Economic Impact of Montana Hard Rock Mining
Montana's hard rock mining, studied by the Montana Mining Association and UM Bureau of Business and Economic Research, sustains substantial state and local economies. In 2021, mining employed 2,646 people and produced minerals valued near $1.6 billion, with Silver Bow Stillwater and Sweet Grass counties dominating output.
