Mining, quarrying and minerals in Saudi Arabia covers metal and phosphate mines, thousands of building materials quarries, and the equipment, safety gear, processing plant and industrial minerals behind them. This page explains the five product families, where mining demand sits in the Kingdom, the Mining Investment Law, licensing, explosives and environmental rules checked in 2026, and how to choose a supplier from the listings below.
Yes, in the wider region, though not in the city. The Madinah province has several mining sites and reserve areas. Mahd adh-Dhahab, an old gold mining area in Madinah province worked by the Saudi Mining Company, a Ma'aden operation, is the best known. Wikipedia describes mining there in the Abbasid period and a modern operation since 1936. It also carries a note, flagged as lacking citation, that low-grade gold remains and the mine would close in 2023, so treat its current status as something to confirm with Ma'aden. The city itself is a buying and support base for mining, quarrying and minerals activity.
Support work for the region's sites draws on mining PPE, gas detection for mines, mine dewatering pumps and mining conveyors. Local construction needs aggregates, so quarry operators look at stone crushers and screening plants and mobile crushing plants. Industrial minerals such as gypsum and calcium carbonate feed building materials, paint and plastics makers, some of which are in the Madinah industrial city.
Madinah is modest next to the phosphate and bauxite belt in the north and east of the kingdom. For heavy underground and open pit fleets, Ma'aden and contractors buy for the site, usually from Riyadh or the Eastern Province. In Madinah itself you will find safety suppliers, pump dealers and quarry contractors rather than large equipment yards.
Check any quarry or mining licence with the Ministry of Industry and Mineral Resources before buying plant. Remote sites need spare wear parts held in stock, so ask who delivers and how fast. Send a specification via post a requirement to compare dealers.
Remember that many suppliers quote ex-works from Riyadh or Jeddah, so compare delivered prices to the site, and ask whether the dealer can supply operator training for crushers and pumps.
Madinah is first a city of pilgrimage and visitors, so its industry is concentrated in a planned estate rather than spread through the city. That estate is Madinah Industrial City, run by MODON, the Saudi Authority for Industrial Cities and Technology Zones. Dar Al Riyadh lists a MODON project of 28 ready-built factories there, with works dated 2022 to 2024, covering the buildings plus roads, water supply, firefighting and sewage networks. MODON also said in 2024 that two industrial cities in Madinah were among the most attractive in the Kingdom for food and beverage manufacturing in 2023. Inside the city, the other large building sites are tied to hospitality. Knowledge Economic City, in its Islamic World District, is a 6.8 million square metre development, and Marriott announced three hotels there in December 2024. Rua Al Madinah, east of the Prophet's Mosque, was announced in August 2022 on 1.5 million square metres with a target of 47,000 new hotel rooms by 2030.
Madinah has no seaport of its own. Sea cargo normally comes in through the Red Sea at Yanbu, the nearest industrial port, and then moves by truck. In December 2025 Mawani signed a contract with a logistics operator for an integrated logistics centre of 120,490 square metres at Yanbu Commercial Port, worth over SAR 29 million. Prince Mohammad bin Abdulaziz International Airport handles passengers and some goods; in 2023 Arab News reported date-shipment permits issued through it. Argaam reported in 2018 that the airport reached 12 million passengers a year of capacity after a second phase in 2014, with a third phase aimed at 16 million by 2037. The Haramain high-speed railway links Madinah with Jeddah and Makkah, and Knowledge Economic City plans a connection to its station. The line is passenger rail, so freight still travels by road.
MODON handles factory land and ready units in the industrial city. Building permits come through the Madinah municipality, fire and life safety approvals through the General Directorate of Civil Defense, and electricity connections through Saudi Electricity Company. The Prophet's Mosque cooling plant is operated by the General Authority for the Care of the Affairs of the Prophet's Mosque. Medical products need approval from the Saudi Food and Drug Authority. Confirm each current step on the authority's own platform.
Hospitality, facilities and cooling lead demand because of the visitor economy. Healthcare follows, with King Salman Medical City of 1,246 beds. Date packers and food plants buy processing and packaging machinery, and farms supply a date crop that Arab News counted at 8.3 million palms in the province in 2023. Heavy oil, gas and petrochemical demand sits mainly at Yanbu and in the Eastern Province.
