Azerbaijan mining and metallurgy sector development

Overview

Azerbaijan is implementing a state program for 2027–2030 to expand its mining and metallurgical industries, aiming to increase the sector’s annual export potential from 1.3 billion manat to 3.4 billion manat by 2030. The initiative includes preparing the ‘Filizçay’ polymetallic deposit for exploitation and exploring the creation of local metal smelting facilities to process copper domestically.

Further developments have identified significant mineral and precious metal reserves in the Agdere and Kalbajar regions. These include large deposits of copper, gold, silver, and coltan, as well as mercury, marble, onyx, and nephrite. Experts suggest these resources will serve as primary drivers for the economic development of Karabakh and East Zangezur.
