Based on the forecast data, Italy's domestic extraction of chalk and dolomite demonstrates a steady downward trend from 2024 to 2028, with an annual reduction in volume each year. Starting from 0.019 metric tons per capita in 2024, the extraction decreases to 0.014 by 2028, reflecting a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) that indicates a consistent negative growth. The decline suggests efforts in sustainability or changes in industrial demand.

Future trends to watch include:

Potential shifts in industrial strategies that could influence the pace of extraction.
Environmental policies that may further decrease extraction rates.
Market demands that could spur investments in alternative materials or extraction efficiencies.
