'''Panadhro''' is a village located in [Lakhpat](/source/Lakhpat) Taluka of [Kutch](/source/Kutch) District of [Gujarat](/source/Gujarat) State in [India](/source/India).

Panadhro is famous for its Lignite mines, which were developed in early 1970s and are run by [Gujarat Mineral Development Corporation](/source/Gujarat_Mineral_Development_Corporation) Limited.<ref>{{Cite web|title = Panandhro|url = http://www.gmdcltd.com/projects/lignite-projects/panandhro.aspx|website = www.gmdcltd.com|accessdate = 2015-09-14|archive-date = 4 March 2016|archive-url = https://web.archive.org/web/20160304032808/http://www.gmdcltd.com/projects/lignite-projects/panandhro.aspx|url-status = dead}}</ref>

Recently, Panadhro was in the news when a 9 Metre Crocodilian skeleton fossil was dug out of the Panadhro Lignite mine, which was about 90 million years old.<ref>[http://zinken.typepad.com/palaeo/2003/10/fodspor.html Palaeolithic foot prints]</ref>

The town of [S. K. Varmanagar](/source/S._K._Varmanagar) developed after Panadhro mines were discovered is just a few kilometers away and fulfills the daily needs of mining community.
