About this place
History & highlights
The wider Chaibasa–Jhinkpani belt has been historically significant for iron ore and forest resources, attracting mining interests for over a century. Tribal communities have long used the forests for shifting cultivation, collection of non-timber forest produce and sacred groves. Under colonial rule, the region saw early mining and forest reservation, and in independent India, it became part of Jharkhand’s mineral backbone. Tourism is still emerging, but the hills and forests carry the deep history of interaction between indigenous communities, nature and mining.
