“Vision 2030 places the mining sector at the heart of its transformation and net-zero goals. Robust, accurate data and sharp insights are vital for the decarbonization of hard-to-abate sectors like mining. Establishing our new office in Riyadh will allow us to better support the Kingdom and clients to decarbonize mining operations and achieve sustainable long-term growth,” said CRU’s CEO David Trafford.

If everything goes according to plan, Saudi Arabia could dominate the mining markets along with the oil sector in 2030. The next decade could be different as the Kingdom’s aspirations are changing rapidly to keep its economy diverse and thriving.
