Qatar is a small but wealthy country on the Arabian Peninsula. The non-metallic mineral deposit market in Qatar is relatively small, with the industry contributing only 4% of total GDP in 2017. However, due to its location and abundant resources, there are several mining projects that have been proposed or are already underway in Qatar, which could provide significant growth potential for the sector over the coming years.
The primary driver for growth in Qatar non-metallic mineral deposit market is increasing government investment into developing new mines across the country. This includes investments into exploration activities as well as infrastructure development such as roads and railways to improve access to remote areas where minerals can be found. Additionally, increased demand from construction and manufacturing sectors has provided an additional boost for non-metallic mineral production in Qatar.
Despite these drivers of growth, challenges remain within this sector that need to be addressed before it can reach its full potential. These include environmental regulations related to mining activities that need to be tightened up further; ensuring adequate labor availability; and reducing security risks associated with operating mines close by sensitive military bases or other restricted areas.
Major players operating within the non-metallic mineral deposit market of Qatar include Petra Diamonds Limited (UK), China Metallurgical Group Corporation (China), Al Masane Al Kobra Mining Company (Saudi Arabia) and Red Sea International Investment Company SAOCO (UAE). Other major players include Maaden Minerals & Mining Co Ltd., National Petroleum Construction Co LLC., Bahrain Petroleum Company BSC(c), Gulf Drilling International Ltd., Oman Oil Company S A O C among others.
The Qatar Non-Metallic Mineral Deposit market witnessed fluctuations due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Industries such as construction and infrastructure development, which heavily rely on these deposits, faced challenges during the initial outbreak. Project delays and reduced investments impacted the market growth. However, with increased government initiatives to revive the economy and accelerate construction projects, the market showed signs of improvement in the latter half of the forecast period.
