1. INTRODUCTION
Bastar District is situated in south eastern part of the State of Chhattishgarh
in Central India. The District is surrounded by District Kondagaon in north,
District Bijapur and Dantewada in west and District Sukma in south and in east
and south east by Koraput district of neighbouring Odisha state. It falls in Survey
of India, toposheet Nos. 65 E, F, I and J and bounded between 18º 40´ to 19º 35´
North latitude and 81º 20 ́to 82º 15´ East longitudes.
Jagdalpur is the District and Divisional Headquarter. Bastar District is

Bastanar, Bakawand, Darbha, Tokapal and Lohandiguda. The district headquarter
Jagdalpur is situated on National Highway NH-30(earlier known as NH-43)
connecting Raipur and Visakhapatnam of Andhra Pradesh via Koraput of Odisha
State and Kottavalsa-Kirandul Branch line of South Eastern Railway connecting
Visakhapatnam and Kirandul via Dantewara.
Bastar District has an area of 4029.98 square kilometres. Apart from
Jagdalpur, some of the major town/villages of the district are Darbha, Tokapal,

2. OVERVIEW OF MINING ACTIVITY IN THE DISTRICT
Mineral of economic importance found in Bastar district is mainly
Limestone. Flagstone and building materials like sand, murrum, ordinary
stone and brick clay are also found in good quantity.
In all, 16 mining lease of limestone have been sanctioned out of which
two are for cutting and polishing / dimensional stone purpose. Apart from
these 81 quarry leases have been sanctioned out of which 72 are of limestone,
8 of ordinary stone and one is of flagstone.
The mining activity in the district is mainly concentrated in Jagdalpur,
Bastar, Darbha, Tokapal, Lohandiguda and Bastanar tehsil.
Eleven sand quarries have been leased out on the river bed of Indravati,
Markandi, Narangi and Bhaskali at different villages for sand mining.16 other
locations of sand mines have been shortlisted which requires environment
permission.
Approximately 1033.31 lakh rupees royalty is earned from all minerals
in the district in 2015-16.

5. DETAIL OF PRODUCTION OF SAND OR BAJRI IN LAST THREE YEARS
Mostly the sand is mined from the bank of river Indravati, Markandi, Boria,
Narangi and Bhaskali at villages Kalcha, Balenga, Dubeyumergaon, Bade Amabal,
Bajawand, Tikanpal, Sonarpal, Talnar, Tarapur and Belgaon.
S. No Financial Year Total Sand Production (in Cubic meter)
1. 2013-14 Nil
2. 2014-15 9400
3. 2015-16 2825
6. PROCESS OF DEPOSITION OF SEDIMENTS IN THE RIVERS OF THE DISTRICT
Some important factors which play major role in the process of
sedimentation in a river basin are the stage of river development (the infant, youth,
mature or old stage), lithology and structures of the upstream region or provenance
from where sediments eroded / migrated / travelled, geomorphology and gradient
of provenance, other external activities such as mining, industrialization and mega
engineering projects such as Dam also affects the process of sedimentation and the
thickness of the sequence is determined by the depth of the stream channel during
flood stage and is related to the size of river itself. The major river of the district is
Indravati. It originates in Ghats of Dandakaranya range, in the Kalahandi district of
the state of Odisha, The River follows a westerly path and enters Jagadalpur in the
state of Chhattisgarh. The river moves from here in a southern route, before
eventually uniting with the Godavari. It is the largest river in the district. It is very
shallow in depth but sometimes it creates havoc during rain. Other major rivers of
the district are Markandi and Narangi.
The most suitable place for accumulation of sand is the curve of meandering
of river where the river current’s flow diminishes and centrifugal force creates
conducive atmosphere for deposition of sediments.

9. PHYSIOGRAPHY OF THE DISTRICT
Physiographically, the district exhibits structural plains with
denudational plateaux with denudational slopes, structural plains and pediments /
pediplains, older and younger flood plains. Most of the area of the district forms a
part of Indravati Basin. Indravati river and its tributaries constitute the surface
drainage system in most of the area with a general gradient towards east direction,
while Kanger river constitute the drainage system in south eastern extent of the
district with general gradient towards south.

11. GEOLOGY AND MINERAL WEALTH
GEOLOGY
Rock formations ranging in age from Archaean to Cainozoic are exposed in
the District. The oldest rocks in the area are represented by Bengpal Group of
Archaean age and are exposed in north eastern, south eastern and western part of
district. They also occur as remnant inliers in the Dongargarh granite. Bengpal
group comprises various types of gneisses and schists, amphibolites, meta- basic,
meta-ultramafic, quartzo-feldspathic granulite, charnockite and different varieties
of quartzite like pyroxene quartzite, cherty quartzite, banded magnetite quartzite
and grunerite magnetite quartzite.
Bailadila Group of Paleo Proterozoic age exposed in the southern and
western parts of District comprises of hornblende schist, amphibolite, ferruginous
phyllite, banded haematite quartzite and banded haematite jasper.
Dongargarh granite of Paleo Proterozoic age is exposed in the central part of
the district running from north to south and varies in composition from biotite
granite, hornblende-biotite granite, amphibole granite to leucogranite. The Bengpal
and Abujhmar group of rocks and Dongargarh granite are profusely intruded by
basic dykes and quartz/pegmatite/aplite reefs/veins.
Abujhmar group of Paleo to Meso Proterozoic age is exposed in the western
of the district. It is further divided into Gundal and Maspur formations. Maspur
Formation is a meta-volcanic sequence whereas Gundal Formation is a
sedimentary sequence comprising conglomerate, sandstone and shale. Tulsi
Dongar Group considered as equivalent to the Abujhmar group is exposed in the
south eastern part of district and comprises meta-basalt/gabbro, sandstone and
quartzite.
34
Indravati Group of Meso to Neo Proterozoic age is divided into Tirathgarh
and Jagdalpur formations. Tirathgarh Formation is exposed in the south
eastern and northern parts of district and comprises shale, sandstone, quartzite,
sub-arkose and thin beds of conglomerate. Jagdalpur Formation is exposed in the
south eastern part of district and comprises shale and limestone.
Laterite of Cainozoic age forming capping over the Bengpal, Abujhmar and
Indravati group of rocks is marked in the western, northern and south eastern parts
of the district.
MINERAL WEALTH
The important economic mineral deposits/occurences reported in the district
are mainly limestone, dolomite, iron ore, copper and clay. Copper is reported from
Kesarpal area. Iron ore is reported from Chhotte Dongar area. Fairly large deposits
of white/ buff /variegated clay suitable for low grade pottery occur in Raikot,
Manganpur, Kotamsar, Jojal and Kokra Dongri. Major deposits of limestone are
reported in Kanger belt from Dhurvaras to Kotomsar, Potanar, Baranji, Rajur,
Sivni-Alnar and Piplawand area.
