4.0 GEOLOGY & EXPLORATION To prepare present Mining Plan , entire mining lease area have been surveyed and

mapped by the Total Station & GPS . The contour interval has been kept to 1

mts. . A surface plan is prepared on 1:1000 scale plate no. 3. To show surface

features like topographic elevation with contour , drainage patterns , roads ,

natural water courses , mine workings, Overburden , Dumps, backfilling area,

Electric Line passing through the area & non active dump rehabilitated by

plantation..

4.1 GENERAL TOPOGRAPHY & LOCAL MINE GEOLGY:-

Topographically the lease area represents low topography. The lies near village

Khari Charnan fall in Topo sheet No. 45 A/13.

The area is almost plain land with few depressions and undulations . Highest

contour is 100m MSL towards Northern Side of the area in near Pillar A & B and

lowest contour is 99m MSL. In extreme Mid position of lease area South Side of

Pillar E & F Southern side of lease area .. The area is Gravel , Murrum &

Friable Sand Stone and mix with Silica Sand and Ball Clay.. The altitude

difference is 01mts.

No seasonal drains exists in the lease area.

4.2 REGIONAL GEOLGY

The regional geology concept has been used while studying the local geology,

structure and correlation of the clay horizons and the associated rock types. The

regional and general geology of the area has been refereed from an article of Sri

R.N. Ghosh, G.S.I. this article was published in Indian Mineral 1983. The

geological map of the Kolayat area is also from this article Mr. R.N. Ghosh,

during his investigation of the area in 1969-70 noted an extensive nature of

occurrence of these sedimentary clays in Kolayat Region.

The stratigraphy sequence is given below

4.3 Local Geology

The lease area is covered by Sand , Gravel, Murrum & Friable Sand Stone,

Silica Sand, Clay. These units are distinctly marked on the Surface Geological

plan. The Clay are undoubtly Tertiary Formations. The geological studies

revels that there are three clay bed having average 12-13 mts thick.

Note:- Friable Sand Stone (Bajri) mix with Kankar & sand is very low grade

so cant separate dumping.

The Litho Units presents in the area are as under:-

4.4 Prospecting and exploration already done in the area :-

Exploration work not done this time because area is fresh area. after

sanction of lease area exploration has been proposed for mining of clay. The

details of Trial pit is shown in the Surface & Geological Plan enclosed as Plate

No. 3& 4.

Presently in the mining lease area , only one Trial pit is proposed . The locations

of Prospecting Pit are shown in Plate No. 3 & 4.

The extent of working and Geological exposures in the lease as well as in the near

leases show that the main clay bed is existing at a depth of 5.5m from the surface.

The clay bed is dipping 20-3

0 . due Southern side.

4.5 Structure & Mineralization :- The clay deposits as motioned earlier are generally flat with undulating wavy

contacts. It exhibits pinching and swelling characteristics. The mineralization

along with overlying overburden is almost horizontal. It is also warping along

both strike and dip directions at places. No major faults , folds or any other

structural features have been observed in the area.

4.6 Mode of occurrence:-

The clay in general is intercalated with localized mixture of alteration of sand

with ferruginous coating. The quality of clay in term of grain site, plasticity,

binding strength show the sign of improvement in depth and sorting and dressing

will be required to separate iron stains and large chunks of alternations of sand

stone for enhancing the commercial value of clay.

EXPLORATION PROPOSED IN THE NEXT FIVE YEARS

Two Proposed Trial Pit & One explorative trial pit , namely PTP 1 To

PTP 2 & TP of 35m depth are proposed to be put in the next five years . PTP 1

& 2, will help for development of mine and prove the availability , thickness and

quality of clay bed.

The location of Two trial pit are shown in Development plan (Plate 5).

The Location and time schedule of PTP 1 to PTP2 are given below:-

6.2 Proposed Mining Method

The overburden mainly consist ,Gravel Murrum & Friable Sand Stone mix with Kankar & Sand,, which will be removed with helps of small capacity excavator and separately

stacks. The Clay & Silica Sand production for the next five years is proposed 195,000 MT

per years. The recovery is considering 90% of the total production. For these purpose two

benches will be developed for the overburden . height (3.0m) . After developing those benches

clay, Silica Sand will be exposed and Five benches will be developed for clay, Silica Sand of

height ( 3.0mts.) The excavation of the clay, Silica Sand will be done with the help of small

capacity excavator and separately stacks. The mineral ball clay will be broken up to required

size by hammering and removal of foreign material of iron oxide coating attached with some

Ball clay lumps. The mineral clay bed is basically soft and easily extractable by small

capacity excavator. In this view of the above drilling & blasting of rock not be required . It is

proposed to carry out the work of excavation without drilling & Blasting

6.3 Opencast Working :

The mine will be worked by opencast method in which benches are been formed

and the Ball Clay, has been mined out.

Mode of working will be Semi - Mechanized

A surface layout plan has been prepared to show the site for existing of

overburden indicating mine working ( plate no.6) & new waste will be dumped .

6.4 Underground Working : No underground working will be done

6.5 Extent of Mechanization : Working will be done by Semi – Mechanized method (i) Extent of Semi-mechanized and/or Machines in Mining

Mining will be done by Semi-mechanized.

6.6 CONCEPTUAL MINING PLAN;

6.6.1 Time frame of completion exploration programme in lease hold area. Give broad description identifying potential areas to be covered in the given time frame.

Though there are enough evidence of mineralization in the area which give sufficient

knowledge for mineralization and Ball clay, Silica Sand is sedimentary deposits having

sufficient evidence of deposits all around the lease area which so there is no need to put any

trial pit after five year plan period as exploration has been planned in the ensuing plan

period.

6.6.2 Whether ultimate pit limit has been determined and demarcated on Surface

and Geological Plan. Yes, ultimate pit limit envisaged has been determined and demarcated on plan & also

Conceptual limit has been demarcated on Conceptual Plan.

6.6.3 Whether the site(s) for disposal of waste rock and un-saleable Ores has/have been

examined for adequacy of land and suitability of long term use in the event of

continuation of mining activities.

The waste generated during the ensuing plan period will be backfilled in the

excavated area and already existing non active dump is rehabilitated by plantation

by making terraces & it will not be re-handle.

In the coming five year total overburden generation will be 162750cu.mts. taking

swell factors 1.25. It will be 203437cu.mts. say 203437cu.mts. Similarly in the

remaining in the next 11 years @32550 say 32550cu.mts. per year waste will be

generated 358050cu.mts. The total overburden generation will be up to the

renewal lease period 162750+ 358050 = 520800cum. This overburden will be

backfilled in the excavated area end of mine life . 6.6.4 Whether back-filling of pit(s) after recovery of Ore/Mineral up to techno-

economically feasible depth envisaged. If so, describe the broad of the proposals.

The dump will be backfill in the excavated pit on the earmarked in the surface

layout plan

6.6.5 Post Mining Land Use Envisaged.

After the mining is over the area is likely to be some part backfilled of excavated area because

after complete excavated mine we will shape as a pond. As extensive plantation will be done a

green belt will develop in the area and along pond periphery . At the end of life OF mine,

Plantation( Conceptual Plan) will be done on backfilled and reclaimed area.

7.0 BLASTING

No blasting is done , because the deposit is sedimentary . It is soft material

14

8.0 MINE DRAINAGE:-

8.1 Surface Water:- There are no water bodies in the area, only rain water from the

local area flows through it otherwise it remain dry though out the year therefore the

question of percolation of water from outside does not arise. The topography of the

area is plain and water will be flow in natural direction.

There is no prominent surface water bodies in the area & in Khari charnan

village. There is no river except a few short intermittent and employment

channel.

No seasonal drains exists in the lease area.

That in order to arrest rain water going in, in the pit garland is made around the pits.

The Clay , Silica Sand is not toxic and will not cause any pollution in surface water.

8.2 Ground Water:- There is no prominent surface water bodies are present in the lease

area as well as in the buffer zone area except kolayat Sarowar which about 25.0kms.

from mine.

The working in five years will reach up to 21 m Depth from Surface. & Ultimit Pit

Depth will be 35m. The Water table in the area is from the surface 120 mts. Bgl – below ground level is consider 120-130mts hence no effect will take place on

surface water regime. The area is in a safe zone.

8.3 Quality of Water:- The quality of ground water lease area is not potable and

suitable for drinking as well as for agriculture purposes.

15

9.0 WASTE DISPOSAL ARRANGEMENTS : 9.1 Nature of Waste :-

Overburden : - The Waste consist of Friable Sand Stone mix with Kankar &

sand. Friable Sand Stone mix with Kankar & sand is very low grade But we

are separate stacking. These are complete part of Over Burden (Waste

material) and calculation have already given in development programme.

The total overburden in the period of five year will be 162750 cu.mts. from the

proposed working. There is no tailing involved as beneficiation will not be done.

There is Top Soil.

(a) Sub Grade Mineral : There are sub grade mineral. Only rejects consist of

non Marketable Clay, Silica Sand with high percentage stacking of impurities

, which is in the contact of ferrogenious sandstone. The total percentage of

the rejects is 10% of the total production.

9.2 Selection of Dumping Site :- (a) Overburden :- The overburden will be backfilled in the barren pit or

excavated pits ( after proving that there is no mineral left) . As shown on the

ear mark in surface layout plan. The waste generated during the ensuing plan

period waste will be dumped on proposed dump yard. Some waste will be

used by local people for making leveling of general ground surface. Good

plantation has been done by making terracing and retaining wall/ rubble wall

and garland drain at the bottom of the dump site. In next five year backfilling

not proposed because mineral bed exist in working pit .

(b) Mineral Clay Stack : The stacking of mineral Ball Clay, will be done at the

proposed site shown on the plan. , as the mineral ball Clay is dispatched

regularly, there is no problem of stacking the mineral Ball Clay. However

provision to stack mineral will be done. Mineral Silica Sand , shown The stacking of mineral not proposed because mineral direct loading in truck by screening process . Screening

( Local language Chaal) will be done at the site shown on the plan. (c) Sub Grade mineral :- There are sub grade mineral . Rejects produced in the

sorting operation will be dumped in the place specified for the same in the

plate. 16

10.0 USE OF MINERAL

Ball Clay :-Clay is a highly plastic variety of clay of kaolin group like China Clay and ball Clay but

has less refractoriness . the Chemical Composition of Ball Clay is similar to that of China Clay ,

except that the Ball Clay contains a large proportion of silica.

The main utility of Ball Clay lies in the plasticity, high bonding qualities and tensile strength. It is

therefore , used in bled with non-plastic to semi-plastics clays for obtaining requisite plasticity . It is

added in various proportions for the preparation of body composition of various sanitary wares ,

bathtub tiles , porcelain etc.The BIS has prescribed the following specification ( IS : 4589-1968 ) for

Ball Clay for use in the Ceramic Industry:-

The material shall be in the form of lumps, free from any foreign matter and shall be highly

plastic when wet. The lumps shall slake in water and from a smooth suspension when dispersed. The

color of the material when fired at 13500 C shall be light gray or light cream and free from any specks

or patches.It is observed the clays existing in the lease area are of good plastic nature, medium

grained and with good witness index, some clay is having iron impurities . the Clay is generally

classified in three grade A,B, & C.

12.0 MINERAL PROCESSING

Ball Clay :- Remove the Iron Content from Ball Clay lumps by

Axe And shorting also and make grade.

Silica Sand :-Mineral beneficiation ( Screening) is done for mineral Silica

Sand this Manual mechanical process. In this process , screening is done by

Chaal to remove the Big Boulders & Stone with help of screeners (Chaal) etc.

exist at the site.

The R.O.M. Silica Sand produced from the mines contains impurities such as

Stone stains as well as at some places. In order to supply to various industries

some small Manually processing involving Screening is essential. The processing

involved can be classified in the followings stage.

1. Screening

2. Grading.

1. Screening:- The process of sorting is based on the physical properties of Silica Sand .

Its color, Grain fines. This is done by screening process. Separation of stone &

ferruginous inclusions by screeners ( Chaal). No mineral processing of any kind is

undertaking at mine except proper sizing of R.O.M. and removal of foreign ,material of

Stone. The mineral Silica Sand is separation by screening process.

2. Grading:- After Screening the material is grade-Wise separately for Sell.

19

13.0 ENVIRONMENT MANAGEMENT PLAN:-

13.1 BASE LINE INFORMATION:-

Mining is nothing but waging war against nature this cause temporary

imbalance or permanent change in the existing environmental conditions of

the active area and the surrounding area. Due no mining activities land , water,

air and socio –economic environment is affected. These effects may be gradual or rapid , degrading or degenerating , polluting or injuring, damaging

for preparation of meaning full environment plan natural/degraded

environment conditions existing before and after mining activities in an area

are to be studied analyzed confirmed , after making due corrections ,and

compared with the standards laid down. Remedial measures are then

suggested in the areas requiring attention. For purposes of this mining plan

base line information about existing environment condition have been

collected from various Govt. sources like Irrigation, Agriculture , Soil

conservation , Forest, Statistical, Archaeological and meteorological

departments. Anticipated effect of mining activities on the environment

management plan on 1:5000 scale of the area and adjoining area with in 60

mts. From lease boundary is prepared and placed as plate no. A key plan

1:50000 scale assimilating available information in lease boundary and

adjoining area lying within 5km. there of has been prepared and placed as

plate No.2

13.2 Existing land use Pattern: The existing land use has been shown in the enclosed chart. There is some plants in the area. The topography of the area is flat to moderately sloping. There is no forest land, Crop land, grazing land only Private land is there.

13.3 Water quality management:

(i) Surface water :-

There is no any seasonal nalla exist in the lease area. The proposed mining for

next 5 years is not affecting any nala so there will be no impact on the surface water.

There is no surface as well as ground water problem. Only in the monsoon the pits get

some surface water, which can easily be drained off and would be directed along the

topographical slope and will flow in natural drainage. Thus there would not be any

degradation or pollution of surface water due to mining in this area. As there are no

proposals for setting up any process plant, there is no chance of discharge of any

affluence as solid or gas there would not be any danger of pollution of surface water

within or out side the lease area.

(ii) Ground Water: -

The water table of the area is 120 to 130mts below the ground surface and the

quality of water is potable. There is no problem of water . The mining operation will be

on higher levels; therefore there will be no effect on ground water condition due to

mining.

(iii) Quality of Water: -

There is no problem of water in the area. It is in the case of ground water also

there is no any source of exploitation of ground water within the area. Water table of

ground water in this region is around 120 to 130mts below the general ground level,

which is too deep below the lowest pit bottom of proposed working pit.

There will be no impact of mining on quality of water by any of the mining operation as

no water from other source is getting mixed with rainwater.

It is proposed to continue periodical analysis of water sample (pre monsoon and post

monsoon) from working pits for the next five years also.

The mine water does not require any treatment since no toxic substance is reported and

there is no effluent coming out of the mine.

21

13.4 Air Quality Management:

No drilling and blasting will be carried out. The gravel and kankar spread all over

the area is moist in nature so no air pollution due to gravel and kankar removed but at the

time of overburden removal with the help of JCB or small capacity excavator, the air

becomes dusty. The Lessee shall use water spraying on roads and provide dust mask to

operator & mine workers.

13.5 Noise Management:

The proposed mining is opencast method but some amount of noise will be there

due to JCB or small capacity excavator which will be deployed on hire basis for removal

of overburden and movement of truck, which shall be within limits of safety. Earplugs

shall be provided to operator and mineworker.

13.6 Waste Management:

The waste material in this mine consists of Gravel, Murrum Sand, Friable Sand Stone

sandstone removed as overburden from the top of the deposit and rejects (10% of total

production). The table below indicates the expected quantity of overburden, Rejects &

Sub grade: -

grade But we are separate stacking. These are complete part of Over Burden (Waste

material) and calculation have already given in development programmeTotal

162750cum overburden & 39000 Cum reject will be generated in the next five years.

Some part of the overburden & rejects will be utilized in the backfilling of pit . generally

mineral exists so backfilling not possible so overburden & rejects will be stacked

separately over the proposed waste dumps.

13.8 Socio – Economic Impact:

The mining activity will have positive impact due to direct and in direct

employment and development of ancillary industries.

13.9 Affected Persons:

All the laborers will be employed from nearby villages. Except these laborers few

persons of near by area will also get employment as staff and supervisory staff

etc. Some persons will get indirect job from the mining activities.

13.10 Strategy for protection of River Courses, Nala,Water Tank,

villages, Important Monuments :-

(a) Nala & River :- Nala not exist in the area and no river Available in the

lease area..

(b) Water Tank :- There is a water tank near the office in the lease

area(Proposed). The use of water tank only for drinking purpose. Which is not

to be polluted & affected by the mining operation. & other activities.

(c ) Village/House/hutments /Agriculture land :- The nearest village is 5.0km

from the lease area. There are huts in the area. The mining is small scale

mining, therefore there will be no adverse effect of mining on the huts etc.

(d) Important Monuments :- There are no Famous temple . which will not be

affected at all because only manual mining is proposed and it is outside the area.

Total area likely to be used up to the lease period for mining activities and

other activities will be about 2.610 hectares. The mining will be a B Class

mine.

Back filling not possible at present . The reserves of deposit of clay will not

fully deplete during the period of this Progressive Mine Closure Plan.

As per Plan of these plan mine reserve at working place will not exhausted

during Next five years or say the mine-able reserves will not depleted fully

during the period of this mine closure plan .

5.

4.2 Water Quality management :-

No Water reservoir located in the lease area. The dewatering of

monsoon water is proposed through a sump made in the bottom

of the pit to check the silt. The Impact of manual mining not

encounters more than 150 meter away from working towards

maximum side. The proposed deepest working is far above the

general ground water table. .no toxic mineral is present , which

pollute the quality of ground water. No tailing pond is proposed

, which pollute the quality of ground water. The proposed

deepest working is above the ground water table thus quality of

water will not decrease by proposed mining .

The rain water will not accumulate in the working ,

which will be dewatered. by centrifugal pump of 20 H.P. The

dewatering is proposed through a sump made in the bottom of

the pit to check the silt, which may spread in near by area. Thus

no management is required.

Average rainfall of the area is reported about 200mm in

the previous year, so total 1000cum ( 200mm rainfall x

25000sq total area) water is accumulated in the area.

4.3 Air Quality Survey :-

The source of air pollution is vehicular movement

but the transportation will be towards lower side hence

the impact is not very much significant. Loading is also

creating air pollution. Water spray is proposed over the

material before loading and transportation. The

following measures are proposed:

Water sprinklers are proposed on haul road once in a day

specially during dry seasons if dust creates due too

transportation.

Proposed mining is Semimechanized . No processing /grinding

unit is proposed in the applied area: hence the air pollution will

remain in permissible limit.

6.

4.4 Waste management :-

The total waste which will be come across during the

remaining plan period will be around about 162750Cum. Waste

excludes and subgrade. The site for waste dump is proposed as

shown in plate (3&4, 6 ). Any soil; come across is proposed to

scrape and stacked separately to use for plantation during

monsoon.

The dump is proposed to stabilized by returning wall

of rubble stone, which is proposed towards lower altitude side.

A drain with parapet wall is also proposed towards lower

altitude side along the parapet wall to check the silt and rolling

downs during monsoon. No toxic and hazardous element

present in the waste material , which may pollute the nearby

area and ground water.

There are one dump yard proposed in the area, location of these

dump yard has shown in plate(3&4, 6) . This dump yards is

proposed Eastern side in the lease area. Retaining wall will

be constructed around dump yard of dimension 0.50m thick &

3.0m height.

4.5 Top soil management :-

Not Available

4.6 Tailing Dam Management :-

No Tailing dam is proposed hence this paragraph is not

applicable.

4.7 Infrastructure :-

Infrastructure facility such as Building ,first aid center, Rest

shelter, are proposed outside lease area in own land . The

infrastructures, which are proposed will be used for the entire

life of the mine and no decommissioning is proposed at this

stage . Thus no management requires in this progressive mine

closure plan.

7.

4.8 Disposal of mining machineries :-

It is applied fresh mining lease area and the working will be

completely by semi mechanized . The machineries will be on

hire basis .The Excavator, JCB, Tractor Trolley, Diesel

operated water pump will be deployed for short time on hire

basis.. Thus disposal of mine machineries are not come across

during the period of this progressive mine closure plan.

4.9 Safety and Security :-

All the safety measures as per mines act will be provided . For

safety proposed the following proposals are also proposed.:-

Barbed wire fencing is proposed around the proposed

working / excavation to check the inadvertent entry of human

and livestock in the mining area.(excavation).

A watchman is proposed for ward and watch duty for

security purpose. In the period of discontinuance the proposed

watchman is proposed to continue for ward and watch duty.

The watchman will not allowed any general public person and

livestock near the deep cuttings of the proposed workings.

The safe workings are proposed in the supervision of technical

And Qualified supervisory staff. Safety measures will be

provided as per mines act.

4.10 Disaster management and risk assessment :-

The proposed workings are by opencast mining method .

Underground mining is not proposed . Excavator, JCB

machineries are proposed face height is not proposed high . No

tailing dam is proposed . Thus high risk accidents like land

slide, subsidence , flood , inundation , fire, seismic activities

etc. not come across.

In case of accident a well equipped first aid station is

proposed at mine site for giving first aid to injured persons. A

vehicle will always remain at site for any miss happening. The

lessee is capable to meet any type of risk.

8.

4.11 Care and maintenance during temporary discontinuance :-

In case of temporary discontinuance or mine closes temporarily,

than the mining workings will be in the watch of a watchman

.Before re-open of the mine the maintenance will be provided to

all the machineries deployed at mine. The entering the labors

into mine working and faces are proposed to inspect Mines

manager for safety purpose as per mines Act. & DGMS.

5.0 ECONOMIC REPERCUSSION OF CLOSURE OF

MINE AND MANPOWER RETRENCHMENT

5.1 Number of local residents employed :-

As per this mining plan around 15 labors and 3

supervisory staff are proposed to be employed. . All the

labors will be employed from nearby villages . except

these labors few persons of near by area will also get

employment as staff and supervisory staff etc. some

persons will get indirect job from the mining activities

and by transportation. etc.

5.2 Compensation :-

The compensation to the employees with sustenance of

himself and their family members will be provided as per

Labour Law and Mines Act.

5.3 Satellite occupations connected with mining

industry:-

The life of the mine is much more than the period of this

progressive mining plan hence this paragraph is not

applicable at present.

9.

5.4 Continued engagement of employment in the

rehabilitated Status of Mining lease area and any

other remnant activities.

Not applicable in this progressive mine Closure plan.

5.5 Envisaged repercussions on the expectation of the

society around due to closure of mine :-

This paragraph belongs to final closure of the mine and

not related with this progressive mine closure plan.

6.0 TIME SCHEDULING FOR ABANDOMENT :-

No Part of the mine is proposed abandonment during the period of this

progressive mine closure plan. These details will be provided in final

closure plan whenever applicable.

7.0 ABANDONMENT COST :-

Reclamation & Rehabilitation is a continuous process & Progressive

mine Closure is a step towards progressive mine Closure plan. So in

this behalf, there are certain species like khejri, Ker, babool, Neem,

Khakhra which are more suitable to the local soil are proposed to be

planted along lease Boundary & proper care should be done to create

a green belt. Following table shows afforestation programme.
