A mica processing unit in Jamui's mineral belt that grades and splits sheet/scrap mica under an auditable, child-labour-free sourcing system — the certification credibility is the product international electronics and cosmetics buyers actually pay for.

Jamui sits on a significant mica and mineral belt atom, but the region carries a documented history of child labour and informal mining, which has frozen out international buyers. This unit's edge is not the mica itself but verifiable ethical sourcing: it grades, splits and packs sheet and scrap mica through an auditable, traceable supply chain that gives electronics-insulation and cosmetic-mica buyers the compliance assurance they require.
The capex covers grading and splitting workspace, weighing and packing, and working capital. Honest constraints dominate the risk: child-labour due diligence and third-party audit trails are non-negotiable and slow to build, traceability back to legal collection points is hard in an informal trade, and one credibility lapse loses every serious buyer. Break-even realistically takes around three years. Buyers are international electronics-insulation manufacturers, cosmetic-grade mica importers, and ethical-supply-chain intermediaries who will only deal with a clean, certified source — which is precisely the gap this unit fills.
