While global demand for Critical Raw Materials (CRMs) is expected to rise considerably in the coming decades, Central Asia remains an under-studied region, despite its strong, though untapped, CRM potential. This paper maps the CRM state of play in Central Asia, while exploring environmental, social and governance (ESG) considerations relevant to the region’s mining sectors, studying fiscal risks in Central Asia, and providing targeted policy recommendations for governments in the region to consider.
