Industrial Uses:

 Drilling applications :                 As weighting agent during drilling of Oil and Gas wells.

 Other use :                              In the paper, rubber and miscellaneous industries; as a filler or extender in   cloth, ink, and plastics products; in radiography ("barium milkshake"); as getter (scavenger) alloys in   vacuum tubes; deoxidizer for copper; lubricant for anode rotors in X-ray tubes; spark-plug alloys as     absorbent in dynamite. Also used to make an expensive white pigment.

 Grinding Facility:

 BME following grinding mills, for grinding of barite ore extracted from Gunga Mines:

 1. MTM-160, 100,000 (TPY) production capacity.
 2. BM-10,        50,000 (TPY) production capacity.
 3. MTW-175: 150,000 (TPY) production capacity

 Quality Control:

BME has own API certified quality control laboratory for testing & analysis of both barite powder and Ore,  however, BME also carries out 3rd party testing from (SGS Pakistan (Pvt) Limited & Qualitest laboratory Karachi) for cross confirmation of test results and Administration control.

 Storage Capacity

 BME has its own storage facility at Khuzdar.
