National Mineral Exploration Policy (Non-Fuel and Non-Coal Minerals): base paper

The Ministry of Mines has prepared the base paper for National Mineral Exploration Policy (Non-Fuel and Non-Coal Minerals) for enabling auction of the mineral concessions as provided under the MMDR Amendment Act, 2015. The NMEP has to spell out the strategy and action plan that the Government will adopt for ensuring comprehensive exploration of India’s (non-fuel and non-coal) mineral resources. It will have to cover the various actions needed as prerequisites to exploration and thereby help in sustainable and efficient exploitation of India’s mineral resources.
