    Uzbekistan aims for 22% increase in coal production - President Mirziyoyev

    Uzbekistan aims for 22% increase in coal production - President Mirziyoyev

    Uzbekistan is gearing up to boost coal production by 22%, as reported by the press service of the head of state. On January 15, President Shavkat Mirziyoyev conducted a thorough review of a presentation outlining achievements in the field of geology and laying out future plans. A substantial annual allocation of UZS 1 trillion (approximately $80.5 mn) has fueled geologic initiatives, resulting in the exploration of 31 thousand square kilometers of new sites.

    The industry is presently witnessing the implementation of ambitious investment projects, totaling an impressive $1.7bn. Despite these strides, untapped opportunities abound in the sector to expand fields and enhance their scale of development. In response, the president has issued a directive to attract foreign technologies and investments in geological exploration, aiming to bolster efficiency and production.

    President Mirziyoyev also addressed the crucial matter of processing enrichment waste based on best practices, recognizing the importance of sustainable resource utilization.

    Minister of Mining and Geology, Bobir Islamov, shared insights in an interview with Uzbekistan 24, highlighting the president's order for the development of a strategic mineral resource base with the engagement of international experts. The identification of "unconventional" deposits is a key aspect of this initiative.

    Additionally, the president has instructed to facilitate entrepreneurs with access to "high-quality and cheap" kaolin (white clay), emphasizing the importance of supporting local businesses in the sector.

    Minister Islamov announced the formulation of a new law on subsoil, with the involvement of international consultants from the Boston Consulting Group. 

    According to data from the Statistics Agency, Uzbekistan witnessed the production of 5.73 mn tons of coal in January-November last year, marking a substantial 19.1% increase compared to 2022. This growth signifies the nation's commitment to harnessing its coal resources for economic development.

    Earlier reports from Daryo indicated that Kazakhstan has nearly doubled its coal supplies to Uzbekistan, reflecting a regional dynamic in the coal industry.
