Indonesia's natural environment contains various types of precious minerals, one of which is gold. However, this resource could be depleted in less than 40 years.

This is evident from the report Integrated System of Environmental and Economic Accounts of Indonesia released by the Central Statistics Agency (BPS).

BPS calculates the estimated remaining lifespan of Indonesia's natural resource assets by comparing available reserves with the extraction rate in recent years.

Based on the reserves at the end of 2024, Indonesia's gold resources are estimated to be exploitable for another 36 years.

Other mineral types with shorter remaining lifespans include nickel, which can be exploited for the next 25 years, and copper, which will only last another 21 years.

Meanwhile, mineral reserves estimated to last longer are bauxite (174 years), silver (76 years), and tin (42 years).
