Exploration & Assessment

Exploration and assessment are fundamental in coal mining, focusing on identifying and evaluating coal deposits. This process involves geological surveys to map potential coal-bearing areas, core drilling to obtain samples from various depths, and analyzing these samples to determine coal presence and quality.

Geophysical and geochemical methods are used to detect subsurface structures and estimate coal volume. Resource modeling helps assess the economic viability of mining. Additionally, an environmental impact assessment evaluates potential effects on ecosystems and communities. Feasibility studies and permitting are conducted to ensure the project meets legal and economic requirements before extraction begins
