Before a mining plan can be prepared, the orebody itself has to be understood — what's there, how much, and what it will take to extract it safely and legally.

Reserve & resource estimation · IBM reporting

What this covers

  • Exploration planning matched to the mineral and lease stage
  • Geological mapping and interpretation of field and drilling data
  • Reserve and resource estimation for mining plan and feasibility purposes
  • Geological reports prepared to the standard IBM and state Directorates expect
  • Feasibility assessment before committing to a mining plan or lease application

Why it matters

Geological work done as a standalone academic exercise often has to be redone once it reaches the mining plan stage. GSJ prepares geological reports with the downstream statutory submission already in mind.

How it works

From field data to a usable geological report

01

Review

Existing exploration data, drilling logs, and site geology assessed.

02

Plan exploration

Additional drilling or sampling scoped where the existing data has gaps.

03

Estimate

Reserves and resources calculated against IBM's classification standards.

04

Report

Geological or feasibility report prepared for use in the mining plan.

Common questions

Geological services FAQs

What if exploration data for the lease is old or incomplete?

We assess what exists, identify the gaps, and scope any additional drilling or sampling needed before reserve estimation can proceed with confidence.

How are reserves and resources classified?

Estimation follows IBM's classification standards, distinguishing between proved, probable, and inferred categories based on the density and reliability of the underlying data.

Does this feed directly into the mining plan?

Yes — reserve estimates and geological findings are structured to slot directly into the mining plan's technical sections rather than needing reformatting.

What minerals does this cover?

Iron ore, manganese, bauxite, chromite, graphite, limestone, dolomite, china clay, and other minerals common across the Jharkhand-Odisha-Bihar belt.
