Coal generator Eastern Coalfields Ltd has rolled out a Standard Height Continuous Miner (SHCM) at its Kumardihi B underground mine in the Bankola region.

One of the completely held subsidiaries of Coal India Limited launched this miner, which will assist in boosting the production and productivity of the mine.
