Abstract: Background. Currently, there are several socio-economic and technical trends in the global potash market. First, as the world's population grows, the demand for potash fertilizers increases. Secondly, with the advent of discriminatory restrictions, the volume of production and sales of Russian and Belarusian potash plants has been adjusted, and until recently they accounted for 40-43% of global potash fertilizer production. Thirdly, ten years ago, the expected surge in potash fertilizer production in the countries of Central and Southeast Asia did not occur for a number of reasons. And one of these reasons is the underutilization of the potential of Russian and Belarusian research and design organizations and the small-scale use of products from mining and engineering plants of the Union State of Russia and Belarus, which have achieved very good results in the development and production of mining complexes and other equipment. All of the above significantly affects the socio-economic stability of the global economy. The purpose of the study is to identify methods and techniques for analyzing the socio-economic sustainability of regions during the construction of potash mines. Results. The most informative parameters were obtained, showing some aspects of the construction of potash mines as a factor in ensuring the socio-economic sustainability of the regions. Practical implications. It is advisable to apply the results obtained by economic entities engaged in the construction of potash mines.
