of Kazakhstan, based on the current scale of mining, the gold reserves of Kazakhstan can support mining for 30 years, while iron ore resources can last for as long as 957 years.
Official reports indicate that Kazakhstan remains one of the countries with the richest natural resource reserves in the world. As of now, the exploitable years of Kazakhstan's main mineral resources under the current level of mining intensity are as follows:
Gold: 30 years
Copper: 38 years
Lead: 156 years
Iron Ore: 957 years
Coal: 350 years
At the same time, the reserves of other strategic mineral resources such as manganese, titanium, and molybdenum remain stable.
The authorities emphasized that this indicates that as long as mineral resources are developed rationally and geological exploration is continuously promoted, Kazakhstan not only has the ability to ensure domestic mineral supply for a long time, but will also further consolidate its position in the global raw materials market.
A stable resource base is an important support for attracting foreign investment and promoting the development of the mineral industry, as well as an important guarantee for national economic security.
