Economic pillar — mining's strategic position in Saudi Vision 2030

Sector Overview

We advise mining companies, industrial operators, and government entities on the strategy, policy, and implementation required to develop Saudi Arabia's mineral wealth. From regulatory design and licensing frameworks through to company establishment and operational planning — we bring deep expertise to one of the Kingdom's most strategically important sectors.

Mining has been identified as the 'third pillar' of the Saudi economy, alongside oil and petrochemicals. The ambition is extraordinary — transforming a sector that historically contributed less than 1% of GDP into a globally competitive mining industry. We have been at the heart of this transformation, working with MIMR to establish the Saudi Mining Service Company, develop regulatory frameworks, and build the institutional infrastructure required to attract international investment. Our advisory combines mining-specific technical knowledge with deep understanding of Saudi Arabia's unique operating environment.
