Global Solid Sodium Cyanide Market Strategic Research Report

Scope of the Report

The global Solid Sodium Cyanide market size is predicted to grow from US$ 1,625 million in 2025 to US$ 2,244 million in 2032; it is expected to grow at a CAGR of 4.4% from 2026 to 2032.

In 2025, global Solid Sodium Cyanide production reached approximately 720 k tons, with an average global market price of around US$2,308 per ton. Solid Sodium Cyanide (NaCN) is a highly toxic, inorganic compound that appears as a white, water-soluble solid. It is primarily used in industrial applications, especially in gold and silver mining, where it helps extract precious metals through the cyanidation process.

Orica, Draslovka, Taekwang Industrial, Tongsuh Petrochemical, and Hebei Chengxin Group are the top five manufacturers in the global solid sodium cyanide market, collectively accounting for about 48% of the global market share in 2025. Among them, Orica is the largest manufacturer of solid sodium cyanide, with a global revenue share of around 14% in 2025. In February 2024, Orica expanded its mining chemicals business by acquiring Cyanco, a U.S.-based leader in sodium cyanide manufacturing and distribution. Cyanco is a global producer and distributor of high-quality solution and solid sodium cyanide, ranking among the top worldwide in both production and sales volume.

Solid sodium cyanide dominates the sodium cyanide market because it is easier to transport over long distances and store compared with the liquid form. In terms of product type, purity of 98% and above represents the most important segment, accounting for about 93% of global revenue in 2025.

By application, the mining industry is the largest application market and the core driver of demand for solid sodium cyanide. In 2025, the mining sector accounted for about 73% of the market, and it is expected to grow at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 4.33% from 2026 to 2032, slightly higher than the overall growth rate of the global market.
