major minerals, by State of Haryana, over an area of 24.3O Hecares of land in village Donkhera,

Dist. Mahendergarh w.e.f. 29.8.200L for a period of 20 years. However an area of 19'50 Hectares'

either covered by Aravalli project plantation or mining was not feasible due to non-continuity of

area, was not available mining. Accordingly the lessee retained an area of 4.80 hectares and

surrendered 19.50 hectares of area. subsequently, the lease was transferred in favor of M/s

Xandy Mines & Minerals and a transfer deed was executed. A Mining Plan along with Progressive

Mine closure plan for the area of 4.80 Hectares as per requirement of Rule 22(4) of Mineral

conservation Rules, 1g60 read with 23 (B) &(F) of MCDR, 1988 was got approved from the

GEOTOGY & RESERVES

3.1.1 Physiography, Drainage and Climate

The general slope of the land of southern most part of the districted Mohindergarh is

from south to north. The Krishnawati River which passing through the district is

originated from the hillocks of Sikar district of Rajasthan. This is a seasonal river which

remains dry except during rainy days. Physiographicaly, the district consists of flat and

level plain interrupted from place to place by clusters of sand dunes, isolated hillocks

and rocky ridges. A few isolated rocky ridges elevated sharply from the plain occur in the

southern most portion of the district.\,

The lease area is consists of Hilly terrain. The highest point in the lease area is recorded

to be 385 MRL and the lowest point recorded is 355 MRL'

The lease area does not have any water body. There are dry nalas in which water flows

during rains for a short dura.tion, otherwise they remain dry for the rest of the months.

The rain water from these nalahas drains either into local Johars or in agriculture fields.

3.t.2 HydrogeologY

The geological formation met within the district is phyllites, mica schist and quartzite of

Delhi system. Ground water occurs in alluvium and Aeolian sands and under lying

jointed and fractured hard rock formations also form the aquifers, in alluvium, sands,

silt, and hard bed rock. ln-shallow aquifers zones, ground water occurs under water

table conditions where as in the deeper zones, confined/semi - confined condition exist,

hard rocks comprising of Aravalli group of rocks, Malani suite of volcanics and Alwar

euartzite's of Delhi system are water bearing but have yet not been explored

thoroughly. The depth of water table varies from 40m to 80 m in the district. The water

table is deeper in the south part of the district where as it is sh

The climate of Mohindergarh district can be classified as tropical steppe' semi -arid and

hot which is mainly dry with very hot summer and cold winter except during monsoon

season when moist air of oceanic origin penetrates into the district' There are four

seasons in a year. The hot weather season starts from mid March to last week of the

June followed by the south- west monsoon which lasts up to september' The transit ion

period from september to october forms the post -monsoon season' The winter season

starts late in November and remains up to first week of March' The normal annual

rainfall of the district is 499 mm which is unevenly distributed over the area 22 days'

The south west monsoon sets in from last week of June and withdraws in end of

September, contributed about 85% ofannual rainfall' July and August are the wet test

4.L Pitbesign Parameters:-

ln view of the geological setting of the deposit it is proposed to work the mine by

machines open cast mine usirig shovel and dumper combination' The rate of production

is proposed 1, 25,OOO MT/Dolomite and about 2OOOOO MT RM & MS per year during

the plan period by the following mentioned parameters so that not only the production

is achieved but mine also takes a proper / regular shape and size '

4.L.i Ultimate pit slope: -

\

The dolomite & quartzite rock is hard and compact. Once the pits reach the ultimate

limit, it is necessary that it does not start collapsing due to weathering and other effects.

This can be achieved by planning ultimate pit slope at a maximum of 70 degree to avoid

collapse of the pit sides. There is no overburden except a thin sol cover. Entire mineral

produced will be useful.

4.1.ii Bench height and width

Since the host rock quartzite and miral dolomite are hard and compact, the same

parameters are considered for making benches.

ln view of mechanized method of mining to be adopted, the bench height is proposed

6.0mtrs and bench width 6 mtrs.

Formation of benches in this manner will

the ultimate pit position.

4.1.iii Face length :-

result in an overall safe slope of 700 or less in

t9

The following parameters have been followed to arrive at the face length to facilitate

the required production of 1,25,000 MT dolomite and about 2,00,000 MT RM & MS

mineral Since two pit are planned to developed in the area to obtain targeted

production, the optimum face length available along the strike length is sufficient to

cater to the optimum production required.

4.l.iv Bench alignment: -

The benches are gradually aligned to give a regular shape. ln general the benches will

.iVrn." in all directions parallel to each other. Since geological formation in the area

are of simple nature, there will not be difficulty in maintaining the proposed bench

alignment.

4.1.V Depth of pit:

The reserves up to 40 m depth are sufficient to cater the needs of the applicant. Further

the water table is about 50 m below the general ground surface and as per the norms

and the guidelines of the State Government, no mining will be undertaken below the

level of 2 meter above ground water table of the area. The reserves will not be depleted

during the lease period

4.2.O General Consideration

In order to exploit optimum mineral with proper mine safety the bencPfqffrffllwill be 6 m. Width and 6m height. / '";:::*--7:!'!u

CHAPTER 6

MINE DRAINAGE

5.1 GENERAL:

open cast mining projects requires effective arrangements for drainage and provision of

adequate deyvatering capacity in the pits under mining' ln the area under mining water

can reach the workings from surface drainage, rainwater and due to seepage through

joints and fissures. Therefore, the problem can be solved by preventing drainage water

from entering the pits on one hand and pumping out the percolated and direct rain

waterfromthepitsontheothqrhand.Thegeneralwatertablearoundtheleaseareaat

45 meters below ground'

6.2DrainageAroundandWithinMine:

1)

The hill is mainly sloping both east and west direction' The mining area will become a

depression during the next 5 years, which warrant accumulation of water during rainy

season.Aschemeisproposedtopreventtheaccumulationofsuchwater.

shall be slightly sloped towards the sump so that the entire drain water goes to the

sump.

3) The working faces will be advanced with a mild upward gradient to facilitate the

drainage. The water shall be gradually drained from the upper most bench to the lowest

bench and then ultimately to the sump.

4) Similarly in the ultimate pit position, large sump will be provided at the pit bottom to

accumulate drained water as well as direct rain water.

6.3

6.4.

DEWATERING:

Since the depth of mining proposed is well above the valley level and water table, there

will be no chance of encountering the ground water table during the mining operations.

Hence normal-pumping operations will be required during the monsoon season only.

The water accumulates within the pits will be due to direct rainfall over the pit and

seepage from adjoining areas, if any.

. The average rainfall of the district during all these years is 499 mm only.

6.4.L An examination of the above reveals that the rainy season extends from June to

September. Although in the above period under consideration there has been rainfall in

other months also, but it can be considered as stray occurrence and will not after all

proposed pumPing scheme.

6.4.2 The water to be pumped out from the open pits will be

precipitation over the open pits and seepage. The water due

depend upon the rainfall and the area of the pit.

CHAPTER 7

STACKING OF MINEAL REJECTS AND DISPOSAL OF WASTE

7.L Year wise generation of waste:

The overburden and quartzite will be needed to be removed for systematic mining and

development of dolomite. The following quantities will be generated yearly.

\I

Year Overburden Quartzite ( MT)

7.2

Rejects: - Entire quartzite produced as overburden is usable/salable, hence stacking will

not be required. However, about 5-IO% of the waste material which will not find

market/use will be stacked separately or will be used in maintaining mine

haulage roads.

Maximum Height and Slope of Dumps

The area ear - marked for the stacking the mineral power mixed finer material of stone

is 7.5 x30m as shown in Plate no 4-8 which can accommodate at least 1000 MT of

material. ln the present case soil generated containd fine powder of quartzite; the same

dump may attain a maximum height of 3 mtr. With gentle slopes of 300. Tow walls

drains around dumps are proposed to safeguard the dumps

7.3 Dump Yard for mineral

It is proposed to have a dump yard for mineral (size 7.5 x 100m)

As it is not always possible to directly send the mineral to the crushers/ consumers. lt is

proposed to stack the mineral in the event of less demand or any other reasons to store

the mineral in the dump yard. The height of the dump yard may attain a maximum of 3

mtrs. With moderate slope.of 39 degrees. This can accommodate about 25,000 MT

mineral.

The location of the dump yard is shown in plate no.4-8.

The annual quantum for construction of retaining walls/ dump yards for soil and mineral

will be done during plan peridU. The length of the soil stack yard and dumping yard walls

will be 200m and 25omtr. all along with height of one meter. Rest of the height will be

made in the coming years as per the requirements of dumps. The thickness of the wall

will be half meter.

Mineral Beneficiation

lq,view of the availability of direct market for Dolomite R.O.M., presently there is no

proposal of beneficiation. R.O.M. Mineral will be sold to various crushers located in the

area. Dolomites will be sold in the form of lumps to the crusher owners.

Road Metal & Masonry stone has direct local market for crushing and making of various

sized crushed material. '

35

CHAPTER 10

Surface Transport

The transportation of mineral from pit head / stock yard to the consumer end crushers

/ traders will be carried out by the trucks of purchaser of generally 25 MT Capacity.

There is all weather metalled road and then a katcha road right up to mines to dispatch

the material from mines to the market. lt will be purchased by the parties at mine site

and transported by them through their own arrangement of trucks. The practice is quite

sbund in the area and ensure continuous lifting of the material. Customers/purchasers

come with transport arrangement of their own. However necessary arrangement of

trucks can be done from the nearby truck operators union available at Narnaul.

Land Environment:

Land Scape

Major part of the area is virgin with only 0.19 hectares covered by old working

pits. The dwelling houses of the nearby villages are about 0.5 to 5km away from

the lease area.

13.2.A.ii Aesthetic Environment

The panoramic view of the lease hold area reveals that the area has only one

ridge.since the present mining plan envisages the proper and systematic

development of working and future alignment of the pits, the area will look nice.

13.2.A.iiii Soil and Land Use Pattern

The area under reference has thin soil cover or a very thin

Forest :

There is no forest land in the lease hold area. Therefore, there is no impact of

mining on the forestation except the proposal for additional plantation program

which will enrich the aesthetic beauty of the area.

Vegetation and Wild life :

There is vegetation in the area as already explained. The mining activities has no

adverse impact on the vegetation as the same shall be taken care of by growing

additional vegetation, which is suspected to be destroyed due to mining. The

same shall be compensated by planned plantation over dumping places. Since

the present vegetation is of very poor quality the adverse impact will be

negligible. However the proposed plantation will ameliorate the vegetation.

The area is not inhabitant by any significant wild life except stray existence of

animals like Jungle rat, mangoes jackals etc. reptiles like snakes, lizard and birds

like pigeon, bet etc and insects like scorpion spider etc. Due to stray population

of wild life there will be no significant effect on the wild life due to mining.

Moreover, the growth of vegetation of dumps etc. shall provide additional home

for these stray animals.

By adopting the proposed reclamation plan, envisaging liberal plantation

vegetation of mixed species, it is expected to provide congenial habitant

promote wild life. After abandoning the mining operations the area can

converted into a bird sanctuary or a fish farm by having the close liaison with

state Govt. authorities.

Surface Water and Ground Water.

There is no perennial drainage system in the mining area and while planning due

care for drainage has been given. No significant effect on surface water regime is

expected. The water table in this area occurs below 45-50 below general surface.

Hence there will be no effect on the hydrology of the area as the working will not

reach the water table. However, there may be some affect on the seasonal

nallahs, which drain the precipitated water flowing from the area.

Further it is proposed to make necessary arrangements for developing rainwater

harvesting of the mine water during rainy season. lt is proposed to develop

necessary bores and pits for this purpose. Thus rain water harvesting will

ameliorate the ground water of the area.

Water quality

There is no water .orrr", in the area except dry nallahs .The precipitated water

also flows along the depressions formed in between the outcrop of country

rocks. The water table in the area is about 45-50mtrs. Below the ground surface.

Noise :

No test has been carried out to determine the present noise level. However,

since this is an isolated area without any industry the existing noise level in this

area is well below the level at which normal speech communication may be

interfered .The creation of vegetation barrier around the u:"&sff&"ryg"

Since mechanized mining is proposed for removal of over burden as well as for

winning of mineral there are chances of environment Pollution due to

mechanized mining. The quartzite/ Dolomite mining will be done by drilling with

the help of Jack Hammer drills and blasting by using explosives like ANFO,

ordinary detonators & substitutes. The proposed mining will not deteriorate the

air quality except generation of dust .The dust with air borne may affect the

quality of air

Dust

The dust generation during drilling will be reduced by wet drilling. The dust

generated during blasting will be minimized by water spay at the working faces

before and after the blasting. The dust generated by excavation will also be

controlled by spraying of water at the working faces. Dust generated due to

plying of vehicles on mine roads will be dealt with by regular sprinkling of water

on the roads. The sprinkling water will be done at short intervals using only a

small quantity of water at each time Just sufficient to wet the surface. Further

the vehicles used for transportation of the mineral will not be overloaded to

prevent generation of airborne dust during their movement.

The speed of the movement of the vehicles will also be controlled to minimize

generation of excess dust. Further as far as possible transport of mineral from

the mines will not be done during the evening hours of summer season when the

relative humidity is low and wind speed is high. The volume of airborne dust

raised from the waste dumps will be kept under control by growing grass and

vegetation.

Further plantation of grass is proposed on the surface of the dump slopes to

improve its quality and to restrict soil erosion.

Proposalfor reclamation of land affected by mining activities during and at the

end of mining lease period.( Plate no.9)

Land reclamation is the single broad environmental protection system which will

provide protection and control of most of the adverse environmental impacts of

mining and also have improvement of aesthetic beauty of the area which will be

denuded due to mining activity. As a result of mining of this deposit the original

ground profile will be lowered and deep depressions will be created. Further at

some selected places the ground will be covered as waste dumps. Besides this

the hydrographic system may be affected due to wash-off. Based on these

conditions it is proposed to improve the effected land wherever possible for

better land use, so a.6 to support forestry and creation of water reservoir etc.

Accordingly, the land reclamation portion shall be done by planting trees on the

dumps along the roads surroundings the office building on the waste barren land

and in the open pits when they reach their ultimate stage.

Aforestation/ Green belt

The lease area is hilly terrain devoid of any vegetation. Mining activities will not

cause any harm to riparian vegetation cover as the working will not extend

beyond the lease area. Land outside is the private agriculture land. Link road

from the mines to the main road passes through the agriculture area. lt is

proposed to have plantation on both sides of the roads as greenbelt to provide

cover against dust dissemination. Plantation will also be carried out as social

forestry OrorrrrrJin villages, school and the areas allocated by the

Panchayat/ State authorities. Native plants like Neem, Pipal, Khejri, Ber and

other local species will be planted. A suitable combination of trees that can

grow fast and also have good leaf cover shall be adopted to develop the

greenbelt. lt is proposed to plant 1000 no's of native species along with some

fruit bearing and medicinal trees during the plan period.

care. For carrying out the actual work of a forestation, sapling plantation,

mulching, construction of drains and tanks and other maintenance work, casual

labour will be deployed as and when necessary.

Program of A Forestation

The forestation will be done proposed earlier. Plant saplings will be obtained

from private/ Govt nunseries. During the forestation work the combination of

different type of species will be done on the area ear marked for plantation in

green belt & in the surrounding areas.

The area is demarcated on the plan plat No 4-8. The tree plantation will be made

all along the mine approach roads surrounding the site services. This will cover

about 0.60 ha land. About 200 trees per year will be planted on the above area.

The annual area covered will be 0.12 hectares. The survival rate is expected 70%

therefore the saplings / plats which dies will be replace in addition to the plants

proposed above.

The source of NOx is due to vehicular emission. This can be controlled by propermaintenance and servicing of vehicles. Only P.U.C. certificated vehicles will be permitted

Noise Pollution

There is drilling and blasting for mineral extraction. Noise pollution due to drilling,

blasting & transportation will cause some problem to the inhabitants of this area

because there is human settlement in close proximity to the link roads in lease area.

Effective steps will be taken to keep the noise level well below the

limit of 35 dBA.

Noise control is achieved by the following:

Proper care and maintenance of the equipments will be carried

Personal protective equipments will be provided to the workers.
