AS A MINING SECTOR, WE EXPORTED 2023 BILLION DOLLARS IN 5,7
İbrahim Alimoğlu, Chairman of the Board of Directors of the Aegean Mineral Exporters Association, said, “Turkey is among the important players in the production and export of natural stone and minerals in general throughout the world. Our power in the sector is increasing day by day with our rich mineral deposits, quality products, promising technological infrastructure and competitive prices. As Türkiye, we export nearly 80 minerals. In addition to direct mineral exports, our mines also indirectly contribute to our economy as raw materials for other sectors. As the mining sector, we exported 2023 billion dollars in 5,7. One-third of our exports, worth 1,9 billion dollars, were natural stone exports. Our exports, which were 2022 billion dollars in 6,5, decreased in 2023. "The difficulties encountered both locally and in the global economic order caused this decline." said.
