27
2.3 Need for the Project and Its Importance to the Country or Region
Socially and economically the area is backward. At present the major occupation
of the villagers are farming and cattle rearing. The proposed mining will provide
regular employment to the villagers of the area.
2.4 Demands-Supply Gap
The demand for Marble Quarry is ever growing with the development in the
infrastructure sector of our country. This Marble Quarry from India are generally
used as in flooring, and to pave the floors of large commercial complexes,
hospitals, airports, shopping malls, railway stations, parks etc. Therefore there is
always been a good demand of the mineral in the domestic market.
2.5 Imports vs. Indigenous Production
As the mineral is sufficiently found indigenously so the import of the same is not
required.
2.6 Export Possibility
There is no proposal to export the marble. However, marble quarry produced
from the mine will fulfill the needs of the region and if surplus, it will be
considered for export also.
2.7 Domestic/ Export Markets
Domestic Market
It is an important stone for construction and architecture. These marble quarry
are generally used in flooring, and to pave the floors of large commercial
complexes, hospitals, airports, shopping malls, railway stations, parks etc.
Export Market
Since the produced mineral is being sufficiently absorbed in the local market and
to sustain its self-sufficiency, the requirement for mineral export has been
discouraged.
2.8 Employment Generation
As per proposed mining total 10 unskilled workers, 3 skilled operated are to be
proposed to be employed in mining. The labor will be employed from nearby
village. Some local habitants of the area will get indirect employment from the
mining activities and by transportation.

Regional Geology
Geologically, Nagaur district is occupied by the Delhi Supergroup rocks, Erinpura
rocks, Erinpura Granite, Malani Igneous suite, Marwar Supergroup rocks and
Jogira Fullers earth/Kuchera Khajwana series focks. Delhi Supergroup comprises
the Raialo, Alwar and Ajabgarh groups. Raialo group is mainly represented by
conglomerate quartzite, dolomitic and calcitic marbles and garnetiferous schist.
These are mainly exposed near Ras and Makarana.
Local Geology:
The marble deposit extends over a strike length of about 12Kms having a width
of 1.6 km, located in the west of Makarana town. In this belt there are six parallel
to sub parallel bands of marble having 2 to 12 mts width, occurring between
Borawad and Makarana. On the basis of physical characters like colour, pattern,
grain size etc Makarana marble belt has been divided into 14 blocks. Blocks wise
description is as follows:

Geomorphologically, the area is represented by strike ridges, sand sheets,
anthropogenic overburden mounds, slurry dumps and deep pits. Drainage in the
mining area is mostly internal. Major part of the area is covered by mobile to semi
stable, NNW-SSE to NE-SW trending sand dunes which overlie calcareous sand
pseudo-conglomerate, kankar or gypsite bed of Quaternary period. Marble is
exposed on surface in the central part, whereas overburden varies upto 15 m in
the northern and the southern part of the area.
Makrana marble deposits belong to Ajmer Formation of Kumbhalgarh Group of
the Delhi Supergroup (Pareek, 1984; G.S.I. 1997). Five prominent marble bands
occur in the area west of Makrana. From east to west these are known as (1)
Devi-Gunawati range (2) Dungri range (3) Pink range, (4) Makrana Kumhari
range, and (5) Borawar Kumhari range with band I and II (Natani, 2001). The
different marble bands have formed due to tight isoclinal folding. The mining
ranges are known by different names in different blocks (Fig. 1). At present
mines extend from Matabhar in the north to Bilu-Mored in the south
(approximately 13 km) along the strike and from Gunawati in the east to Borawar
in the west (about 1.6 km) across the strike. Matabhar, Kalanada, Kolhadungri
and Bilu-Mored are new mining areas.

The detailed study of the area was done to assess the marble quantum in the
area. These studies included Geological Mapping, Topographical survey and
Geological Traversing.
Detailed geological mapping of the QL area of 250’x200’ was carried out on a
scale of 1:500. Topographical survey of the marble area was simultaneously
done. Different lithounits along with their dimensions were marked on map.
Marble rock is precisely marked. The Geological Plan is enclosed as plate No. 4
along with this report. Given below is the generalized litho – units (geological
horizon) exposed on the surface of the near QL area: -
(i). Sandy alluvium and Grid & kankar (The average thickness of this unit is
7.0mts.)
(iii). Associates rock of marble as waste : (The average thickness of this unit is
13.0mts as O.B. and side of the deposit marble up to bottom.)
(iv) Marble. (Marble is about 19.0mts and bottom of marble bed is not proved.)
Marble in the area trending NNW-SSW with steep dips is 70° to 72° towards
ESE.
In the quarry area marble is coarse grained and colour of the area is white. The
entire rock mass is jointed. There are two different sets of joints running
perpendicular to each other dividing the massive rock mass into blocky
formation. Hanging wall is also present in working pit in SE direction & foot wall is
present in NW direction.
Use of Marble:-Nagaur district is well known in the world over owing to the presence of
Makrana marble. Marble occurring in the vicinity of Makrana town is so famous that
'Makrana' has become the synonymous of marble. It has been worked intensively from
time immemorial. Word famous Taj Mahal of Agra: Victoria Memorial, Kolkata:
Delwara Jain Temple at Mount Abu and Ranakpur Temple in Pali & other famous
monuments of excellent architectural art and beauty are constructed of Makrana
marble.

3.5 Project description with process details
3.5.1 Method of Mining
The mining will be semi mechanized with wet drilling of the holes through
compressed air operated jack hammers and cutting of rock will be done by
splitting and lifting of blocks is done by jib cranes. It is proposed to carry out the
work of excavation without blasting. The mining will be done with help of wet drill
m/c, and Diamond wire saw cutting machine etc. The mining shall be started
from the existing pit. The working will be done by forming benches of 5m height
as per requirement. Occasionally the overburden will be removed with help of
JCB on hire basis and loaded in trucks and transported to dump yard. As the
marble, is to be mined are exposed on benches. The marble is a building
material. The cost of the marble is directly dependent on the size of the block
mined. Therefore, it is desired to get the maximum size of the boulders from the
rocks. For this special techniques in wet drilling, i.e. by locating the direction and
spacing of the joints, is done and the suitable free face is provided. At a time
single bench is worked from the safety point. After that the block is lifted from the
area with the help of jib crane. The proposed mining method will include the
following steps:-
i) Overburden Removal
ii) Marble Excavation
iii) Making of Block
i) Overburden Removal
The overburden in the area is mostly soil, grid & kankar. This overburden will be
removed by JCB and separately stacked in the area. The height of bench 5 m
maximum and width will be not less than height.
ii) Marble Excavation
Making Gully and Toda: - Overburden will be removed, now the weathered
marble & marketable marble is to be mined out. For this purpose special benches
in the area are prepared in the shape of English letter ‘T’. These are known as
Gully and Toda. For this, a cut by wire saw is made as the outline of these, or
weak zone is developed along the outline with the help of a jackhammer.
34
Block Mining :- After this job is done, the visible blockable area, known as Thadi,
many huge chunk of marble, known as Phada of full depth will be mined out. This
Phada is detached from the mine by the wedge technique.
iii) Making of Block :- Once the stoner has been freed from all six sides, it is
topped down for making smaller pieces with the help of jacks and then marked
for the required sizing. Then these blocks are made with the help of jackhammer
and wedge technique.
After this, the blocks are lifted with the help of a 30 tonnes jib crane and are
loaded into the trucks for transportation.
Blasting: The overburden is unconsolidated, friable soil and Grit & Kankar. From
the experience of existing quarry it is anticipated that grit and kanker can be dug
and loaded by J.C.B. No blasting is required. The mineralized marble cutting
blocks with wire saw. In this view of the above. It is proposed to carry out the
work of excavation without blasting.

4.5 Soil Classification
Four types of soil have been reported in the district viz, clay, clay loam, sandy
loam and sandy soil. The general texture of the soil in the area is sandy loam to
clayey loam which is further classified into “Barani” or unirrigated and “Chahi” or
irrigated soil. A part of Nagaur tehsil and south-eastern part of Merta tehsil has
deep sandy loam, where red loamy soil exists elsewhere in the Merta tehsil
except on the banks of river Luni, light loamy soil occurs in Parbatsar tehsils
away from hill ranges. A longitudinal belt from Didwana to Nawa extending up to
Sambhar Lake has the characteristics of alkaline soil. (Source: - District
Groundwater Brochure, 2009, Central Ground Water Board, Nagaur,
Rajasthan).
4.7 Climate Data from Secondary Sources
The district experiences arid to semi-arid type of climate. Mean annual rainfall
(1971-2005) of the district is 410mm, whereas normal rainfall (1901-1970) is
lower than average rainfall and placed at 363.1 mm. It is obvious that there is
significant increase in rainfall during the last 30 years. The rainy days are limited
to maximum of 15 days in a year. Almost 80% of the total annual rainfall is
received during the southwest monsoon. The probability of occurrence of mean
annual rainfall is 38%. Based on agricultural criteria which indicate the district is
prone to mild and normal type of drought. Occurrence of severe and very severe
type of drought is very rare. There is not much variation in distribution of rainfall.
However, the southern part of the district gets slightly more rainfall than northern
part. The mean annual rainfall is lowest at Didwana (347.8mm), which lies in
northern part of the district, whereas the mean annual rainfall is highest at
Degana (471.9mm) which lies in southern part of the district.
Seasonal Distribution: The rainfall in the district is highly seasonal. More than
90% of the total annual rainfall is received during the south – west monsoon
season. The monsoon enters the district in the first week of July and withdraws
by the middle of September. July is followed by August with monthly normal
rainfall of 120.8mm. As the district lies in the desert area, extreme heat in
summer and cold in winter is the characteristic of the desert. Both day and night
39
temperature increases gradually and reaches at their maximum in May and June
respectively. The temperature varies from 46 degree in summer to 7 degree in
winter. The winter starts by middle of November and lasts till February.
Atmosphere is generally dry except during the monsoon period. The humidity is
highest in August with mean daily relative humidity of 80%. The annual maximum
potential evapo transpiration in the district is quite high and it is highest (255.1
mm) in the month of May and lowest (76.5 mm) in the month of December.

41
5.2 Land use Planning
The detailed land use of the area at the end of the five year is given below:
At end of the life of mine out of a total of about 0.30hectares excavated
area, this whole worked out (excavated) area will be used as rain water
accumulation. Ultimate pit slope of 45° will be maintained. This slope of 45° is
suggested as the marble and O.B. formation is hard.
5.3 Assessment of Infrastructure demand (Physical & Social)
On the basis of the preliminary site visit, the infrastructure demand in the village
was assessed on the basis of need and priority. The road facility is already
available which shall be used and properly maintained. Preference will be given
to local labour from nearby villages. The health infrastructure of the study area
requires improvement. The lack of medical facilities needs improvement. Medical
facilities will be provided by mine owner during mining.
Physical Infrastructure
The road facility is already available which shall be used and maintained.
The labor requirement is drawn from the nearest villages, which shall also
be trained for the requirement in mines. Other infrastructure facilities

6.3 Green Belt
There is no forest in the area therefore there is no question of felling of trees due
to mining and afforestation on compensatory grounds. To improve the
environment of the area it is proposed to plant 40tree per year inside the area
covering an area of 0.015hect in each year of working near boundary line. During
the next five years saplings of local species like Babool, Neem etc will be planted
over an area of 0.075hects shown in working plan, plate no. 5 & Environment
plan plate no.6. The number of sapling proposed to be planted during next five
years period is furnished below: -
The rate of survival will be nearly 70% the dead plants will be replace in every rainy season.

+ 0.9(Plantation) KLD +0.6 KLD (Dust Suppression) 0.5* (wire saw cutting and
wet drilling) KLD. *Recirculation of water for use wire saw and wet drilling in
marble will be practiced.
6.7 Sewerage System
Domestic waste water will be treated into septic tank followed by soak pit
6.8 Industrial Waste Management: Not applicable
6.9 Solid Waste management
Total waste generated during the next five years shall be 29105 cum. The waste
generated will be stacked at the earmarked place in the selected non mineralized
site area khasra no 9/1,9/2 and 9/3 and ultimately will be used by the local
villagers for preparation of parapet wall, wall fencing, boundary wall etc. at no
cost.
6.10 Power Requirement & Supply/Source

7. REHABILITATION AND RESETTLEMENT (R&R) PLAN
As no personnel are expected to be migrated due to mining in the Q.L. area and
the adjoining region is also having good mineral potential, the rehabilitation of the
employees is not going to be a problem. The workers and other staff can easily
get job in the neighboring areas after the end of life of mine.
8 PROJECT SCHEDULE & COST ESTIMATES
8.1 Likely Date of Start of Construction and Likely Date of Completion
No construction activities are proposed. The mining activity will commence only
after receiving the environmental clearance and other statutory clearance.
8.2 Estimated Project Cost Along With Analysis In Terms of Economic
Viability of the Project
Estimated project cost is Rs. 50 Lakhs. The machineries will be hired. Some
machinery will be deployed by Licensee. Some Machinery will be kept for future
use also. The mine will be Eco-Friendly in nature. Economically the ore is
mineable as compared to overburden thickness.

9.0 ANALYSIS OF PROPOSAL (FINAL RECOMMENDATIONS)
The proposed mine will bring about economic benefits to the state in the form of
Royalty of mineral and to the local people by getting direct and secondary
employment opportunities. The material is in high demand at the local market as
it can be used in various industries in different ways. From the times immemorial
Marble Quarry has been used by the individual for construction and other
industries.
This project operation will provide livelihood to the poorest section of the society/
economically backward population and tribal in the area. It provides employment
to the people residing in vicinity directly or indirectly. The mine management will
also help nearby villages by providing aid to school, conducting medical and
social awareness camps, helping in formation of self-help groups, etc. Thus the
project will bring about socio-economic improvement of the area and will prove
beneficial to the area.
