The article aims to assess the priorities for entrepreneurship development in Kazakhstan's coal industry. The role of entrepreneurship in the coal industry is considered. Scientific and methodological approaches to the choice of methods for assessing the economic potential of coal mining enterprises have been identified. Currently, digitalization of production is becoming the main factor of sustainable development. The priorities for developing entrepreneurship in the coal industry are: product diversification, transitioning to environmentally friendly technologies, expanding exports and searching for new markets, and developing coal mining and transportation infrastructure. The dynamics of coal mining and coal exports in the country have been studied. Based on this analysis, a correlation and regression analysis was performed. Thus, the results of the analysis allow us to conclude that the change in production volumes does not have a statistically significant impact on coal exports.
