Orissa Manganese & Minerals Limited (OMML) is a 100 per cent subsidiary of Adhunik Metaliks Limited, which is the flagship company of the Adhunik Group. OMML is engaged in the business of exploration, development, mining and processing of mineral assets. The Company has valuable merchant resources of iron ore and manganese ore in Jharkhand and Orissa, which are available for sale in the open market. These mines represent 'textbook deposits', which is the industry's way of saying that they represent an ideal balance of unmistakable ore evidence, ore richness and easy accessibility (low mine-strip ratio).
The Company has six manganese ore mines in Orissa and one iron ore mine in Jharkhand. The complement of manganese ore and iron ore deposits - a rare combination- positions the Company among the few leading global mining firms. The Company's strategy centres around optimum exploitation of the wealth inherent in its mines, that ensures value addition, utilisation of waste/ rejects for value maximisation and infrastructure creation for long term and sustainable cost benefits.
OMML is currently operating in Ghatkuri iron ore mines in Jharkhand (near Gua) and three manganese ore mines in Koira, Orissa. However, the Company's major operations are undertaken in Ghatkuri iron ore mines and Patmunda manganese ore mines.
