The textile industry in particular continues to decline, suffering from competition from clothing and cheap product imports. Mining dominates the industrial sector, the country has abundant mineral resources such as platinum, chrome, diamonds, gold, nickel, coal, iron, etc. Outside the mining sector, the main industries are timber, chemicals and agribusiness. Key industrial players include Anglo American Platinum Ltd., Impala Platinum Holdings Ltd., Rio Tinto Plc, Aquarius Platinum and British American Tobacco Zimbabwe Ltd.
