Focused on large surface mining equipment, Parker Bay’s Database includes 133,000 individual machine listings identifying the manufacturer, model, serial number, ship date, specifications…. Each machine is identified by mine site with additional data on the mine and personnel.
Q3 2025 Mining Equipment Deliveries Hit 4-Year Low (Nov. 9, 2025)
Following the sharp downturn in Q2 shipments (11% lower than Q1 by value), we questioned the longevity of the Q2 decline indicating it might not represent a long-term shift in miners’ equipment requirements, to wit “since equipment shipments are the end result of longer-term capital investment decisions followed by months-long purchasing decisions and subsequent manufacturing schedules, it seems unlikely that the decline in Q2 shipments resulted from the greater global market uncertainty that is impacting other economic sectors.”
But the Q2 decline was followed by a comparable reduction in Q3 deliveries: 12% by volume and 13% by value.
Clients can subscribe to the full Database for all products worldwide or tailor their coverage to only specific products, regions, manufacturers… We work with clients to define the coverage as best meets their requirements.
