Composed primarily of metamorphic and igneous rocks, the Arabian Shield is rich in mineral resources, Its unique geological characteristics have made it a focal point for mining activities and geological studies.
The Saudi government has invested heavily in exploring and developing the Arabian Shield's mineral potential, aiming to diversify the national economy beyond oil.
