According to a new report published by Allied Market Research, titled, “Smart Mining Market by Type and Category: Opportunity Analysis and Industry Forecast, 2020–2027,” the global smart mining market size was valued at $9.3 billion in 2019 and is expected to reach $23.4 billion by 2027, growing at a CAGR of 16.3% from 2020 to 2027. In 2019, in terms of revenue, Asia-Pacific dominated the market, accounting for over one-thirds of the global smart mining market share.
Smart mining technologies include integration of hardware and software to improve the mining productivities and reduce the operational time and costs. Mining companies emphasize on enhancing productivity by providing state-of-the-art software & solutions. These software & solutions are integrated with the equipment, personnel, and operations to obtain enhanced safety and higher material extraction from the mining operations. These technologies find applications in both underground and surface (open pit & open cast) mining operations.
The surface mining operations mainly benefit by utilizing the autonomous robotic fleet used for loading, hauling & dumping (LHD) operations. In addition, increased awareness regarding harsh influences of mining atmospheres caused by UV radiations, noise, dust, chemical hazards, poisonous gases, and others on the mine workers drives the dependency on robotic equipment. The robotic equipment allows remotely controlled operations, which eliminate the exposure of these polluted environment on workers. This acts as one of the major driving factors for the global smart mining market growth.
Further, constant technological developments in software & solutions allow the mining companies to obtain proper risk management; thus, reducing the unplanned expenditure. For instance, by integration of data analytic solutions, the sustainability, safety, and profitability of the mining site can be ensured to a great extent.
The involvement of analytics solutions by the U.S.-based software provider Cognizant increased the output of the mine by 8%. In addition, the equipment and mining parts on-time delivery was more than 95%, and the mean time to resolve (MTTR) breaches in services reduced by 5%. The recognition of these advantages can motivate the mining companies to introduce various smart technologies & services in the operations.
Asia-Pacific accounted for the highest revenue in 2019 compared to other regions, due to increased adoption from mining sites in Australia and China. In Europe, the necessity of raw materials and dependency on import of metals drive the mining industry. Thus, the growth in mining operations is expected to create lucrative opportunities for the growth of the global smart mining market in this region during the forecast period.
