Minerals constitute the backbone of the economic growth of any nation and India has been eminently endowed with this gift of nature. There is much evidence that the exploitation of minerals like coal, iron ore, copper, and lead & zinc has been going on in the country from time immemorial. However, the first recorded history of mining in India dates back to 1774 when the English Company was granted permission by the East India Company for mining coal in Raniganj. M/s John Taylor & Sons Ltd. started gold mining in Kolar Gold Fields in the year 1880. The first oil well was drilled in Digboi in the year 1866 - just seven years after the first ever oil well was drilled anywhere in the world viz. in Pennsylvania State, USA in 1859. Mining activities in the country however remained primitive and modest in scale-up till the beginning of the 21st century. After India became independent, the growth of mining under the impact of successive Five-Year Plans has been very fast.
Indian economy is on the aspirational path of becoming a $5 trillion GDP economyby 2024-25 and mining is going to have a substantial contribution to the envisagedGDP and wealth creation. Extraction of the Minerals from below the surface ofthe earth is fraught with innumerable dangers. Dangers due to a sudden inrush of water, release of lethal and inflammable gases or the fall of roof and sides are inherent to mining and it is essentially because of such unpredictable dangers that mining is considered the most hazardous of all peacetime occupations.
