It is considered an important economic province, as it is a very large source of precious metals in its mountains. It includes the “Mine of MAHD AL-ZAHAB”, which was known in ancient times as “a healthy mineral”. This mine was also invested in the Saudi era during the era of King Abdulaziz. The mine opened in its current form during the reign of the Custodian of the Two Holy Mosques King Fahd bin Abdulaziz - may God have mercy on him - and that was in the year 1403. During the reign of the Custodian of the Two Holy Mosques, King Abdullah bin Abdul Aziz - may God have mercy on him - the "Jabal Sayed Mine" was opened in the MAHD AD-DAHAB Governorate, which is the largest copper mine in the Middle East. It is worth noting that the Kingdom's Vision 2030 is heading towards the development of the mining sector, and AL-MAHD Governorate is a mining area par excellence, which will have a significant impact on the progress of the governorate at all levels. On the other hand, more than half of Saudi oil sales pass within the administrative scope of AL-MAHD Governorate, represented by the oil pipeline (Tap line) that passes through the villages located in the northern part of the governorate, namely Tharb and Al-Mandasa and their surroundings. The source of these pipelines is oil pumps in ABQAIQ city and its destination is to YANBU port overlooking the Red Sea. AL-MAHD Governorate, in particular, in the villages located in the western part of it, which is AL-RUWAIDAH and its environs, is also famous for the cultivation of palm trees and other agricultural crops such as vegetables, fruits and grains.
