Hutti Gold mine is the deepest non-coal mine in India.

 

India’s annual gold output is around 2-3 tonnes. Where-as South Africa, Australia, China, Peru and USA produce more than 200 tonnes annually. There were over a hundred gold mining centres in the early part of last century. The mines were located in parts of Kolar, Hutti, Gadag, Chitradurga & Shimoga in Karnataka, Wynad and Nilambur in Kerala, Kotagiri and Dharmapuri in Tamil Nadu, Ramagiri and Jonnagiri in Andhra Pradesh, Sonadehi in Chattisgarh, Parsori and Pular in Maharashtra, Kunderkocha and Sonapet in Jharkand. The mines then produced a large quantum of gold.
