Mining Machinery Imports Fail to Meet Domestic Need

Iran’s import of mining machinery is minimal compared to the global average.
A total of $34.5 million of mining machinery were imported to Iran during the first four months of the current fiscal year (March 21-July 22), registering a 3.2% rise compared with last year’s corresponding period.
According to the latest report released by Tehran’s Chamber of Commerce, Industries, Mines and Agriculture, about $19 million of the total sum pertained to import of used excavators, registering a 600% year-on-year rise.
