Chromite ore is used in stainless steel making, chemical industries and many other exterior projects. Now as demand in the relevant industries has been increased, the company is unable to supply due to restriction in production capacities of the mine. So the lessee has proposed for enhancement of production of chromite ore up to 0.5 million TPA during the plan period.

Ferrochromium, an alloy of iron and chromium, is used as an a dditive in steel making. Th ere are three major grades of ferrochromium: low carbon, high carbon, and charge grade. In the past, low carbon ferrochromium was required by steel makers to keep the carbon content of steel low. However, improved ladle refining techniques such as argon oxygen decarburization, have allowed the steel industry to use high carbon ferrochromium, which is less expensive.
