- India’s gold production is expected to receive a significant boost with the Jonnagiri gold project, the first private gold mine of India.
- When the mine begins operating at full scale, it is set to facilitate the generation of nearly 750kgs of gold each year. The production is expected to increase gradually.
- As gold is one of India’s major imports, this facility is expected to reduce the country’s dependence on imports, contributing to self- sufficiency.
- The mine, situated in Andhra Pradesh, is being developed by Geomysore Services India Limited. Deccan Gold Mines Limited, a company engaged in exploring gold, is a shareholder in the company.
