AI summary

NMDC responded to a media report about exploring coal reserves in Canada. The company confirmed it is scouting for mineral assets across different geographies including Canada as part of its business strategy, but clarified that these engagements are preliminary in nature. No negotiation or binding agreement has been entered into. NMDC stated it will make suitable disclosures when a firm decision is made, and attributed share price movements to broader macro and global factors.

Likely market impact

No material action confirmed. Talks are at a very early exploratory stage with no binding deal, so near-term impact on operations or financials is unlikely.
