history

Saudi Arabia is an old mining region, so gold was mined in Mahd adh-Dhahab (German: cradle of gold ) as early as 1000 AD.

Locations

Maʿaden holds numerous exploration licenses , only a few of which are currently being developed. In Ras al-Khair on the Persian Gulf there is a phosphate and an aluminum plant as well as a seawater desalination plant . In Medina there is a factory for (caustic and dead burned) magnesium oxide (magnesia). A phosphate plant (MWASPC) is currently being built in Wa'ad Al Shamal in collaboration with SABIC and Mosaic . The Jebel Sajid copper mine is jointly operated with Barrick Gold .

The bulk raw materials (phosphate, bauxite) are transported on the north-south railway line . Since gold mining is water-intensive, Maʿaden built a 430 km pipeline from Ta'if to the south into the gold mining region.
