Middle East & Africa Smart Mining Market Forecast to 2028 - COVID-19 Impact and Regional Analysis By Component (Hardware, Software and Solution, and Services) and Mining Type (Underground Mining and Surface Mining)
Market Introduction
The smart mining market in the MEA is further segmented into South Africa, Saudi Arabia, UAE, and the Rest of the MEA. The region is expected to witness a rapid increase in commercialization and industrialization, which would further boost various industrial sectors. The Gulf countries are economically developed, while the African countries are yet to match up to the economic conditions of the Gulf countries. The MEA is the world’s largest center for mineral mining (diamond, gold, phosphate) as well as for oil and gas operations; mineral mining is an emerging industry offering impressive opportunities for smart mining, resources, and infrastructure companies. The Gulf countries are looking forward to diversifying their economies and reducing their dependency on oil and gas and creating jobs for young, fast-growing population. Mining in the Middle East and Africa has a promising future. Industry players in the Middle East point to the fact that much of the area has yet to be explored utilizing contemporary techniques and equipment. Despite the fact that Africa has more than 30% of the world's mineral reserves, the region receives less than 5% of the overall global mining exploration and extraction budget. The potential for a thriving mining sector in these two developing regions is enormous. Many nations in the Middle East and Africa have recently enacted or are in the process of enacting new mining regulations to stimulate investment. In a variety of fields, including mining, the Gulf Cooperation Council nations in the Middle East are working to build a single regulatory structure. These are the initial steps toward the development of a world-class mining sector that has the potential to significantly contribute to the region's economic growth and job possibilities. The growing mining sector in the region will propel the demand of smart mining in the region.
In case of COVID-19, MEA is highly affected especially South Africa. Other countries such as Egypt, Morocco, and Kuwait are also facing the effects of COVID-19 pandemic. The majority of operations in the region have been suspended due to an increase in the number of cases in the region. In order to deal with the pandemic, countries have been compelled to redirect funds to improve their healthcare infrastructure. As a result, the demand for mining solution in the mining industry is dwindling. As a result, the COVID-19 pandemic is limiting the demand development of smart mining in the MEA. The mining industry is likely to pick up pace soon after the governments across the MEA region steadily lift the various containment measures in order to revive the economy. The production of the mining equipment is anticipated to gain pace from 2022, which is further foreseen to positively influence the mining industry, including hardware components of mining.

Market Overview and Dynamics
The MEA smart mining market is expected to grow from US$ 643.22 million in 2021 to US$ 1,664.30 million by 2028; it is estimated to grow at a CAGR of 14.5% from 2021 to 2028. Surging data security issues is expected to escalate the market growth. Data sources in the mining industry can be classified into two parts, namely, direct, or indirect (ancillary) measurements. Direct measurement sources are those taken by instruments such as GPS and conventional geodetic surveys. Indirect references refer to systems that collect data as a by-product of processes or operations such as Fleet Management Systems, SCADA or DCS data, blast hole drills, and geomodelling data. For improving ore recovery, an ore body modelling technique is used. The model provides geological patterns that help in determining the drill holes. The right mining decisions, therefore, depends on the availability of correct data from multiple systems combined with real-time data analytics. These decisions can be applied to mining production, exploration, and operations. They can also be used for monitoring and reporting metrics and KPIs. Additionally, they help in identifying root causes for operational bottlenecks such as unscheduled truck maintenance delays, long queuing time of trucks and LHDs, delays in lab samples undergoing quality control and batch processing, etc. Mining companies usually have confidential data, which needs to be protected during accidents and unpredicted natural hazards. Digitizing the mining processes may pave the way for hackers to access the network and regulate the operations of the mine. An effective way to protect the on-site data is by using on-site data acquisition systems that help prevent data, as their wireless network of geophysical sensors is concentrated in an area being tracked at the site. Smart mining systems collect and process their data on servers located / near the site, which are only connected to the network. This ensures that hackers are unable to access the system, and thus, provides data security. Therefore, growing security concerns will escalate the demand of smart mining, thereby driving the MEA market growth in coming years.
