This is going to fulfill our growing copper needs. With this extraordinary step in the copper mining sector, the Adani Group will also be able to get rid of the controversies of Adani coal import which have been ongoing for quite a while now. The global conglomerate will also be able to win back the trust of the customers post the ongoing controversies. AN OVERVIEW OF KUTCH COPPER Kutch Copper which is a subsidiary of Adani Enterprises commissioned the first unit of its copper refinery project in Mundra earlier in 2024. This allowed the company to solidify its position in the copper mining industry. Adani Enterprises is planning on making investments worth 1.2 billion USD to build a copper smelter having an initial capacity of 0.5 MTPA. A second phase of the project is also planned. This is going to double the capacity of the project to 1 MTPA. Upon successful completion, Kutch Copper will accommodate the world's largest custom copper smelter at a single location. It would boost our country's copper capacity. It is going to attend to the ever-growing needs of copper in the upcoming years. The Adani Group will also be able to rise above the ongoing controversies of the Adani coal import.

  5. This project is the Adani Group's first greenfield refinery project to have been built at Mundra. The project also marks the Adani Group's debut in the metal and material industry. This project has been installed with state-of-the-art technology and digitalization so that the ESG performance standards can be met. The project has also created thousands of job opportunities for the people. The technology used by Kutch Copper is engineered to have the lowest carbon footprint. One-tenth of the plant's area is designated as a greenbelt space. 15% of the capital for the project has also been allocated for environmental protection. To minimize ecological impact, the plant has implemented a zero-liquid discharge model. It also uses desalinated water for its various operations. The plant also recycles treated wastewater within its various processes to reduce the use of water. CONCLUSION By entering into a deal with Kutch Copper, the Adani Group will be able to increase the availability of copper in the country. Along with Adani coal import, the company will also start importing copper. This will offer its business extraordinary growth. Very soon, the Adani Group will also be able to take up the position of being one of the biggest players in the coal mining sector.
