The Indian Resource Industry has been witnessed a noteworthy development in recent past. In view of that, Lanco has gained significant momentum by building its natural resources portfolio of operating and under-development assets in India & Globally. Developing of natural resource portfolio is Lanco’s strategic move towards ‘Project Integration’ to secure fuel supply to its power plant as well as ‘Market Strategy’ to cater to the Global Market.

Coal Business has remained the key focus area for Lanco in the recent past. With this, Lanco has joined the exclusive league of mine developer & operators in India having more than 2 billion tonnes of coal resources into its business portfolio. This portfolio is currently producing more than 4 MTPA of coal and equipped to augment the production from 4 MTPA to ~40 MTPA by 2020.

The Lanco Resources division comprises the following verticals:

	Griffin Coal Mine, Australia (Largest coal mine in Australia)
	In the face of bourgeoning global coal market, Lanco has made a strategic move into the global resources industry. The company, though it’s Australian Subsidiary, acquired "Griffin Coal" in the year 2011; the largest individual supplier of thermal coal to Western Australia's Industrial coal market with over 1.2 billion tons of coal resources. Griffin currently mines around 4 million tons per annum (MTPA), which essentially caters to domestic customers with an export quantity of around 0.75 MTPA through Kwinana port. From the present level of production of 4 MTPA, Lanco plans to ramp up the mining production capacity four-fold to around 18 MTPA by the year 2018.
	Under development:
	Tasra
