(iii) Need for the project and its importance to the country and or region:

The lease area has been prospected by various Government Departments. Based on

the deposits available, the area is granted for mining lease for the extraction of Quartz,

Feldspar & Mica. Minerals Quartz, Feldspar & Mica are of industrial importance.

These minerals are essential for electrical, ceramic & glass industries. Feldspar is used

in the manufacture of porcelain, glass, paint & abrasive industries. Quartz is used in

glass, foundry, porcelain, paints, sandpapers and wood filler. The properties of quartz

make it valuable in electronics applications. Quartz is one of several minerals which

are piezoelectric, meaning that when pressure is applied to quartz, a positive electrical

charge is created at one end of the crystal and a negative electrical charge is created at

the other. It is also strongly pyroelectric which means that temperature changes can

cause the development of positive and negative charges within the crystal. While

some other minerals may have these properties, quartz is required because it is

transparent, tough, and of unvarying chemical composition. Mica is Used The highest

level of silica content in it makes it the most preferred mineral to be used in various

industries and also for other personal uses. It is invariably used for fillers, extenders

along with providing smoother uniformity, improving workability and prevents

cracking. This can be used as an insulator in home attics, concrete blocks and also

poured into open top walls. It can also be added to grease to increase its durability and

giving it a better surface. Mica can also be used as a soil conditioner particularly in

potting soil mixes and in gardening plots. Around 15 people will be employed in this

mine. It will create employment (though marginally) for local population of the

villages both directly and indirectly.

(iv) Demand-Supply Gap:

Quartz, Feldspar & Mica demand has been on an upsurge in the region Bhilwara due

to the high rise demand in the building and construction (electrical & paints), ceramic

& glass industries resulting in regional growth. Quartz, Feldspar & Mica is important

mineral and small movements in its demand may produce price fluctuations. The

mining industry has witnessed continuous modernization and adoption of new

technologies in recent years for the excavation of mineral like Quartz, Feldspar &

Mica. The proposed project is encountering huge market demand presently.

(v) Imports vs Indigenous Production:

There will be no import for the existing project. Local villagers will be employed.

There will be Indigenous production in the entire mining activity.

11

(vi) Export Possibility:

Not applicable as proposed mine production is for domestic use.

(vii) Domestic/Export Markets:

The excavated mineral will be used and sold in the local market of Bhilwara, Beawar,

Morvi (Gujrat),Rajsamand, Udaipur and nearby regions. In domestic market, feldspar

is majorly used as a glaze in ceramics, in making dinnerware and bathroom and

building tiles. In ceramics and glass production, feldspar is used as a flux. Quartz is

used in glass foundry, porcelain, paints, sandpapers and wood filler. The export

market is not envisaged for the proposed project.

(viii) Employment Generation (Direct and Indirect) due to the project:

A total of 15 persons will be required as direct and indirect employment for the

proposed mining activity which will be given to local workers.

3. Project Description:

(i) Type of project including interlinked and interdependent projects, if any:

The mining of Quartz, Feldspar & Mica will be carried out by open-cast semi

mechanized method. This will be an independent project. No interlinked project is

proposed.

(ii) Location (map showing general location, specific location, and project boundary

& project site layout) with coordinates:

The lease having area is equal to 5.00 Ha and falls in G.T. Sheet No. 45K/07.

The geographical location with respect to boundary pillars of the mining lease is

shown as under –

Latitude - 25026’59.41” to 25027’11.05” Longitude - 74023’32’51” to- 74023’49’3”

The key map stating the GT sheet number and coordinates of the lease area is attached as Plate No. 1 and the route map showing the connectivity of the lease area is attached as Plate No. 2.

(iii) Details of alternate sites considered and the basis of selecting the proposed site,

particularly the environmental considerations gone into should be highlighted:

This is a mining project which is site specific and cannot be shifted at will. Further,

the project is not situated in an environmentally sensitive area.

(iv) Size or magnitude of operation:

The proposed target production in this mining scheme will be of 1,06,228 TPA

(ROM) per annum over the lease area of 5.00 Ha.

12

(v) Project description with process details (a schematic diagram/flow chart showing

the project layout, components of the project etc. should be given):

The mining in the lease area is proposed to be carried out by semi-mechanized

opencast mining method.

The salient features of proposed mining method are:-

The height of the bench will be maintained at 3.0m.

The width of the bench will be maintained at more than 3m.

Considering the stability of rocks the final slope or say ultimate pit slope is

proposed 40° - 45° from vertical.

Transportation of the mineral from mine to end users will be done by hired

trucks which will be loaded manually.

The excavation of minerals will be done by process of drilling with jack hammer and

blasting by using explosives. After the blasting process, the bulk will be loaded as a

stack at separate placed with the help of excavator. The sorting of the mineral will be

done manually and thereafter would be loaded in tippers/trucks to transport the

mineral produced to industries.

(vi) Raw material required along with estimated quantity, likely source, marketing

area of final product/s, Mode of transport of raw Material and Finished

Products:

No raw materials are required for the production. After the production of minerals

Quartz, Feldspar & Mica, the sorted bulk will be dispatched via hired trucks/tippers to

various nearby units/industries in Bhilwara, Rajsamand, Chittorgarh, Udaipur, Morvi

(Gujrat) and other cities/districts.

(vii) Resource optimization/recycling and reuse envisaged in the project, if any,

should be briefly outlined:

Utmost effort will be made to put the excavated material to proper use. Approximate

97974 MT of mine waste consisting of overburden and mineral waste will be

generated during this mining scheme and will be dumped within the mine lease. The

plantation is proposed over an area of 16500 sq. m. inside the mining lease and rest

will be done outside the lease area. After complete extraction of minerals up to its

economic depth, the excavated pit will be used as a pond/reservoir for water which

will be used by local people for irrigation purpose.

Assumed Survival

Replenishment of Casualties

Total

Plantation has been done within the lease area and extra plantation will be done outside the lease area on private land, in school, etc. Steps will be taken to take care of the plants that survived and additional plantation will be done for those that couldn’t survive. Total of 1833 plants will be planted and proper care will be taken by replenishing the casualties.

(iv) Assessment of Infrastructure Demand (Physical & Social):

Basic facilities already exist and same may be further augmented. The infrastructure

demand in the villages will be evaluate on the basis of necessity and priority.

Strengthening of nearby schools, community centre, and primary health centre will be

supported by the proponent.

(v) Amenities/Facilities:

Facilities exist for the workers like site office, toilets, water huts, first aid, rest shelter, etc. As the workers are from nearby village, hence no housing facilities will be needed.

6. Proposed Infrastructure:

A water reservoir will be constructed / erected at the end of the mine life for irrigation

purpose.

(i) Industrial Area (Processing area):

The area is well connected by road network to the mine from District headquarter etc.

The area is self sufficient to supply the needs of the project. Hence, no infrastructure

is proposed. PP will sell the minerals produced to nearby ball grinding units and from

there the mineral in powder form will be sold to industries in Gujrat state.

(ii) Residential Area (Non Processing Area): Not required. Local personnel will be deployed from the nearby villages.

(iii) Green Belt Development: Refer point no. 5 (iii).

(iv) Social Infrastructure: Socio-economic conditions of area will generally improve as

mining activities create additional employment opportunity for local habitants. Socio-

economic status of local populace also improves as a result of social welfare activities

undertaken by mine owners.

Significant contributions will be made towards education, medical facilities and

cultural aspects. Drinking water facilities has been provided to villagers. Plantation
