The Central Asian republics are enormous – former Soviet states of Kazakhstan, Turkmenistan, Uzbekistan, Tajikistan and Kyrgyzstan boast a landmass greater than that of western Europe. They are rich in energy and mineral resources and with the recent positive developments in fiscal policies to attract foreign investors and improvements in local economies and infrastructure to support mining projects, Central Asia has become a hotbed for exploration activities.

As exploration and production costs in Central Asia are lower compared to many of operations  elsewhere and with commodity prices staying at all time high, the region has become a very attractive destination for mining exploration and investment.
