Vedanta Ltd. is looking to partner with State governments to set up a copper smelter complex in a coastal region in India. The investment in the complex could be around ₹10,000 crore and provide employment to nearly 10,000 people, says an Expression of Interest (EoI) issued by the company to set up the copper smelter complex.
The EoI says that the copper smelter of 500 KPA will require a footprint of around 1,000 acres in proximity to port along with logistics connectivity with conveyor/corridor of rail and road to handle 5 mtpa material movements on both in-bound and out-bound sides.
