(ii) Brief Description of Nature of Project:

Mining lease is granted in khasra no. 1541/657 in revenue village - Becha

Wali Ki Dhani (Tan Pratappura) of Tehsil - Khetri, District Jhunjhunu,

Rajasthan, lease area 1.00 Ha. (Enclosed copy of lease agreement as

annexure no.-1). Khasra wise details of area proposed to be granted for

mining lease is enclosed as annexure no-4). This mining Lease is situated in

Becha Wali Ki Dhani (Tan Pratappura) of Tehsil Khetri, District Jhunjhunun

(Rajasthan) over an area of 1.00 Ha. It is proposed for mining of mineral

Masonry Stone. Mining of Masonry Stone would be carried out by open cast

benching method. The bench height will be kept up to 3 meters the width of

the bench will be always more than the height. The mining will start from

top towards bottom. Mining will be semi-mechanized.

(iii) Need for the project and its importance to the country and region

The state of Rajasthan is endowed with minor and major mineral resources.

Minor mineral is playing a pivotal role in economy of Rajasthan. Masonry

stone (Cheja Patthar) mining in the allotted area is feasible. Mineral masonry

stone (Cheja patthar) is extensively used in construction and infrastructure

projects. Proposed project of masonry stone (Cheja patthar) has the

indigenous demand. By this proposed project of masonry stone mining in the

area local people will get employment & thus will make their better living

standards, provide basic facilities such as drinking water, road, education

and medical etc. in its close vicinity. The state government will get revenue

in the form of royalty, taxes etc. and thus contribute to regional and national

economy.

(iv) Demand and Supply Gap

There is large demand of masonry stone for road, railway track, building

construction etc. In past, demand was not too much but at this time demand of

Masonry stone is increasing. At present, there is constant demand of masonry

stone in the area.



(v) Imports v/s Indigenous Production

As the mineral in abundance is available indigenously so the import of the

same is not required nor economically feasible being a low cast mineral.

(vi) Export possibility

Export of mineral masonry stone is not feasible. Masonry Stone can be

sufficiently absorbed in the local market, it will not be exported.

(vii) Domestic/Exports Markets

There is always an increasing demand of masonry stone in domestic markets.

(viii) Employment generation (Direct & Indirect) due to the project

By this mining project of Masonry Stone in the area, peoples will get

employment. The project directly generates the employment for the local

people and indirectly for the others. Also the marketing of the product

generates the employment for peoples. By this project, approximately 10

persons will get direct and indirect employment from the Masonry Stone

mining project.

A. Method of Mining

A haul road of gradient maintained 1 in 16 as per MMR 1961 is exists in the

mine. Approach roads are provided upto the working pit for movements of

labourers and vehicles.

Hydraulic dumpers and tippers will be deployed for transportation of masonry

stone (Cheja Pathar) form working to consumers. It is an existing mining lease

of Cheja pathar and presently mining is being done adopting opencast method.

The existing production capacity of the lease is 200 TPD. The mining is

proposed to be done in combination with hydraulic excavator, Compressor

with 100-115 mm dia drill and dumpers. The height of the bench is kept

limited to 6 meter and width of the bench shall not be less than the bench

height. Face slope is 85°, whereas ultimate pit slope is proposed 45°.

4 Rear Hydraulic Tippers/dumpers 20-25 MT 4

5 Water Tanker 3000 Liter 1

B. Regional Geology

The area covers part of Jhunjhunun and Sikar districts of Rajasthan and a

small part in the northeast falls in Mahendragarh district of the Haryana State.

The area is well connected by roads and railway line. The Phulera – Rewari

railway line passes through the area. The area exhibits semi-arid climate with

average annual rainfall of 460mm. the area is drained by Northerly – flowing

Chandrawati River with its tributaries. Besides, a number of ephemeral

streams showing dendritic to sub-dendritic pattern present in the area, which

either join the Chandrawati River or die out in the sandy terrain. The meta-

sedimentary rocks exposed in the area comprise meta-areanites, meta-argillites

with intercalated calcareous rocks. These belong to the Delhi Super Group

(Palaeo to meso Proterozoic). The arenaceous rocks are grouped under the

Alwar group and meta-argillites with calcareous rocks are grouped under the

Ajabgarh Group. Granite, amphibolites and other intrusive rocks are also

found in the area. The Alwar group comprises mainly massive quartzites

which are exposed in the hills in Southeastern part of the area. The quartzite’s

are massive, fine to medium grained and grey, buff or brown colour and

belongs to the Pratapgarh formation of the Alwar group. The quartzites are

showing NE-SW strike with 65 to 75 dip easterly. Amphibolite intrudes most

of rocks of the Delhi Super Group in the area and is of wide distribution, but it

is prominently seen in the vicinity of Khetri and north of Papurna. These are

two types: coarse to medium grained and massive ones generally occurring in

pellitic rocks as large bodies, roughly parallel to regional strike and rocks. The

other type is confined to the arenaceous rocks as thin, cross-cutting dykes

trending NNW-SSE or NW-SE. these are fine grained and more closely

fractured. The amphibolites are steeply dipping to near – vertical and represent

metamorphosed basic intrusive.

Delhi Super Group Ajabgarh Group Khushalgarh

Formation Calc gneiss and Quartzite

C. Local Geology of the area

Geologically, the rocks in the lease area are mainly Calc-gneiss Quartzite,

belonging to Ajabgarh group of Delhi Super Group.



D. Yearwise annual production of masonry stone for next five years

Table 1.3 The details of production are as follows

Year Masonry Stone (Cheja Pathar) in MT

I 1,10,400

II 1,10,400

III 1,10,400

IV 1,10,400

V 1,10,400

Total 5,52,000

E. Mineable Reserves and Anticipated Life of the Mine

All in situ reserves will not be possible to mined out as there will be some

mineral will be left un-mined i.e. in road barrier, ramp etc. it is assumed about

10% so net mineable reserve will be:

Total mineable reserves = 1127838 Tonne

The proposed rate of production for the first five years is 1,10,400 Tonne per

annum. Expected life of mine on the basis of proved & probable category of

reserves from the present targeted rate of production: 1127838/1,10,400 =

10.21years or say 10 years.

F. Conceptual Mining Plan

Conceptual Simplified Mining Scheme is necessary to know the ultimate limit

of the pit crust at surface at the end of lease period. It is also necessary to

select the sites for waste dump, site service, plantation etc. in such a place that

these sites should not get any disturbance during the life of mine. Considering

the aforesaid aspects the conceptual plan as follow:

Ultimate extent and size of the pit

The ultimate extent and size of the pit will be as follows:

Length of the working 151.66 meters

Width of the working 45 meters

Depth of the working 25 meters

The final Slope angle adopted

Considering the stability of rocks the final slope angle or says ultimate pit

slope is proposed 45°. This slope angle will remain quite safe for these

deposits.



Ultimate capacity of dumps: It is a masonry stone (Cheja Pathar) mine. The

maximum quantity of stone, like lump, grit etc has market. The waste will

come around 8% towards maximum in the form of powder and weathered

stone. This waste will be used for construction and maintenance of kucha

approach road time to time. Thus, no waste will be left at site and thus waste is

not proposed to dump in the applied lease area. However a site of 0.01 hectare

will be provided for temporary dump.

Stabilization of dumps: The waste dump will be stabilized by constructing a

rubble stone wall of 0.5X0.5 meters in width and height towards lower altitude

side of the dumps.

Ultimate pit limit: The general ground level outside the lease area is around

400 mRL. Proposed deepest working will be far above the ground water table.

It will be up to 414 mRL, which is far above the level of ground water table.

Thus ground water will not encounter in the workings.

G. Raw material required along with estimated quantity, likely source,

marketing area of final products/s, Mode of transport of raw Material

and Finished Product.

About 4.5 KLD water will be required for Masonry Stone mining which will

be arranged from PHED supply from village Becha Wali ki Dhani (Tan

Pratappura). About 500 liter diesel will be required daily for JCB &

Trucks/Dumpers which will be arranged from nearby petrol pumps. Masonry

Stone mined out will be transported through trucks & trolley.

H. Resource optimization/recycling and reuse envisaged in the project, if

any, should be briefly outlined.

Water will be accumulated in the excavated mine out pit area during rains and

pits serve as a natural ground water recharge structure. As a result of

extraction of mineral, the rate of charging of ground water is likely to be

increased considerably. Water collected in the sump will be used in various

purposes at mine viz. plantation, dust suppression etc.

I. Availability of water its source, Energy/power requirement and source

should be given.

Total water requirement in the mine will be about 4.5 KLD for drinking &

domestic use, dust suppression and plantation. Drinking water will be brought by



water tanker from nearby villages. Diesel will be used in compressor, JCB and

dumpers and tractors. About 500 liter per day is assumed to be consumed. Diesel

will be outsourced from nearby diesel pumps. Nearby villages is well electrified.

Fig. 1.3 Water requirement during various purposes at Mine Site

(ix) Quantity of wastes to be generated (liquid and solid) and scheme for their

management/disposal

It is a masonry stone (Cheja Pathar) mine. The maximum quantity of stone,

like lump, grit etc has market. The waste will come around 8% towards

maximum in the form of powder and weathered stone. This waste will be used

for construction and maintenance of kucha approach road time to time.

However a site of 0.15 hectare will be provided for temporary dump.

(x) Schematic representations of the feasibility drawing which give

information of EIA purpose

Proposed project is of B2 category mining project in the light of MOEF office

memorandum no. J-13012/12/13-IA-II(1) dated 24th December, 2013. B2

category mining projects are required to obtain EC from SEAC (State level expert

appraisal committee) before commencement of the project in lieu of MOEF,

however half yearly monitoring of Air, Water & Noise environment would be

periodically carried out and monitoring report would be submitted to MOEF &

State Pollution Control Board.
