Summary/Abstract: The Republic of Moldova is a country with few underground resources, at least at the current level of research. Consequently, the Republic of Moldova does not have an extractive sector with an important weight in the structure of the economy. At the same time, without this sector it would be difficult to cover the needs of supplying the population and businesses with housing, buildings and other infrastructure elements. On the other hand, if we take into account the fact that for the Republic of Moldova the soil and climate traditionally represent the fundamental resources for livelihood and economy, then the way in which the exploitation of useful mineral resources is carried out is very important. The object of this analysis is only the widespread useful mineral resources (sand, clay, building stone, clayey sand and sandy clay, etc.). Respectively, oil, natural gas, solid fuels were not included in this study.
