PART-A 2. GEOLOGY & EXPLORATION

a) Briefly describe the topography and General Geology and local mine Geology of the

mineral deposit including drainage pattern:

i) Topography:

From the Topo sheet No. 57 B / 8 following topographic features can be observed.

The applied area is located in Government Kharab land.

The terrain is slightly undulated due North.

No roads pass through the applied area.

No human settlements within or in the vicinity of the applied area. The nearest

village is at 1.00 kms distance.

A Seasonal Nalla has been found in the North direction flowing to South- West which

joins the nearby Tank.

The highest elevation at North portion of the site and lowest elevation at South corner

in the area are 769 mts and 781 mts respectively, having an elevation difference of

12.0 mts.

For survey purposes, a temporary bench mark (TBM) with 771.2 mts RL is considered

at South-East corner of the area and the same is shown in the Plate. No.3 & 4 (Surface

& Geological plan).

ii) Regional Geology:

Regionally the area is of Grey and other varieties of Granites and granitic gneiss

found in Chitradurga Taluk, of homogenous, soft Grey Granites with uniform color

and structure formed of gneiss and Granites exposed in the form of hillocks, boulders

outcrops followed by sheet rocks. Some Dykes are generally running North-South

direction and are cutting across the country rock and runs for several kilometers as

Building Stone Quarry

Page 8

discontinuous outcrop along the strike direction. The granitic gneisses huge

formations spread all over the Taluk.

iii) Local / Mine Geology:

Chitradurga Taluk, formation consists of series of slightly hilly ridges of granite and

gneissic Granites, some dykes are also intruded. The general formation is striking N-S

direction and showing foliation and banded in nature. The availability of Grey Granitic

in the area is Light bluish in color running N-S direction with uniform color, medium

to coarse grain. The exposures are seen as boulders with bedded formations and

followed by sheet rock. Grey Granitic sheet rock outcrops are exposed in the surface in

the trial pit.

The geological setting of the area is composed of gneisses and granitic gneiss of heavy

terrain of both these formations is intruded by Dykes. The different lithogical units in

this area are as follows:

Soil Cover

Dolerite Dyke

Quartz / Pegmatites

Granites

Amphibolites

Granites quartz magnetic

Granitic gneisses.

Older Metamorphic rocks.

The Grey granitic gneissic rocks are found granitic gneissic complex spread all over the

Taluk. Some Dykes are also found cutting across peninsular gneissic complex. The

Grey Granitic deposits are found in the form of boulders on the surface, followed by

Grey Granite sheet rocks. Even the sheet rocks also have discontinuous layers which

enable for easy quarrying.

(i) The Topographic plan of the applied area is prepared in 1:1000 RF with 1 mts contour

interval. For survey purpose, a temporary bench mark (TBM) with an elevation of 771.2 mts

Building Stone Quarry

Page 9

RL is considered in the area and the same is used as base for the preparation of surface and

geological plan and shown in Plate. No.3 & 4.

(ii) Details of exploration already carried out:

As already discussed the thickness of granite varies from 30 mts to 100 mts, no need to do

any further exploration. Road cuttings and cuttings in the Bore wells show the presence of

granite extensively in the surrounding areas.

c) Geological cross sections are drawn on a scale of 1:1000 RF. All the exposures are marked

on the section and enclosed as Plate. No.5.

d) Future programme of exploration:

Since the thickness of granite varies from 30 mts to 100 mts, covers very vast area, no need

to do any further exploration.

e) Method of Estimation of Reserves:

The reserves estimation has been made based on potential zone marked on the

geological plan and cross sections. The norms of Reserve estimation are of counting

squares of sectional areas marked on the cross sections. About 14,21,134 Ts of

‘Geological Reserves’ are estimated. In order to meet the various statutory

requirement some part of the License area cannot be excavated i.e 7.5 mtrs safety

zone area along the Mining license boundary & after deducting the quantity of Non

Mineable area, Mineable reserves estimated are 8,97,447 Ts. The details of reserve

estimation are as follows:

Equipment:

0.5 Cum excavator ………………………………………… 1 No

10 tonnes tipper …………………………………………..…1 No

Justification for requirement of haulage equipment with calculations:

Total max., tonnage handling per year 26,136

Number of working days 300

Number of shifts /day 1

Daily average handling in tonnes 87

Capacity of shovel 0.5 Cum

Effective handling hours/day 6.5

Bucket fill factor 0.80

Swell factor 0.80

System utility factor 0.50

Cycle time of shovel 45sec

Hence handling in 6.5 hrs shift 0.8x0.8x0.5x0.5=0.16 x2.66 (B.D.) =0.4256

in 45 seconds. i.e. = 0.4256 x 60/45

b. Transport from mine head to the destination:

The transport from mine head to the consumer is trough hired tippers / trucks /

tractor trailer by road.

4. Miscellaneous: - Nil –

4. BLASTING

a) & b) Broad blasting parameters & type of explosives to be used:

Building Stone Quarry

Page 15

Considering the facts that the Building Stone requires blasting for its extraction and

that class II explosives are to be used, the powder factor can be estimated to be 6

tonnes per Kg. of explosives.

The explosive required per annum at a powder factor of 6 tonnes/ kg will be

26,136/6t/kg = 4,356 Kgs (say). It is proposed to use slurry explosive. The charge per

hole is 500gms; charging will be by safety fuse with the combination of Ordinary

detonators and slurry explosive; handling – tie up with the explosive suppliers (sale,

possesses and use of explosives); system of initiation – ordinary detonators.

Depending upon the requirement of the size of lumps, to dislodge the same, drilling

will be done in a single row by jack hammer. Drilled holes will be filled by the

Cracking agent, where next day the lumps gets dislodge by the main rock mass.

In addition, we require about 12,289 mts of safety fuse and 8,193 number of ordinary

detonators for initiation purpose. As only few holes (max 10 / round) will be blasted

at one time, no significant air blast or vibrations will be envisaged. However, since

the area is surrounded by an agricultural land, if required, sand bags/ mud bags will

be kept on holes and will be muffled in order to prevent the flying rocks.

c) Powder factor: The detailed calculations showing the powder factor in this area is as

follows.

Spacing 1.00m

Burden 1.00m

Depth of the hole 1.50m

Bulk density 2.66t/Cum

Blasting efficiency 80%

Therefore, the powder factor 1.00mx1.00mx1.5mx0.8x2.66 t/cum=3.19 tonnes for 0.5kg explosive

For 1 kg Explosive 6.38 say 6 t/kg

Therefore each hole give us 1.00mx1.00mx1.5mx0.80x2.66 t/cum=3.19 tonnes ROM

The ROM to be handled 26,136 TPA

No of holes required 26,136/3.19 = 8,193 Nos

Building Stone Quarry

Page 16

Total drilling required 8,193 x 1.5m= 12,289 mts

One Jack Hammer can give 40,000 m/Annum

No of Jack Hammer required 1Nos

d) Whether secondary blasting is needed, if so, describe in brief:

In case of boulders bigger than half a cubic meter, are broken after an initial blasting.

25 mm x 200mm cartridges of 140 gms shall be used for such secondary blasting.

e) Storage of Explosive:

Explosive will not be stored in the mine since the entire Handling and blasting

operations will be carried out by a licensed contractor who sell, possess and use of

explosives having a magazine with license. Blasting operations will be carried out

where ever it is permitted in the quarry License. Otherwise the extraction is by

heating and cracking process.

However, if it becomes necessary, applicant will take necessary permission from the

Competent Authority for using and storage of explosives. Explosive magazine of

25kg will be installed with the permission to use 10 kg ammonium nitrate/day.

5. MINE DRAINAGE

a) On the observation from nearby bore wells, likely depth of water table is 90 mts from

surface. But the License area is in a hilly terrain and the mining will not reach the

ground level.

b) Working expected to reach 764 mts RL level during plan period

c) Quantity and quality of water likely to be encountered, their pumping arrangement

and places where this mine water is finally proposed to be discharged.

As such there is no possibility for encountering any underground water source

during the plan period. Any rain water, accumulated in the pit during monsoon, will

be naturally drained within 2 or 3 days.

6. STACKING OF MINERAL REJCETS AND DISPOSAL OF WASTE:

a) The nature and quality of top-soil, over burden waste and mineral rejects likely to be

removed during the next five years:

Soil of 1.0 m will be generated from the Quarry area. It is proposed to handle about

2633 tonnes of waste, and will be utilized for strengthening the approach roads

7. USE OF MINERAL:

a) The Granite from this quarry will be used as building stone.

8. OTHERS:

a) Site services:

Since Chitradurga is at a distance of 3.20 kms, most of the repairs of equipment will

be undertaken there and hence, no workshop will be maintained at mine head.

Office, stores, first-aid station, rest shelter, latrines and urinals will be constructed

and maintained outside the license area.

Potable Drinking water will be supplied to the persons working in the quarry by

disinfected and cleaned water tank/cans. No colony is maintained within the quarry

as the workers come from the adjoining villages.

b) Employment Potential

In all, there will be about 10 face workers for the Building Stone production of

26,136 tonnes/Annum (saleable production of 25,000 tonnes) @ 10 tonnes face OMS,

each worker contribute 300 man shifts per annum, it requires 26,136 /300/10 = 9+1

(15%leave/absent) workers. All others required are shown in manpower chart.

10. ENVIRONMENTAL MANAGEMENT PLAN :

i) Base line information:

a) Existing Land use pattern :

The extent of the License block to be granted is 2-00 Acres.

About 1-06 Acres land will be used for quarrying in the plan period. The present

land use pattern is given bellow. Statutory buildings will be away from the License

area.

Particulars Existing land

(acres)

Total land use during

plan period (Acres)

Area for Mining -- 1-06

Roads 0-02 0-02

Overburden dump -- 0-02

Infrastructure -- 0-02

Mineral Storage --

Topsoil Yard --

Safety Zone -- 0-28

Vacant Land 1-38 -

Total 2-00 2-00

The surrounding area is dry land, where some seasonal crops like Jowar, Paddy,

Wheat and pulses are grown.

ii) Water Regime:

There are no natural springs in the area.

The water table is about 90 m generally below the ground level. The drainage

pattern is dendritic to sub-dendritic in nature.

iii) Flora and Fauna:

The area is completely barren and devoid of any vegetation. Only few thorny bushes

are seen. As there is no forest cover, no wild life is seen in the area.

Building Stone Quarry

Page 20

iv) Quality of air, ambient noise level and water:

So far, the study on quality of air, ambient noise level and water is not carried out in

the specific area. However, the area around the applied area is devoid of any

industry.

a) Air Quality:

In general the SPM, SO2 and NOx concentration in the region may be within the

permissible limits, as it is a small scale quarrying.

b) Ambient noise level:

The noise levels are very low in this vicinity.

c) Water quality:

The quality of ground water is fairly good. There is no liquid waste discharge from

mining activity, which is likely to pollute water.

v) Climatic Conditions:

The normal annual rainfall in the district based on 30years is 574mm. However, in

the last decade (1996-2005) the district received an average annual rainfall of

631.7mm. Further analysis of rainfall data indicate that the there was deficient rainfall

in the years 2003, whereas the year 2005 received excess rainfall. The taluks of

Chellakere & Chitradurga faced deficit rainfall in the years of 2002 & 2004 as well,

most of the other taluks had deficit rainfall during two successive years 2002 and

2003. Post-monsoon rainfall had failed in the district during 2001 and 2004. During

the year 2003 the pre- and post-monsoon season, rainfall had failed. Rainfall is lowest

in Challakere taluk and highest in Hosadurga taluk.

vi) Human Settlement:

There is no habitation in the area. No villages are situated within the area. Workmen

and staff come from the nearby villages. So, there is no displacement involved. The

Building Stone Quarry

Page 21

villages falling within the buffer zone of 5 Kms from the License boundary are given

in key plan (Plate No. 1)

vii) Public buildings, places and monuments:

No public buildings, places, monument etc., exist within the applied area or in the

vicinity.

viii) Whether the area falls under notified area under water Act. 1974: Entire Karnataka falls under the notified area of the above act. Suitable action and remedial steps will be taken in case any obligation arises from the above said Act by the applicant.

b) Environment Impact assessment statement:

1) Landscape:

The area forms a hilly terrain.

2) Soil and Land use pattern:

There is about 1.0 m of soil in the applied area. Soil will be utilized for plantation

purposes.

About 1-06 acres land will be used for quarrying Building Stone in the License

period. Statutory buildings will be away from the license area.

3) Agriculture:

Due to quarrying agriculture will not be affected around the License area. Only

seasonal rain fed crops are grown such as jawar, sunflower, cotton, etc.

4) Forest:

As there is no forest area in the vicinity, and hence, there can be no effect on the

forest area

5) Vegetation:

The area is barren and devoid of any vegetation.

Building Stone Quarry

Page 22

ii) Air quality:

Only pollution in the air is due to dust which gets airborne due to the vehicular

movement and while loading granite, etc. Therefore, the SPM count in the air will

increase to a very small extent.

Nox, SO2 and CO values are expected to be within the permissible limits due to

proposed quarrying. Effect of quarrying is minimal. There is not much fuel burn

during mining except during transportation of granite and waste of vehicles plying

and compressor used for drilling the JH-holes.

iii) Water Quality:

Since it is rocky terrain, no ground water is found. However rain water is the source

for surface water. There is no toxic or poisonous discharge in to the drains from

mining operations. So, quality of water shall not be affected. But, in the surface

water some suspended silt particles may find their way during rainy season

iv) Noise Levels

Since it is a small scale quarrying, drilling and blasting are proposed, the back

ground noise levels will be slightly high at the site while drilling and blasting. The

area is away from roads where frequent traffic is encountered. General noise levels

are expected to be less than 80 dBa in working of the mine.

v) Vibration levels (due to blasting)

Only 8,193 jack hammer holes/annum of 1.5 mts depth will be drilled and blasted.

As, only few holes will be blasted at one time, not more than 10 holes / round, no

significant air blast or vibrations will take place. The blasting will be done during the

lunch interval of the workers, or before or after the working hours.

Building Stone Quarry

Page 23

vi) Water Regime:

1) Surface Water:

Here, surface water is the rain water. The chemical analysis of the Granite does not

show any hazardous parameters. Therefore, the rain water passing from the mine

working does not affect water quality.

2) Ground Water:

The ground water will not be affected as the mining operations will be conducted at

much higher levels than the ground water level. The ground water table is about 90

mts below the general ground level.

vii) Socio/ Economic:

1) Socio and demographic profile:

There are 9 villages including hamlets within the buffer zone (5km) and they all

depend on agriculture and related activities. Since the quarrying is on small scale, no

health problems are anticipated as well as safety due to quarrying operations.

2) Occupational health and safety:

Some quantity of dust will be generated during drilling operations and the

movement of trucks etc. As the quarrying is on a small scale, no appreciable impact

due to generation of small quantity of dust will be there. Regarding safety all the

precautions such as proper benches, use of safety belts, etc., will be maintained. All

the eligible workers will be provided with safety shoes and helmets.

viii) Public buildings, places and monuments:

The impact of the proposed quarrying is nil as there are no public buildings, places

and monuments in the vicinity.

Building Stone Quarry

Page 24

c) Environmental Management plan:

i) Storage and preservation of the top soil:

Soil of 3 m will be generated which will be used for plantation purposes.

ii) Proposals for reclamation of land affected by abandoned quarries and other mining activities during first five years.

There is no vegetation in the area. Therefore, it is not likely that there will be a loss of

vegetation in the area due to quarrying operation.

It will not be possible to go for reclamation concurrent to quarrying operations,

however, the pit can be used as irrigation pond.

iii) Programme of year-wise afforestation for the initial five years:

Afforestation will be made in the license area along the buffer zone. Plantation along approach road and village roads will be taken. About 100 saplings will be planted every year.

iv) Stabilisation and vegetation of dumps along with waste dump management year-wise for the first five years:

No dumps will be formed as all waste will be used for approach roads.

v) Measures to control erosion/ sedimentation of water course:

Since, it is a slightly undulated land with no water courses there can be no erosion /

sedimentation.

vi) Treatment and disposal of water from mine:

No mineral beneficiation will be conducted using water and hence, the question of

treating water does not arise.

ii) Measures for minimizing adverse effects on water regime:

As such, water regime is not affected. Hence, measures for minimizing adverse

effects on water regime do not arise.

viii) Protective measures for ground vibrations/ air blast caused by blasting.

As quarry is operated with controlled blasting with only 10 holes will be blasted at a

time, the Vibration due to blasting will not be much.

Building Stone Quarry

Page 25

ix) Measures for protecting historical monuments and for rehabilitation of human settlement, likely to be disturbed due to quarrying activity:

There is no historical monuments within or in the vicinity of the license area. There is

no habitation in the area. No villages are situated within the area. Work-men and

staff come from the nearby villages. So, there is no displacement of men involved.

x) Socio-Economic benefits arising out of mining:

People residing in the near-by villages are benefited by the direct and indirect

employment opportunity created by the quarrying activity, vocational training etc.

Monitoring schedules for different environmental components after the commencement of mining and other related activities:

No applicable as the quarry comes under ‘B’ category

Page 30

4. Closure Plan:

4.1 Mined-Out land:

Describe the proposals to be implemented for reclamation and rehabilitation of mined-out land including the manner in which the actual site of the pit will be restored for future use. The Proposals should be supported with relevant plans and sections depicting the method of land restoration/reclamation/ rehabilitation: At the end of the life of the Quarry, depth of Quarry will be more. So back filling is neither warranted nor feasible. Since one side of the Quarry area is surrounded by the agricultural lands, this pit may be utilized as Irrigation pond by providing proper outlet for excess rain water. Proper bunding will be made around the License area. Barbed wire fencing around mined out area (at the end of License period) will be made as safety & security measures to prevent access.

4.2 Water Quality Management:

Describe in detail the existing surface and ground water bodies available in the License areas and the measures to be taken for protection of the same including control of erosion, sedimentation, siltation, water treatment, diversion of water courses, if any, measures for protection of contamination of ground water from leaching etc. Quantity and quality of surface water bodies should also be indicated and corrective measures proposed described. Report of hydrological study carried out in the area many also be submitted. The water balance chart should be given. If there is potential of Acid Mine Drainage the treatment method should be given:

No surface & ground water bodies are available in the License area. Hence, no protection or control of erosion, siltation, water treatment, diversion of water courses is required.

4.3 Air Quality Management:

Describe the existing air Quality status. The corrective measures to be taken for prevention of pollution of air should be described: Only pollution in the air due to dust which gets airborne due to the vehicular movement, drilling etc. therefore, the SPM count in the air will increase to a very small extent. NOx, SO2 and CO values are expected to be within the permissible limits due to proposed small scale Quarrying. Effect of the small scale Quarrying is minimal. There is not much fuel burn during mining except during transportation of Building Stone and waste by vehicles plying and compressor used for drilling the JH-holes. However, corrective measures will be taken.

4.8 Disposal of Mining Machinery:

The decommissioning of mining machineries and their possible post mining utilization, if any, to be described:

Hired machineries will be removed by contractor as and when not required and

applicant’s own machineries will be shifted to other projects.

4.9 Safety &Security:

Explain the safety measures Implemented to prevent access to surface openings, excavation etc and arrangements proposed during the mine abandonment plan and up to the site being opened for general public should be described:

Proper bund will be made around the License area. Barbed wire fencing around

mined out area (at the end of License period) will be made as safety & security

measures to prevent access.

4.10 Disaster Management and Risk Assessment:

This should deal with action plan for high risk accidents like landslides, subsidence flood, and inundation in underground mines, fire, seismic activities, tailing dam failure etc. and emergency plan proposed for quick evacuation, ameliorative measures to the taken etc. The capability of lessee to meet such eventualities and the assistance to be required from the local authority should also be described:

Since it is hard rock Quarrying, high risk accidents are very rare in these type of

Quarrying, as the area is free from earthquake zone and also major water body. Even

if there is any such event, the lessee is quite capable to meet such high risk accidents.

4.11 Care and maintenance during temporary discontinuance:

For every five yearly review (as given is the mining Scheme), an emergency plan for the

situation of temporary discontinuance or incomplete programme due to court order or due to

statutory requirements or any other unforeseen circumstances, should include a plan

indicating measures of care, maintenance and monitoring of status of unplanned discontinued

mining operations expected to re-open in near future. They should detail item wise status

monitoring and maintenance with periodicity and objective:

During temporary discontinuance proper bund will be made not to allow any rain

water to fill the pit. Also proper fencing will be erected around the pit as a safety

measure to enable the pit to re-open immediately in shortest possible time.

5. Economic repercussions of closure of mine and manpower retrenchments:

Manpower retrenchment, compensation to be given, socio-economic repercussions and remedial measures consequent to the closure of mines should be described, specifically stating the following:

There will be limited socio-economic repercussions due to closure of the Quarry

activities as it is a small quarry. Since, the labours are from surrounding areas who

are basically agricultural labours, in case of closure, they will go back to their family

occupation. They will get compensation as per the Govt. rules.

5.1 Number of local residents employed in the mine, status of the continuation family occupation and scope of joining the occupation back:

Around 16 local persons will be used as labours. Most of the labours will be from the

surrounding areas who are basically Agricultural. Labours In case of closure, they

will go back to their family occupation.

5.2 Compensation given or to be given to the employees connecting with sustenance of himself and their family members:

As they are daily wages employees, they will get compensation as per the

government rules.

5.3 Satellite occupations connected to the Quarrying industry number of persons engaged therein continuance of such business after mine closes:

There can be no satellite occupation connected to the Quarrying industry. Not

applicable.

5.4 Continued engagement of employees in the rehabilitated status of mining License area and any other remnant activities:

Not Applicable

5.5 Envisaged repercussions on the expectation of the society around due to closure of Quarry:
