Pottangi bauxite reserves had been reserved for allocation in 2015. The allotment had been delayed due to bureaucratic hurdles. 

However, the company has planned to install its fifth potline at its smelter in Angul, Odisha. This potline would add aluminium capacity of 0.6-million tons per annum. The project is slated to be completed   in the next three years.

Nalco will get the raw materials security from the new mine in the short term. The company intends to use bauxite reserves at Pottangi in the long term.
