Dimension: - Pit no. 1:-. Length: - 87 m., Width: - 82 m., Depth: - 24 m.

Location: - 00-101N to 4E-47W

Surface Geological Plan-Plate No.-4

a) Physiography & Drainage:- The lease area is located 1.5 Km. due north of village

Baldevgarh. The area, for which Scheme of Mining is prepared, is plain area. The lease

area is occupied by Dolomitic Marble and Alluvium. The highest altitude is of 338.7 mRL

and the lowest altitude is of 314.2 mRL in pit bottom of the lease area. So the level

difference is of 24.5 m.

General drainage pattern is North East- South West.

The area consists of scanty bushes and trees of Babool & Khakra. Thorny bushes have

also grown up in the area. The tree density is 15 trees per hectare and average girth of the

trees is not more than 0.15 meter. Maize, Wheat, Bajra and Pulses are the major crops of

the region.

There is no protected or reserved forest in and around the lease area.

There is no habitation within the lease area.

Vegetation

The lease area is having few local bushes only.

Climate

The area is characterized under semi arid type with an average annual rainfall of about

565 mm. which is mainly, received during July to September. The area is categorized as

Semi Arid zone.

Minimum Temp. - Varies between 1.4º during winter and 30º C in summer.

Maximum Temp. - Varies between 25º during winter to 47º C in summer.

13

b) Geology of the area

i) Regional Geology

The district comprises Precambrian metamorphic and igneous rocks, belonging to

the Mangalwar Complex of the Pre-Delhi (Archean) and Raialo, Alwar and Ajabgarh

Groups, in ascending order of superposition, belonging to the Delhi Super group (Lower

to Middle Proterozoic) and post-Delhi igneous intrusive Alluvium and Aeolian sediments

mark the older formations. The Mangalwar Complex comprising quartzite, mica schist,

crystalline limestone, conglomerate and granite, occur as isolated exposures in the

southern part.

These are un-conformably overlain by the Raialo Group comprising

predominantly calcareous formations with volcanic and subordinate quartzite. These lie in

the core part of regional folds, defined the main structural pattern of the area and contain a

basal conglomerate and arkose quartzite unit, followed by a sequence of argillaceous and

impure calcareous rocks.

The geological sequence worked out by G.S.I. is given as under.

14

ii) Local Geology: -

Geologically, the rocks of Railo group are outcropping in the mining lease area.

The common rock type of this area is Dolomitic Marble. The stratigraphic sequence of the

litho unit present in the area is as follows: -

Recent & sub recent - Alluvium

Delhi Super Group - Railo Group – Dolomitic Marble

To understand the structural configuration of the lease area, a surface geological

plan has been prepared on a scale of 1:1000. Geological cross-sections are drawn along

with longitudinal section.

C) Method of Estimation of Reserves

Based on the working of the deposit and occurrence of Marble at various places, it

reveals that the complete lease area is mineralized. Accordingly, the marble reserves have

been estimated on following considerations: -

15

(i) Average 0.15 m thick cover has been considered as overburden scree

material.

(ii) Average 17 m thickness as exposed Marble (Khanda) has been considered under

proved category of reserves.

(iii) A further 20 m depth of Marble (Khanda) below proved category has been

considered under probable category reserves.

(iv) Another 10 m depth of Marble (Khanda) below probable category has been

considered under possible category reserves.

(v) Bulk Density of Marble (Khanda) has been considered 2.7 tonnes /m3.

(vi) Recovery of Marble (Khanda) is taken 95% of total reserve.

Reserve estimation: -

The reserves have been estimated considering the experience gained for the last

25 years of mining of marble and its exposures. The reserves for Marble under proved,

probable & possible categories have been calculated by cross- sectional area method.

I Proved Reserves:

= Cross- Sectional Area (m2) x influence length (m) x Bulk Density (t/m3)

= 404 x 100 x 2.7 x 0.95

= 103626 MT

II Probable Reserves:


= 2002 x 100 x 2.7 x 0.95

= 513513 MT

III Possible Reserves:


= 1000 x 100 x 2.7 x 0.95

= 256500 MT

Total Geological Reserves = (Proved + Probable + Possible) reserves

= 103626 + 513513 + 256500

= 8,73,639MT

16

Mineable Reserve

For estimation of mineable reserve the following parameters have been taken into

consideration: -

i) Recovery of Marble is 95%, 5% is Mining Loss of total reserve.

(iii) Waste Rocks (OB) = Nil

Life of mine

We are considered average production of 90,000.0 MT of Marble (Khanda) per

annum from the mine.

Life of mine = Total mineable reserve/ Av. Annual Production

= 8,73,639/ 90,000

= 9.7071

= Say 10 years

3rd Year (2016-17) 95,162

4th Year (2017-18) 91,827

Recovery of Marble is 95% of total reserve.

a) Mineable Reserve and anticipated life of the Mine: -

For estimation of mineable reserve the following parameters have been taken into

consideration:

i) Statutory barriers of 7.5m are not mineable.

b) Life of mine

We are considered average production of 90,000.0 MT of Marble (Khanda) per

annum from the mine.

Life of mine = Total mineable reserve/ Av. Annual Production

= 8, 73, 639/ 90,000

= 10 years

c) Proposed Method of Mining: -

It is a working lease. The mining is being carried out by open cast semi

mechanized method of mining. The bench height will be kept 6 m and width of the

benches will also not be less than the height of the bench. Statutory barrier of 7.5 m will

not be left and the required permission from the chief inspector of mines under rule 111 of

MMR 1961 will be taken.

It is further proposed that for mineral transportation from the mines, a haul road in

consultation with the adjoining lease holders will be developed which will be used by all

the lease holders gives consent to construct, run & maintain the haul road to have safe &

deeper working for optimum production.

The Mining of marble (Khanda) requires the drilling in the marble, charging the

drill holes with explosive and then blasting of the holes. The blasted material will be

22

loaded into the dumpers after proper sizing with the help of hammers and chisels. The

loaded material will be fed to the end users.

d) Conceptual Mining plan

The conceptual Mining Plan has been discussed up to anticipated life of the mine.

e) Ultimate Pit Limits

Presently, the existing pit is covering an area of 6950 m2, as shown in surface plan

(Plate 4). For the period of next four years, the mine planning has been given for this Pit.

In the proposed mine planning, the limits of Pit will be 100m × 100m (average) × 32 m at

the end of fifth year (refer Plate No. 6). So it will occupy an area of about 10,000 m2. The

ultimate pit limit will be at 260 mRL.

f) BLASTING: -

The Board blasting parameters will be as under: -

1. Spacing : 1.20 m

2. Burden : 0.8497 m

3. Depth of hole : 1.6 m. (In two stages)

4. Tonnage of each hole : 4.77 m

5. Charge per hole ANFO : 0.40 Kg

6. No. of Cartridge : 1

7. No. of hole per round : 20

8. No. of round per day : 2 to 3

9. No. of row : 1

10. Wt. Of Cartridge : 125 gm

11. Powder Factor : 6.05tonnes/Kg

TYPE OF EXPLOSIVE TO BE USED

1. ANFO (AN94%, FO 6%)

2. Slurry Explosive

3. Detonating Fuse

4. Ordinary Detonator /Electric detonator

5. Safety Fuse

STORAGE OF EXPLOSIVES

As mining Operation is on a limited scale, therefore, requirement of

explosive will be very low. No explosive will be stored at the mine site. Explosive

23

required for blasting will be transported from nearby magazine in an approved

explosive van and the residue explosive after blasting will be returned to the same

magazine. There will not be any infrastructure and mining operation in 50mtr

radius of magazine. Suitable provision of fencing, guard huts etc will be done as

per Indian Explosive Act. Blasting operation will be done by blaster / mines

manager appointed by the lessee.

SAFETY PRECAUTIONS: -

1. The position of every deep- hole to be drilled will be distinctly

marked by the foreman so as to be readily seen by the drillers.

2. (a) No drilling will be commenced in an area, where shots have

been fired, until the blaster has made thorough examination at all

places, including remaining butts of the old deep- holes, for

unexploded charges that the drill may strike.

(b) No drill or bore rod or pick will be inserted in the butts of old

deep- holes, even if the examination under clause (a) has failed to

reveal the presence of explosives.

3. (a) Drilling and charging of deep- holes will be carried out in the

same area at the same time.

(b) Drilling operations will not be carried on simultaneously on two

benches, at places directly one above the other.

4. Shots shall not be fired except during hours of day – light.

5. Shotfiring shall be carried out during the rest interval.

6. Before a shot is charged, stemmed or fired, it is ensured that all the

persons have taken proper shelter & also take suitable steps to

prevent any person approaching the shot.

7. Siren will be blown over the entire area falling within a radius of

500m from the place of firing.

8. Two persons will be posted, one in either direction at the two

extreme points of the road lying within the danger zone.

g) MINE DRAINAGE

The mining lease area is plain and country rock is hard, the runoff water

will be low and percolation of water will be high. All the surface water shall be

flowing towards south- western direction and join to a nalla.

24

Mining is proposed above the water table, so there will be no effect on

ground water table. The general ground water table in the area varies from 60- 65

m below the surface level of 333 mRL.

Therefore, ground water table will not be touched during first four years of

mining. Rain water may get accumulated during rainy season. Pumping shall be

done for collected water during rainy season.

h) Surface Plan & Section, etc. (Plate No.-3)

7.2 Waste rock management: -

There is no generation of waste, hence no waste rock management required.

7.3 Reclamation and Rehabilitation: -

There is no overburden material or waste generated during proposed mining so in

absence of it there will be no reclamation of the pit developed. However, for

rehabilitation, this pit will be develop as a water reservoir which will helping recharging

the ground water table of the surrounding area.(Plate No.- 6 & 7).

h) Extent of the area covered and number of saplings to be planted: -

Presently, some local small bushes are found near the mining lease area. During

the period of next four years, about 10 trees /year will be planted. By this, about 0.12 hect

area will be covered under plantation during the next four years. Local species like

Babool, Neem & Kikar will be planted to improve the environment.

MEASURES TAKEN AND TO BE TAKEN FOR LAND RESTORATION ,

RECLAMATION AND PLANTATION IN / OR NEARBY LEASE ARE A

As the area has not been exhausted completely, hence no restoration and reclamation of

land carried out. Lessee planted 10 trees every year but could not survive due to scarcity

of water.

PROGRAMME FOR PLANTATION

The area is mostly rocky with very poor density of vegetation. Plantation will be

carried out in the nearby village in consultation with Gram Panchayat. The total lease area

of 1.00 hect will be degraded due to mining which will be converted into water reservoir

at the end of life of mine in absence of non availability of backfill material.

MEASURES TAKEN AND TO BE TAKEN FOR PROTECTION OF

ENVIRONMENT IN AND AROUND MINING LEASE AREA

Measures have been taken for the protection of environment in and around mining

lease area.

To protect the environment in and around the mining lease area, in the last 10

years the lessee has reportedly planted 10 saplings per year but due to bad climatic

conditions, non availability of top soil and water, the saplings could not survived. The

lessee has also planted some trees near by the approach road but in absence of proper

care, the same could not be survived. However, the proposed plantation for the next four

years it is intended to provide tree guards for each saplings and regular watering.

PROTECTION OF ENVIRONMENT

Existing Land Use Pattern

Marble is mostly occupying the lease area. There is no agriculture land in the lease area.

The mining has been carried out in the govt. waste land. The existing land use pattern is

given in the format.

S. No. Particulars of Area Area in m2

1 Pits & Quarry 6950

2 Dumps of ores, waste and O.B. Nil

3 Infrastructure inclusive of

Office, workshop and plants Nil

4 Road Nil

5. Virgin Area 3050

Total Area

(i) Water Regime

There is no river, nalah, pond etc. within the lease area. It is a plain area.

Reportedly, the water table is about 60- 65 m below the general surface. The quality of

water of a well outside the lease area at about 1 km from the mine site is reportedly

normal and potable.

(ii) Flora & Fauna

Scanty local bushes are there in the area, which are grown during rainy season.

There is no other fauna observed and reported in and around the lease area.

(iii) Forest

Few bushes can be seen in the area. Moreover there is no demarcated/protected

forest close to the Lease area. The protected wildlife animal in & around Lease area is

also not present.

(iv) Climatic Condition

The area is characterized by semi arid type with an average annual rainfall of

about 565 mm. which is mainly received during July to September.

The minimum temp recorded as 1.4º during winter whereas maximum temp

recorded during summer is 47º C. General Wind direction is south west to north east.

10000 m2

28

(v) Public buildings, places and monuments

No such buildings, places and monuments exist in or nearby the area.

(vi) Quality of Air

The air quality is free from any pollutant.

Impact of mining

The sources of air pollution in the area due to mining will be mainly from dust

generation by plying of trucks and dumpers on unpaved mine road. The dust is also

generated during drilling whereas quality of air is affected due to emission of gases from

different machineries and Smoke generated during blasting which is momentarily, &

occasionally.

Remedies

Water spray is being carried out occasionally over the excavated material as well

as on the haul road to minimize the dust during loading & transportation.

ENVIRONMENT

Impact of mining on the Environment: The common adverse effect of mining on

environment is as under:

(A) Land Environment

(i) Land Scape

The landscape of this lease area has been changed by current mining

operations. It will further increase due to proposed mining in the area. The total

area of the lease which will be disturbed at the end of the proposed four years of

mining will be around 1.00 hect upto a depth of 299 mRL.

(ii) Aesthetic Environment

At present, the area is rugged and plain. It has no aesthetic beauty. Due to

mining of Marble, a little aesthetic environment may change for the area and the

surroundings.

(iii) Soil and Land Use Pattern

There is no soil cover in the area. By mining of Marble a little land use is changed

due to pit excavation.

(iv) Agriculture

29

The mining is being done on Govt. waste land and will be continued in

Govt. waste land only so there will be no impact on agriculture.

(v) Forest

The mining lease area does not fall in any type of forest land. No forest

within core and buffer zone falls, so there is no impact takes place on the forest.

(vi) Vegetation

There is no vegetation in the mining lease area. Some seasonal bushes are

there which has no importance, so no effect is taking place by mining activities on

vegetation.

(vii) Public Building, Places and Monuments

No public building, places of monuments etc. are there in or nearby the

lease area, so there will be no effect by mining activities on any public building,

places and monuments.

CHAPTER – 12

MEASURE TAKEN AND TO BE TAKEN FOR DUMPING OVERBURDE N,

STACKING OF TOP SOIL AND UTILISATION OF TOP SOIL

Measures Taken for, Stacking of Top Soil and Utilization of Top Soil: -

There is no top soil to be stacked separately and utilized. So it does not require any

measures to be taken for stacking and utilization.

DISPOSAL OF WASTE

Nature of Waste: -

There is no waste generated due to mining of Marble (Khanda) so question does not arise

for its disposal.

30

CHAPTER – 13

MEASURE TAKEN AND TO BE TAKEN FOR THE CONTROL OF WA TER,

NOISE AND AIR POLLUTION

Surface Water: - There is no source of surface water in and around the mining lease area.

So no measure is required to control it.

Ground Water: - The proposed mine working is up to 299 mRL which is far above the

general ground water table, hence no measures is required to control it.

Water Quality

No impact will take place due to mining activities on water quality, as no toxic or

polluted water will be discharged. The pit depth will also not go below water table.

Noise Pollution

In the proposed mining the use of machines like excavator and dumper will

produce some noise. To control these noises the machines will be regularly maintained

properly by greasing, oiling etc. as well as providing protective equipments to all the mine

workers.

(i) Noise

31

The source of the noise in mining particularly in this area can be due to

(1) Mobile plant (Drilling, running of compressors etc.)

(2) External Transport Plant related with supply of material running of trucks and

dumpers etc.

(3) Explosive detonation, Sound waves etc.

No sound pollution will be caused by above source, as the sound generated will be

kept within permissible limit. The blasting will not be done at high scale and hence

practically no ground vibration will take place. The noise level during blasting will be

high but it will be for momentarily. Scientific blasting will be adopted hence ground

vibration will not take place.

Air Pollution

(i) Dust

The impact on the air due to mining activities can take place by following

activities

Formation of Dust: following reason makes Formation of dust:

(a) Drilling and blasting operation,

(b) Running of external transport machinery like dumpers, trucks in the mining area,

blasting operation. Due to small scale mining impact will be very low in the form of small

amount of air borne dust.

(ii) Climatic Condition

Climatic condition of the area will not change by mining activities, as the mining

activities will be of a very limited nature, so there will be no impact of mining on climatic

condition.

32

CHAPTER – 14

CONTRIBUTION REGARDING THE SOCIAL DEVELOPMENT OF TH E

NEARBY RESIDENTS

(A) Social Development

(i) Social and Demographic Profile

In the proposed mining there will be direct employment of 25 persons so

considering a family of 4 members for each employee the social development will be for

100 persons. Other than this indirectly about 50 % will also be benefited by proposed

mining so it is proposed that the lessee should spend 1% of profit for the development of

the area by donating the amount for development on education, cultural and other social

activities of the community near by the mine site.

(ii) Occupational Health and Safety

Due to proposed mining during drilling and transportation there may be dust

generation so to prevent the occupational disease, the measure as proposed in drilling

operation in will be taken, which, will prevent inhalation of the dust by the workers. The

33

workers will be periodically medically examined as required under Rule 29(b) of Mines

Rule. If any worker found to have any occupational disease he will be immediately

provided with proper medical care as per provision of Mines Rule.

Safety

To prevent the worker getting any injury during work following measure will be taken:

(i) The workers will be trained by periodical vocational training programs. They will be

given proper training in particular work area/ field.

(ii) The workers will be provided proper safety wearing and equipments such as hand

gloves, safety boots, helmets, and lifeline jackets etc.

(iii) Proper & systematic benches will be formed. Apart from this, all safety precaution

will be taken as per Mines Act, Rules, Regulation and Byelaws made there under.

(iii) Human Settlement

There is no human settlement within and around 500 m. periphery of the lease area.

The workers will be hired from the nearby village and only day shift working has been

proposed so, it will raise the living standards of the nearby inhabitants.

(iv) Recreational Facility

Presently there is no recreational facility available. The lessee is proposing to have

in-house recreational facilities like carom, ludo, chess and video games.

Post Plantation Care:

i) Protection from Grazing

It is proposed to keep 1 casual labor to water the plants, there protection from

grazing, erecting fencing etc. regularly.

(ii) Watering during Dry Spell

It is proposed to plant 10 trees/ year of Babool, Neem & Khakra, though these

trees will require very less water but, in the first year from April to July, the watering will

be done by the daily casual worker and October to March thrice in a week by deploying

water tanker. Thereafter, each year watering will be done alternate day & during dry spell

once in daily.

(iii) Manuring

The local manuring will be done once in forth night after plantation work is taken up.

34

(iv) Protective measures will be taken on pre and post plantation period to control pest

like white ant etc. After a few months liquid pesticide mixed with 100 times water will be

spread over the planted saplings.

(v) Replenishment of Casualties

The loss of each year will be counted and in subsequent plantation casualties will be again

planted at same place. This way in the end of 4th year 40 healthy trees will remain be there

in the area.

CHAPTER – 15

DETAIL OF HEALTH CHECKUP AND INSURANCE OF ALL THE

EMPLOYED PERSONS (FOR EXISTING LEASE)

Initial and periodical Medical examination will be conducted annually for every person

employed in the mines 25% of the total employee get examined medically every year, so

that all the person employed in the mine get examined within four years as per Mines

rules-1955.
