Individual portal to be created for Mines Ministry under Gati Shakti

In compliance with the PM Gati Shakti National Master Plan, the Ministry of Mines entrusted the responsibility for creation of individual portals to the Indian Bureau of Mines (IBM) through BISAG-N (Bhaskaracharya National Institute for Space Applications and Geo informatics). So far, two data layers have been created. The first layer covers the spatial data of Mineral concessions which included existing mining lease and existing composite licence granted through auction. The second layer includes mineral auction blocks which have been auctioned successfully but execution of mining leases is pending. Spatial data of around 3154 mining leases (both working and non-working including auctioned blocks) covering 297,200 Ha area all over the country have been uploaded on the portal, which is being validated. The process of validation is likely to be completed by the end of this month.
