The global digital mining market was valued at US$ 8.82 Bn in 2021 and is expected to expand at a CAGR of 9.2% during the forecast period from 2025 to 2033. The projected growth of the digital mining market worldwide will be propelled by a combination of factors including perpetually growing adoption of autonomous equipment, rising emphasis on health and safety, and growing environmental concerns. Furthermore, the growing penetration of advanced technologies including Internet of Things has helped companies reduce their labor cost significantly leading to cost optimization. In addition, companies involved in mining activities are gradually adopting artificial intelligence, 3D modeling, and integrated automation among others. This is fuelling the growth of the digital mining market.

"Surface Mining to Dominate; Underground Mining to Register Maximum Growth throughout the Forecast Period"

Based on type, the global digital mining market is categorized into two major categories, namely: underground mining and surface mining. Surface mining is the most widely used type to extract metals and minerals from the ground is expected to dominate with more than 50% of the market share throughout the forecast period of 2025-2033. As most of the resources are available for extraction from the surface of earth itself this segment accounts for majority of the market revenue share. On the other hand, underground mining is expected to register superior growth on account of fast depleting minerals on the surface. As the resources available on the surface are fast depleting, extraction of metals and minerals has to be done underground thus helping this segment to grow rapidly during the forecast period. In the recent times, development and adoption of advanced technology such as integrated automation, Internet of Things (IoT), and automated mining equipment for underground mining among others are propelling the growth of this segment.

"Asia Pacific Dominates; North America and Europe Touted to Register Significant Growth during the Forecast Period"

In 2021, Asia Pacific was the largest value contributing region to the global digital mining market followed by North America and Europe respectively. Asia Pacific is expected to grow at a CAGR of 9.9% during the forecast period from 2025 to 2033. This is due to the significant growth observed across developing countries such as China and India. Escalating number of mining activities is projected to encourage the growth of the Asia Pacific digital mining market in the upcoming years. In contrast, North America is expected to register sturdier growth, especially during the initial years on the back of large investments made by multiple organizations, robust infrastructure and rapid adoption of digital age products. The anticipated demand for digital mining in North America is expected to be driven by the ongoing paradigm shift towards digitization in countries such as the U.S.
