Smart Mining Market: Incorporation of Latest Technologies Accelerates | 2025

Posted by ROSHAN KHACHANE on May 23rd, 2019

Rising concerns about mining operation optimization and introduction of Internet of Things (IoT) solutions in mining has resulted in the mining industry beginning explorations in remote locations. Uncertain commodity price environment has put tremendous pressure on demand and supply side of the mining industry. Resource nationalization coupled with declining productivity and increasing operational cost have created a dire need for optimizing mining operations by increasing efficiencies to withstand the regulatory environment. As a consequence, mining companies across the globe have started integrating information and operational technologies to improve performance. Smart mining solutions and technologies are enabling mining companies to maximize commercial outcomes through optimizing several processes, improving safety, and removing redundant processes through data integration and seamless communication using the Internet of Things (IoT). With this background, the global smart mining market is estimated to be worth US.25 bn by the end of 2025 from US.80 bn in 2016. During the forecast years of 2017 and 2025, the overall market is estimated to register a CAGR of 10.2%.
