India Unearths New Gold Mines in Odisha, Madhya Pradesh and Andhra Pradesh

 India Unearths New Gold Mines in Odisha, Madhya Pradesh and Andhra Pradesh


WRITTEN BY Ved Kumar | Updated: Nov 18, 2025, 06:08 AM 

A new landmark has been reached in India’s mining story as fresh gold reserves have been discovered across three significant states — Odisha, Madhya Pradesh and Andhra Pradesh — promising to reshape the nation’s reliance on imports and bolster its domestic resource base. 

According to a report by SBI Research titled “Coming of (a Turbulent) Age: The Great Global Gold Rush”, the discoveries in Odisha involve blocks such as Deogarh, Keonjhar and Mayurbhanj, where preliminary estimates indicate around 1,685 kg of gold ore have been identified. 

In Madhya Pradesh, drilling and exploration near Jabalpur have turned up gold-bearing deposits at a scale described by analysts as "hundreds of thousands of tonnes", making it potentially one of the country’s most significant gold finds in recent memory. 

Meanwhile, in Andhra Pradesh’s Kurnool district, India’s first large private gold mine is expected to commence operations with an estimated annual output of around 750 kg of gold. 

This tri-state discovery arrives at a time when India remains heavily reliant on gold imports: each year the country consumes over 800 tonnes of gold, accounting for approximately 26 % of global demand, while domestic production continues to lag far behind. 

Experts say this new windfall could offer several strategic advantages for India’s economy and trade balance. Reduced dependence on imports, improved current account positioning and increased mining sector investment are among the key potential benefits. 

On the policy front, this breakthrough also underscores how resource-rich states like Odisha and Madhya Pradesh are emerging as critical nodes in the country’s mineral strategy, not just in terms of extraction but also infrastructure, employment and regional development. 

Of course, challenges remain: proof of viability, environmental clearances, mine auctions and actual operationalisation will determine how much of this potential translates into real output. But as one analyst put it: “The gold rush is no longer just metaphorical for India.”

  GABRIEL INDIA RESIZES JOINT-VENTURE PLAY WITH INALFA FOR SUNROOF  SYSTEMS  written & Designed by Ved kumar  Gabriel India Limited’s board has approved a revamped joint venture agreement with Inalfa Roof Systems Group B.V. for their sunroof-systems business. Under the new structure, the venture — now named IGSSPL — will see Gabriel India hold 65% while Inalfa retains 35%, reversing the earlier 51:49 proposal. This change comes after the application for a PN3 approval was rejected by the Indian Ministry of Heavy Industries in August 2024, prompting the re-structure.
