The forecast for Germany's international container transport volume of metal ores, peat, uranium, thorium, and other mining and quarrying products shows stability with modest growth. From 2024 to 2025, the volume remains steady at 37.0 thousand metric tons. A slight increase is projected from 2026, reaching 38.0 thousand metric tons through 2028.
Assuming a constant volume in 2023, this represents no year-on-year growth for 2024 and 2025, with a 2.7% increase in 2026. The compound annual growth rate (CAGR) is minimal due to the stable nature of demand and supply dynamics for raw materials.
Future trends to watch for include:
- Changes in global demand for metal ores driven by technological advancements and renewable energy initiatives.
- Potential shifts in geopolitical dynamics impacting trade routes and costs.
- Environmental regulations influencing mining and export volume.
