consumption in General Engineering has been taken as 7% of the total all India consumption of copper. F. Others Industries Including Process Industries Others industries including process industries consumes about 16% of the total copper consumption in the country. The process industry uses copper in making different types of chemicals, alloys, compounds etc. and the making decorative and utility items. i) Cooking Gas : Due to discoveries of large Natural Gas deposits within the country, the Government is pursuing a policy of substitution of Liquified Petroleum Gas which is imported. With this, the method of delivery would change from Cylinders to Piping, giving opportunities for Copper tubes in the last mile. In addition to this, copper and its alloys having anti microbial properties. This should be exploited fully and completely and now emerging applications of copper may further be explored. On the basis of above discussion, the projection of demand have been attempted by assuming the growth in sectors namely Electrical and Telecommunications as 9% followed by General Engineering (8%), Transport( 8%), Consumer Durables (7%), Building and Constructions (7%) and Other Industries including Processing Industries as (7%). The growth has been calculated considering an apparent consumption in 2008-09 at 496 thousand tonnes as base year. The same is given in Table 6.4. Table 6.4: Demand Forecast of Copper Metal as per Sector-wise Growth, 2010-11 to 2024-25 (Base Year 2008-09 Apparent Demand of 496 thousand tonnes) (In thousand tonnes) Year Industry Total Electrical & Telecommunication at 9% growth General Engineering at 8% growth Transport at 8% growth Consumer Durables at 7% growth Building& Construction at 7% growth Process Industries & Others at 16% growth 2010-11 330 35 46 40 40 107 598 2011-12 360 38 50 43 43 124 658 2012-13 392 41 54 46 46 144 723 2016-17 553 56 73 60 60 261 1063 2020-21 780 76 99 78 78 472 1583 2024-25 1101 104 135 102 102 853 2295 Note: Based on Sector wise share of Electrical and Telecommunication-56%, General Engg.- 6%, Transport-8%, Consumer Durables-7%, Building & Construction-7% and Process Industries and Others-16%. 102
It is seen from the Table 6.4 that the apparent demand has increased from 496 thousand tonnes in 2009-10 to 1 million tonnes in 2016-17, the terminal year of 12 th Five Year Plan and with the same growth rate it has reached 2.3 million tonnes in 2024-25. As seen from the above table, the total apparent demand of copper will be 723 thousand tonnes in 2012-13. The present capacity of about one million tonnes is able to cater to the demand upto 2012-13 if all the plants start production with their full capacity. There will be demand of concentrates which are presently being met by imports by Sterlite and Hindalco from their captive sources abroad as well as from open markets. HCL is also importing concentrate to feed its smelter. 3. Judgmental Analysis In all the three cases the demand forecast during 2024-25 of 3.1 million tonnes is on higher side and is not considered. However, the demand based on the sectorial growth of 2.3 million tonnes is realistic and hence considered. This demand is also having implications from sectoral growth of copper consuming industries. Whereas on the basis of GDP growth of 9%, the demand of 2.0 million tonnes is slightly on lower side hence not considered. Moreover it is expected that the GDP growth of the country may increase from 9% to two digit in near future. 6.2 FUTURE SUPPLY SCENARIO 1. Resources Resources of copper in the country are mainly located in the states of Rajasthan, Madhya Pradesh and Jharkhand which together accounted for about 93% of the total resources available at 1394 million tonnes with a metal content of 11.40 million tonnes. 2. Production of Copper Ore HCL is the only company in the country producing copper ore from its mines located in Rajasthan, Madhya Pradesh and Jharkhand. In the year 2000- 01, the production of copper ore was 3.49 million tonnes with a grade of 1.07% Cu, with wide fluctuation during the period 2000-01 to 2007-08 the production reached up to 3.45 million tonnes in 2008-09 with a grade of 0.92% Cu. However, there was a fall in production in 2009-10 by 6.50% at 3.23 million tonnes as compared to the previous year. The GSI, MECL and other agencies are exploring the possible locations of copper mineralisation. As per Hindustan Copper Limited estimates the total copper mineralisation area in the country is spread over an area of 60,000 sq.km, out of which only 20,000 sq.km. area has been explored till date and balance 40,000 sq.km area is awaiting exploration. It is presumed that the exploration in the balance area will ease out the pressure in indigenous supply of ore. A comprehensive scheme is to be redrawn for re-exploration of the existing deposits as well as exploring new and virgin areas for establishing copper resource. 103
