Gypsum exports surpass 14 million tons
Oman's gypsum ore exports reached approximately 14.02 million tons in 2025. The ministry continues to organize and develop the mining sector to maximize added value from gypsum ore, which is one of the most prominent mineral resources in the country. Gypsum is primarily produced in Dhofar Governorate through 36 quarries and 5 factories, supported by substantial reserves and high quality that enable strong competitiveness in regional and global markets. The ministry also focuses on transforming raw materials into local products such as drywall panels, fertilizer, and powder to enhance local content and expand value chains, along with improving marketing and export mechanisms through the Omani Mineral Trading Company, established to oversee export operations and increase returns for the national economy.
