DMCC Chief Urges Including Fertiliser Minerals in Global Critical Mineral Frameworks
DMCC Executive Chairman Ahmed Bin Sulayem stated that fertiliser components such as potash, phosphate rock, and sulphur must be treated as critical minerals for food security. Writing in Gulf News, he highlighted Dubai's trading infrastructure and proposed applying the Dubai Critical Minerals Standard to fertiliser inputs. The UAE remains the world's leading exporter of sulphur, with exports previously projected to reach 11.4 million tonnes annually by 2029.
