About the district

Uchquduq District was created on 25 March 1982. It lies in the west of the region in the Kyzylkum Desert, bordering Kazakhstan's Kyzylorda Region to the north, the Republic of Karakalpakstan to the west, Bukhara Region's Peshku District to the south and Tomdi and Konimex districts to the east. The climate is sharply continental, with January averaging −6 °C and July 27 °C. Its centre is the town of Uchquduq.

Uchquduq grew up around uranium deposits in the 1950s and became a town in 1978; uranium and gold are mined here today, including at the Kokpatas gold deposit. In the Mingbulak depression lie the Jaraquduq canyons, with dinosaur and other ancient fossils and a 'Stone Forest'. On 1 January 2026 the district had 39,900 residents and covers more than 45,000 km².
