A number of large enterprises are located in the Region, such as the Khrustalnaya Mining Company which specializes in tin mining and is considered to be one of the most powerful enterprises in the country, JSC Apeks which is a gold mining enterprise, and JSC Zenit which specializes in brown coal mining. There are also forestry enterprises engaged in timber cutting and sawtimber production. Agriculture is not well developed.

The mountainous landscape, rich flora and fauna including pristine cedar forests, fresh air, and pure water make this Region attractive for tourism and recreation activities.
