INTRODUCTION OF THE PROJECT / BACKGROUND INFORMATION 2.1 IDENTIFICATION OF PROJECT The general elevation of the quarry lease area is 596 meters above MSL. The quarry lease area is a barren non forest land of Madhya Pradesh Govt. and covered with mainly Basalt rock and partially brownish light brick red murum and soil. Topographically the lease area is gentle sloping flat trending north with surrounding topography is undulating. There is no other significant important water regime passing near the quarry area. The seasonal nalas are only active in the monsoon.the drainage pattern is dendritic. Mainly ponds, dug well and tube well cater the domestic as well as agricultural needs of the local people. 2.2 IDENTIFICATION OF PROJECT PROPONENT The Lease has been granted in favor of Shree Ambaram Raghuvansi S/o Madan Lal Raghuvansi. Details of project proponent are given below; Name Shree Ambaram Raghuvansi Address Village-Jamodi Tehsil-Dhar, District-Dhar, State-Madhya Pradesh Pin Code Mobile No id raghuvanshiambaram@gmail.com 2.3 BRIEF INFORMATION ABOUT THE PROJECT Proposed production for 3 Years will be 20,204 X 3=60,612 cum.the main basalt is exposed right from the surface. Manual open cast quarry method is being carried out. In future the quarry operation will be carried out by 3 meter benching height and 45 0 face slope. The quality of basalt stone throughout the quarry lease area is homogenous or having no remarkable variation in grade. The rate of production proposed on the basis of current demand of market. So the production of will be depend mainly on the demand in various construction projects. There is thin top soil or overburden over the main basalt rocks. For safety and smooth quarry operation, quarry will be done on benches. The proposed bench height will be 3.0 meters with less than 45 0 bench slope. 2.4 NEED FOR THE PROJECT AND ITS IMPORTANCE TO THE COUNTRY OR REGION Crushed stone is one of the most accessible natural resources, and is a major basic raw material used in construction, agriculture, and other industries. Despite the low value of its Ambaram Raghuvanshi Page 3

7 basic products, the crushed stone industry is a major contributor to and an indicator of the economic well-being of a nation. The demand for crushed stone is determined mostly by the level of construction activity, and, therefore, the demand for construction materials. The basalt stone will be used mainly for the purpose of house building materials i.e. Flooring / Roofing / Beems / Paving / Doorsill / Boundary Construction and now a days it is widely used for purpose of footpath along the road shoulders, basalt stone is also used in carving. OB (Murum) will be used as road metal, house building materials. 2.5 DEMAND - SUPPLY GAP Considering the increasing development of industries in the State of Madhya Pradesh as well as other nearby States, there is huge demand of basalt stone as a raw material in various types of industries including concrete preparations, road metals and railways. The basalt stone is also used for road filling and foundation. Therefore, partial demand of material used in such industries can be accomplished from this mine. 2.6 IMPORTS VS. INDIGENOUS PRODUCTION Import does not apply in the present case as basaltstone is indigenously available at a number of mines under operation in Madhya Pradesh & other States of India. I. EXPORT POSSIBILITY Export possibility is neither conceivable nor there is any such demand. 2.7 DOMESTIC / EXPORT MARKETS The mineral basalt stone is of good grade and having no problem in selling in the market. It is also sale to nearby industries like construction material suppliers etc. 2.8 EMPLOYMENT GENERATION (DIRECT AND INDIRECT) DUE TO THE PROJECT The mine will provide direct and indirect employment. Directly employment of about 31 persons (Skilled-11 and Non-skilled-20) will be employed for extraction/collection, breaking, sorting, handling and loading of basalt stone and drilling, blasting, sizing, loading in the mining area. All the workers will be employed as contract labourers. Additional employment will be created through transportation. 3.

( 95 % Recovery ) Reject ( 05 % of ROM ) In cubic mts PROJECT DESCRIPTION WITH PROCESS DETAILS Open cast method of mining will be adopted and all working will be done. OPENCAST MINING The whole quarry operation is of semi mechanized open cast. The sizing, loading and hauling is being done with the help of local labours. MINING MACHINERIES For production of X 3=60612 cum and its transport etc. the following machineries are likely to be deployed. Table 3: Details of Machinery S.No. Machinery No. of units 1 Drilling Atlas Copco compressor 2 Jack Hammer 34 m.m. 2 3 Tractor (Hired) 1 1 DRILLING The basalt stone, it is hard in nature but highly jointed and fractured. It does not require regular blasting operation. Blasting require occasionally. The blast holes will be drilled with the help of compressed air operated jack hammer drill. The diameter of the hole will be 34 m. m and the depth will be 2.5 to 3 meters (1.5 meters in 2 lifts). Blasting will be done by license holder blasting contractor. Ambaram Raghuvanshi Page 6

10 BLASTING The blasting parameters will be very simple and requirement of explosives will be limited. Both primary or production blasting and secondary blasting operation will be done by simple square and triangle pattern. TRANSPORT After the manual loading of basalt in trucks, it will be dispatched as per the demand to various destinations. The capacity of tippers will be 17 tonnes. 3.6 RAW MATERIAL REQUIRED ALONG WITH ESTIMATED QUANTITY, LIKELY SOURCE, MARKETING AREA OF FINAL PRODUCT/S, MODE OF TRANSPORT OF RAW MATERIAL AND FINISHED PRODUCT No raw material will be required in the proposed project. 3.7 RESOURCE OPTIMIZATION/ RECYCLING AND REUSE Minerals are depleting asset. Once mined, they cannot be replenished like agriculture, vegetation. Hence, a scientific approach will be adopted in exploitation of mineral with systematic method. The top soil and interburden material will be reused in the refilling the mined out pit. 3.8 AVAILABILITY OF WATER, ITS SOURCE, ENERGY/ POWER REQUIREMENT AND SOURCE A. WATER REQUIREMENT The area has no stream and the ground water is the only source of water but we will use tanker supply. If there will be any requirement of ground water then it will be extracted only after taking approval from CGWA. The tanker water shall be utilized in the form of water sprinkler and the dust zone will be kept protective from environmental hazards. The daily water requirement will be approx. 2.0 KLD for both the mines site for drinking and dust suppression purpose which will meet from Tanker supply. B. POWER Electricity is not required for this project. All the activity will be carried out in day. 3.9 QUANTITY OF WASTE TO BE GENERATED (LIQUID AND SOLID) AND SCHEME FOR THEIR MANAGEMENT A. LIQUID EFFULENT No liquid effulent will be generated at the mine site due to the mineral excavation. Only domestic waste water will be generated from mine office etc. which will be disposed off in septic tank. B. SOLID WASTE The small quantity of soil, overburden/waste and quarry reject in form of small chips generation during the blasting and sizing of large Basalt boulders, can be called as rejects. The thickness of soil or overburden is almost zero. So no question arise of additional waste management in large scale prior to the quarry. Ambaram Raghuvanshi Page 7
