Abstract: Understanding the impact of E-governance, mineral resources, and policy stringency on economic growth is pivotal for resource-rich nations. This exploration delves into optimizing resource utilization, designing effective governance mechanisms, and formulating stringent policies to drive sustainable economic development. We explore the relationship between e-governance, mineral resources, environmental policy stringency, and economic growth. It applies Method of Moments of Quantile Regression (MMQR) on panel data from 2003 to 2022. The outcomes revealed that E-governance,mineral resources, and policy stringency significantly and positively impact economic growth. The moderating influence of e-governance with policy stringency and mineral resources stimulate the positive impact of these variables on economic growth. Two-way causality exists between model variables, especially e-governance, policy stringency and economic growth. Alternative estimators validate these findings and offer valuable policy recommendations.
