Hindustan Copper Ltd entered into a strategic partnership with NTPC Mining Limited to advance the exploration and development of copper and other critical mineral resources. This collaboration is designed to enhance India’s resource and energy security by promoting joint investments in mining, processing, and related technological capabilities. As global demand for critical minerals grows due to their importance in renewable energy, electric mobility, and advanced manufacturing, such alliances help position India to meet future industrial requirements. The agreement, signed in Kolkata in the presence of senior leadership from both organizations, marks a significant step toward strengthening domestic mineral self-reliance.
