India’s production of iron ore surged by 7.4 per cent to 116 million tonnes (MT) during April-August period of FY 2024-25 (FY25) compared to 108 MT registered in the corresponding period of previous fiscal. Iron ore accounts for about 70 per cent of the total mineral production in terms of value.
The production of manganese ore jumped by 15.4 per cent to 1.5 MT during the April-August period as compared to 1.3 MT in the previous financial year. In the non-ferrous metal sector, primary aluminium production rose to 17.49 lakh tonnes (LT) during April-August from 17.26 LT in the year-ago period. During the same comparative period, refined copper production has grown by 5.8 per cent from 1.91 LT to 2.02 LT.
India is the second largest aluminium producer, among top 10 producer of refined copper and fourth largest iron ore producer in the world. Continued growth in production of iron ore in the current financial year reflects the robust demand conditions in the user industries.
