Pavlodar region occupies one of the leading places in the mineral resource complex of the Republic of Kazakhstan.
More than a third of all coal reserves of Kazakhstan are concentrated in Pavlodar region. The largest of the deposits are Ekibastuzskoye and Maikubenskoye, which store, respectively, 10.5 billion and 2.2 billion tons of energy raw materials. Nine other deposits with a total coal reserve of about three billion tons are also promising for development.
The peculiarity of most of all these deposits is that the coal in them lies not deep, in some places its layers go directly to the surface of the earth. Because of this, mining is carried out in an open way. During the first half century of development of the Ekibastuz basin, more than 2 billion tons of coal have been mined.
The largest porphyry copper deposit Bozshakol has been prepared for development. The ores here lie close to the surface of the earth and contain not only copper, but also molybdenum, silver, and other most valuable metals in industrial concentration. The total copper reserves in all deposits are three and a half million tons.

In the manufacturing industry, production volumes increased by 8.2%
Electricity, gas, steam, hot water and air conditioning supplies increased by 4%
In water supply, sanitation, waste collection, treatment and disposal, and pollution control activities, there is an increase of 8.8%
