    Coal is a fossil fuel formed over millions of years from the compression of biological materials underground. It exists in various forms depending on compression levels. In India, coal is primarily found within two rock sequences - Gondwana and Tertiary deposits. Around 80% of Indian coal contains bituminous coal, which is a non-coking grade commonly used as fuel. The largest coalfields are located in Jharkhand, including the major Jharia field. Conservation methods could help preserve remaining coal resources.
