Hindustan Zinc Limited is gearing up to venture into potash mining in Rajasthan, with the objective of lessening India’s dependency on potash imports. The company is diversifying its portfolio beyond zinc, lead, and silver to include strategic critical minerals. In addition to acquiring a gold block in Rajasthan and a tungsten block in Andhra Pradesh, Hindustan Zinc has also witnessed a notable surge in net profit. This move signifies the company’s commitment to bolstering India’s self-sufficiency in essential minerals while simultaneously expanding its foothold in the mining sector.
