CHAPTER-3

GEOLOGY AND EXPLORATION

A. Briefly describe the general topography explaining whether it is a Plain land or hilly area

and local geology of the mineral deposit within the leasehold. Attach a geological plan on

1:1,000 scale with 1m contour intervals.

Topography

The area is almost a flat terrain which is devoid of vegetation. It is about 1.0km from the village

Senwar in the South direction.

The maximum elevation is about 270 m has been shown in the map/plan.

The lease area has been surveyed on a scale of 1:1,000 with contour interval of one meter.

Climate

The climate is sub-tropical, semi arid, continental and monsoon type. Thus, it has hot summers, cool

winters and small rainy season.

Regional geology

Regionally, the area under study comes under the Chhattisgarh basin. Chhattisgarh basin is the largest

Purana basin of Bastar craton. The craton have several smaller basins like Khariar, Ampani, Indravati

and sabari (Sukma), besides many outliers like Keshkal, Singanpur and Chedrapal. Chhattisgarh basin

covering as area of about 36000 sq. km unconformably overlies the basement granite-gneiss and

volcanics of the Bastar Craton. The southern and eastern margins of the basin have depositional

contact with the basement, whereas the western and northern margins of the basin are fault bounded.

The succession of the basin comprises dominantly of sandstones, shale and carbonates with

subordinate conglomerate and tuffs at different stratigraphic levels.The strata are gently dipping at an

angle of 2-10º, however, along the NS faults. It is bounded by the Kotri-Dongargarh orogen in the

west, Satpura mobile belt in the north, Gondwana graben of Mahanadi in the northeast and the Eastern

Ghats mobile belt in the southeast. In the south, the basin overlies the basement gneiss enclosing the

Sonakhan greenstone belt. Chhattisgarh basin is the third largest Purana basin after the Vindhayan and

Cuddapah, and extends for about 300 km in the E-W and 200 km in the N-S directions, with an

irregular rectangular configuration.

Local Geology:

The area around Senwar village comes under Maniari Formation of Raipur Group of Chhattisgarh

Supergroup. Maniari Formation comprises Purple shale, dolomite, gypsum and dolomite

interbands with Limestone-shale intercalation /ferruginous glauconitic arenite and shale identified

as Pendri member.

The area showing a nature and extent of the mineral body

The area around Senwar which is situated in Tehsil Bilha is covered by limestone of Maniari

formation which lies upon Hirri formation of Raipur Group of Chhattisgarh Supergroup. This

mineral body is homogeneous in nature. On the basis of detailed geological mapping nearby

pits etc of the area and lithology of the area following sequence can be established:

CHAPTER- 6

MANPOWER DEPLOYMENT

State average daily employment and statutory personals:

The quarrying activity has fare chances of employment of local people. In this quarry about 25

employees will be required for quarrying of low grade limestone. Because the quarry operation is

being extending beyond the depth of 6m hence it attack provision of mines act 1952 & metaliferous

mines act 1956. Accordingly the statutory deployment of technical personals is required and one

supervisor required to safety and scientifically exploitation of minerals.

Employment Potential of the quarrying activity and crushing plant operation is listed in the table.

CHAPTER-8

WASTE DISPOSAL ARRANGEMENTS

a) Selection of dumping site:

The area selected for dumping is around the lease boundary of the quarry lease area. Location of

the proposed dumping site is shown in development and production plan (Plate no. 7).

b) Maximum height and spread of dump:

About 0.277 ha area, will be proposed to accommodate this soil material, Dumping of soil will

be stack up the height of 2.0m.

c) Stacking of sub-grade materials:

About 10 % waste material will be generated. This sub grade material is nothing but the crushed

and breakage part of stone. This is usable material and will be used by the permit holder. Hence

it is proposed to stack this sub grade material in a suitable place temporary before shipment.

d) Selection of site for stacking:

Not applicable

e) Height and spread of stacks:

CHAPTER-9

Environment Management Plan

The environment management plan is a complete package of impact mitigations, waste minimization,

management and institutional measures to be taken during implementation and operation of mining to

eliminate the adverse environmental impacts or to reduce them to the acceptable level.

The environmental features which are likely to be affected by mining activities are land use,

topography, drainage pattern, soil, air quality, water resources and water quality, ecology and human

health.

All the above mentioned features are addressed in this plan to ensure the sustainable development and

judicious utilization of non-renewable resources with keeping the pollution level within permissible

assimilative limit. The details are summarizing below:

1. Quarrying area: The lease area is 1.00 ha. It is a non forest, non agricultural and govt. land.

Arpa river is about 10 km in east of the lease area.

No any area of archaeological important structure, sanctuaries lying within 5 km radius.

3.0 Human Settlement:

Nearest village Senwar is present about 1.0km north of the lease area. No villages or human

dwelling are within the quarry lease area. So there will not be any need for re-settlement. The

human settlement in the buffer zone is given below. (Within the radius of 5km)

4.0 Land Environment:

The proposed quarrying operations will only be confined to the quarry area of 1.00 ha and it is not

going to affect the surrounding areas. Inside the area, the proposed production will be carried out by

excavation and dumping of waste material will be on the selected area within the lease area.

The reclamation of the entire area is not possible due to non availability of sufficient quantity of

material / waste rock; hence, at the end of the secession of quarry, this pit may further be converted

into a water pond and used as a natural water harvesting system for collection of rain water. This will

recharge the ground water and may be used by local people.

The extents of land use in hectare for quarrying purposes in each year are given in table:

5.0 Air Environment:

From the proposed open cast Quarrying operation, the main air pollutant would be dust or

particulate matter generated by rock/waste extraction, handling operations, transportation.

Although the impact of these are localised, transitory and intermittent and their effect on

environment will be insignificant. However, following mitigation measures will be adopted to

minimize the air pollution:

1. Regular water sprinkling to suppress the dust on haul roads, service roads and mining face

by sprinklers and truck mounted water tankers.

2. Grading of haul roads, service roads time to time, to remove the accumulated dusty

materials.

3. Proper maintenance of the earth moving equipments and vehicles, checking of exhaust

emission and imposing of speed restrictions on them.

4. Avoiding of overloading of dumpers during the transportation.

5. Development of green belt along quarrying area boundary and soil dumps.

6. Periodical monitoring of air quality to take steps to control the pollutants.

6.0 Water Environment:

Likely impact of Quarry on water table

The area does not falls in notified area under Water Act 1974. The quarrying activity will be confined

to the lease area and there are no perennial streams or nalas present over there. No ground water

pollution will be there as the rock or waste/soil dump of this deposit does not contain any harmful

ingredients, which could leach down to the water table that is much below the lowest quarry bench

level. More over the quarrying activity confined strictly on outcrop and also below surface in one year

plan

Water will not be used for any processing applications in the present quarrying area. Hence, there is

no question of effluent generation. The water will be used only for sprinkling on haul roads, dust

suppression purposes, Loading, afforestation purposes and domestic use like washing/drinking etc.

Details of modification/diversion of natural drainage system /Obstruction of water channels and

measures taken

No modification / diversion are required.

Measures taken for minimizing silting and contamination of water

Not required.

Top soil management:

Before the commencement of excavation, soil filled in fractures of rock wherever encountered

will selectively be removed and stacked to further use for reclamation/ afforestation purposes on



Page | 19

hard terrain and waste dumps. Retention wall will be prepared along the soil dump for prevention

of Contamination of Agriculture land and surface Water.

Tailing Dam Management:

No tailing dam is proposed

Requirement of water for quarrying operations

Water is not required for quarrying operation. Although small quantity of water is required for

drinking and dust suppression purpose which will be meet out from the bore well/river nearby.

Source of water

Arpa River is about 10 km in east from the lease area.

7. Noise & Vibration:

Noise & vibration will generate due to blasting but measures will be taken to keep the noise/

vibration within the permissible norms of limit by using nitrates / gun power for soft and limited

controlled blasting which will reduce the noise and vibration to considerable extend.

Mitigation measures:

1. All machineries and transport vehicles will be properly maintained to minimise the noise

generation.

2. Dense plantation around the quarry area will reduce propagation of noise outside the core

of the quarry and also arrests dust.

3. Controlled blasting will limits the vibration considerably.

Storage of explosive (like capacity and type of explosive magazine)

Blasting will be done by licensed contractor hence magazine is not required in the quarrying site.



Page | 20

8. Human Environment:

The contributing factors that affect the health of people are dust, gaseous pollutants, noise in the

quarry. These are categorized as occupational hazards. The various quarrying operations like

loading/unloading and vehicle movement involve risks and will have to be performed with safety

norms.First –Aid kit and emergency medicines will be kept at quarry site along with a display board

showing the contact no of nearby Medical Doctor / Hospital.

Social Infrastructure

It is expected that the project will lead to much needed employment opportunities in the villages

which will contribute to the socio-economic development of this area.

Rehabilitation and Resettlement (R & R) Plan

Not required as the area is away from village and free from rehabilitation.

Stabilization and Vegetation of dumps:

Dump slopes will be stabilized by planting saplings, grass and good root bearing saplings such as

local species. Retention wall will be made along the dump to channelize the rainwater out of the

dumping area. Development of green belt along quarrying area boundary by planting about 400 trees

during one year period.

Sewerage System

In view of the personals engaged in the project a sewerage system will be developed nearby the

quarry area as per the provisions of clause 20 of Mines Act 1952. This may avoid polluting the land /

water / air of the area.

Environmental Monitoring:

To assess the prevailing quality of the air, water, noise etc. a regular monitoring of these

parameters will be made to arrive at improvement/ protection measures.



Page | 21

CHAPTER-10

Measures to be taken for reclamation of land

Mined out land

The estimated geological reserve in the area is 87988 tons up to depth of 5.5m from ground level. In

this quarry plan period a total of 0.773 ha area has been earmarked for quarry workings. Whereas, in

this plan period, production during one year will be 87941 tons(35176m3) in 1st year . Ultimate pit

limit is fixed keeping pit slope at the angle of 45o. Part of the first year dump will be taken up for

afforestation.

Storage and prevention of topsoil

The topsoil to be encountered in this plan period will be selectively removed and stacked in the area

of 0.277 ha of the quarry area. For preventing of erosion of soil a retention wall will be made along

the soil dump, and height of dump will maximum be maintained up to 2.0m.

Proposal for reclamation of land affected by quarrying activities at the end of the temporary

permit of one year:

At the cessation of quarrying operations after the extractions of minerals, the consolidated waste

dumps will be stabilized and plantation will be taken up above them. The step benches will be made

and Afforestation work will be carried out on them. Care will be taken to transfer the topsoil

preserved separately to put it back on the minedout area and the dump surfaces along with the grass

cover.

CHAPTER-11

Quarrying Closure Plan

Quarry Closure Plan is not required for a temporary permit as per sub rule (2) of rule 58 of

Chhattisgarh Minor mineral Rules, 2015, as amended. The area applied of 1.00 hectare falls between

the Latitude 21°56'55.06"N to 21°56'58.37"N and Longitude 82° 8'8.63"E to 82° 8'12.21"E

in the survey of India Toposheet No 64 K/1. The area comes under Bilha Tehsil of District Bilaspur.

Land Use:

The estimated geological reserve in the area is 87988 tons up to depth of 5.5m from ground level. In

this quarry plan period a total of 0.773 ha area has been earmarked for quarry workings. . Whereas, in

this plan period, production during one year will be 87941 tons(35176m3) in 1st year

Quarrying Method:

This deposit is proposed to be worked by semi mechanized open-cast mining method using wheel

Loader and dumpers etc. The benches of mine will be made from the surface and bench height

will be maintained at 1.5m in this plan period.

Reasons for Closure:

The quarry depth will not be blocked . The quarry owner may exploit the same and proceed

further deep after taking due clearances according to acts and rules applicable. Hence the detailed

quarry closure plan is not required at this stage.

Statutory Obligation:

Any legal statutory obligations from State Government, Mineral Resource Department, Ministry

of Environment & Forest, State and Central Pollution Control Board or by any other Private.

Organization will be implemented.

Quarrying Machinery:

Most of the quarrying machinery deployed will be hired. After the mine closure, these will be

returned back to their respective owners.



Page | 23

Safety and Security:

The total area excavated will be fenced properly with single opening left for the workers engaged

in closure plan work.

Disaster Management & Risk Assessment:

No high risk accidents are anticipated, as the project is an open cast manual type of quarrying

operation in a fairly stable area and free from land subsidence, earthquake etc. no tailing dam is

proposed and risks associated with it will not come into picture.

However, in case anything happens then the designated Mines Manager will take care and manage

the situation. A communication and transport facility will be provided by the lease owner at their

disposal which will help in evacuating persons involved in any accidents.

Care and maintenance during temporary discontinuance:

During such time, the area will be fenced and temporary staff will be arranged for taking care and

maintenance.

Financial Assurance

Financial Assurance of Rs. 25000/- will be submitted to the authorities as the lease area is 1.00 ha.

(25000.00 Rs. Per hectare as per Rule 29 (1) of Chhattisgarh Minor Mineral Rules 2015
