In Russia, non-metallic ores are also mined, such as phosphates, apatites, potassium salts, diamonds, amber, precious stones, and there are simpler resources like sand, clay, limestone, marble, granite, and much more.

The main consumers of Russian resources are:
- China - buys oil and oil products, coal and gas, iron and copper ores, timber, copper, and aluminum;
