Kelekona holds many natural resources within its borders, similar to many other nations around the Malentine Basin. Among its largest troves of minerals include ores of cobalt, lithium, iron, and tungsten. Many of these minerals have a wide range of applications ranging from being among the materials needed for {{wp|lithium-ion batteries}} to {{wp|radiation shielding}}. The wealth of those four minerals alone has allowed for Kelekona to subsist on resource and mineral extraction as the only fully-functional sector of the Kelekonese economy ever since the late 2000s, but there have been a few breakthroughs in both its technology sector and the field of telecommunications; both sectors are presently reliant on support and funding from Arcerion, but both are poised to become major sectors of the Kelekonese economy in the future as the nation becomes more and more stable.

The relative stability that the nation has found itself in after the end of the Second Civil War in 2025 through not just the efforts of its government but also from peacekeeping forces from [[The Cape]] and Arcerion has allowed for the Kelekonese economy to experience a period of economic growth at an average of 13% in GDP growth for the past few years; though GDP growth has happened on average since 2002, with the GDP growing from 116.6 billion that year to 544.0 billion in 2032. In 2027, the [[Royal Bank of Arcerion]] has approved a loan of £1.6 billion as well as an additional line of credit of an undisclosed amount to be used in Kelekona's efforts in reconstruction and restoring order. Much of the money loan has been put into use for infrastructure upgrades, namely replacing the dirt roads and destroyed paved roads with gravel roads, energy sector improvements, and rail modernization to help in integrating Kelekona the Malentine Basin's growing combined and interconnected economic framework.

Kelekona's biggest trading partner is Varshan, but Arcerion is poised to soon surpassing the former. Varshan has historically been the biggest trading partner not only because of Kelekona's history of having been a Varshani tributary state for centuries, but also because of the two lands having been indigenous-majority countries. However, Arcerion has been becoming Kelekona's first choice in trading ever since the fall of Varshan after the Deluge ended in 2024 through it being where much of Kelekona's exports are sent to and due to its relative stability compared to Varshan; the minerals imported to Arcerion are used in its manufacturing sector for various technological products. It is also through Arcerion that Kelekona imports energy, foodstuffs, machinery used in the agricultural sector, and other goods from. Historically, the amount of imports from Arcerion has fluctuated over the years due to the tense relationship between the two countries, but with the end of formal hostilities since 2007 and the current Kelekonese government's abolition of the military in 2025 trade between the two nations have increased.
