Mallikarjun Minerals

Working at Mallikarjun Minerals in Udyambagh means you get used to the grit and the noise. Belgaum is a place where people work hard, and this industrial area is no different. We spend a lot of time outside or in the shed dealing with the raw materials. It isn't a clean job. Your clothes usually have a layer of fine dust on them by lunchtime. We don't really have a front desk or a receptionist greeting people. Usually, you’ll find one of us near the back checking the piles or talking to the truck drivers who come through. The yard is a bit uneven, and when it rains, the puddles stay for a few days. We know the neighbors around Udyambagh well because we all deal with the same stuff. There is a small tea stall down the road where we go when things slow down for a minute. It is mostly just about moving the minerals, making sure the weights are right, and keeping the trucks on schedule. We don't spend money on fancy signs. Most people who need to find us already know where we are. The sun hits the metal roof in the afternoon and makes it pretty warm inside, so we keep the doors wide open. It’s just us doing what we do every day, year after year. Nothing too special, just the daily grind in Belgaum. It can be tiring, but we are used to the rhythm of the machines.
