As of 31/3/2017, the total mineable reserve in 5 seams (XIII, XII, XI, XA, X) was 9.03 million tonnes.

Feasibility of extracting coal up to 140 metres (460 ft) depth including developed area of underground workings by opencast method is studied and it is found technically feasible to convert the underground mine to opencast mine up to seam X.

After economic extraction is over, the remaining coal in an abandoned mine is stolen by coal mafias, villagers leading to roof falling, water flooding, poisonous gas leaking, leading to the death of many labourers.” In the Kuju Area of CCL illegal mining activities are taking place in Pindra, Topa, Ara and Saruberia non-working mines, and Kuju-Morpa, Banwar, Pundri non-working quarries.
