    The CIS countries as a whole occupy one of the first places in the world in terms of the volume of explored resources of gas, oil, coal, iron and manganese ore, many non-ferrous metals, potassium salts and other important types of minerals.
    The bulk of the reserves of coal, oil, natural gas, peat and oil shale account for the Russian Federation. Kazakhstan and Ukraine have significant coal reserves, Azerbaijan, Kazakhstan and Turkmenistan have oil reserves, and Turkmenistan and Uzbekistan have natural gas reserves. Small oil reserves have also been explored in Belarus, Kyrgyzstan and Tajikistan.

    In general, the Commonwealth states occupy second place in the world (after Brazil) in terms of average annual river flow, and also have significant potential exploitable reserves groundwater And water resources lakes, but these water resources are distributed unevenly across the territory of states, which is explained by different climatic, geographical, geological and hydrological conditions of individual regions.
    The driest areas are the territories of deserts, semi-deserts and dry steppes of states Central Asia and Kazakhstan, as well as the Lower Volga region of the Russian Federation. Underresourced fresh water also the south of Ukraine (including the steppe part of Crimea), a significant part of Moldova and a number of other regions in individual states.
    About 90% of the average annual river flow occurs in the Russian Federation. The total volume of water in the lakes (including those bordering countries outside the CIS) is over 100 trillion cubic meters.
