Kyanite is a mineral that is used to make refractory goods such as mortars and bricks for use in high-temperature furnaces. It offers heat resistant qualities, making it an important material in the automobile and railroad industries.
The mineral is very difficult to facet due to its excellent cleavage and varying hardness, even within the same crystal. The hardness varies along its different axes. For example, it has a hardness of 4 to 4.5 when cut parallel to its long-axis and has a hardness of 6 to 7.5 when sliced perpendicular to its long-axis. Andalusite and sillimanite are polymorphous with Kyanite. These substances have the same chemical but distinct crystal systems.
Kyanite is widely used as an abrasive in semiconductors and insulators. During the projected period, rising demand for electronic and electrical items is likely to drive up demand for Kyanite.

During the historical period from 2018 to 2022, the global Kyanite market has witnessed a CAGR of 1.6%. The reason behind this slow growth rate is attributed to the impact of COVID-19 pandemic on the global mining and mineral market, that shrunken the demand and extraction activities of related minerals.
As per the latest FMI analysis, the global market is anticipated to grow with a steady growth rate of 3.2% during the assessment period. The demand from electrical and electronics industry supported by its rising applications in jewellery, and automotive industries is set to drive the market.
According to FMI data, around 85 percent of Kyanite minerals consumption is for the production of refractories - materials capable of withstanding high temperatures, often in excess of 1,000 degrees Celsius. The iron and steel industry consumes 50 to 60 percent of all refractories globally. More examples include refractory forms, firebrick, and insulating brick.
Kyanite as an abrasive in electronics and electronics industries is elevating the market demand
The growing use of Kyanite as an abrasive in the electronic and electrical industries is propelling the market forward. Robotics and automation are rising trends in the electronics market, which has increased demand for insulating materials. The emergence of the digital economy and technological advancements have propelled the growth of the electrical and electronic industries, which is expected to fuel the worldwide Kyanite market.
Jewellery applications to create lucrative opportunities in market
Kyanite is increasingly being used in jewellery applications. Faceted Kyanite makes beautiful stone gemstones. These stones have variable hardness, and attractive colours. Their colours vary from greenish blue in daylight to purple under incandescent light. Today, many jewellery makers are marketing mineral stone made earning, pendants, and brooches. These specific applications of Kyanite are growing in India and European countries where, demand for gemstones is growing with growing population.

Blue Kyanite is more abundant than its other forms
Blue type of Kyanite is most abundant in nature. They are usually found in continuous color range between clear blue and dark blue. Apart from their regular use in refractories and casting industries, blue Kyanite stones are also used in jewellery. The market for blue Kyanite is expected to grow with a higher CAGR of 3.4% during the estimated period of 2023 to 2033.
Kyanite to experience robust demand from end-use industries during assessment period
Kyanite's qualities and distinguishing characteristics make it a popular mineral in a variety of sectors. Its high heat resistance makes it an appropriate material for railway brake shoes and clutch face. Government investment in railroad growth to sustain railway freight, particularly in emerging nations, has increased the use of Kyanite in the railroad business.
Refractory, ceramics, electrical and electronics, and automotive are just a few of the other industries that have steadily increased demand for Kyanite in recent years. With expanding population and urbanisation, the mineral is expected to have a strong growth prognosis in end-use industries.
Casting segment consumes the largest share owing to high demand from iron and steel industries
Casting segment is dominating the global consumption of Kyanite as compared to rest of the applications. This higher consumption is attributed to the demand from iron and steel industries that use Kyanite while casting of metals. Kyanite has remarkable property to undergo expansion on heat treatment.
This allows the addition of specific amount of Kyanite during casting of iron and steel for maintaining the volume of finished product on heating. Depending upon particle size, and heating conditions, the mineral can expand to up to two times its original volume when heated. These application of Kyanite are expected to grow with the growth in metal processing industries.
High abundance of Kyanite in the USA makes North America a leading region in production
The North America is a leading producer and consumer of Kyanite mineral across the globe. The USA is a key country accounting for more than 90% of the North American production. The mineral is experiencing a high demand from automotive, railroad, electric and electronics industries. Application in refractories is estimated to remain high in the region. The rebound in mining industry after the COVID-19 pandemic is fuelling the production of Kyanite in North America.
High demand from end-use industries makes south Asia a prominent region
After the North America, South Asia region stands at second position in overall production of Kyanite mineral. India and Nepal are expected to lead the production of Kyanite in the forecast period. High abundance of the mineral in Indian states and rising activities to extract them for diverse applications is driving the production across the country. On the other hand, India is hub for steel industries and refractories.
Kyanite is consumed on a larger extent in these industries that is boosting the demand across the country. The Kyanite mineral that found in Nepal region has the highest quality among other occurrences. With consistent growth in demand for high quality kyanite south asia is anticipated to witness robust growth opportunities over the upcoming assessment period.
