Adani Enterprises is in the process of setting up a copper smelter project with a capacity of one million tonnes per annum at an investment of Rs 10,000 crore at Adani Port Special Economic Zone (APSEZ) in Gujarat.
Prasarak Suryarao is the MD tasked with the Mundra Copper Ltd he is currently working with Adani Synenergy Ltd. at Ahmedabad and head the Copper Project coming up in Mundra. Under the name of Greenfield Copper Refinery Plant. The proposed project will produce 1 million tpy of copper cathodes, 500,000 tpy of copper rods, 3 million tpy of sulphuric acid, 500,000 tpy of phosphoric acid, 30,000 tpy of aluminium fluoride, 288 tpy of selenium, 50tpy of gold.

Adani Enterprises in November 2018 made Mundra Copper a wholly-owned subsidiary, as per disclosures made to the exchanges at that time. The subsidiary is now being manned by directors like Haresh Rajmal Mehta, Adani group's vice president of Corporate Finance who also serves on the board of Adani Water.
The project, as per a previous filing with the environment ministry made by Adani Enterprises, would be set up at an investment of Rs 10,000 crores spread over 634 acres within Adani Port Special Economic Zone in Mundra
The project envisages producing 1 million tonnes of copper cathode and 5 lakh tonnes of the copper rod a year and also 50 tonnes of gold and 500 tonnes of silver as by-products. The deal, once commissioned, will more than mitigate the crisis hitting the domestic copper availability with the closure of Vedanta's smelter in Tuticorin.
