Middle East and Africa Dolomite Market

Market Introduction

The dolomite market in the Middle East & Africa is sub segmented into South Africa, Saudi Arabia, UAE, and the Rest of the Middle East & Africa. Owing to rapid infrastructure development, Dubai, Abu Dhabi, and Iran are among the major contributors to the market growth in this region. Shift in consumer lifestyles, coupled with industrialization and urbanization, boost the demand for construction activities, thereby stimulating the adoption and mining of dolomite as a construction aggregate. Various government initiatives such as Qatar National Vision 2030, Saudi Vision 2021, Dubai Vision 2021, and South Africa National Development Plan 2030 would provide thrust to the development of non-oil sectors, such as construction, iron, and steel, which will add to the demand for dolomite among these industries. According to the World Trade Integrated Solutions, the UAE and South Africa were among the leading dolomite exporting countries in 2018. The presence of several mining sites in South Africa and the UAE is also driving the dolomite market growth in the Middle East & Africa.

In the Middle East & Africa region, South Africa and Israel are among the major countries with high number of COVID-19 confirmed cases and deaths. According to the International Finance Corporation, the COVID-19 pandemic has a severe impact on the economy of the Middle East & Africa which has led to decline in oil production, tourism, and remittances. The Middle East & Africa region comprises many growing economies, which are prospective markets for dolomite vendors. The pandemic has significantly slowed down the growth of dolomite market in the region due to negative impact upon the growth of industries such as construction, iron and steel, and others.

    Market Overview and Dynamics

    The dolomite market in Middle East & Africa is expected to grow US$ 1,317.11 million by 2028 from US$ 1,073.72 million in 2021. The market is estimated to grow at a CAGR of 3.0% from 2021 to 2028. Dolomite has a wide scope of applications in end-user industries such as construction, iron and steel, ferroalloys, ceramics and glass, agriculture, and animal feed. Its preference and adoption in industries depends on the grade of the rock. Dolomite is a commonly used substance in the construction industry because of its hardness and density. It is used in the manufacturing of bricks, cement, concrete, paving materials, etc. In the iron and steel industry, dolomite is used in three forms—raw dolomite, calcined dolomite, and sintered dolomite. In the iron and steel industry, it is mainly used as a fluxing material for the protection of refractory lining, and as a refractory raw material. Raw dolomite or calcined dolomite is used as a fluxing material. The use of dolomite as a flux has grown, particularly, due to growing concerns regarding contamination. The material is also used as a refractory material in steel factories. Dolomite is used for acid neutralization in the chemicals industries and stream restoration projects. It is also used as a source of magnesia (MgO), a feed additive for livestock. Dolomite is an important component in animal feed because of its high magnesium and calcium carbonate content. In farming, it is also used as a soil conditioner to neutralize acidity. It helps change the pH of the soil by bringing it to match the plant’s needs, thereby improving the crop yield. In fertilizers, paints & varnishes, dolomite is used as a filler. Dolomite is used in the manufacture of automotive glass, construction glass, fiberglass, etc., for improving the viscosity of the glass melt; it also increases the scratch and chemical resistance of the glass. The growing glass industry in the region contributes to the market growth. Further, dolomite is used as the host rock for lead, zinc, and copper deposits. Sometimes, it can be used as an oil and gas reservoir rock. When limestone is transformed into dolomite, the dolomitization process results in a minor volume reduction. This can produce a porosity zone in the strata where dolomitization has occurred. Subsurface fluids such as oil and natural gas can be trapped in these pore spaces. Thus, with the growth of various end-user industries, such as construction, iron and steel, and ceramics and glass, the demand for dolomite is also growing.
