Save
Tamil Nadu will create the Tamil Nadu Mineral Resources Development Corporation Limited, a new Public Sector Undertaking under the Companies Act, 2013, to handle mining, extraction, quality upgrading, import, value addition, marketing and sale of minerals. An Integrated Command and Control Centre will track mineral activities in real time, while a unit using drones (UAVs) and satellites will spot illegal mining. A plant fossil park will come up at Gunduperumbedu and Vellarai lakes, thought to be about 60 crore years old. A Detailed Project Report will be prepared for mining tourism centres in abandoned mines and quarries under the PPP model.
