Presently, the concentrator situated at ICC, Jharkhand is closed because the mines in Jharkhand which were supplying ore to this plant are closed due to uneconomic operations. The production of copper concentrates during 2000-01 to 2009-10 is given in Table: 3.4 and depicted in Figure-3.3.

Subsequently, two producers of primary refined copper namely, Hindalco Industries Ltd. (Birla Copper) at Dahej, Dist. Bharuch, Gujarat and Sterlite Industries at Tuticorin, Tamil Nadu, based on imported copper concentrates came on the scene. Besides, Jhagadia Copper Ltd. (formerly SWIL Ltd.) had started a scrap based plant at Jhagadia, Bharuch, district Gujarat. HCL has also a plant of CCWR (Continuous Cast Wire Rods) which is based on copper cathodes at Taloja, Raigad district, Maharashtra. The plantwise installed capacities of copper producers are given in Table: 3.5 and depicted in Figure-3.4. Table: 3.5- Plant wise Installed Capacities of Copper Smelters, 2008-09 (In tonnes) Sl.
