  4. Give us a brief overview of the heavy minerals market in India? What is its size? HMM industry comprises mainly of beach minerals Ilmenite, Zircon, Rutile, Garnet, Sillimanite and Leucoxene. These minerals also include ones with high specific gravity, such as titanium and rare earths found only in Odisha, Andhra Pradesh, Kerala, Maharashtra and Tamil Nadu. India has nearly 35 per cent of world deposits but contributes only 4 percent of global production. The total beach sand resources in India are at 942.58 million tonnes. http://vvmineralmining.wordpress.com

  5. How much does heavy minerals constitute in the total mining done in India? The Heavy Minerals Mining industry constitutes a paltry two per cent of the entire mining done in India. Although India possesses the world’s largest reserves of ‘Heavy Mineral sands’ [~ 25- 28 per cent], yet its exploitation is low [~5- 6 per cent]. http://vvmineral-mining.blogspot.in
