To generate the Topographical maps of the major coalfields on 1:5000 scale with 2 meter contour interval in Plains (in case of hilly terrain contour interval may be 3-5 meter as practical) in GIS digital format based on Digital Photogrammetric Techniques using high resolution aerial photographs and adequate ground verification. Survey of India also impart on-job training on data processing and interpretation to 4 scientists of CMPDI for three months at the initial stage on preparation of Topographical maps based on aerial photographs using digital photogrammetric technique. Objective : Preparation of Updated Topographical Maps of major Indian coalfields based on remote sensing technique for better planning and optimal utilization of the coal resources. Role of Survey Of India : Survey of India is going to generate up-to-date digital topographical maps of 27 Major Indian Coal fields. Chhattisgarh, Jharkhand, Madhya Pradesh, Maharashtra & Goa, Meghalaya & Arunachal Pradesh, Orissa and W.B & Sikkim GDCs are involved in this project. Commenced : The commencing date of the project was 14.07.2009, which is likely to be completed by December 2016. Estimated cost : Rs. 110.53 crore Amount received from CMPDI is Rs. 38.30 crore Total expenditure upto FY 2014-15 is Rs. 56.96 crore.

These samples were tested for Chemical analysis, Crossing Point Temperature (CPT), Petrography, Infrared studies (IR) and Differential Thermal Analysis (DTA). All the test results vindicated that the aforesaid parameters had a definite relationship with the stratigraphic disposition or the ranks of coal. The low rank coals found as younger seams in the stratigraphic sequence were more prone to spontaneous combustion whereas the higher rank coals found at the bottom of stratigraphic se- quence were less prone to spontaneous combustion. Through combustibility characterisation by different tests, it was found that the upper Duman and Kaperti seams placed as younger seams in the stratigraphic se- quence are highly prone to spontaneous combustion whereas the lower Karakoh and Sonawani seams seem to be least prone to spontaneous combustion.

Mahesh Bilwa * Nagamadhu. C. J Prameela. M Department of Earth Science, University of Mysore, Manasagangotri, Mysore – 570 006, Karnataka, Ind ia *E-mail: [email protected] -mysore.ac.in, [email protected] Abstract Palynological investigation of Lower Gondwana sediments of Goutham Khani Open Cast Mine (GKOCM) from Kothagudem sub basin of Godav ari Valley Coalfield, Andhra Pradesh of Peninsular India have revealed two palynoassemblages are related to Early Permian (Barakar Formation). Palynoassemblage – A abundantly occurrence of Scheuringipollenites along with other common taxa like Parasaccites, Ibisporites , Primuspollenites, Sulcatisporites, Rhizomaspora, Densipollenites and Corisaccites and Palynoassemblage – B dominated by Scheuringipollenites along with sub dominance of Faunipollenites, Striatopodocarpites , Parasaccites, Striatites, Tiwariasporis, Rhizomaspora, Verticipollenites , Platysaccus, Primuspollenites, Lunatisporites , Latosporites, Ibisporites and Distriatites. The above demarcated palynoassemblages are applied to correlate with other horizons of Lower Gondwana deposits of India and a lso to fix the relative age for the sediments under investigation. Key words : Permian Age, Lower Gondwana, Palynoassemblage, Godavari Valley Coalfield, Sothern India. 1.Introduction Gondwana sediments of India can be broadly classified under two main geographic areas like Peninsular and Extra Peninsular regions. Presently based o n Gondwana floral remains like mega and micro fossil evidences can be applied to divide in to Lower Gondwana and Upper Gondwana sometimes Middle Gondwana with remains of Dicardium floral (mixed characters of both Monocot and Dicots) remains.

  • Coal Pillar Extraction by Continuous Miner Using Fish and Tail Method – a Case Study
    COAL PILLAR EXTRACTION BY CONTINUOUS MINER USING FISH AND TAIL METHOD – A CASE STUDY 1DEWANGAN PANKAJ, 2DAITHANKAR SUNIL, 3KUMAR VISHAL, 4SHEKHAR SIDDHARTH 1Associate Prof. and Head, Deptt. of Mining Engineering, NIT, Raipur, C.G., India 2General Manager (Mines), SMS Infrastructure, Pinoura Site 3,4Student, Final year Mining Engg., NIT, Raipur, C.G., India E-mail: [email protected], [email protected] Abstract - Opencast mining is the most prevalent method for coal extraction in India. Since underground coal mining requires high technical expertise, higher gestation period and higher capital investments, therefore opencast mining is more preferred for extracting coal deposits at shallow to moderate depths. In the last three decades, there has been a considerable increase in the production from opencast mines fulfilling over 80% of the country’s demand for coal. As a result, underground coal mining is still contributing only 15-20% production from 70% underground coal reserves. Most of the thick coal seam is found at greater depth and use of conventional method of underground mining is proved to be less efficient in giving a large production. The government is considering a push for underground mining to extract deep-seated coal to boost coal production but is facing challenges of resources and lack of machinery. One of the ways that can boost underground coal mining is through a piece of equipment called a continuous miner. It requires less investment and can work in difficult conditions, even in the absence of a long stretch of continuous deposition. This paper discusses the Mass Production Technology used in Pinoura Mines of Johilla area of South Eastern Coalfields Limited with depillaring by Fish and Tail method using Continuous Miner.

The first discovery of the coal ¥/as made in these fields in 1779, north of the Koel river. 'Ihe mining in these coalfields continued in a small scale till 1901, when Daltonganj ?/as connected with the main line of East Indian Railv/ay.
