In West Bengal, a number of significant finds have taken place during the last three decades. A new concealed coalfield, with huge resource potentiality, has been discovered in the west-central part of Birbhum district. The eastern limit of Raniganj coalfield, which so long remained undefined, has been delineated by exploration. The occurrence of Rajmahal volcanics, which was hitherto unreported from this coalfield, has been proved. Coal development pattern of the two coal-bearing formations and overall potentiality of the coalfield have been established comprehensively. The entire stretch of Darjeeling coalfield has been geologically examined in greater detail. Barjora outlier, located on the southeastern fringe of Raniganj coalfield, has been explored for its potential. This document embodies all the recent finds from the coalfields of West Bengal. This document will fill up a long standing gap and will be useful to the geoscientists, and particularly to the students of coal geology.
