==Mining activity==
===Mines and projects===
KDH (KD Hesalong) opencast project is an existing mine with a production capacity of 4.5 million tonnes per year. An extension project has been proposed in order to sustain the level of production from the existing KDH OCP and also to fulfill the demand of power grade coal from North Karanpura Coalfield. The KDH OCP falls within Hesalong and KD South blocks in the south central part of North Karanpura Coalfield in Ranchi district. It is 1 km from Khalari railway station on the [[Barkakana-Son Nagar line]]. The topography of Hesalong block is undulating and rolling with small ridges. The intervening valleys and low flat grounds are generally coincident with the outcrops of the coal seams. The altitude range is {{convert|418-466|m}}. As of 2014, it has a mineable reserve of 107.15 million tonnes and the life of the mine is estimated at 29 years.<ref>{{cite web| url = http://environmentclearance.nic.in/writereaddata/Online/TOR/0_0_28_Jul_2014_1717467931Annexure-Pre-feasibility-Report-PFR-KDH-Extension-OCP.pdf |title =Pre-feasibility Report of KDH Extension OCP |publisher= CMPDI | access-date = 27 December 2020}}</ref><ref>{{cite web| url =http://environmentclearance.nic.in/writereaddata/Online/TOR/0_0_28_Jul_2014_1530502231Brief-summary-of-project-KDH-Extension-OCP.pdf |title = Brief Summary of KDH Extension OCP |publisher= CMPDI | access-date = 27 December 2020}}</ref>

Rohini OCP was started in 1992–93. It produced 0.731 million tonnes of coal in 2013–14. A comprehensive Environmental Management Plan (EMP) for this project (0.8 MTPA to 2.00 MTPA), was formulated by CMPDI. The mineable reserve is 15.979 million tonnes and the estimated life of the project is 10 years. Rohini OCP is located at [[Dakra, Ranchi|Dakra]] in Ranchi district. It is situated west of [[Damodar River]] and north and north-west of the Karkatta OCP and K.D. Hesalong OCP.<ref>{{cite web| url =https://www.centralcoalfields.in/sutbs/pdf/env_stmnt/rohini_ocp.pdf |title = Environmental Statement 2013-14 : Rohini Opencast Project |publisher =Central Coalfields Limited| access-date = 27 December 2020}}</ref>
