Gold mining
Large-scale operations at Aurora and Omai, together with extensive small and medium-scale mining in the interior, make gold the country's leading non-oil export.
Bauxite and alumina
Bauxite mining and alumina refining around Linden, once the backbone of the economy, now operate at reduced scale under foreign ownership.
Rice and sugar processing
Rice milling in Essequibo and Berbice and sugar processing on the coastal belt remain important rural employers and export earners.
Forestry and wood products
Timber, plywood and furniture production from the interior forests, together with food and beverage processing, round out a still-small manufacturing sector.
