Botswana’s industry sector has seen varied contributions, with a high of 56.9% in 1990, driven by diamond mining, its primary revenue source. Economic diversification attempts led to a decrease, bottoming at 26.7% in 2020. Recovery efforts, including renewed mining operations, increased contributions to 37.4% by 2022. Botswana’s dependency on mining highlights its economic sensitivity to commodity price changes, yet recent growth reflects resilience and strategic mining investments.
