Virginia's economy is well balanced with diverse sources of income. From the Hampton Roads area to Richmond and down to Lee County in the southwest it includes military installations, cattle, tobacco and peanut farming in South Virginia. Northern Virginia (once the dairy capital of Virginia) hosts software, communications, consulting, defense contracting, diplomats, and considerable components of the professional government sector.
Coal mining in Virginia dates to Midlothian and Gayton during the 18th and 19th century, and some mines are still active in southwest Virginia. Kaolin clay has also been mined at Willis Mountain and at Bon Air.

Gold mining was once economically significant, and, at its peak, Virginia was the third largest gold-producing state. Though there are no active commercial mines, gold prospecting continues today on an amateur/hobbyist basis. A large diamond was once discovered during a minor excavation in Manchester.
