Project Code: 226/336/-2005 Clearance Letter No. : J-11015/23/2004-IA.II (M) dated Period of Compliance Report : October, 2015 to March, 2016 SPECIFIC CONDITIONS: SN Conditions Compliance status (i) Top soil should be stacked properly with adequate protection measures earmarked sites and used for reclamation and rehabilitation of the mined out areas. Particulars Proposed in EMP The Top soil generation is very less and it is being simultaneously utilized. The previous Top soil stack is also being simultaneously utilized. Opening balance (MT) Generation Total Used (MT) (MT) (MT) Closing balance (MT) Actual Actual Actual Actual Actual Actual Actual (ii). The OB dumps should be stacked earmarked dump sites only with proper terracing and over all slope of the dump should not exceed 28 o. The OB dump should be scientifically vegetated with suitable native species to prevent erosion and surface run off. Monitoring and management of rehabilitated areas should continue until the vegetation becomes self-sustaining. Compliance status should be submitted to the Ministry of Environment & Forests and its Regional office on yearly basis. OB is properly dumped on non-mineralised zones earmarked in mining scheme & EMP. Dumps are properly terraced. Retaining walls are provided to improve its stability. Water drains are provided. Dump slopes are properly vegetated. As per approved mining scheme, the OB handling :- Period Planned Achieved ,103 MT 61,511 MT ,269 MT 55,175 MT MT MT - (iii) Greenbelt should be raised by planting the native plant species all around the ML area, OB dumps, roads, township etc. in consultation with local DFO / Agriculture The selection of species for afforestation on stabilized dumps is decided jointly in consultant with local forest dept. officials of Pindwara & Sirohi.

Check dams and siltation ponds of appropriate size should be constructed to arrest silt and sediment flow from soil and mineral dumps. The water so collected should be utilized for watering mine area, roads, green belt development etc. The drains should be regularly desilted and maintained properly. Garland drain (size, gradient and length) and sump capacity should be designed keeping 50% safety margin over & above peak sudden rainfall and maximum discharge in the area adjoining the mine site. Sump capacity should also provide adequate retention period to allow proper setting of silt material. Regular monitoring of ground water level and quality should be carried out by establishing a network of existing wells and constructing new piezometers at suitable locations by the project proponent in and around project area in consultation with Regional Director, CGWB. The frequency of monitoring should be four times a year, pre-monsoon (April / May), monsoon (August), post-monsoon (November), and winter (January). Data thus collected should be sent at regular intervals to MoEF and CGWB Western Region, Jaipur. Suitable conservation measures to augment groundwater resources in the area shall be planned and implemented in consultation with Regional Director, CGWB. Mine seepage, if any should also be monitored on a long term basis in consultation with Regional Director, CGWB. seeds, the survival rate in this year 89%. Till date we have constructed 6 nos. Check dams and siltation tanks at water discharge points and Nalla in the close vicinity of the ML to arrest silt of waste and mineral. Check dams are also constructed in surrounding areas for harvesting of water to facilitate in agriculture Adequate garland drains have been provided on the periphery of the mine, waste dumps, top soil stacks, etc. These are connected to the check dams for proper settling of silt material. Pre monsoon cleaning and maintenance of garlands are done regularly. Rainfall is less in this area so quantity of flow of water is less and it gets enough time to settle before going into main stream. Monitoring of ground water level and quality of water of wells are done by M/s. Wolkem Consultancy Services, Udaipur on quarterly interval. We have installed 3 nos. of piezometers near Arakhadra nalla and well no.2. The piezometer no.3 damaged so we have installed at other location. Data are being generated and recorded. We are enclosing water monitoring summarized reports at Annexure-A. Mining is done on above ground. No water is encountered during mining. Mining is done on above ground. No water is encountered during mining. The work is continuing much above the water level. We have installed 3 piezometers for regular monitoring of - 2 -

Consent to operate should be obtained from SPCB before starting mining activities for enhanced capacity. Drills should either be operated with dust extractors or should be equipped with water inject system. Vehicular emission should be kept under control and regularly monitored. Blasting operation should be carried out only during the daytime. Controlled blasting should be practiced. The mitigative measures for control of ground vibrations and to arrest fly rocks and boulders should be implemented Page# 3 ground water level and reports are enclosed at Annexure-A. One scientist from CGWB visited Belka mine and advised us to carry out rain water harvesting vide his letter no. AR / 2 / Consul / CGWB / WR / 05 / 437 dt Accordingly it is being done. However, we have constructed small & medium size check dams in core zone & buffer zone for water recharging. The above water harvesting done by us has resulted in recharge of rain water at low level zone of Arakhadra nalla near Tani village. We have already constructed cemented water channels for irrigation in nearby cultivated fields. In general, water is available during farming period. Farmers use this water through the cemented channels for irrigation. This has enhanced farm produce resulting improvement in their living standards. We have obtained the consent to establish and operate under Air (prevention and control of pollution) Act, 1981 and water (prevention & control of pollution) Act, 1974 vide letter no. Consent letter no. F(Mines)/Sirohi(Pindwara)/32(1)/ / dated for enhanced production of Wollastonite 0.08 MTPA & Calcite 0.12 MTPA. We have wagon drill, crawler drill & jack hammers. Wagon drill & crawler drill are equipped with OEM water mist system. We provide separate water tank attached with pneumatic pump and accessories which are connected to jack hammers for wet drilling. The above arrangements are quite effective. Our vehicles are properly maintained. Our vehicles are sent to authorize agency at Sirohi once in every six month for exhaust emission level checking and found that all are under prescribed limit. Blasting operation is being carrying out during the day time. Control blasting by using delay detonators and proper blast designs are in practice to control ground vibration, rock fly etc.

Specific measures as proposed in the conservation plan for restoration and rehabilitation of panther, sloth and other endangered flora and fauna should be taken. The effectiveness of the conservation measures shall be monitored with inputs obtained from Forest Department and report furnished to this Ministry and its Regional office Page# 4 We had consulted Mr. Raza H. Tehsin, Member, Wild Life Advisory Board, Rajasthan for restoration & rehabilitation of wild life available in this area. As per his advice we have constructed artificial nest with feeding trays, water holes etc. We have constructed some water holes in the adjoining area of ML for drinking water of wild animals. In the old dumps we have spread grass seeds which have grown. The rabbits enjoy the green grass of these dumps. In this area thick foliage plants of variable height are available. We take care to maintain dense green foliage. This is suitable for habitation of langoors and indirectly propagate their population. Water holes for wild animals SN Location Nos. 1.
