Riyadh - Mubasher: Eng. Abdullah Al Shamrani, CEO of the Saudi Geological Survey, said that the year 2021 witnessed the launch of the geological survey initiative to discover the Arabian Shield region and the wealth it contains.
He added in special statements to "Information Direct" that the survey work is still ongoing, and 90% of the region's wealth has been discovered, with only 10% remaining.
Al-Shamrani explained that we now have information about 400 thousand square kilometers, 65% of the area of the Arabian Shield, and the remaining 10% of its area will be completed by the end of 2025.
Al-Shamrani confirmed that a strategy was launched to discover what remains of the "sedimentary cover" area, to be similar to the Arabian Shield area, to achieve the greatest possible benefit for the national economy and the Saudi citizen in the end.
