Pre-Feasibility Report for Sahapur East Underground PRE-FEASIBILITY REPORT FOR SAHAPUR EAST UNDERGROUND COAL MINE PROJECT PROPOSED CAPACITY – 0.70 MTPA 1. INTRODUCTION Sahapur East Underground Coal Mine Project is a part of Sohagpur Coalfield. Sohagpur coalfield is the main coal bearing area of South Rewa. It is located in the northern belt of Son-Mahanadi basin. It is a part of the large sediments filled Gondwana trough, in the drainage basin of the Son. The coalfield extends over a total area of about 3,000 sq km. It is about 100 km. long in the east - west direction and has a maximum width of 50 km. The coal belt stretches from near Ghunghuti in the west up to Hasia nala in the east. The coal bearing area of Sohagpur coal field is bounded by latitudes 23°05’ – 23°30’ and longitudes 81°30’ – 82°12’. This area falls mainly in Shahdol District of Madhya Pradesh, while a small area is included in Umaria and Surguja Districts. Shahpur East Coal Block area falls under administrative control of Shahdol district, in Madhya Pradesh state. It lies in the north western part of Sohagpur coalfield, about 12 km. South- West of Shahdol town, the district headquarters. The block is located at a distance of 75 km. from Umaria town Block area is 659 Ha as the per the vesting order dated 3rd March 2021. The high-quality coal (G8 grade) produced through eco-friendly fully mechanized underground mining method will be used.

NEED / JUSTIFICATION FOR THE PROJECT Coal is the most important and abundant fossil fuel in India. It accounts for 55% of the country's energy needs. The country's industrial heritage was built upon indigenous coal. Commercial primary energy consumption in India has grown by about 700% in the last four decades. Driven by the rising population, expanding economy and a quest for improved quality of life, energy usage in India is expected to rise. Considering the limited reserve potentiality of petroleum & natural gas, eco-conservation restriction on hydel project and geo-political perception of nuclear power, coal will continue to occupy centre-stage of India's energy scenario. The Indian Coal industries are facing shortage of Coal against the domestic demand. The Coal production in the country had not been keeping pace with the increasing demand of the power sector due to various reasons, major one being delay in development of coal mines in the country. The proposed Sahapur East Coal Mine Project will help to bridge the gap of demand and supply of power grade coal to the surrounding power plants of the region. The mine will also bring enhanced socio-economic benefits to the local population of the project area by way of direct and indirect employment, improvement in infrastructure and growth of ancillary facilities 4. OBJECTIVES OF THE PROJECT: • To supply coal to the surrounding end use plants of the region. • To create conditions for growth of other ancillary industries in the region. Pre-Feasibility Report – Sahapur East Coal Mine, Page - 3 5. LOCATION AND COMMUNICATION • LOCATION Sahapur East Geological Block is virgin coal block in Sohagpur Coalfield. Geographically the block is located in part of Pali Tehsil of Umaria district and Sohagpur Tehsil of Shahdol district of Madhya Pradesh. Sahapur East Block is covered by Survey of India Topo Sheet No. 64 E/7 & E/8 and is bound by: Latitude: 23° 14' 21" N to 23° 15' 37" N, Longitude: 81° 18' 48" E to 81° 20' 28" E Senduri, Chunia, Kathotia are the villages falling within the block. • COMMUNICATION S.No Item Description 1.

Pre-Feasibility Report – Sahapur East Coal Mine, Page - 4 6. TOPOGRAPHY, DRAINAGE AND CLIMATE • The landform in Sohagpur Coalfield is controlled by the lithological set up of the different formations. The Talchirs have formed low-lying plains with average altitude of 450 m to 500 m above MSL. The area to the north rises to an elevation of over 1000m with successive escarpments. The Barakar strata with their undulatory to low dips have given rise to a feature of less rolling topography. However, the Barakar sandstones stand out prominently against the surrounding plains, wherever they are capped by basic sills-dyke. To the east of Singara, one such prominent ridge is noted. The dolerite, a common feature of this coalfield, forms a rugged to hilly topography. In contrast to the featureless topography of the areas where Lower Gondwana strata occurs, the Upper Gondwana rocks form prominent ridges. They constitute the prominent plateau to the north. This plateau joins with the Sonhat plateau in the east. • The Son river with a north-westerly flow is the main drainage channel of Sohagpur coalfield. Several streams originate in the high trappean region in the south and join the Son. These north flowing streams include Nargara, Sarpa, Bagiha, Bakan, Suthna, Tipon etc. The Kewai river originating in the Supra Barakar plateau of the Sonhat coalfield, forms the main drainage in the eastern part of the coalfield. The eastern most part of the coalfield is also drained by the Jhiria and Kulharia nalas, which ultimately discharge into the Hasdo river, which flows close by. • In Shahpur East Block, the maximum elevation is around 490 m. observed in the south- west part and minimum elevation is 470 m as observed in north-east corner of the block. • The Shahpur East Block is marked by dendritic pattern of drainage system formed by north-ward flowing nala namely Ghinachunia, This is the only drainage system available within the block. A number of small ponds are found within the block. • The area experiences three seasons during the year. The summer is from March to June when the day temperature varies from 25°C to 46°C and at night, it is between 18°C to 24°C. Mid-June to September is the rainy season and from October, the winter sets in Pre-Feasibility Report – Sahapur East Coal Mine, Page - 5 and continues up to February. During winter season, the maximum day temperature varies from 26°C to 31°C while the minimum night temperature shows variation from 7°C to 15°C. • The average rainfall in the area varies from 1000 mm to 1700 mm annually. • A very small part in Shahpur East Block, is covered by private eucalyptus plantation. The rest of area covered by cultivated land where paddy is the main annual crop of the area. 7. GEOLOGY • Sohagpur Coalfield constitutes the middle segment of the Rewa Gondwana basin and reportedly has a regional east-west elongation in conformity with the alignment of the basin belt. The beds, as reported, have a general WNW-ESE to East-west trend and dip at very low angles (1° to 4°) towards NNE or North. Considerable variations in the direction and amount of dip have been reported near fault planes. Local rolls of the strata are also common. • GSI (Geological Survey of India) carried out “Regional Exploration” in Shahdol, Kelmania- Mithauri Patasi, Diapipar areas between 1994 and 1999 in the western part of Sohagpur coalfield for high rank coal. National Mineral Development Corporation Limited (NMDC) was allotted two coal blocks viz Sahapur East and Sahapur West in 2007 from Ministry of Coal (vide Orde Number “13016-08-2007-CA-1 dated 25-7-07”). Subsequently, NMDC entered into a Memorandum of Understanding with Mining Exploration Corporation Limited (MECL) to start exploration in these blocks in 2008.

School Burhar, Distt-Shahdol, Madhya Pradesh, INDIA. Abstract This paper deals with the studies on soil quality parameters of Shagpur area of Shahdol affected by acid mine drainage of coal mines from January 2016 to March 2016. Discriminant analysis on normalised major and trace element data of soil, mining site samples suggested a clear discrimination between chemical data of soil, ore and phyllite samples. It has been observed that the soil quality in mostly affected areas have relatively pH (6 ± 7.3), low nutrients (nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium) content, organic carbon (0.30 ± 1.50) and which has decreased gradually from coalmine unaffected and affected areas. Certain heavy metals in high concentration (Fe, Zn, and B) were also detected from soil of the area. Soil damage and environment degradation during surface mining is inevitable as vegetation and top soil have to be removed and waste rocks are to be shifted to a new location. Mining leads to loss of grazing and fertile land, soil erosion, sedimentation or siltation, danger to aquatic life, damage to flora and fauna as well as water and soil pollution.

  • Year End Review 2020- Ministry of Coal Coal Sector Reforms
    Firefox https://pib.gov.in/PressReleasePage.aspx?PRID=1685058 Ministry of Coal Year End Review 2020- Ministry of Coal Coal Sector Reforms introduced ease of doing business while retaining transparency Commercial coal mine auctions: 19 blocks successfully auctioned in November 2020 Ministry along with stakeholders is actively pursuing to achieve Import Substitution Progressing towards 1 Billion Tonne Coal Production First Mile Connectivity: Ease of living in coal mine areas Diversification: NLCIL ventures into new sectors Green initiatives such as CBM exploitation and surface coal gasification taken up Posted On: 31 DEC 2020 2:56PM by PIB Delhi Coal Reforms-Background India is currently producing about 729 million tonnes of coal. However, it is a fact that domestic production is not able to meet the demand of coal in the country. India has imported 247 million tonnes of coal last year and had spent 1.58 lakh crore as foreign exchange. Despite India being world’s second largest coal producer and being the 5th largest country in terms of coal deposits, with coal reserves which may last at least 100 years more, the country is unable to produce adequate quantity of coal to meet the requirement of domestic industry and development. It is the intention of the Government of India to bring faster economic development to the aspiring regions of the country. Since these States are resource rich, harnessing of these resources is critical in the development of these States. Commercial auction of coal mines alongwith transparent measures taken by the Government of India has come at an opportune time to bridge the mismatch between the demand and supply of coal in the country.
