The Geological Survey of India (GSI) has revealed that 35 % of India's Graphite deposits is found in Arunachal Pradesh.
About:
The GSI presented the data during its annual interactive meeting with the Department of Geology and Mining and Government of Arunachal Pradesh in Itanagar.
Key findings:
India is now importing Graphite from other countries.
Around 35 % of India's Graphite deposits is found in Arunachal Pradesh. The State could be the leading producer of graphite in the country in future.
Thus, the survey and drilling activities of the GSI should be moved towards the lndo-China international Border. Development of road towards the international border should be a boon for exploration of the mineral.
China was reportedly undertaking huge mining activities across the border in Tibet.
