Copper in India

In the use of copper goes back to antiquity. Evidence of Copper mining and smelting in ancient Rajastan, Andhra Pradesh and in West Himalayan Region in Kullu and Garhwal, and excavations at Mohenjodaro and Harappa have established that its uses included implements of war, objects d’art, ornaments and coinage.

Indian craftsmanship in brass and broze is world-famous. Tanjore bronze, brass plaques, engraved brass sheets and broze bells are priaed both at home and abroad. The variety of the copper and bronze decoratives are found in many temples never fail to evoke our admiration.

Extent of the Ore Deposits

Most of the Indian ore deposits have a copper content of less than 2%. The deposits are confined largely to Singbhum in Jarkhand, Khetri in Rajastan, Malanjkhand in Madhya Pradesh followed by Chiradurga in Karnataka and Agnigundala in Andhra Pradesh.
