Koderma district, Administrative district in North Chotanagpur division, India

The district spans 2,540 square kilometers of terrain with forests surrounding its borders and three main rivers: Barakar, Barsoi, and Sakri flowing through.

Formed on April 10, 1994, the district emerged from the division of Hazaribagh district and became a significant center for mica mining in India.

The Dhawajadhari Pahar hill features a shrine where numerous people gather to honor Lord Shiva during the Mahashivratri festival.

The district contains six administrative blocks: Koderma, Jainagar, Chandwara, Markacho, Domchanch, and Satgawan, with Jhumri Telaiya as its largest town.

The region holds substantial deposits of natural resources including quartz, feldspar, asbestos, blue stone, white stone, and moon stone.
