Mining and quarrying gross output drops by 36.1 percent www.montsame.mn

According to the National Statistics Office of Mongolia, in the first 2 months of 2022, the gross industry al output reached MNT 2.3 trillion, decreased by MNT 729.2 billion (24.2 percent) from the previous year. This decrease was mainly due to MNT 784.3 billion (36.1 percent) decrease in mining and quarrying gross output.
In addition, the manufacturing production output increased by MNT 31.2 (5.8 percent), electricity, thermal energy and water supply production output increased by MNT 19.7 billion (7.1 percent) and the water supply, and sewerage, waste management, and remediation activities production output rose by MNT 4.3 billion (18.1 percent) from the previous year.
By preliminary results, in the first 2 months of 2022, the mining and quarrying gross output reached MNT 1.4 trillion, dropped by MNT 784.3 billion (36.1 percent) from the same period of previous year. This decrease was mainly due to declines in mining of coal and lignite by 752.2 billion (75.5 percent) and extraction of crude petroleum by MNT 136.5 billion (94.7 percent) from same period of the previous year.
