Two boreholes i.e. IBBA-7 and IBBA-8 were drilled from April 2015 to 30 th August, 2015. Three regional coal seams of Barakar Formation (Parkhani, Lajkhura and Rampur from top to bottom) were intersected between 481.92 m and 836.50 m. The Lajkhura seam having the maximum cumulative thickness of 72.05 m (IBBA-7) with ten splits is most important for its regional persistence and thickness. The other seams Parkhani (maximum cumulative thickness of 16.36 m in seven splits in IBBA-8) and Rampur (maximum cumulative thickness of 32.58 m in nine splits in IBBA-7) too have regional persistency were intersected during the drilling of the two boreholes. The important achievement in the Bandbahal Block is the increase in cummulative coal thickness of Lajkura seam zone. Geophysical logging of 1,622 m was carried out. The block may proved to be economically potential area for coal resource.the exploration work was completed. Regional exploration by mapping & drilling. A cumulative coal thickness of 654.28 m has been intersected in five boreholes (IBBR- 4, 5, 6, 7 & 8). Formational thickness of Kamthi Formation varied from 0 m to 10 m, thickness of Raniganj Formation varied from 30.83 m to 158.19 m, thickness of Barren Measures Formation varied from 28.51 m to 50.94 m and thickness of Barakar Formation varied from 554.72 m to 582.87 m. Four coal seams of Raniganj Formation (R-IV, R-III, R- II, and R-I from top to bottom) and five coal seams of Barakar Formation (Belpahar, Parkhani, Lajkura, Rampur and Ib from top to bottom) have been established.

Production The toal estimated value of mineral production (excludes atomic mineral) in Odisha at ` 26,704 crore in 2015-16 decreased by 8% as compared to the previous year. Odisha accounted for 9% in the total value of mineral production in the country during the year under review. The important minerals produced in the State were coal, iron ore, chromite, bauxite and manganese ore which together accounted for 99% value of mineral production in 2015-16. The State Odisha claims the 2 nd position among the States in the country with a contribution of about 9% to the total value of the mineral production in the country during the year 2015-16. Odisha shared almost entire output of chromite and was also the leading producer of iron ore, bauxite and coal with a share of 51%, 39% and 22% in the total production of respective mineral in the country during the year 2015-16. It also shared 19% output of sillimanite and 18% each of manganese ore and garnet (abresive). Of the important minerals in the State, production of graphite more than doubled and that of iron ore increased by 54%, chromite (34%), limestone (32%), garnet (abrasive) (23%), bauxite and manganese ore (19% each) and coal (12%) as compared to that in the previous year.
