This book focuses on the Jharia coalfield in Dhanbad district, Jharkhand, an important source of prime coking coal in India. The coalfield, with over 40 workable coal horizons within a 600-meter strata thickness, has been the backbone of coal mining in the country for over 110 years. The book addresses the impact of mining activities on the environment, demography, and land use over the past century and explores the challenges of mine fires, subsidence, and the effective exploitation of coal reserves in this region.
