Avaldatud 07. veebruar 2017.a.
In 2016 the production sector of Estonia was significantly influenced by recession in the mining industry. Decrease in production volumes of this sphere was 16% for the year, and slate and peat production became the main hindered sectors. Mineral fuel production was also reduced because of decrease in volumes of slate production by 18%.
In the fourth quarter the mining industry achieved a remarkable success - the production volumes increased by 9% in comparison with the same period of the previous year. In 2017 experts predict the further growth in indices of the industrial sector due to increase in import demand.
