(26-Mar-2026, 18:07 Hours IST)  
India is in the process of scaling up exploration of critical minerals, creating a startup-driven mining ecosystem and building strong domestic value chains to reduce import dependence, according to Union Minister Jitendra Singh. Addressing the Governing Body meeting of the National Mineral Exploration and Development Trust (NMET), held at GPOA Complex, Singh set out key priorities to accelerate exploration, strengthen domestic capacity and expand participation in the critical minerals sector. He said further that the pace of exploration, particularly for lithium and other critical minerals, needs to align with emerging global demand and India's strategic requirements. He referred to ongoing work in regions such as the Siwana belt in Rajasthan and the Salal'Haimna block in Jammu & Kashmir, and called for expanding indigenous exploration efforts across more potential zones.
