Captive mines
1200 ha
Salem deposits with long-term mining leases.
About
Fifteen years of
industrial minerals, delivered nationwide.
Founded in Salem, Tamil Nadu, we have grown from a regional magnesite supplier into a pan-India mineral distributor — without compromising the operational discipline that earned us our first long-term customers.
Mission & vision
Mission
Deliver industrial-grade minerals — consistently, to every corner of India.
We exist to be the most reliable source of magnesite minerals for the industries that build, manufacture and process at scale — earning long-term partnerships through operational discipline rather than promotional volume.
Vision
To be the supplier India's procurement teams choose first.
By the end of the decade we aim to serve every industrial state directly, with a vertically integrated supply chain from captive mine to the customer's gate — and a partner-grade procurement experience at every touchpoint.
