Both local and foreign processing industries increased their demand, with Barite mining by-products finding use in cement production. However, overseas demand and rising energy costs led to a drop in domestic Barite ore prices.

The barite market is projected to surpass the valuation of US$ 2.1 Bn by 2031. However, it is found that the quality and purity of barite are highly variable, and this influences the volume of barite that can be extracted from individual deposits.

The global Barite market stood at approximately 7.9 million tonnes in 2023 and is anticipated to grow at a CAGR of 3.45% during the forecast period until 2034. Barite, a mineral primarily composed of barium sulfate (BaSO4), is a versatile substance with numerous industrial applications.

Barite increases the hydrostatic pressure of the drilling mud allowing it to compensate for high-pressure zones experienced during drilling, thus suppressing high formation pressures and preventing blowouts.
