PART – A

2.1 GEOLOGY AND MINERAL RESERVES

3.1 Brief description of the

Topography and general Geology

of the area (with plans)

The area is almost plain terrain covered with

Gravel which does not sustain any type of

vegetation. The attitude of the area is 18m

(Maximum) from MSL, the slope of the area is

gentle towards North Western side. Please refer

the Topography, Geological plan and sections

(Plate No –II).

3.2 Details of exploration already

carried out if any

No exploration was carried out. The Gravel

formation is found right from the surface and

proposed to excavate upto a depth of 0.90m only.

3.3 Estimation of reserves The Geological plans demarcating the

commercially viable Gravel body have been

prepared in 1:1000 scales (Plate No.II).

Two sections have been drawn, one along

the Length wise as (X-Y) horizontally, and another

section along the width wise as (A-B) vertically, to

choose the maximum area cover under the lease

in the Horizontal 1:1000 and Vertical 1: 100

(please refer Plate No- II).


5

The cross sectional area for the proved

depth persistence of 0.90m has been worked out

for the section.

The cross sectional area multiplied by its length of

influence on the longer axis gives the volume

(insitu) in the cross sectional area.

The sum total of the insitu reserves available

within the individual cross sectional area gives the

geological reserves of the lease applied area.

As the recoverable of Gravel in the terms of

cubic meter. The Geological Resource, Mineable

Reserves are given only in terms of Cubic meter.

The Details of estimation of Geological

Resource and Mineable Reserves with reference to

Topography, Geological Plan and Section shown in

(Plate No. II).

a) Geological reserves with

geological sections on a scale of

1:1000.

The quarrying is restricted up to a depth of

0.90m only. Availability of Resources is given

below.

PART – B

9. ENVIRONMENT MANAGEMENT PLAN

9.1 Existing landuse pattern The land is specifically used for collecting the water

during the rainy season.

9.2 Water Regime Ground water is about 20mt depth from ground level.

The quarrying is restricted up to 0.90m from existing

ground profile, hence the quarry operation will not be

affected by the ground water.

9.3 Flora and fauna The main trees are Julia Flora, Neem, etc., There is no

wild life, bird sanctuary, reserve or social forest near

the area applied for quarrying lease. No flora of

botanical interest nor fauna of zoological interest

noticed.

9.4 Climatic conditions Both the North East and South West monsoon occurs

here and the summer are hot and winter are cools.

During April and May the temperature may shoot upto

40°C and during winter the temperature does not fall

below 25°C. The annual rainfall is around 900mm.

9.5 Human settlement

There are few villages located in 5Km radius from the

lease applied area the details of the areas are given

below.

S.No Name of the Village

Approximate

1. Redhills 3.0km - NE 3000

2. Attanthangal 2.0 km - NW 800

3. Kolathur 1.0Km - SE 1800

4. Oragadam 1.0Km –SW 2000

9.6 Plan for air, dust suppression In this conventional Eco friendly quarrying

operation only Excavators are proposed without

drilling and blasting, hence the air quality will not

affect due to the quarrying operation, water will be

sprinkled in the haul roads periodically to suppress

dust Ambient Air Quality monitoring will be carried out

to check the Quality of Air in and around the Quarry.

Water for dust suppression will be brought from

nearby tank after obtaining permission from

panchayat authorities. During transportation the

Gravel will be fully covered by Tarpaulin to prevent

dust and spillage.


11

9.7 Plan for noise level control This Conventional Eco Friendly quarrying

operation does not involve any blasting and drilling

methods, hence noise will be minimal and this is only

due to the movement of Excavators and Trucks.

Periodically Noise level monitoring will be carried out

to check the Noise level in and around the Quarry.

9.8 Environmental impact

assessment statement

describing impact of mining

on the next five years

The life span of the quarry is proposed for the

period of Sixty days only, the Proposed quarrying for a

small production of Gravel does not involve deep hole

drilling and blasting. Such limited mining activity is not

likely to cause any impact adversely on environment

as far as pollution of air, water and noise is concerned.

9.9 Proposal for waste

management

There are no wastages anticipated during the

quarrying operation. The entire Gravel will be

transported to the needy customers site.

9.10 Proposal for reclamation of

land affected during mining

activities and at the end of

mining (refilling / fencing

etc.)

The quarry operation is restricted up to a depth of

0.90m, after removing the Gravel there is no proposal

for backfilling or reclamation. The quarried out land

will be enhance the capacity of the tank. The applicant

ensures to level the floor of the area after quarrying,

The leveling cost would be around Rs.20,000/-.

9.11 Program of afforestation

(indicate extend, number,

name of species to be

afforested)

After the completion of the quarrying operation, the

land will be enhance the Capacity of the PWD Tank.

The applicant ensures to plant native species like

pungam, neem, causirina on the periphery of the tank

bund or nearby villages and village road after

consultation with the panchayat authorities. It is

proposed to plant around 10 trees. The cost estimate

for afforestation is around Rs. 3,000/-

9.12 Proposed financial estimate /

budget for (EMP)

environment management:

The proposed financial estimate budget for EMP is

around Rs. 29,000/- for the period of Sixty days

only.


12

Project cost / investment

i) Land cost It’s a Government Land hence no cost is involved.

ii) Machinery to be used The excavators of 0.90m3 bucket capacity and

tippers of 10/20Ts capacity will be used.

The quantity of Diesel consumption is based on the

working hours of Excavators (Filling Factor and loading

Cycling), in the open cast quarry project Excavators

are proposed to quarry Gravel. Average Diesel

consumption of Hitachi Excavator model EX 110-150 is

10Ltrs/ Hr.

Total number of Excavator used

for quarrying Gravel = 1No

Average Diesel consumption

Tata Hitachi (Model Ex-110-150) = 10Ltr/Hr

Diesel Prize around = Rs. 60 (At present scenario)

Total Excavator running hours for the project

One excavator will excavate 60Cbm/Hour

= 28,350/60Cbm

= 473 Excavator hours

One Excavator will consume 10Ltrs/ hour

Hence 473 X10 = 4730 Ltrs of HSD will be

utilized for the entire project life.

The hired vehicle charges per hour inclusive of diesel

around Rupees 1000/hour

Total running hours = 473hours

=473 hours x Rs.1000

= Rs. 4,73,000/- for the entire project life.

Cost of the project,

For excavation = Rs. 4,73,000/-

Temporary rest shelter = Rs 20,000/-

Sanitary facilities = Rs. 20,000/-

Leveling after quarrying = Rs 20,000/-

Drinking water = Rs. 2,000/-

Sanitary Arrangements = Rs. 2,000/-

Safety kits = Rs 5,000/-

Total cost of the project = Rs. 5,42,000/-

The cost of the project is about (Rupees five lakhs

forty two thousand)

iii) Refilling / Fencing There is no proposal for Refilling, hence no cost is

involved.


13

iv) Laborers shed No labours are proposed for quarrying Gravel. The

machine operators are from nearby local villages,

hence no cost is involved. Rest shelter will be

constructed as semi permanent structure at the cost

of Rs.20,000/-

v) Sanitary facility Sanitary facility will be constructed as semi-

permanent structure, the cost will be around

Rs.20,000/-

vi) Others items Leveling after quarrying = Rs. 20,000/-
