Thorium Not Exported By VV Minerals, Nuclear Gold Of The Sand Lies Untouched

Thorium Not Exported By VV Minerals, Nuclear Gold Of The Sand Lies Untouched The Beach Mineral sands deposits are very unique in that they are found only in the coastal areas, formed & concentrated by the Ocean waves. In India, the Deposits are found in the coasts of Odhisa, A.P, and Tamil Nadu in the East coast and Kerala & Maharashtra in the West coast. The sands contain five or six minerals like Garnet, Ilmenite, Rutile, Zircon, Sillimanite etc., in varying percentages. The Monazite content in the Beach sands is very low. It may contain Thorium from 7.0- 8.5%. It is believed that in Tamil Nadu VV Minerals a private heavy mineral mining company is mining thorium for export along with monazite. However no beach Mineral sands lessees is keen to recover the Monazite because of low % in the ROM, besides the radiation hazards it may produce.

The Machinery &equipments for the processing units for beach mineral sands are not readily available. They are custom made, depending mainly upon the contained minerals, their percentages, mesh sizes and other impurities.

VV Minerals was alleged to have sent out monazite that can also be referred to as ‘Nuclear gold’ along with heavy mineral

exports. This is certainly not the truth as VV Minerals follows all the appropriate processes when it comes to mineral mining. It is wrongly believed that monazite is being sent out because all mining activities are supervised by government authorities and The AERB makes an Annual inspection of all the facilities, mines & refilled pits. They carry out the measuring the % of Monazite in the ROM; products & waste tailings. Therefore it is next to impossible that under such strict control any company can get away by carrying out illegal activities especially, VV Minerals, Vaikundarjan who is known for following all the rules and regulations.

Unlike other states in India, the Garnet Industry in Tamil Nadu has been developed so well, largely through private initiatives, interest & involvement, with very little Government encouragement. This is all because one name that is VV Minerals India which is the highest contributor to the state’s export. S. Vaikundarajan who is the Chairman of the VV Group has taken his company to great heights by practicing fair trade and not being involved in any illegal activities. Therefore, putting such false allegations on them is absolutely a wrong thing to do.

The monazite content though very low in the beach sands is still left untouched after thorium is extracted from the sands.

VV Minerals takes all cautionary measures to make sure that the Nuclear Gold is retained in the sands and nothing happens to it. VV Minerals, Vaikundarajan has been into this trade for quite some time now and has acquired all the statutory clearances and measures to lawfully carry out his business processes. Therefore, no one can accuse him of practicing foul trade. It is because of S. Vaikundarajan that this particular industry has been flourishing in India and bringing monetary benefits to the economy as well.
