Abstract

The article focuses on Nalco's plans to commence operations at its Pottangi bauxite mines in Odisha by June next year, aiming to enhance its mining capacity and expand its integrated aluminium business. The company has selected Dilip Buildcon as the lowest bidder for the development and operation of the mine, with progress being made towards the targeted start date. Additionally, Nalco is increasing alumina output at its Damanjodi refinery by installing a fifth stream, which will add one million tonnes per annum (MTPA) to its existing capacity. The Odisha government has granted a 50-year mining lease for nearly 698 hectares at Pottangi, ensuring a steady supply of bauxite for the expanded refinery. [Extracted from the article]
