description The relevance of the study is dictated by the growing role of the fuel and energy complex of developing countries in the decarbonization of the economy. The article discusses the digital transformation of mining enterprises in Kazakhstan, taking into account the transition to CRIRSCO international standards and growing competition in the global mineral market. The purpose of the study is to assess the current level of digitalization of the mining industry in Kazakhstan and to deepen the methodological apparatus of the geological and economic assessment of the enterprise based on the factual base of deposits. The role of the transformation of the mining sector in achieving the sustainability of the poorly diversified economy of Kazakhstan is shown. The importance of digitalization of the industry to complete the transition to CRIRSCO international standards and improve the assessment of the digital provision of enterprises in order to optimize their financial and economic policies is argued. It has been established that, at present, most of the enterprises in the investment-attractive mining sector have a low potential for the transition to a new technological paradigm. A methodological approach to the geological and economic assessment of these enterprises has been developed. To maintain high standards of management transparency through the digitalization of key business processes, along with well-known practices of economic analysis, the IDEF1 methodology was used. In order to expand the software ecosystem, the formats of electronic geological and economic databases are integrated into the digital infrastructure of the enterprise. It is substantiated that the introduction of high technologies in the mining industry requires institutional changes and coordinated interaction between the state, business, and universities as equal partners.
