  • Recast Project Report for Dhankasa U/G Mine Executive
    RECAST P.R. FOR DHANKASA UG MINE-1.0 Mty (MAY-2016) CMPDI RECAST PROJECT REPORT FOR DHANKASA U/G MINE EXECUTIVE SUMMARY 1.0 INTRODUCTION 1.1 GENERAL The proposed Dhankasa UG Mine has been planned in the Geological blocks of Dhankasa and Naheriya (partly). These Geological Blocks are located in the north- eastern part of Pench-Kanhan Valley Coalfield, District Chhindwara, Madhya Pradesh. The area is covered in the Survey of India Topo-sheet No. 55 N/3 (RF 1:50,000) and is defined by Latitudes N 22o17'39" and N 22 o19'33" and Longitudes E 78o59'04" and E 79o01'13". The nearby operating mines are Naheriya UG & Urdhan OC. Naheriya U/G Mine is about 6 kms from proposed Dhankasa U/G Mine. Thesgora and Mathani mines are about 22 kms on the western side of Dhankasa Block. Dhankasa UG will be under the administrative control of Western Coalfields Limited. 1.2 HISTORY OF MINING Dhankasa geological block is a virgin block. Dhankasa U/G project is aimed at bridging the deficit in supply of coal partially from Pench Kanhan Coalfield as well as WCL. The report has proposed the deployment of mass production technology in order to generate higher production and productivity levels. Dhankasa block lies between Sonpur and Naheriya Blocks and Jamunia Block forms the south western boundary. North-south flowing Junapani nalla and east- west flowing Dhankasa nalla pass along the western and southern boundaries of the block. This Report has proposed to exploit proved reserves of 9 sectors in the Geological Block-i.e.

  • Coal Petrographic Characteristics and Depositional Conditions of the Subsurface Barakar Formation (Early Permian) in Belampalli Coalfield, Godavari Valley, Telangana
    The Palaeobotanist 66(2017): 71–80 0031–0174/2017 Coal petrographic characteristics and depositional conditions of the subsurface Barakar Formation (Early Permian) in Belampalli Coalfield, Godavari Valley, Telangana OMPRAKASH S. SARATE Birbal Sahni Institute of Palaeosciences, 53 University Road, Lucknow 226 007, India. Email: [email protected] (Received 09 December, 2016; revised version accepted 01 March, 2017) ABSTRACT Sarate OS 2017. Coal petrographic characteristics and depositional conditions of the subsurface Barakar Formation (Early Permian) in Belampalli Coalfield, Godavari Valley, Telangana. The Palaeobotanist 66(1): 71–80. The coal analytical studies have been taken up, to ascertain the rank on the basis of maceral composition and depositional environment of different seams namely Index, Index below top, Index below bottom, IA, I and the lowermost II (top section) intersected in Bore–hole No. SBS–182, from Sravanapalli area. The random vitrinite reflectance (Ro mean %) study of coal from Index and Index below bottom seams ranges between 0.61% and 0.63%, whereas IA and Seam I have shown lower reflectance which ranges between 0.52% and 0.54%. Thus, all these seams have attained high volatile bituminous C stage of rank. However, III (top section) seam has shown low reflectance (0.45%–0.46%), which indicates attainment of Sub–bituminous B stage. The coal maceral study has revealed that the Index, Index below Top, Index below Bottom seams contain vitric type of coal, whereas IA seam has vitric, fusic and mixed type of coal constitution. The lowermost III top and I seam, however, are represented by both vitric and fusic coal types.

  • A Regional Assessment of the Potential for Co2 Storage in the Indian Subcontinent
    A REGIONAL ASSESSMENT OF THE POTENTIAL FOR CO2 STORAGE IN THE INDIAN SUBCONTINENT Technical Study Report No. 2008/2 May 2008 This document has been prepared for the Executive Committee of the IEA GHG Programme. It is not a publication of the Operating Agent, International Energy Agency or its Secretariat. INTERNATIONAL ENERGY AGENCY The International Energy Agency (IEA) was established in 1974 within the framework of the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) to implement an international energy programme. The IEA fosters co-operation amongst its 26 member countries and the European Commission, and with the other countries, in order to increase energy security by improved efficiency of energy use, development of alternative energy sources and research, development and demonstration on matters of energy supply and use. This is achieved through a series of collaborative activities, organised under more than 40 Implementing Agreements. These agreements cover more than 200 individual items of research, development and demonstration. The IEA Greenhouse Gas R&D Programme is one of these Implementing Agreements. ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS AND CITATIONS This report was prepared as an account of the work sponsored by the IEA Greenhouse Gas R&D Programme.
