Bhubaneswar : The Geological Survey of India (GSI) has found gold deposits in Adas Rampalli area of Deogarh district in Odisha, with the state govt deciding to initiate auction of the mine, reports Ashok Pradhan.
This will be the first time that the Odisha govt will auction a gold mine, state steel and mines minister Bibhuti Jena told the assembly.
GSI stumbled upon the gold mine while undertaking ‘general exploration’ for copper, Jena said in a written reply. In response to a question by Congress MLA Tara Prasad Bahinipati, Jena said GSI in its preliminary survey had indicated presence of gold in Gopaur and Gazipur area of Keonjhar district in 1981-83 and 1989-96.
