Wani North sits on the western limb of the plunging regional anticline of the Wardha Valley Coalfield. The coal measures are Lower Gondwana (Permian)—chiefly Barakar Formation overlain locally by younger units—with multiple faults and gentle dips to the SE/S.Rajur Geological Block is located in the northwestern limb of Wardha Valley Coalfield.The coal bearing formations exhibit a strike of North 35° West – South 35° East in the eastern part. This strike swings further to the north assuming a North 63° West – South 63° East in the western part. The coal seams show a general gradient of 1 in 4 to 1 in 7 (8° to 12° dip).Two coal seams viz. Major Seam and Minor Seam are present in Rajur Geological Block. The Major Seam was split into four sections designated as Section-IV (from floor of Major Seam), Section-III, Section-II and Section-I. The combined seam thickness of Major Seam varies from 8m to 10m. The intervening parting is mostly composed of shale & carb. shale with coal bands except between Sections III & IV, which is sandstone and intercalation of shale and sandstone. This seam is mainly composed of shale, shaly coal, carbonaceous shale & thin bands of shale with dull appearance, high in sulphur, low in rank.
