2.2 BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE NATURE OF PROJECT

As per EIA Notification dated 14th Sep, 2006 and as amended till date, the project

falls under, Category “A”. It has been proposed to excavate approximately 26460TPA

of Manganese Ore from forest Compartment No. 551 A& B by fully mechanized

method. The lease area is 130.00 ha. Total mineable reserve available is 1, 18,857 MT

of Manganese Ore Mineral. The expected life of mine is 11 years. O.B. and waste/

sub-grade generated during the five year plan period will be 7515 m3&4536

m3respectively. The Manganese ore will be transported through trucks/dumper.

At the end of lease period (130.00 ha), the total excavated area will be 5.5878 ha out

of which 3.9778 hect area will be converted into water reservoir & 1.6100 hect will be

backfilled & covered by plantation. Water reservoir will ultimately help in recharging

the ground water table and also used for irrigation purpose. The depth of water table is

30m (Pre-Monsoon) to 25 m (Post-Monsoon) below the general ground level. The

depth of water table is 18 m BGL. Thus ground water table will not be encountered

during working in the mine.

2.2 NEED FOR THE PROJECT & ITS IMPORTANCE TO THE COUNTRY/

REGION

Mining of manganese ore has been practiced since ancient times in central India, as

high grade manganese occurs in this region. Manganese mines of Madhya Pradesh

and Maharashtra have good quality high grade manganese which is used in

metallurgical industry as ferro-alloys and manganese metals. Manganese ore is used

in the manufacture of porcelain, enamel, dry battery, building bricks, glazed pottery,

floor tile, plastics, welding rods, chemicals, varnish and electric bulbs etc. Manganese

sulphate is used in fertilizer industry. Large proportion of manganese is required in

the metallurgy of iron and steel. The ore grade of the mine is most suitable for Ferro-

Silico-Manganese manufacturing. Most of the ore is sold to Ferro-Silico

Manufacturers.

Besides this, the project will prove beneficial in terms of socio-economic

development as it will provide employment to locals. Further, the average income

level, which is the indicator of socio – economic status of households is expected to

increase, which will ultimately result in better standard of living of the local people.




8

2.3 DEMAND – SUPPLY GAP

Manganese is one of the most widely used metals next to iron, Aluminium and

Copper. Majority of the industrial quality of Manganese in India was exported to

other countries of the world till late sixties. With gradual growth of indigenous

industry, the domestic consumption of Manganese ore has increased to almost total

consumption.

About 96% of manganese ore is used in the metallurgical industry as ferro-alloys and

manganese metals. Manganese ore is used in the manufacture of porcelain, enamel,

dry battery, building bricks, glazed pottery, floor tile, plastics, welding rods,

chemicals, varnish and electric bulbs etc. Manganese sulphate is used in fertilizer

industry. Large proportion of manganese is required in the metallurgy of iron and

steel. It acts as a deoxidizer in the manufacture of nickel and other non-ferrous metals.

It is also used in the manufacture of special electrodes. The use of electrolytic

manganese in metal industries can be justified only if its price difference over that of

other alloys is maintained. Approximately half of the electrolytic manganese is

utilized in the ferrous production and the other half in non-ferrous production such as

copper, nickel, aluminium and magnesium alloys.

2.4 IMPORTS VS. INDIGENOUS PRODUCTION

Manganese produced from the proposed Manganese ore mine will be used in

metallurgical industry such as ferro-alloys and manganese metals.

2.5 EXPORT POSSIBILITY

Not applicable as the manganese production from the mine will be for domestic use.

2.6 DOMESTIC/EXPORT MARKETS

Domestic demand is one of the chief reasons for the rapid growth of Manganese Ore

business in India. Thus, domestic market for Manganese Ore for metallurgical

industry is well established. Manganese ore is used in the manufacture of porcelain,

enamel, dry battery, building bricks, glazed pottery, floor tile, plastics, welding rods,

chemicals, varnish and electric bulbs etc. No export will be done.

3.3 DETAILS OF ALTERNATE SITES

Mining activity is site specific hence no alternative sites examined.

3.4 SIZE OR MAGNITUDE OF OPERATION

Mine area for the Manganese Ore Deposit mine is 130.00 ha and production

capacity is 26,460 TPA.

3.4.1 REGIONAL GEOLOGY

Regionally the area belongs to Mesoproterozoic age. In Nagpur District rock

formation ranges in age from Archaean to Recent. Tirodi Gneissic Complex of

Archaean to Palaeozoic age (2500-2200 my) comprising Migmatite, Orthogneiss and

Granulites occupies the eastern and northeastern part. Sakoli group of meso

Proterozoic age (2000 – 16000 my) occupies the southern part and comprises Mica

Schist, Phyllite and Carbonaceous PhylliteMetabasalt with associated tuff,

Metarhyolite and felsic volcanics with associated tuff. Sausar Group of Meso

Proterozoic age occupies the northern part and comprises Quartz Muscovite Schist,

Feldspar Muscovite Schist and Intercalated Quartzite (Sitasawangi Formation), Calc

Gneiss and ManganiferrousMarble with pockets of Manganese Ore (Lohangi

Formation) Muscovite Biotite Schist with Manganese Ore (Mansar Formation),

Quartzite and Quartz Muscovite Schist (chorbaoli Formation), Muscovite Biotite

Schist and Quartz Biotite Granite (Junewani Formation) and crystalline Limestone

and Dolomite (Bichua Formation) area is repeatedly tight folded. The Saunsar Group

is a store house of Manganese Ore Deposit. Talchir formation of Carboniferous to

Permian age (345 – 230 my) and Kamthi Formation of Permian to Triassic age (280 -

195 my) of Gondwana Super Group are exposed around Umrer, Savner and Kamthi.

Almost half of the district in its western and southern parts is occupied by the Deccan

Trap comprising 6 km thick pile of basaltic flows of Cretaceous to Palaeogene age

(60-62 my). At some places Intertrappeans (sedimentary) beds separate the individual

flows. Isolated laterite cappings are found around Kondhali. Alluvial deposits of

Pleistocene to Recent age are found along Kanhan, Jam Wine and Sur rivers.

The Precambrian manganiferrous ENE-WSW trending Sausar Group of rocks occur

in the northern parts of the Maharashtra and southern parts of the Madhya Pradesh.

SynsedimentarySrtatiform Manganese Ore Deposit of this area mainly associated with

the Psammo-pelitic Rocks of the Saunsar Group. The Saunsar Group comprises

mainly Quartz Mica Schist, Quartzite, Calc Granulite and Gneiss with Calcite and

Dolomite marble. The basement for this group of rock is Trirodi Gneiss.

The entire saunsar belt is intensively deformed and metamorphosed. The basement

gneiss has also participated in all the deformational episodes of Saunsar origin along

with the rock of Saunsar Group. Tectonic slices of narrow dismembered

manganiferrousSaunsar Rock are also seen within the Tirodi Gneiss indicating

thrusting of the overlying rock within the gneisses. The gneisses, Migmatite son and

post tectonic Granite Plutons, Vein Quartz also occur within sausar supra crustal rock.

The lower most rock is a lensoidal Calcareous Quartzite overlain by thick Dolomite

marble. It is overlain by Calc Silicate rock inner banded by Calcitic Marble, hosting

Gonditic Manganese Ore. Linear bands of Lohangi formation are observed within

Gneissic terrain between Torni, Bodalbhana and Bichhwa. Around Mogra and south

Bichhwa Gneissic rocks interleave the sediments.

3.5.5 DRILLING

The deposit is proposed to be mined by fully Opencast mining by adopting a system of small

hole/deep hole blasting and /or working with the help of machinery for digging, excavation

and removal of ore, overburden etc. Drilling of the blast holes is proposed to be done by

compressed air fed jack hammers and wagon drills. Height of the bench is proposed to be kept

at 4 m where drill will make 1.5 m deep bore hole. Wet drilling is to be done in hand holes as

well as jack hammer drilling/ wagon drill.

3.5.6 BLASTING

Blasting is required only for removing OB, waste rock and mineral. The controlled blasting

technique is to be adopted, so that is does not damage the Manganese Ore. The Manganese

Ore is capped by OB of siliceous nature and it is fine to medium grained and compact.

Heaving and breaking of the OB will be required that can be achieved by effective blasting

economically. About 80% of the siliceous OB and Manganese Ore will be required to be

blasted, while the rest will be generated by impact. Drilling of blast holes is proposed to be

done by compressed air fed wagon drills. Secondary Blasting will not be needed. Muffle

blasting will be done to prevent flying fragments, which may cause injury to local inhabitants

within danger zone. Muffle blasting will be carried out by keeping sand filled bags on wire

net placed on holes.

applicant will apply for explosive license.

MINERAL TRANSPORTATION

Loading of mineral will be done by excavator & dumper/trucks of 24 T will be used

for transportation of mineral &waste. The Manganese ore will be used for captive

plant for Ferro Mn.

3.6 RAW MATERIAL REQUIRMENT

No raw material will be required. The final product will be sent to consumer

industries based on their demand. The mode of transportation of raw material will be

road. Trucks/Dumpers will be used for transportation of Manganese Ore.

3.7 RESOURCES OPTIMIZATION/ RECYCLING AND REUSE ENVISAGED IN

5.3 LAND USE PLANNING

The sapling for plantation will be selected on less water according to climatic condition and

hence it is proposed to plant 8580 saplings per year. The plantation will be done at the lease

boundary.Year- wise programme of green belt development for five years, about saplings

42,900 will be planted in an area of 42.9 ha. Up to the conceptual phase 42,900 saplings will

be planted. By the green development it will improve the eco-systems and aesthetic beauty of

the area. Post plantation cares including provision for watering, soil mulching manure supply

to plants will be done. The list of the species to be planted in the green is provided below:-

5.4 ASSESSMENT OF INFRASTRUCTURE DEMAND

The mine area is easily accessible from the state highway by SH-54(0.18 km, East)

will be helpful to approach workers to the mine site as well as transportation of

mineral to the nearby areas and end user. KatangiRailway Stationis 14.90 Km far

towards NNE form the mine site. The infrastructure demand in the villages will be

evaluate on the basis of necessity and priority. Job opportunities are inadequate and

new possibility for income generation is required.

5.5 AMENITIES/FACILITIES

� Mine Office: It is proposed to have a temporary mine office with First Aid Facility.

� Rest Shelter: Temporary Rest Shelter will be made available.

� Drinking Water Facility: The drinking water will be made available from the

nearby pond &from Biloni Nalla and rain harvested water stored in tank after and during

monsoon. The quality of water is reportedly potable.

� Adequate lighting arrangements: Single shift working during day time is proposed,

10 ENVIRONMENT MANAGEMENT PLAN

PARTICULARS MANAGEMENT

Air Quality Excavation, Loading

and Transportation

� Dust generated due to excavation and

vehicular movements will be suppressed by

water spraying on haul road.

� To avoid the dust generation from the

drilling operations Wet drilling method

will be practiced.

� Drill machines will be fitted with dust

collectors.

� Use of appropriate explosives for blasting.

� Controlled blasting techniques will be

practiced.

� Dust mask will be provided to the workers.

� Proper maintenance of vehicles &

machineries will be done.

� Water sprinkling on the haul road and other

road at regular intervals will be done.

� Speed of the vehicles will be kept within

the prescribed limits.

� Trucks will not be over loaded.

Water Quality

� No waste water or any effluence as solid or

gas there will be generated from mining

operation

� Garland drains will be made around the

mining area to channelize surface run off

into natural drainage pit so that it can be

utilized for dust suppression.

� Mining operations will be at higher levels;

therefore there will be no effect on ground

water condition due to mining.

Noise Quality Drilling, Blasting, � Adequate silencers in all the diesel engines




23

Loading and

unloading of Mineral

and movement of

Trucks.

will be used.

� Personal protective equipment will be

provided to the workers.

� Proper maintenance of machines at regular

intervals will be done.

� Green belt development and plantation

Solid Waste

� There is no top soil available in the lease

area

� The generated OB/ interburden will be

dumped in the south of the lease area and

these dumps will be temporary.

Land Reclamation

The area has moderate rolling topography

which is covered with forest having the density

index less than 0.3. At the conceptual stage,

out of total mined out area (5.5878 ha) 3.9778

ha will be converted into water reservoir &

1.6100 ha will be backfilled & covered with

plantation.
