Mining done by family members or community which is not under government is called rat hole mining in India. This is mainly done by tribals of north-east India. This is named so because they dig holes similar to that of rat holes to mine.

Rat hole Mining in the tribal area:

  • Rat hole mining involves the digging of very small tunnels that look like rat holes by which the tribal people (not under government) enter and extract coal.
  • Rat hole mining is practiced in the Northeast regions of India especially in Meghalaya since it has large deposits of coal, limestone, etc,.
  • The tunnel is about 3-4 feet deep. Side-cutting and box-cutting are the two types of rat hole mining.
  • Rat hole mining is an illegal process. It results in environmental degradation.
