This article forecasts the economic effects of green innovation in the mining industry through the case of Navoi Mining and Metallurgical Company. The study departs from descriptive sustainability analysis and focuses on the economic transmission mechanism of green innovation: energy savings, cost reduction, production continuity, additional income and long-term competitiveness. The article shows that green innovation in mining should be interpreted as an investment logic rather than an ecological expense. The results indicate that energy-saving measures, renewable energy, digital control and resource-efficient modernization can generate cumulative economic effects and strengthen the strategic competitiveness of large-scale mining enterprises.Keywords
