Kiriburu, Meghahatuburu, Gua, and Chiria iron ore mines are the major iron ore producers of the SAIL. All mines are situated on the hilltop and adopted an opencast mining method for the iron ore excavation. Due to the high demand for iron ore in India, it is a feasible approach towards the Saranda forest for the expansion of mine boundaries.
