Project Detail:
Expansion of Amrapali OCP (Phase-I) (25 MTPA/619.87 Ha)
It lies between latitudes 23°52'36.34"N to 23°53'54.82"N and longitudes of 84° 58'44.35"E to 85°1'32.38"E.
As per the Approved EPR of Amrapali OCP (25/35 MTPA), a new pit head Amrapalirailway siding for dispatch and transportation of coal from mine to siding throughcovered conveyor belt system is
proposed. The construction of pit head Amrapali Railway siding is under progress, it has beenestimated that it may take 3 years to come into operation. Till then, coal will be transported to sidings on Shivpur-Tori line by covered tippingtrucks.
Improvements in Physical Infrastructure Improvements in Social Infrastructure, Increase in Employment Potential, Contribution to the Exchequer, Meet energy and steel sector requirement
Productive utilization of existing manpower
14.40 MTPA to 25.00 MTPA
Central Coalfields Limited (CCL), a subsidiary of Coal India Limited is a prime producer of coking & non-coking coal in the country. It operates coalmines in the state of Jharkhand. Its operation spread over 2600 km2 in the districts of Ramgarh, Hazaribagh, Bokaro, Giridih, Palamu, Chatra, Latehar, Deoghar and Koderma. Mining operation spread over six coalfields i.e North Karanpura, South Karanpura, East Bokaro, West Bokaro, Ramgarh and Giridih Coalfields. CCL has been playing a pivotal role in fulfilling the energy needs of the country. This subsidiary of Coal India Limited has produced 66.88 Mt. of coal during 2019-20 and is planning to produce 86 MTPA in 2020-21 to meet the energy demands of the country. The project under consideration, i.e. Amrapali Expansion OCP (Phase-I) (25.00 MTPA/619.87 Ha) falls under North Karanpura Coalfields of CCL headed by General Manager, Magadh- Amrapali area
Amrapali Expansion OCP (Phase-I) is an expansion of existing opencast coal-mining project. The proposed project will run with a rated capacity of 25.00 MTPA within the project area of 619.87 Ha. and a mine life of 04 years (As on 31.03.2020). The project consists of two geological blocks namely, Amrapali and Kishanpur.
Amrapali OCP is an existing project of CCL operating with an EC capacity of 14.40 MTPA. In order to meet the increasing coal demand from power sector in India, efforts are being made by Coal India Limited to enhance the production of existing coalmines. The present proposal i.e., Amrapali Expansion OCP (Phase-I) is an expansion proposal from 14.40 MTPA to 25 MTPA within the project area 619.87 Ha
Cost of project 5136.15 Cr
