Under this collaboration, the parties will jointly develop, operationalize, and manage an integrated SEZ-based ecosystem for the blending, value addition, and commercialisation of iron ore.

This initiative is designed to strengthen the iron ore export value chain on India's East Coast while enhancing efficiency, scale, and global competitiveness in mineral processing and trade.
