Why Invest in Mongolia?

Mongolia is rich in mineral resources, with key commodities including coal, copper, gold, iron ore, uranium, rare earth elements (REEs), fluorspar, and silicon/carbon-based materials.

Global Top 10 Mineral Deposit

Mongolia ranks among the world’s most resource-rich frontiers:

Copper: #6 globally (Oyu Tolgoi holds +45M tonnes reserves).
Coking Coal: Tavan Tolgoi is a top 5 untapped deposit.
Uranium & Rare Earths: Critical for EVs, renewables, and defense tech.
Gold: 3,400+ metric tonnes estimated reserves.

Gold

Gold is one of Mongolia’s top export commodities, with significant reserves.

Quality & Uses:
