the world, following these, are bornite, covelite, tetrahedrite and enargite. Copper production from oxide ores emanates mainly from malachite, azurite, chrysocolla/dioptase, atacamite, brochanite and several rare minerals. The production of copper ore in the Mosabani group of mines has been stopped and the mining lease was allowed to lapse from 15.06.2004 except Surda mine which was proposed to run through Workers Cooperative Society, in terms of decision taken in tripartite meeting with Ministry of Labour and Ministry of Mines, Government of India. However, the production activities in Surda mine were stopped since June, 2003 due to economic reasons. The mine has started production of copper ore and its beneficiation into copper concentrates from January 2008 in association with an Australian company through its Indian subsidiary India Resources Ltd. (IRL). As mentioned earlier the content of copper in Indian copper ore is very low, when compared with the other major copper producing countries. During the years 2000-01 to 2009-10 the average grade of copper content in the ore produced ranges from 0.92% Cu to 1.90% (Table: 3.2) while the grade of copper ore treated during the same period range in between 0.93% Cu and 1.22% Cu. As it is seen from the table that the maximum production of copper ore was in 2000-01at 3.5 million tonnes and the lowest production of 2.64 million tonnes was recorded in 2005-06. The production in 2009-10 was at 3.23 million tonnes. The major economic copper mineralisation is reported from the states of Rajasthan, Madhya Pradesh and Jharkhand. The major production of ore and concentrate comes from the state of Rajasthan, Madhya Pradesh and Jharkhand. The production of metal is from the states of Rajasthan, Jharkhand, Gujarat and Tamil Nadu. The details of ore, concentrates and metal production is given in Tables: 3.2 to 3.4. The production of copper ore for the last 10 years is given in Table: 3.2 and depicted in Figure-3.2. Table: 3.2- Production of Copper Ore, 2000-01 to 2009-10 Year Production(In tonnes) Grade (%) 2000-01 3,498,270 1.07 2001-02 3,417,967 1.12 2002-03 3,071,293 1.07 2003-04 2,902,972 1.04 2004-05 2,929,074 1.00 2005-06 2,642,706 1.90 2006‐07 3,273, 906 1.02 2007‐08 3,242,371 1.02 2008‐09 3,452,406 0.92 2009‐10 3,227,667 N.A. Presently, the production of copper ore is reported from 3 states namely: Madhya Pradesh (Malanjkhand Copper Project), and Rajasthan (Khetri copper 52
Complex), Jharkhand (Indian Copper Complex). Bhotang and Pacheykhani multimetal mines in Sikkim produced copper ore till 2006-07, since then there was no production reported from these mines. 1. Malanjkhand Copper Project (MCP): This mining project is worked by HCL in Malanjkhand, district Balaghat, Madhya Pradesh. This is the largest open pit mine in the country which is having annual production capacity of 2.00 million tonnes. 2. Khetri Copper Complex (KCC) : The Khetri Copper complex is worked in four mining projects namely Khetri, Kolihan, Chandmari in Jhunjhunu district and Dariba in Alwar district. All these projects were commissioned within a span of two years from 1973 to 1975. Presently, Khetri and Kolihan are the only two projects in operation. The other two projects i.e. Chandmari and Dariba are not in operation since 2002. HCL is also considering a proposal to open a new mine at Banswara in Rajasthan. This project will be commissioned through contract mining with foreign partners. 3. Indian Copper Complex (ICC): Indian Resources Ltd. of Monarch Gold Company Ltd., Australia through its alliance with Hindustan Copper Ltd. has undertaken the mine development of Surda Copper Mine and the present mining capacity is 0.4 million tpy with the introduction of modern mining equipments. 3.3.2 Production of Copper Concentrates The copper ore produced is then subjected to concentrator plants to produce copper concentrates. HCL has a total milling capacity of 5.57 million tpy copper ore for producing copper concentrates. This capacity is distributed in concentrator plants at (i) KCC, Khetrinagar, district Jhunjhunu, Rajasthan, (2.02 million tpy), (ii) ICC, Ghatsila, district East Singhbhum, Jharkhand, (1.55 million tpy) and (iii) MCP Malanjkhand, district Balaghat, Madhya Pradesh capacity 2.00 million tpy. Besides, Sikkim Mining Corporation also has a small capacity to produce copper, lead & zinc concentrates in East Sikkim district however there was no production. The quantity and grade of copper ore treated to produce copper concentrates for last 10 years is given in Table: 3.3.
