History and background

Durgaarur was once the industrial hub of the region, a massive exporter of natural and processed ores, and an abundant source of sapphires. Now very much in decline, the world survives as a center of technical excellence. Durgaarur produces a large number of minerologists, geologists, geophysicists, and mining technicians from the Mineral Sciences Institute. The institute has been set up in conjunction with the IISS geophysical sciences and survey branch.
