SAIL Re-invites Bids for Greenfield Coal Mine

摘要

State-owned SteelAuthor-ity of India will again call for quotations from mining contractors to develop a greenfield coking coal mine in which it hopes to, for the first time, also outsource rehabilitation of local people as part of the mine development programme. The hunt for a mining contractor willing to run the 4-MT mine, coal washery and take on resettlement and rehabilitation of 3,500 families at the Tasra block, Jhark-hand, at an affordable price has proven difficult. This month when SAIL invites tenders for an MDO for the 117-MT Tasra block, it will be the fourth time, having failed in its last three attempts.
