Overview

The foundation of every tonne of steel.

India sits on some of the world's highest-grade haematite deposits. VAMM's iron ore desk sources directly from captive mines and e-auction blocks across Odisha's Keonjhar belt, Karnataka's Bellary-Hospet region and Chhattisgarh's Dalli-Rajhara district.

We supply fines (6-10mm) for sinter and pellet plants, lumps (10-40mm) for blast-furnace direct charging, and pellet feed (<6mm) for pellet-plant operators — all with guaranteed Fe content, moisture and LOI.

Our logistics wing moves iron ore by rail-rake direct-dispatch from mine-head to plant, or by coastal vessel for seaborne export.

Applications

Where our iron ore ends up.

Blast Furnace Steelmaking

Lumps directly charged into integrated blast furnaces — the most established steel production route.

Pellet Plants

Fines and pellet feed, beneficiated and balled into 10mm pellets for DRI and BF feed.

Sinter Plants

Iron-ore fines blended with coke breeze and flux for sinter-strand production at integrated mills.

DRI / Sponge Iron

High-grade lumps and pellets for rotary-kiln direct-reduction iron (DRI) plants.

Ferro-Alloy

Iron ore fines as alloy feedstock for specialty steels and ferro-manganese alloys.

Export Cargo

Seaborne export to steelmakers in Southeast Asia, the Middle East, and China.

Quality & Certifications

Independent chain-of-custody.

Every iron ore parcel is inspected at mine-head by an accredited surveyor — moisture, Fe content, Al2O3, SiO2, P and S all certified before dispatch. Draft-survey weight at port is independently reconciled.

Our domestic rake-movements come with Railway Receipt (RR), mine-sampling certificate and dispatch weighment — a complete paper trail from pit to plant.
