(EnergyIndustry.Net, September 21, 2017 ) The global mining chemicals market has been estimated to grow at a slow pace, while projecting a CAGR of 3.64%, in terms of revenue, during the forecast period. One of the major factors driving the growth of the market is the increasing mining activities in Canada and Mexico. Mining chemicals play a major role in the processing of mineral ores. With the increase in consumption of base metals (such as iron, steel, aluminum, etc.) and precious metals (such as, silver, gold, and platinum), mining activities for the aforementioned metals have surged globally, especially in Canada and Mexico. For instance, the mining industry in Mexico has always been a focus for foreign mining companies and investors. The focus is due to Mexico’s vast resources of precious metals and minerals, coupled with flexible legal requirements. The availability of skilled and cheap labor is an added advantage. The country is the largest silver producer globally, accounting for nearly 20% of the global silver production. Mexico is also home to many metals and minerals, such as fluorite, lead, zinc, bismuth, and sodium, among others, making the country one of the top 20 mineral-rich countries worldwide. This, in turn, is expected to boost the demand for mining chemicals in Mexico. BASF, Clariant, The Dow Chemical Company, Cytec Solvay Group, Akzo Nobel N.V., etc., are among the major players in the mining chemicals industry.
