A resource-based economy is a term used for the economy of a country whose gross national product or gross domestic product to a large extent comes from natural resources.

For example Suriname, is depending on the export of Bauxite, which accounts for more than 15% of GDP and 70% of export earnings. Russian export is for more than 80% based on oil, natural gas, metals and timber. Norway depends on the export of oil and gas, that forms 45% of total exports and constitute more than 20% of the GDP.

Alternative use

The term resource-based economy or Post scarcity is also used for an economic theory/ideology, in which things such as goods, services and information are free. This use of the term is by Jacque Fresco, a philosopher and futurist. Fresco has used the term since 1975 in relation to The Venus Project, in Venus, Florida. The Zeitgeist Movement also uses the term resource-based economy as does the Technocracy Movement.
