2.0 INTRODUCTION OF THE PROJECT/BACKGROUND INFORMATION

2.1 Identification of Project and Project Proponent

Nangal (M.L. No. 89/02) Masonary Stone Mine is situated at Village -

Nangal, Tehsil- Pahari, District- Bharatpur, and State- Rajasthan over an

area of 1 ha. The lease was granted in the name of Smt. Seema Meena

vide order no. 1467 dated 30-09-10 for the term of 20 years, later on the

lease was transferred Sh. Akshay Chaudhary S/o Sh. Arun Chaudhary,

R/o 3/30 jawahar nagar, Jaipur raj. vide order no. 2426 on 14-8-18 for

20 yrs.

2.2 Brief description of nature of Project

The project has been proposed for mining of Mineral Masonary Stone by

adopting opencast mechanized mining method.

2.3 Need for the Project and Its Importance to the Country or Region

Masonary stone is most commonly used as building material. Masonry

Stone finds extensive use in the construction and infrastructural works.

The basic objective of the project is the effective utilization of Material in

the country or region. Masonry Stone is the world's most commonly used

material in construction of road, railway track construction etc. Masonry

Stone will help in the economic growth of the country or region.

2.4 Demands-Supply Gap

The demand for Masonary Stone is ever growing with the growth of the

infrastructure sector in our country. The mineral is used in the

construction activities like buildings, road construction etc. The

requirement for the mineral is always high in the nearby cities and

towns. Therefore there is always a good demand of the mineral in the

domestic market.

2.5 Imports vs. Indigenous Production

Development needs will be met only through indigenously produced

Masonary stone against the high cost of imported material.

2.6 Export Possibility

There is no proposal to export the mineral. However, Masonary stone

produced from the mine will fulfill the needs of the region and surplus if



any, will be considered for export.

2.7 Domestic/ Export Markets

Domestic Market

Being a building stone, the principal use of this Masonary stone is in

construction of buildings and roads.

Export Market

The proposed mining activity is for indigenous consumption only for real

state, decorative accessories etc.

2.8 Employment Generation (Direct and Indirect)

The proposed mining activity for the excavation of masonary stone will

provide both direct and indirect employment in form of labors for mining

process and through transport etc respectively.

The proposed lease area is easily approachable through SH 22. The

nearest Railway station is Govindgarh Railway Station which is 35 km

away from the site. Nearest Airport is 80 km in New Delhi.

4.2 Landform, Land use and Land ownership

4.2.1Landform

The applied lease area is a part of a hillock which is a Govt. Land.

4.2.2 Land use

The applied lease area is a Govt. land. The lease area comprises of

undulated terrains. There is no village or human settlement in the lease

area. Permanent vegetation in the area is very less prominent.

4.2.3 Land Ownership

The proposed lease area is Govt. land.

4.3Topography

The lease area comprises of undulated terrains. The highest contour is of

4.6 Soil Classification

The soils of the Bharatpur district are greyish brown and yellowish

brown with wide variation in texture from sandy loam to clayey loam.

The soils at some places are affected by salinity/ alkalinity. The soils of

Bharatpur, Bayana and Deep sub divisions are fertile. In northeastern



part of the district, the soils are compact and have low permeability,

which causes water to stagnate on the surface during rainy season.

summer and extremely cold during winter. The cold season is from

December to February and is followed by summer from March to June.

Period from mid of September to end of November constitute post

monsoon season. Average annual rainfall (1971-2011) of the district is

605.3 mm. The rainfall has decreased over the years. The average annual

rainfall during the period 2001 – 2011 varied from 401 mm at Sikari to

741 mm at Sewar Bundh. The district experiences either mild or normal

drought once in two years. Severe type of drought was recorded in 1979.

Most severe type of drought had occurred 3 only in Nadbai subdivision in

1979 and Deeg subdivision in 1986. Moderate drought has also occurred

in the district during 1987, 1989 and 1991.

Viability of the

Project

Estimated project cost is Rs. 40 Lakh. The lessee has all the mining

equipments used for the scientific mining. The mine is Eco-Friendly.

Economically the ore is mineable as compared to overburden thickness.

The entire mineable reserve as estimated is categorized as 121.

Environmental Management Plan

The environmental management plan consists of the set of mitigation,

management, monitoring and institutional measures to be taken during

the implementation and operation of the project, to eliminate adverse

environmental impacts or reduce them to acceptable levels. The present

environmental management plan addresses the components of

environment, which are likely to be affected by the different operations

in the mine area.
