1.0 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Mining lease was granted to M/s Burn Standard Company Ltd. (BSCL, A Govt. of India Undertaking) Salem-636005, Tamil Nadu for a period of 20 years w.e.f. 01.09.1961 to 31.08.1981 which was renewed for next 20 years from 1981 to 2001 vide G.O. No. 51 dated 02.02.1987 (Copy enclosed as Annexure-I), over an extent of 101.35 Ha (Suppl. lease deed enclosed as Annexure-II). The application for renewal of mining lease was made by M/s Burn Standard Company Ltd. as per norms on 17.8.2000, i.e. one year before the expiry of mining lease (Copy enclosed as Annexure-III). Supplementary lease deed was also executed on 17.8.2000 to 19.8.2019 for exploitation of Dunite in addition to Magnesite. M/s Burn Standard Company Ltd. was in possession of the entire lease and was performing the mining operation from the subject mines.
As per the office memorandum dt 17th November 2011, of Ministry of Heavy Industries & Public Enterprises, Department of Heavy Industries, Government of India, the Refractory unit of M/s Burn Standard Company Ltd. at Salem with all assets, and liabilities was transferred to M/s Steel Authority of the India Limited (SAIL) (Copy enclosed as Annexure IV). Accordingly M/s Steel Authority of the India Limited (SAIL) has owned the entire Magnesite Mines and Refractory Plant and named the unit as SAIL Refractory Company Limited (SRCL) w.e.f. 16.12.2011, since then the mining operation was continued by M/s SRCL.
As per the latest amendments of MMDR, 2015, being a captive mine the lease is deemed extended up to 31.03.2030, and is approved by Indian Bureau of Mines, Chennai vide letter No: TN/SLM/MG/ROMP-1402.MDS dated: 06.03.2017.
Review of Mining Plan is prepared for this Lease covering an extent of 101.35 Ha for the plan period of 2016-2021, and is submitted to Indian Bureau of Mines, Chennai for approval.
Since the mine was allotted and was under execution by M/s Burn Standard Company Ltd. much before the applicability of Environment clearance, the environment clearance for the subject mine was not taken. After M/s BSCL, mine was executed by M/s SRCL since 2011 to 2016 as per the provisions of MMDR, 1957. The production capacity by M/s SRCL was never raised more than the capacity of production done by M/s BSCL. Now M/s SRCL is applying for the Environment Clearance as per requirement under EIA Notification, 2006.
This is a violation case due to mining has been operating since grant of mining lease without Environmental Clearance. Ministry has issued S.O. 804 (E) dated 14.03.2017 under the EIA notification 2006. The detailed of past production, certified by Dept. of Geology and Mining, Salem, Tamil Nadu is attached as Annexure-VI and certificate Dept. of Geology and Mining, Salem, Tamil Nadu regarding mining activity has been stopped is attached as Annexure-VII.

The South Indian shield is composed of Archaean and Proterozoic rocks of Tamil Nadu. It is a classical region for the study of different satges of crustal evolution and is also one of the extensively studied Pre-cambian terrains in the world. The South Indian shield is flanked by Mesozole, Tertiary and Quaternary sediments to the east and West. It is truncated by the Godavari garden towards North and partially masked by the late proterozoic basin (Cuddapah, Kaladgi, Badami and bhima) towards North-east and cretaceous to Tertiary flood basalts (Deccan Traps) towards North-west. The ultramafic rocks generally show evidenced of greater weathering in caomparison to the adjacent gneissic country rocks. The depth of weathering in dunite extents up to 40 m, while in the gneissic country rocks, its ranges 5 to 15 m. The degree of weathering in these rocks is controlled by irregular fracture patterns. The regional ground water table is confirmed to the sum of weathering. The weathered soils of ultramafic rocks like dunite and peridolite show yellowish red color. Potessium rich rocks show mostly spheroidal weathering. Many well sections show spheroidal boulders of shonkinite.
