The Rosia Montana Project will re-establish Romania's rich natural resource industry and bring wealth to Romania's economy and its citizens through investment in the Project.

The Project is anticipated to bring US$19 billion to Romania as potential direct and indirect contribution to GDP according to 2010 estimates from UK-based Oxford Policy Management (using a gold price of US$900/oz). This is a significant economic impact, creating employment opportunities, new business possibilities as well as making a major contribution to both local and central governmental budgets.

This Project is a major investment not just for Rosia Montana but for Romania as a whole, providing much needed high-skilled jobs for the community. It will serve to signal to the industry worldwide that Romania welcomes the growth of its resource sector, potentially attracting more in foreign direct investment in the future, and stimulating investment across the economic spectrum of Romania's ports, transport, industrial and IT sectors. The kind of investment Romania is likely to attract in the coming years will test and shape the national economy.
