Location

The Jhanjra coal block is located on the north-eastern side of Raniganj Coalfield, 15 km north of NH 19 (old numbering NH 2)/ Grand Trunk Road and about the same distance by road from Durgapur.[1]

Jhanjra Project

The Jhanjra Area of Eastern Coalfields consists of only one colliery, the underground mechanised Jhanjra mine. The Jhanjra coal block covering a surface area of 11.50 km2, spread across 8 extractable seems, has a total reserve of about 200 million tonnes of coal. Development of this mine was initiated in the 1980s. While open-cast mining is cheaper and less labour-intensive, it is much less environment friendly compared to underground mining. Therefore, although India has depended on large scale open-cast mining to raise production of coal, the Jhanjra Project is an example of its new focus on underground mining.[1]

As of 2015-16, with the deployment of continuous miner mass production technology has been introduced in the Jhanjra mines. Longwall mining has also been introduced. Man riding system and free steered vehicle are already functional.[5]
