Steel producers in the region are expanding output in order to benefit from the anticipated upsurge in demand. Qatar Steel and Saudi Arabia’s Al-Rahji are just two looking to expand production. The mining and metals special report will analyse the supply and demand balance in the Middle East and the investments in new steel production being planned.

Gold prices soared to historic levels in 2011 as traders look for safe havens away from volatile currencies and commodities. Exploiting gold deposits has never been so attractive. The report will examine which countries have the biggest reserves, current product levels, planned investment projects and forthcoming licensing auctions. Saudi Arabia already operates five mines in the west of the country, which have a production of about 150,000 ounces a year (o/y) and employ about 1,000 people. The plan is to increase production to 400,000 o/y by 2015 and gold resources to 20 million ounces by 2020. In global production terms, this would raise the kingdom to 22nd place from its current 35th position.
