4.3 Geology

Regional Geology

The Himalayan mountain system roughly surrounds the northern India. The mountain ranges extend

for over 2400 km length from west to east. Geology of the Himalayas is extremely complex as it

represents a site of continental collision. The collision of the Indian Plate and the Eurasian Plate led

to joining of the two continents along a suture zone represented by a lineament. Two rivers -- Indus in

the west and Tsangpo in the east flow along this lineament which is also known as Indus suture zone.

We will study the geology of the terrain between the Indus suture zone in the north and the Indo-

Gangetic alluvial plains in the south.

Tectonically the Himalayas can be divided into four roughly parallel zones.

From north to south the zones are:

APPLICANT: SMT ASHALATA DEVI PROP. M/S RAJ STONE CRUSHER PRE- FEASIBILITY REPORT

Tethyan Himalayas

Central Crystalline Zone

Lesser Himalayas

Outer Himalayas

The Central Crystalline Zone is made of Precambrian basement rocks mixed with granitic intrusions

of Tertiary age. This zone has the highest mountain ranges of the Himalayas. This zone separates the

northern Tethyan Himalayas from the southern Lesser Himalayas. These two zones contain sedimentary

rocks of Palaeozoic-Mesozoic ages deposited over Precambrian basement.

Whereas the Tethyan Himalayas consists of a fairly continuous succession rich in fossils, the Lesser

Himalayas host rocks with scanty fossil records and with gaps in between. The Outer Himalayas forms a

separate geological unit consisting of Quaternary sedimentary rocks originating from the rising

Himalayas.

Each of these zones displays a highly complex geology disturbed by the Himalayan Mountain

building processes. The geology of the Lesser Himalayas is particularly difficult to decipher because it

contains several thrust sheets or nappes and is generally devoid of fossils.

GEOLOGICALLY Himachal Pradesh can be broadly divided into two major geo-tectonic zones viz.

the Lesser Himalayan tectogen in the south and the Tethys Himalayan Tectogen in the north. These

two tectonic zones are juxtaposed with each other along a major tectonic break collectively

designated as Main Central Thrust in the sense defined by Srikantia (1988). Mandi District lying

within the Lesser Himalaya and the Shiwalik Foothill comprises rocks ranging in age from

Proterozoic to Quaternary. The oldest rocks are of undifferentiated Proterozoic age, comprising

carbonaceous phyllite, schist, gneiss, quartzite and marble. The Ghoghar Dhar (Undifferentiated

Proterozoic age) occurs as an intrusive body within the Chail Group of rock. This granite body is well

foliated and composed of gneisses, granite with minor aplite and basic veinlets. The Sundernagar

Group of Rocks of Meso- Proterozoic age is represented by quartzite with basic flows. The Shali

Group of Rocks (Meso- Proterozoic) Comprising limestone, dolomite, (at places stromatolites) slate,

& quartzite. The Subathu consists mainly, of olive green shales and grey shales. At the top, a band of

white quartzite is exposed; this band of white quartzite has been taken as the marker, defining the top

of the Subathu sequence. The thick sequence of brackish and fresh water sediments immediately

succeeding the fossiliferous marine Subathu are classified as Dharamshala Formation. The

Dharamshala Formation are widely exposed in the Mandi parautochthon, further west in the

autochthon, these rocks are exposed, in the core of the Sarkaghat anticline. The Shiwalik Group of

The catchment on left bank is controlled by Barsar Thrust and on right bank by major fault.

4.4 Existing Land Use Pattern and Shortest Distances from Forests, Water Bodies, Eco-

Sensitive Areas, Etc.

The mining lease area is situated on a hill slope. The land, in which the mining lease lies, is at present

an un-cultivable land. The lease area consists of few shrubs and weeds. There is no eco-sensitive area

within 15 km radius of mine lease area.

4.5 Existing Infrastructure

The site has no existing infrastructure, except for connecting road for transportation.

4.6 Geomorphology & Soils

(Central Ground Water Board, Hamirpur, Ministry of Water Resources, District Book 2013)

The terrain of the district is mostly hilly and undulating. The surface elevation ranges from 400 m to

600 m amsl along the Beas river valley and in lower reaches of Kunah Khad in the northern part of

the district. The elevation is more than 900 m above msl in the eastern part of the district. The

Page 12: PRE -FEASIBILITY REPORTenvironmentclearance.nic.in/.../18052017UQJZ0Q5APre-FeasibilityRe… · For reference Certificate from DFO attached with the report. 1.1 Salient Features of

MINOR MINERAL MINING PROJECT FOR SAND, STONE AND BAJRI

APPLICANT: SMT ASHALATA DEVI PROP. M/S RAJ STONE CRUSHER PRE- FEASIBILITY REPORT

altitudinal variation in-general, ranges between 600 m to 900 m above msl. Sola Singhi hill ranges

forms the western boundary of the district, with a maximum elevation of 1145 m above msl. Deep

gulleys and gorges are formed in the north-eastern part of the district. The river / khad valleys are

broad in the southern part of the district, mainly along the Sukar and Sir Khad in Bhorang-Jahu-

Dhankar areas. In the drainage basin of Beas River, the general ground slope is towards north, while

in the Sutlej River this slope is towards south.

Hamirpur district forms a part of drainage system of the Beas River in the northern and western parts,

whereas in the eastern and southern parts Sutlej River system drains the areas . The drainage pattern

is dendritic to sub dendritic. Drainage density is coarse to medium.

The Beas River: The entire drainage of the Beas River above Pandoh (Mandi) has been diverted to

Govind Sagar (The Sutlej River).The river receives only regulated flows downstream of Pandoh and

the flows contributed by the Uhl River, Neogal Khad and Binwa Khad along with the other minor

seasonal rivers/Khads directly join the river Beas. Other important tributaries of Beas are Baker,

Salagi, Nauli, Maili and Jangled Khads. In Hamirpur district’s, Kunah and Man khads are the major

streams. These along with other major khads join the Beas River.

Kunah Khad: Kunah is the most important tributary of the Beas River in the district. . Major

tributaries of this khad are Sukar, Jhaniari, Gasota, Hathali and Sukrala Khads. These khads are

perennial and have floods during rainy season.

Man Khad: Man Khad is another perennial tributary of Beas River which originates near Deotsidh

and flows towards NNW, to join Beas River to the west of Nadaun. Important tributaries of this khad

are Haretta, Bambloo and Matwara Khads.

Sukkar Khad: Sukkar and Sir Khads are the main khads joining the Sutlej River and Govind Sagar.

These occupy the southernmost part of the district and flow towards south to directly fall into the

Govind Sagar. These are ephemeral in the upper parts and become perennial in the lower parts.

Sir Khad: Sir Khad is another important khad, which is draining the eastern most part and flows

towards east. This khad is ephemeral in upper catchment area and becomes perennial in lower parts.

4.7 Climatic Data from Secondary Sources

Climate in various parts of the district, depend primarily much on the elevation, which varies from

less than 200 meters to more than 1000 meters above mean sea level. The climate can broadly be

divided into three broad seasons viz. winters from October to March, summer season from April to

5 Planning Brief

5.1 Planning Concept

The project falls under the category of ‘Mining Industry’. The raw material that is stones, bajri and

sand are available in the area granted for mining purposes under the ‘Himachal Pradesh Minor

Minerals (Concession) and Prevention of Illegal Mining and Storage) Rules 2015’. The required

unskilled and semiskilled workers are locally available. For transportation of minerals/material tractor

trolleys/ tipper trucks will be deployed. These are readily available from the adjoining villages on

hire.

5.2 Population Projection

The requirement of unskilled semi-skilled workers for the mining and transportation of minerals to

market and crushing site will be limited to about 25. The workers directly engaged for mining activity

will be deployed for collection of minerals and loading it into tractor trolleys/tipper trucks. About

four tractor trolleys/tipper trucks will be engaged daily as per demand for transporting material from

the mining area to crushing unit. It is pertinent to mention that percentage of marginal workers in the

area is 25 % and non-workers are 41 % percent as per 2011 census. Thus the project gives fruitful

employment to local workers and help in stemming or at least reducing the migration of such workers

to urban centre from the adjoining villages.

APPLICANT: SMT ASHALATA DEVI PROP. M/S RAJ STONE CRUSHER PRE- FEASIBILITY REPORT

5.3 Land Use Planning (Break Up Along With Green Belt, Etc.)

Within the lease area, open cast semi mechanised method as and when required. Mining will be

carried out by bench formation from top to bottom shall be followed. At the conceptual stage of mine

or mine closure stage complete excavated area will be reclaimed and plantation will be carried out.

5.4 Assessment of Infrastructure Demand (Physical & Social)

Considering 300 working days in a year about 95 metric tons of minerals will be moved daily

depending upon crusher demand. The transportation of this material will not put any load on the

existing road or other local infrastructure as the crusher is in the adjoining land.

5.5 Amenities/Facilities

The following facilities/amenities will be extended by the mine management:

In view of the fact that the project is a small mine it will not need much specialized facilities in the

mining area. However, following site services will be provided near the mine but outside the flood

zone:

Mine Office with. First aid station and Store for mining equipment.

Rest Shelter with Urinal

9.0 ANALYSIS OF PROPOSAL (FINAL RECOMMENDATIONS)

The Project will bring economical benefits to the state through royalty for minerals. Achieving a huge

infrastructure as being envisaged by Government of India particularly in road and housing sector

requires basic building materials. Stone and Bajri are the primary building material required for the

construction purpose. The mining activities as proposed are the backbone of all construction and

infrastructure projects as the raw material for construction is available only from such mining. Sand

and Bajri extracted are in high demand at the local market for real estate industry.

This project operation will provide livelihood to the poorest section of the society/economically

backward population and tribals in the area. It provides employment to the people residing in vicinity

directly or indirectly. The mine management will also help nearby villages by providing schools,

conducting medical and social awareness camps, helping in formation of self help groups, etc. Thus

the project will defiantly helpful for the socio-economic improvement of the area and will prove

beneficial to the area.
