Natural Reserves

Turkey ranks 10th in the world in terms of the diversity of minerals produced in the country. One of the richest mineral deposits is boron salts and Turkey’s reserves amount to 63% of the world’s total. This ranks second in Turkey’s exports of mining products after marble and natural stones, which has been rapidly developing since 1985, and has registered an average annual growth rate which is twice the world average. There are over 120 marble deposits of different colours, design and quality in 80 districts. In 2003 the total export value of this sector was $431 million.
