State Geological Laboratory, Hazaribagh
Introduction-
The government of Bihar, Department of Mines and Geology established a Geological
Laboratory in Patna in the year 1965. Later this Laboratory has been shifted to Hazaribagh in 1967.
The State Geological Laboratory is one and only laboratory which functions under the Directorate
of Geology, Department of Mines & Geology. It carries out Chemical, Petrological and Geo-
chemical analysis of rocks, minerals, ores and ground water.
OBJECTIVE
