In January 2026, the structure of industrial production in Kyrgyzstan showed the following results: the share of mineral extraction accounted for 10%. The most significant part, equal to 73.3%, was attributed to the manufacturing sector, according to data provided by the National Statistical Committee.

Sectors engaged in the supply of electricity, gas, and heat made up 15.9% of the total volume, while water supply, waste treatment, and secondary raw material recovery accounted for only 0.8%.

The total production volume in the mineral extraction sector in January 2026 reached 6,970.4 million soms, and the physical volume index compared to January 2025 was 137.7%, indicating significant growth in this area.

The main factor contributing to the increase in the mining industry was the rise in the production of metallic ores, which increased by 1.7 times, as well as the extraction of other minerals, which also increased by 1.7 times. In addition, there was a growth in the extraction of hard and brown coal (lignite) by 16.8%.
