Only 2% of mines have high potential for eco restoration
The New Indian Express Madurai
|July 08, 2025
THE State Planning Commission has identified 88 out of 5,051 mines in Tamil Nadu as having high potential for ecological restoration.
These mines, accounting for roughly 2% of the total in the state, are primarily located in Ariyalur and Salem districts.
Among the identified sites, limestone, magnesite and vermiculite mines were the most prominent. While Ariyalur and Salem host the majority of these high-potential mines, Tamil Nadu's only vermiculite mine is situated in Tirupattur district. In contrast, districts like Dindigul and Coimbatore showed lower restoration potential, mainly due to the nature of their mineral resources.
