1.0 GEOLOGY AND EXPLORATION. (a) Brief description of the topography, general geology and local geology of the
Mineral deposit including drainage pattern.
Topography & Drainage pattern.
The Mines area falls in ToposheetNo.45E/14. The Ordinary Sand outcrops occur as massive
hillocks. The highest and lowest point of the applied area are70.60 and 68.28 meters
respectively. The area falls on the slope of the hill, with 20 degree average inclination towards
N-S.
The Mines is fully Government land, which is flat terrain.
River bed exists within the area, Rain water flows through river slope towards North to south,
during rainy season.
Vegetation
The area is in Aravalli which falls under arid climate. Consequently, it is characterized
bysandy plain, more of less barren of vegetation expect in rainy season when multitudes of
ephemeral come un and transform the bare land into a green carpet, These ephemeral
complete their life cycle before the advent of summer heat and bulk of the area is once more
transformed into open sandy and stony plane, desolate and barren.
In general the vegetation in arid region is sparse. Plants with xerophytes adaptation are able
to establish themselves. The bulk of vegetation at the study area consists of stunted, thorny or
prickly shrubs or perennial herbs capable of brought resistance, Distanly scattered trees of
stunted growth are found in this part of the country. Such vegetation is known as desert scrub.
The dominant tree species are Neem, Baval, Sagvan, Pipal, Mango, Banyan tree etc.
Climate conditions
The climate is moderate and temperature ranges from 35-370C during summer to about 12
0C
during winter. The average annual rainfall is 250 to 350 mm which received during monsoon
season from June to September. Predominant wind direction is NE-SW. Generally wind
blows with a velocity of 10-12 Km/hr in all seasons. Relative humidity varies from 37%.
(b) Brief description of Regional Geology with reference to location of lease/applied
area. Regional Geology:
The Aravalli District deriving its name from the river Sabarmati covers an area of
7390 Km2. The district has 13 talukas namely Khedbrahma, Vijaynagar, BayadBhiloda,
Malpur, Meghraj, Vadali, Talod, Dhansura and Bayad with a population of 1760 086
Physiographically, the district can be divided into two zones viz the hilly regions and the
plains. The hill ranges cover the northern topography are confined towards west and
southwest Sabarmati, the major river of the district, flows from north to south along the
western border of the district. The area is mainly drained by the southwesterly flowing rivers
namely the Hathmati the Khari the Meshwa the Majham and the Vatrak. The area is well
connected by State and national highways Ahmedabad-Bayad-Khedbrahmametregauge
railway line passes through the area. The district receives 69 cm of annual rainfall.

The rocks of the Aravalli Super group occupy mainly the eastern part of the district
and are represented by the Goran and the Samlaji Formations of the Jharol Group and Kadana
Formation of the Lunavada Group. These comprise highly foledphyllite chlorite-micaschist
quartzite garnetiferous mica schist. calc amphibolite schist feldspathic mica schist and
metasubgraywacke. At places serpentinite and talc-carbonate rocks of the Rakhabdev
ultramafic suite are seen. The northern part of the district is mainly occupied by the rocks
belonging to the KewaraandAntalia Formation of the Gogunda Group and Todgarh
Formation of the Kumbhalgarh Group of Delhi Super Group. They Comprise quartzite,
biotite schist, calc-biotite schist, phyllite, calc-gneiss, calc schist, marble and
biotitegnesis/mighmatite. The rocks belonging to the Aravalli and Delhi Super Groups are
strongly deformed under atlest three phases of deformation. The regional trend of beds and
foliations vary from NNE-SSW to NE-SE with steep dips on either sideEpidiorite,
hornblende schist, amphibolites, pyroxene granultre and gabbro of the phuladophiolite Suite
are found north of Songarh. The area in the north is intruded by the Sendra-Ambaji Granite

No need of future program of exploration, because part of the area has been explored
up to a depth of 6m. Even though, when we will go to depth side we can find out the
quality and quantity of the Ordinary Sand position
(j) Reserves and Resources as per UNFC with respect to the threshold value notified
by IBM may be furnished in a tabular from as given below:
The quality of Ordinary Sand position is improved in the deep portion. So we calculate
the reserve of Ordinary Sand depends upon the position which may vary from level to
level & lateral wise. The occurrence of uniforms & massive reserves.As per Geological
Plan with section A’-A’’, B’-B’’ & C’-C’’.
Proved Reserves (111)
The proved reserves can be estimated taking 1m interval continuity around the pits i.e.
about 01-00-00sqm. & the depth is considered up to the 3m i.e. 3 m below the actual
depth of the because by drilling. It is proved that Ordinary Sand is continuing in depth
& quality is also improved.

(c) Brief description giving salient features of the proposed method of working
indicating category of Mines.
It is proposed to adopt the semi-mechanized open cast method of mining by using
Excavator. As stated earlier the Ordinary Sand mining is entirely different from
conventional type of mining.
The Mining suggested is semi mechanized at present and subsequently based on
market it is planned to improvement to mechanized operations.
(d) Brief description of the layout of Mines working, pit road layout, the layout of
faces and sites for disposal of O/B, waste along with ground preparation prior to
disposal of waste, reject etc. A reference to the plans and sections may be given.
UPL or ultimate size of the pit is to be shown for identification of the suitable
dumping site.
Area is devoid of over burden so no Development works will be proposed. Bench
height will be 5m and targeted production will be 130000 tones per five year (with
Mineral reject) Details of year wise bench wise production is given in the tables

Exploration:
Massive deposit of Ordinary Sand occurs is in the form of a lose, having exposure of all
sides up to bottom of River bed. The huge quantity of material to sustain production more
than 4 years is visible under proved category. Therefore further exploration is not
required.
Mines development:
As such very nominal development work for proposed road making work will be required
to start production from this area. The proposed mining has been selected along strike
direction covering maximum width up to ultimate depth. Therefore, the development &
production plan have been described.
Optimum Exploitation and utilization of Mineral:
Ordinary SandMineral in the lease area has been excavated up to 7.5 m statutory barrier
all along the lease boundary with the restriction of mining width, under the present
scenario mining cannot proceed below 68.28mRL.
� Lessee should apply to DGMS for mining in 7.5 barrier.
� In the present pit design final pit slope is considered at 450. In the fifth year of mining the
present reserves are likely to exhaust, hence company can approach DGMS for steeper
final slope of the pit and recover the blocked Mineral to possible maximum limit.
Disposal of Waste
0% waste of ROM from Ordinary Sand will be generated during mining. Total 130000
tone&0 swelled waste will be generated. Initially during Mining Plan (1st to 5
th year)
waste will be dumped on ground level as shown in plate no.3.
During the proposed five years period year wise barbed wire fencing will be done around
the plantation area wire fencing will prevent any inadvertent entry.

Environmental Aspects:
Due to mining, envisaged land degradation will be in the form of open pit and area
covered will be about 0.7104 hectares out of 1.0000 hectares. By the end of life of
Mines0.2896ha.will be developed as green belt along the statutory barrier.
Machinery in use at the Mines will generate dust and noise and all preventive measures as
per consent to operate will be strictly implemented. Negative impact on land degradation
will be reduced by way of green belt along the lease boundary. Air pollution will be
controlled by way of providing fully automatic drilling machine from where continuous
supply of water during drilling flows down to suppress any dust generated during drilling.
Sprinkling of water over haul roads, loading and unloading points will be provided. Dust
masks will be provided to workers engaged in drilling and working in dusty environment.
No Mineral beneficiation is proposed hence, no water treatment is required. However any
16
water flowing from the Mines to outside will be circulated through the sumps and settlers,
so arrest any silt. Sumps and settlers will be periodically cleaned.
Regular Air, water and noise quality will be monitored as per the guide lines from SPCB.
� SPM level of 500 ug/m3in ambient air will be achieved. Standard of 600 ug/m
3 will be
applicable within 3-10 m of any equipment.
� Day time noise level shall be kept below 75d B A (Leq) and night time at 70 dB A
(Leq)
Other conditions as per consent operate will be followed
Plantation :
Plantation will be carried out along the lease boundary over 7.5 m statutory barrier
(0.2896 hectares) by the end of mining plan period.

Expected rate of Survival : Expected rate of survival is anticipated at 80 %
Proper care maintenance will be done as proposed in the chapter on environment
management in the mining plan.
Post Mining land use:
The applied lease area at the end of mining when Mineral will be fully exhausted, will be
backfilled by waste from ROM generated during mining. However at the end of lease
period total plantation area will be 0.2896hectares.This will enhance the aesthetic beauty
of the area. This work should be taken up in consultation with Horticulturist and
landscape designers.
Reclamation &Rehabilitation:
At the end of mining plan period, about 1.0000 hectares area will be cover under mining.
Ordinary SandMineral will continue in strike for further mining. Thus no reclamation is
proposed at this plan period. The plantation will be done along lease boundary in next
five years. At the end of mining plan period total 0.2896 hectares area will be planted.

(ii) Quality of air
The entire area is very calm and quiet and free form air pollution. The quality of air
level appears to be within permissible limits (No Survey has been conducted for the
preparation of mining plan of small area). The source of pollution as regard air area
the surrounding small Mines which contribute mainly for the pollution.
24
(iii) Ambient noise level
The entire area is very calm and quiet and free from noise pollution. The quality of
ambient noise level appears to be within permissible limit (no survey has been
conducted for the preparation of mining plan of small area) the source of pollution as
regard noise area the surrounding small Mines which contribute mainly for the
pollution.
(iv) Flora and fauna
The area lies in Aravalli, which falls under arid climate. Consequently, it is
characterized by sandy plain, more of less barren of vegetation except in rainy season
when multitudes of ephemeral come up and transform the bare land into a green
carpet. These ephemeral complete their life cycle before the advent of summer heat
and bulk of the area is once more transformed into open sandy and stony plane,
desolate and barren.
In general the vegetation in arid region is sparse. Plants with xerophytes adaptation
are able to establish themselves. The bulk of vegetation at the study area consists of
stunted, Thorny of prickly shrubs of perennial herbs capable of drought resistance.
Distantly scattered trees of stunted growth are found in this part of the country. Such
vegetation is known as desert scrub. The dominant tree species are neem, Baval,
Sagvan, Pipal, Mango, Banyan tree etc.
The terrestrial fauna of the region mainly comprises of domestic animals and burrow
dwellers. During the study period no endangered of rare species was found within the
study area.
(v) Climatic conditions
The climate is moderate and temperature ranges from 35-370C during summer to
about 120C during winter. The average annual rainfall is 250 to 350 mm which
received during monsoon season from June to September. Predominant wind direction
is NE-SW. Generally wind blows with a velocity of 10-12 Km/hr in all seasons.
Relative humidity varies from 37%.
(vi) Human settlements
There is no village within the lease area. Lease area is situated in the revenue
boundary of Ambliyara,Ambliyara village is situated in north direction of the lease
area.
(vii) Public buildings, places of worship and monuments
Area is free from any public building and monuments. The lease area is free from sink
hole having any connection to any cave system and perennial river is far way from the
lease area as such not going to effect any way.
(viii) Weather any Sanctuary is located in the vicinity of lease hold?
No any Sanctuary is located in the vicinity of lease hold area.
8.2 Impact Assessment:
The Mining operation will have some impact on the existing environment, both
adverse and beneficial. Considering the nature and scale of operation, on the other
hand impact on socio-economic will be largely beneficial. The possible impacts are
enumerated below:
25
(i) Land Environment
At the end of five years, damage to the landscape in the form of pit & road etc., about
0.7104 hectares will be pit. The area influence of mining at the end of 5th
year & end
of the Mines life is given below:

(ii) Air Quality
Air quality gets affected due to mining, blasting and movement of earth moving
equipment etc.However, the impacts area localized and is not continuous. Overall
effect for mining of Ordinary Sand from this 1.0000hect. Area is insignificant. To
reduce such impacts measures will be adopted from the inception by spraying water
all along the haul road. Further a forestation all along the lease boundary and haul
road will arrest a major quantity of dust. In blasting use of delay/non electric system
will result reduction of vibration as well as dust.
(iii) Water Quality
The mining excavation of which will never touch the ground water table. Hence no
question of ground water pollution arises.
(iv) Noise levels
Operation of equipment will emit noise. To have control on noise level within 80 db
adherence to strict schedule maintenance, monitoring of noise will be carried out.
Blasting-Noise & Vibration during blasting is momentary but needs proper planning
to reduce the same.
(v) Water regime
Unaffected
(vii) Acid Mines drainage
This is not applicable to the Ordinary Sand area.
26
(vii) Surface subsidence
This is not applicable to the Ordinary Sand area.
(viii) Socio-economic environment
Mining in this lease area will gave more job opportunity to the local people
thus,Ordinary Sand mining will not create any adverse effect to the local people.
Ordinary Sand mining will not generate hazardous dust, which may cause health
problem to Mines workers. The nearest human settled village is Ambliyara which is
nearby from lease area. Thus mining will not have any impact on the village human
settlement.
(ix) Historical monuments etc.
No Historical monument lies within the core and 5 Km. buffer zone.
8.3 Progressive reclamation plan:
8.3.1 Mine out land
Description of the proposals to be implemented for reclamation and rehabilitation of
Mine out land including the manner in which the actual site of the pit will be restored
for future use, supported with yearly plans and section depicting yearly progress in the
activities for land restoration/reclamation/rehabilitation, a forestation etc., called
“Reclamation plan”
Land use pattern at present and at the end of plan period is given above:
Reclamation & Rehabilitation
At the end of mining plan period, about 0.7104 hectares area will be cover under
mining up to depth 334.5mRL. Ordinary SandMineral will continue is strike for
further mining after approved applet Authority. Thus no reclamation is proposed at
this exiting mining area. The plantation will be done along lease boundary in next five
year. At the end of mining plan period total 0.2896hectares area will be planted.
Plantation:
Plantation will be carried out along the lease boundary over 7.5 m statutory barrier
(0.2896 hectares) by the end of plan period.
Year wise plantation program for the mining plan period is given below:
Year No.of plants Area (in Hect.,) Survival Rate
2016-17 10 0.05792 50%
2017-18 10 0.05792 50%

2019-20 10 0.05792 50%
2020-21 10 0.05792 50%
Total 0.2896
Expected rate of survival :Expected rate of survival is anticipated at 80%
Proper care maintenance will be done as proposed in the chapter on Environment
management in the mining plan.
27
8.3.2 Top soil Management:
No top soil generated whatever top soil generated has been used for plantation.
8.3.3 Tailings Dam Management:
There is no tailing generation in the process of mining. Hence no tailing dam
management.
8.3.4 Acid Mines drainage, if any and its mitigative measures.
There is no acid drainage in this Mines of Ordinary Sand area, so no mitigative
measures are proposed.
8.3.5 Surface subsidence mitigation measures through backfilling of Mines voids or by
any other means and its monitoring mechanism
