The JSW Steel Limited, a flagship company of the JSW Group, has achieved a major milestone with its iron-ore dispatch surpassing 1 lakh tonnes on a single day from its newly acquired mines in Odisha.
Notably, the JSW Steel acquired four iron ore mines - Narayanposi, Ganua, Nuagaon and Jajang in the districts of Sundergarh and Keonjhar in Odisha in February, 2019 having known reserves of 1,131 million tonne. The company went into mining operations in July last year amidst all supply chain disruptions caused due to Covid-19 pandemic but with sheer determination and abiding all pandemic norms, the team at JSW progressively climbed up the production targets month on month to achieve the coveted milestone in a short span of little over than six months time.
Once operational with full capacity, these mines are expected to produce around 36 MT per annum.
