This article is about countries whose income come mainly from natural resources. For the economic model proposed by The Venus Project and The Zeitgeist Movement, see The Venus Project.

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

For example:

  • Suriname's exports of bauxite account for more than 15% of GDP and 70% of export earnings.
  • Of Russian exports, more than 80% are oil, natural gas, metals and timber.
  • Norway's export of oil and gas forms 45% of total exports and more than 20% of the GDP.
  • Australia developed aspects of a resource-based economy in the later twentieth century, while retaining a foundation in agricultural exports, and latterly minerals.
