Kamptee Coalfield is located in Nagpur district in the Vidarbha region of the Indian state of Maharashtra .
The coalfield
[ edit ]
Coalfieds in the Nagpur region are Kamptee, Bokhara and Umrer.[1]
Kamptee Coalfield lies north of Kanhan railway station in Nagpur district.[2] [3]
Exploration
[ edit ]
While presently (2012) only one mine is being worked in Kamptee Coalfield, detailed exploration has revealed large deposits of coal in three blocks: Ghatrohan area to the east of the Kanhan river, Silewara area to the west of the Kanhan river, Bina area to the south of the Kanhan river. Non-coking coal is available in five workable seams. The moisture content of the coals varies from 8 to 11% and the volatile matter from 33 to 43%.[4]
Reserves
[ edit ]
According to the Geological Survey of India , Kamptee Coalfield has total reserves of 2,296.84 million tonnes of non-coking coal, up to a depth of 1,200 m, out of which 1,233.74 million tonnes are proved reserves and the rest being indicated or inferred. Bulk of the coal is up to a depth of 300 m.[5]
