CiDi targets overseas growth for autonomous mining equipment

Hong Kong-listed CiDi is widening overseas deployments of its autonomous mining equipment.

The company will scale up partially automated excavators in Australia this year and is bidding for contracts in the Middle East, South America and Europe.

CiDi expects overseas markets to account for a double-digit share of revenue next year.

Its 2025 revenue reached RMB884.8 million, more than double the prior year, while its fleet grew to over 1,700 vehicles.

The equipment now operates at 30 mines and quarries, underscoring CiDi’s push beyond China into global mining automation.
