Boston, MA -- (SBWIRE) -- 01/18/2016 -- Technavio's market research analyst predicts the Brazilian mining industry to witness a steady growth at a CAGR of around 5% during the forecast period. The increased demand for minerals globally is driving the growth of this market. Brazil is rich in mineral ores and is one of the chief exporters of minerals. For instance, China is heavily dependent on Brazil for iron ore for its steel production. The growth of the global automobile industry is also creating a demand for various products thereby driving the Brazilian mining industry.

The difficulty in procuring licenses for mining is expected to deter the market growth during the forecast period. Brazil has a very complex regulatory framework for the mining sector. Approval processes and jurisdiction is divided among the federal, state, and municipal governments. Mineral exploration licenses are approved by the DNPM at the federal government level, and development concessions are issued by the MME. The licenses are renewed on the basis of the final exploration report.
