The global mining equipment market size was valued at USD 83.7 billion in 2024 and is estimated to register a CAGR of 5.2% between 2025 and 2034. The global move towards renewable energy and electrification has increased the demand for critical minerals such as lithium, copper, and nickel, which are important for battery production and energy storage in electric vehicles (EVs) and renewable energy systems. According to Statista, in 2023, around 3.6 million metric tons of nickel was produced in mines as compared to 3.27 million metric tons in 2022.
Similarly, lithium production also increased to 180,000 metric tons in 2023 from 146,000 metric tons in 2022. This demand is pushing mining companies to expand their operations, increasing the need for advanced, efficient mining equipment. As a result, manufacturers are investing in specialized equipment to extract these minerals more effectively and sustainably.

Rapid urbanization and infrastructure development in emerging economies such as India, China, and Brazil have increased demand for construction and infrastructure resources. As a result, these countries are experiencing an increase in mining activities to support this growth.
According to Indian Ministry of Mines, the total value of mineral production for 2023-24 has been estimated at around USD 23 billion, an increase of about 2% from the previous year. This growth is driving higher demand for high-efficiency, durable mining equipment that can operate in varied terrain and weather conditions. Manufacturers are responding by creating cost-effective and versatile machinery suited for these emerging markets.
