(NMDC), Country\u2019s largest Iron Ore producer, a CPSE under Ministry of Steel signed a MoU on Wednesday with IIT Kharagpur for drone-based mineral exploration. NMDC has been exploring minerals for six decades for a wide range of minerals such as Copper, Rock phosphate, Limestone, magnesite, Diamond, Tungsten and Beach sands amongst others right from the reconnaissance G4 level to the detailed G1 Level of UNFC.<br \/>\nThe MoU for \u2018Drone-Based Mineral Exploration\u2019 was signed on a virtual platform which was attended by Shri Sumit Deb, CMD; Shri Amitava Mukherjee, Director (Finance); Shri Somnath Nandi, Director (Technical); Shri D.K.Mohanty, Director (Production) from NMDC and professors from IIT Kharagpur. The said MoU was signed on behalf of NMDC by Shri DK Mohanty, Director (Production) and on behalf of IIT Kharagpur by Prof. S.P.Sharma, HoD, Department of Geology &amp; Geophysics and Prof. Samir K Pal, HoD, Department of Mining Engineering.<br \/>\nShri Sumit Deb, CMD, NMDC said, \u201cNMDC would be the first CPSE in India to conduct Drone-based Geophysical Surveys and Hyperspectral Studies for Mineral Exploration in the country. NMDC\u2019s tie up with IIT-Kharagpur will open a new chapter and set a benchmark in the field of mineral exploration for the nation.\u201d<br \/>\nNMDC is conducting exploration for various minerals in the State of Madhya Pradesh and also in the Beloda-Belmundi block in Chhattisgarh for Diamonds. NMDC is also the first CPSE to use Space Geophysics in Central Indian Diamond Province and the first to use online monitoring of exploration of data on the BHUVAN platform. NMDC is increasingly relying on technological innovation and digitalization of its database related to exploration and mining.<br \/>\nWith the launch of a policy on Drones, the Government has taken the first step to regulate and monitor drone usage and operations in India which are currently being used in the fields of agriculture, urban planning, forestry, mining, disaster management, surveillance, transport etc.<br \/>\nNMDC and IIT Kharagpur would develop spectral products, methods and algorithms for exploration using the Drone (UAV) for mining. The collaboration between NMDC and IIT Kharagpur would further lead to the development of software spectral tools for mineral excavation and capacity building programs on mining technology.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"entry-title\"><a href=\"https:\/\/newsmakhani.com\/raksha-mantri-inaugurates-flight-control-system-integration-complex-constructed-by-drdo-in-record-45-days-using-in-house-hybrid-technology-in-bengaluru\/\" rel=\"bookmark\">READ MORE :-\u00a0 Raksha Mantri inaugurates Flight Control System Integration complex, constructed by DRDO in record 45 days using in-house hybrid technology, in Bengaluru<\/a><\/h3>\n<p><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\u0915\u094d\u0937\u092e\u093e \u0915\u0930\u0947\u0902, \u092f\u0939 \u0938\u092e\u093e\u091a\u093e\u0930 \u0906\u092a\u0915\u0947 \u0905\u0928\u0941\u0930\u094b\u0927 \u0915\u0940 \u092d\u093e\u0937\u093e \u092e\u0947\u0902 \u0909\u092a\u0932\u092c\u094d\u0927 \u0928\u0939\u0940\u0902 \u0939\u0948\u0964 \u0915\u0943\u092a\u092f\u093e \u092f\u0939\u093e\u0901 \u0926\u0947\u0916\u0947\u0902\u0964 DELHI : 19 MAR 2022 :-\u00a0 National Mineral Development Corporation Ltd.
