The Exploration and Mining Environment in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia (KSA)

The Arabian-Nubian Shield (ANS) is a renewed frontier of mineral exploration and development. A known host to tier one deposits and very prospective for a diverse range of commodities, it is under-explored as compared to similar shields in Australia, Africa, South America and Canada. 

As host countries adopt and update mining legislation to encourage investment activity, the region is attracting a myriad of new explorers. Discover why there is value in exploring and developing within and adjacent to the ANS, their unique approaches, and their successes.

The presentation covers the current Saudi Arabian licensing process, the current exploration activities in the country, the current mining activities, the Saudi Arabian 2030 vision, as well as a summary of the main operating companies in the Kingdom.
