Researched by Industrial Info Resources (Sugar Land, Texas)--Industrial Info is pleased to be presenting a complimentary webinar on the spending outlook for the global Metals & Minerals Industry on Wednesday, February 15, at 10 a.m. CST (11 a.m. EST). The webinar will be replayed for audiences in Europe and the Asia-Pacific region. Make sure to RSVP now!

In 2022, the Metals & Minerals Industry saw an increase in the demand for metals, thanks to an improved global economic outlook, but as the year progressed, geopolitical uncertainty such as rising tensions between the U.S. and China and the Russia-Ukraine conflict affected markets. Environmental, social and governance (ESG) risks and opportunities, and issues with permitting for mining, have disrupted already struggling supply chains across the globe.

Industrial Info is tracking more than $2 trillion worth of active metals and minerals projects across the world, with Asia and North America taking the lead in regard to project value.

One of the highest-value active mining projects kicked off in Canada last year, when BHP Group Limited (Melbourne, Australia) began work on a grassroot potash mine and mill in Saskatchewan. The $5 billion+ project is the first phase of further mine development, and upon completion, which is expected in early 2027, it will bring a 4.3 million to 4.5 million underground room and pillar mining operation with a processing plant to produce compacted granular potash.

Our industry experts will discuss the big issues and trends impacting project spending for the global Metals & Minerals Industry for the remainder of 2023 and 2024. Learn more about which companies are pursuing these projects and the direction of new trends in the industry.
