Dushanbe, December 9 (Xinhua) — With the development of the green economy worldwide, demand for critical minerals is growing year by year. This was stated by Tajik Prime Minister Kokhir Rasulzoda on Tuesday at the 2nd International Mining and Metallurgy Forum in Dushanbe.
According to the Khovar news agency, citing the prime minister, Tajikistan possesses reserves of 10 of the 17 metals and minerals considered critical for the transition to a green economy. According to international estimates, the combined market value of these resources could exceed $800 billion by 2030.
"Tajikistan, with its rich reserves of mineral raw materials, can become a key partner for major global industrial enterprises that utilize such resources in their production," noted K. Rasulzoda.
According to the Ministry of Industry and New Technologies of Tajikistan, hundreds of deposits have been identified in the country, comprising approximately 70 types of minerals. Currently, the extraction of precious and non-ferrous metals accounts for over 40 percent of the industry's output and is considered a key area of national economic development.
