of the area is rugged. The highest altitude recorded within the area is 1914 mRL near southeast corner of
the ML near pillar D and the lowest contour is 1700 mRL near pillar K at North West corner of ML.
The area is drained by the seasonal water flowing from top of the hill down the slope towards north west
and joins on Garag Ka Khalla which further flows to Palor Ka Khalla at a distance of 4km and in turn
meets Giri river flowing at about 6.5 km distance from lease area.
1.3.0 Local Geology
In this area limestone, dolomitic limestone, sporadic shale striking east - west and steeply dipping at 550
to 620 towards north east are occurring .ShaleIn this area red and grey shale is overlying the mineral
limestone. Limestone bands of high grade and low grade and dolomitic limestone bands lies in contact
with shale striking NW - SE. In this area about 320 m long limestone band is outcropping at the surface
and the width is varying from 170 m towards northwest and 150m towards south east. The limestone
band is locally grey to dark grey in colour with elephantal weathering. The mineralized rocks show colour
bending. In the low grade limestone band two high grade bands of 10m to 15m thickness along the strike

1.5.0 Mineral Beneficiation
Sorting sizing dressing & breaking shall be carried out manually. If any kind of impurities shall be
observed within limestone lumps, it shall be broken with hammer and dressed manually and stacked
separately. On physical examination (on the basis of whiteness), different grade of limestone shall be
stacked on the benches & loaded on to the trucks/dumpers. The mineral for which additional control is
required would be transported to crushing plant situated outside the ML where crushing and screening
and further sorting is done.
1.6.0 Present method of working
1.6.1 The deposit is planned for mechanized opencast method of mining. The mining operations and
excavation are presently carried out by drilling upto a depth of 1.5-2.0 mts with the help of jack
hammers, followed by blasting and excavation using JCB. The present machinery used are jack hammers,
compressors and JCB.
Development of pit 1 & 2
A- An approach road has been constructed from village satrorika, connecting the top of the mine (RL 1922). This road has been constructed partly within ML for about 250m long with a width of 6 to 8m
in shale and partly in lime stone zone. This road will be used for mining for upper pit & further pit can
be developed down below.
B- Another approach road has been taken from junction of village satrorika to connect explosive Magazine and middle pit (pit II) & from this road two benches have been connected with ramps.
C- For pit- 3 at lower level- An approach road from junction of Sangrah / Dadhuu high way has been constructed to connect pit-3
which is at lower altitudes and 5 benches have been formed.

1.6.2 Bench height varies from 13m to 25m as the topography of the area is very steep 300 to 40
0. The
maintenance of benches and construction of road to the benches is very difficult. The mine is being
worked by semi-mechanised method using dozer and excavator with shallow hole drilling by jack
hammer and blasting. The mineral is manually loaded on the trucks and transported to the plant situated
at 8 10 km distance. The generation of waste varied from 20 to 25% and has been dumped along the
slopes partly in overlying shale and partly on mineralized land and also for construction of road and
ramps. Part of the waste dump area has been reclaimed by afforestation and surrendered as per the
advice of forest department.
The details of present status of waste dumps in ML area are given below:

1.6.3 Proposed Mining Method
It is proposed to develop existing two pits only i.e.pit no.1 and pit no. 3. According to the occurrence of
mineral and topography of the land it is proposed to develop pits in NW SE direction by forming
benches of 10m height and width with a slope of 700. The gradient of the road and ramp proposed is 1 in
10 however at places because of topography it may not be possible to maintain the slope of 1 in 10.The
pit no. 1 is approachable by Kaccha road coming from Satroriki Dhar- sangrah village which is located on
the extreme southeast margin of the lease area and is on the higher altitude. Pit no. 2 is located in the
middle of lease area and is at the lower altitude than the pit no. 1. The pit no. 1 is proposed to be
developed in a manner that in next 5 years it will merge with pit no. 2.
The mining will be by mechanised open cast, using wagon drill for blast holes and 1.2 cubic mts bucket
excavator and rock breaker for excavation and loading. On the mining faces mineral will be manually
sized to 8 boulders. Sorted mineral / graded mineral will be loaded in to the dumpers / trucks for
transportation to the crushing plant situated outside M.L area mine. The inter burden waste comprising
of shale / phylite will be loaded in to the dumpers by excavator and will be transported to the dumping

site adjacent to the ML area. The mining is proposed by forming of benches of 10 mtr height and width
more than 10m. The proposal has been made to systematize the present working .For Necessary
permission, application has been submitted to Director Mines Safety, Gaziabad (under regulation 106 (2)
b of MMR 1960) on 21.11.2011.
Slope of the benches
Slope of the benches will be maintained 70 o with the horizontal.
Overall pit slope 300 and ultimate pit slope 450.
Direction NW SE. Benches will be along contour.
The advancements of the faces are towards NE SW.
It is to be highlighted that the current mining plan was prepared during 2011-12 and approved by IBM on
dated 07.09.2012. The year wise projections of five year period (2012-17) was done for production of
mineral ,waste ,reclamation and all other in puts & out puts. As EC was not available, no physical activity
commenced .Hence as and when mining commences the first year projection would be same as that of
planned 2012-13 period and subsequent period would be accordingly shifted.
1.7.0 Stacking of Mineral Rejects and Disposal of waste
There is no top soil generation. The shale within dolomitic, limestone is occurring as inter burden waste.
Total generation of waste rock in five year (2012-17) is proposed to be 63650 m3 only.
1.8.0 Extent of Mechanization
Activities
Removal of top soil, if any By manual labour / excavator

However the mining will not intersect underground water hence no dewatering is proposed during life of
the mine.
Surface water
Seasonal water bodies flowing in the study area are Garag ka khala & Polar ka khala which ultimately
joins the perennial Giri river. These water bodies are flowing in the buffer zone and no water bodies are
found flowing in the core zone.The samples were collected from five locations and analyzed in NABL Lab
of Wolkem India limited. The quality of water is within permissible limit.
2.1.5 Noise:- It has been observed that the noise level at all locations found to be well below the
specified limits.

2.1.8 Soil
The Soil sampling & analytical studies were carried out during summer season of year 2012-13.The
soil cover in the high attitudes is very thin because of rocky nature of area. During rain due to erosion of
rocks , fine particles are brought down which settles on slopes, valley and depressions in low lying areas.
The soil cover in low-lying areas enables the local inhabitants in agricultural activities. The soil cover of
0.1 to 0.2m thickness is observed at places, on the top of the hill in samlati land area. Soil samples were
collected from six different locations namely; Top soil Sangrah , Over burden Sangrah , Rajana Village,
Barag village, Borli Village & Nerabag Village. In all soil samples it is found that all the parameters are
well below the permissible limit.
2.1.9 Flora and Fauna

2.1.10 Population of the Study Area
According to the Census Book 2001 as well as site study, the statistics regarding the number of
dwelling units of villages in the study core zone is Nil. However 60 villages in buffer zone with 4219
households are indicated. On this basis, the population of the study area is estimated to be 25,783 in the
study area, i.e. within 10 km from periphery from Mine Lease area.
3.1.0 Anticipated Environmental impacts & mitigative measures
3.1.1 Ambient Air
Ambient air quality measured in the core & buffer zone is reflection of mining activities not due to
Sangrah limestone mine alone but also due to concurrent mining and other activities of the buffer zone,
traffic on the road passing through the ML and other activities in the adjacent villages. However, the
mining activities are not going to cause any adverse impact since the incremental increase and predicted
PM10 at the nearby villages are within the norms of the residential area.
Control measures
(i) Wet drilling is proposed to reduce the dust generated from it. (ii) Water sprinkling will be done on haul roads, waste dumps so that dust will be settled down, and
will reduce generation of dust.
(iii) The breaking of minerals will be done manually and since the mineral is also moist practically there will be negligible dust generation.
(iv) Transportation of mineral will be done on Tarred road and trucks will be covered by tarpaulin which will reduce air pollution, predicted.
(v) Regular maintenance of machinery and vehicle will be done to check the excess emissions. A system of regular overhauling of dumper & excavators, after specified hours of working shall be
evolved and observed to avoid generation of obnoxious fumes.

(vi) Green belt with tall trees are planted. It will absorb the particulates and reduce the concentration of SO2, NOx .
(vii) Plantation in safety Zone will also protect the soil from wind erosions. (viii) Cultivation of grasses on dumps will reduce wind erosion. (ix) Personnel protective equipments will be provided even to the women workers also who are
facing dust during loading & unloading of minerals
3.1.2 Impact on Water Environment (Surface water Flow)
Surface runoff water through the mining pits, waste dumps, top soil stacks is likely to cause land erosion & take silts with it to the surface water sources like polar ka khala, Garag ka Khala & Giri River
due to which silts are likely to be accumulated over the nalla & river beds. However there will be no
impact as the Limestone does not contain any toxic substance which can directly harm to the Biotic or
Abiotic components of the environment.
Rising of nalla bed/ river bed may increase highest flood level.
Water quality - The water will pass through broken lithlogical units, waste dump & its quality is likely to affect. The OB and mineral are naturally occurring minerals and are nontoxic and therefore there
will be no toxicity in water
Ground water flow
People of the area does not depend on ground water, mining will be much above ground water table. Since water table is deep i.e 30 m below the lowest working RL & mining will be carried out much
above the water table there will be no impact on ground water.
The baseline study done for water flow & surface water quality does not show any impact of mining and allied activities on water quality and quantity.
Mitigation measures
I- Garland Drainage/Earthen Mound:- In open cast mining pits as well as on dumps it is necessary that
the rainwater falling outside the edge limit of the working areas should not be allowed to enter into the
pit and workings. Therefore it is proposed to develop garland drains for proper drainage of water and a
set of garland drainages will be made in the mining as shown in Plate No. VI of EIA /EMP. The water will
be accumulated at the lower most gradient by constructing siltation tanks/ loose stone check dams
which will act as siltation tank & water reservoir in the buffer zone. Silts will be regularly cleared from
the siltation pond / check dams.
ii- Surface Water :- Surface water is not likely to be affected since the nallas will be left as it is and will
neither be blocked nor diverted. All water drains from the pits will be constructed in such a way that the
water is drained to nallas through check dams before joining the main flow. The surface runoff water will
be diverted away from mining pits and dumps through garland drains and water drains. No natural water
stream is disturbed.
iii- Erosion of land of mining pits and external dump :
In this area of steep topography the speed of run of water is very high and therefore, there is a
possibility of land erosion of mining pits and external dumps in the form of landslides bench collapses,
bench failures .But the pits are designed to disallow the flow of rain water in the pits, and safety
precautions will be taken by disallowing the entry of workers during the rains. Proper retaining walls and
parapet walls are proposed to control and counter the effect of rain water.Proper drainage of water,

xx
benching & terracing of dumps will reduce landslides. At the toe of the dump retaining walls will be
provided so that erosion will be minimized. To reduce the speed of water gully plugs will be constructed
at appropriate places.
3.1.3 Noise levels
Grounds of Impact
Use of equipments and vehicles during the operations.
Jack hammer and compressor will generate noise during drilling. Jack hammer & wagon drill operators will also be subjected to vibration.
Blasting will lead to the generation of noise and Vibrations. There is no building likely to be effected by ground vibration generated due to blasting. Use of explosive at a time will also be less and
therefore vibration generated due to blasting will be minimum.
Movement of vehicles at the time of transportation will generate noise. The operations of machineries will be subjected to vibration
Mitigative Measures
Plantation on both sides of road passing from mining lease area which will provide noise barriers for point sources and line sources.
Rock breaker is also proposed to reduce frequency of blasting.
Cabins in machines & isolation of equipments.
Quarterly monitoring of noise level will be done at the stations identified. Regular medical examination of workers for audiometery as well as general health checkups will be done for the
operators of the machineries so that any impact due to vibrations of the machineries etc can be
detected.
Use of PPE like ear muffs etc. by workers (womens also) on duty will be ensured.
Proper and timely maintenance of machines excavator, transport vehicle will help to check and reduce sound nuisance as much as possible.
Controlled blasting techniques will be used. Blasting will be carried out once in a day time for very small duration, i.e. for few seconds only. Muffling will be adopted to reduce the impacts of blasting.
3.1.4 Flora and Fauna Mitigation measures
There will be no impact on biodiversity, wildlife habitat, migratory corridors, migratory avi-fauna, rare and endangered species, medicinal plants etc due to mining activities since there is no forest
present in the core zone.
The plant species proposed for greenbelt development along PWD road and patches and van panchayat will include local species, fruit plants, forestry plants suitable for fuel wood timber and
grasses.
As per the records of forest department the wild life in the area will get suitable food chain due to plantation and implementation of wild life conservation plan.
Wild life conservation plan has also been provided at a capital cost of Rs 3.00 lac and annual revenue cost of Rs. 3.70 lac.
3.1.5 Land
Land area is likely to be degraded due to quarrying / pitting, dumping, roads, workshop, processing
plant, township etc. The breakup of the land to be used due to mining & allied activities at the end of 5th
year and during the current lease period (2022) is given under para 2.1.7.
