India earmarks $530m for aerial survey of deep-seated mineral resources

The Indian government will spend $530-million over seven years to conduct aerial surveys across 800 000 km2 of “obvious geological potential”. The Mines Ministry in March 2016 appointed an advisory consultant and based on its report, it is seeking an international agency to conduct the aero-geological survey and mapping of deep-seated minerals across the demarcated areas.
