Abandoned Mine Sites
IBM had identified abandoned / orphaned mines which had been left un-reclaimed prior to the promulgation of rules about Mine Closure Plan in April, 2003. Through a special study at national level, 297 abandoned mine sites were identified. Out of the 297 abandoned mine sites, IBM identified 106 abandoned mine sites belonging to Public Sector Undertakings, major and other private sector companies requiring reclamation / rehabilitation. Out of the above 106 sites, 24 mine sites become operational again, thus requiring reclamation and rehabilitation in respect of 82 abandoned sites only. List of such 82 mine sites is given below.
