To better understand the opportunity that lies ahead for gold production in Kazakhstan, it’s useful to look at some recent figures the Kazakhstan Ministry of Industry & New Technologies recently released:
- Monetary equivalent of extracted production of the country’s mining industry for January-February 2011 reached KZT 1.5 trillion, 4.6% more compared to the same period in 2010.
- n 2010, the country exported goods of the metallurgical industry worth US$8 billion which is 39% more than in 2009.
- In addition, gold production increased threefold in 2010.
- By 2014 Kazakhstan plans to produce more than 70 tonnes of gold annually.

For those following recent political developments in Kazakhstan like we do here at Alhambra, it was great news to hear that Kazakhstan’s President reappointed the business-friendly prime minister, who played a key role in steering the country through the recent financial crisis.
The approval followed several hours after the inauguration of Nursultan Nazarbayez for the next five-year presidency, news that many market commentators say ensures political and economic security in Kazakhstan.
Commenting on the significance of the decision to re-appoint Karim Massimov, Kate Mallinson, a political risk analyst at GPW said in an article in the UK’s The Telegraph:
The bestowing of a fourth year on Massimov, in a country where prime ministers are replaced on a frequent basis, is a significant vote of confidence in this competent political player who has skilfully navigated Kazakhstan through the worst of the financial crisis.
