December 8: Fifteen of UltraTech Cement’s Limestone mines have been awarded a five-star rating for sustainable mine management by the Ministry of Mines and the Indian Bureau of Mines. The five-star certificates were given by Shri Pralhad Joshi, Hon’ble Union Minister of Mines, at a recently held ceremony along with the National Conclave on Mines & Minerals in New Delhi.
This was awarded for the last three years (2017-18, 2018-19 and 2019-20), with a total of 30 such 5 Star rating awards. This is the highest number of five-star ratings awarded to any company in India for all major minerals such as Bauxite, Copper, Iron ore, Manganese, Lead & Zinc and Limestone.
