Report Coverage
This report on stone quarrying, clay and sandpits, and mining of phosphates in South Africa includes comprehensive information on the size and state of the industry, including relevant construction industry information, number and sites of operations, production volumes, prices, notable players, corporate actions, trade and influencing factors such as construction and infrastructure development. Profiles of 23 companies include those involved in quarrying, clay and sandpits such as Afrimat, AfriSam Brikor, Raubex and PPC, and companies involved in phosphate mining including the dominant producer Foskor and much smaller players Gecko Fert and Kropz.
Introduction
• South Africa’s quarrying industry extracts stone, clay, sand and aggregates, which are essential for construction and manufacturing activities. • South Africa is known for its diverse range of natural stone resources, and it has significant clay deposits. • The quarrying industry faces challenges including regulatory compliance, environmental sustainability, community engagement and market volatility. • The phosphate mining industry provides a key ingredient in the production of fertilisers. • The industry has the opportunity to produce value-added products, and there are export opportunities.
Outlook
• Increasing demand, technology and investment will drive growth in quarrying. • The growing contribution of the private sector in infrastructure and renewable energy is expected to be positive for construction and infrastructure growth. • Phosphate miner Foskor has not met the demands of the local agriculture sector and South Africa remains highly reliant on fertiliser imports. • Energy, infrastructure and transportation issues continue to hamper production of phosphoric acid and phosphate fertiliser. • Phosphate is increasingly becoming a sought-after battery material for the electric vehicle industry.
