Rising demand for minerals and metals along with technology advancements are the major factors influencing market growth.
Market Size – USD 25.83 Billion in 2018, Market Growth - CAGR of 3.0 %, Market Trends –Growing demand for electricity and rising demand from various industries are responsible for the growth opportunities of the global market.
The global Surface Mining Market is estimated to reach USD 32.92 Billion by 2026, according to a new report by Reports and Data. This can be mainly associated with the consumption of metals and minerals across the globe in several end-user industries such as electronic and electrical, and machinery industries. Also, increasing demand for electricity is expected to drive the growth of the market positively. According to the World Bank, global metal consumption observed a positive growth of about 1.80% in 2016.
Additionally, the increasing use of metals across the globe is promoting the expansion of global market. Apart from this, an abundance of mineral and metal ores in the world is expected to impact the growth of the market positively. Growing consumption of electricity has raised the demand for coals in the world. This factor is expected to augment the growth of the global surface mining market. Further, improvement in surface mining technologies is also responsible for the growth of the market. Also, the market is observing the launch of new and innovative surface mining solutions, which further enhances operational efficiency. This factor is expected to initiate current and future market growth prospects.
Surface mining is a kind of mining in which mineral deposits are collected by removing overlying rock and soil. The initial type of surface mining methods includes open-pit mining, strip mining, and mountaintop removal. Surface mining offers several advantages over underground mining, such as less complexity and low operational cost.
North America accounts for the largest market share of 32.3% in 2018. Presence of a large number of metallic, coal, and non-metallic resources in the region is forecasted to spur the growth of the market in this region. The abundance of non-metallic mineral ores in Canada is believed to stimulate the growth of the market in North America. U.S. and Canada are considered to be a significant contributor to the growth of the market in the North America region.
