This represents a 53 per cent increase compared to the 127 projects seen in 2023-24, according to the mines ministry's year-end report.
This year, the ministry not only accelerated exploration activities but also made strides in auctions. It concluded 2024 with the auctioning of 24-48.98 per cent—critical mineral blocks out of the 49 it has offered for bidding so far. These include key resources like lithium, graphite, phosphorite, and glauconite, spread across various regions of India.
"Out of 48 blocks put to e-auction, 24 have been successfully auctioned, including four mining lease (ML) and 20 composite licence (CL) blocks," the mines ministry had said in November.
