Mining, Quarrying, and Oil and Gas Extraction
How mining, quarrying, and oil and gas extraction are reshaped as AGI capability advances.
The bottom line
Only about 0% of Mining, Quarrying, and Oil and Gas Extraction is information work today — the rest is physical, and moves slowly. The exposure is concentrated in the back office: the books, the paperwork, the scheduling, the marketing.
Why: The NAICS lens description emphasizes that this sector relies entirely on extracting natural resources, operating wells, and mechanically beneficiating materials through crushing and washing. This highly physical nature is reinforced by the child component roll-up summary, where all 3 tracked outputs—including Fuels, Minerals, and Mining Machinery—carry a pure physical score of 0.00.
