Tapakdore's modern mining industry revolves around aluminum extraction in Owidura province. Open-pit and underground mining methods are both used to extract bauxite ore, which is then processed into aluminum. The state-owned Tapakdore Aluminum Corporation (TAC) dominates this sector but faces pressure to minimize its environmental impact. Lumiere Gems, a private company with international ([[Burgundie|Burgoignesc]]) expertise, owns the last two profitable sapphire and ruby mines in the country. During the latter half of the [[Burgoignesc colonial empire|Burgoignesc colonial rule]] most of the rubies and sapphires were mined out of the country. | Tapakdore's modern mining industry revolves around aluminum extraction in Owidura province.

Similar to Tapakdore's neighbor Umardwal, Tapakdore has received a large sum of foreign aid from [[Tierrador]] to assist in advancements in mining technology. The [[Audonia-Tierrador Corporation]], which is based in [[Asrabad]], Umardwal's capital city with offices in [[Gadhkeri]], was established in 1994 as a subsidiary of [[Auqali Lithium]]. Audonia-Tierrador's mission is to upgrading much of Umardwal's and Tapakdore's mostly outdated mining technology from the Burgoignesc colonization era using Tierradorian funds. This is similar to both countries' logging and timber sector, as Tierradorian influence has allowed their logging industries to see a massive boost since the mid-1990s. | |||
The Qabóri-Audonian Employment Program, established in 1939, is used as an exchange of employees of [[South Crona|South Cronan]]-origin employees to find simple work in a new setting, originally used as a second-chance program for convicted felons of those countries. Similarly, Tapakdori and Umardi nationals have been able to find work in Tierrador, [[Ceylonia]], [[Porlos]], and [[Istrenya]]. | |||
