PART - A
GEOIOGY ANO B(PTORATION:
Briefly describe the topqruphy, druinage Ponem, vegetation, climote, minloll doto ofthe orco opplied/mining leose orea,
Topography: The lease area is an irregular polygon in shape and bounded by 18
intermediate and corner pillars of the boundary. The latitude and longitude of each
pillar is recorded and marked on the plan. The allotted lease area is 9.21Ha.
At present, general elevation within the lease area varies from around 48 mRL to
around 44 mRL showing a relief of about 4 m. There is no prominent stream or
nalla within the area. There is occasional flow of water during the rainy season, in
the slopes.
There is one pit within lease cover 8.35 ha area. Depth of pit is 1m to 6'4m in mineral
limestone- Plt approach roads are exist outside the lease area for plying of trucks and
mining machinery. ln this few mineral dump etc are situated within excavated area ofpit.
The limestone bearing area is fully covered by 13 nos. core bore holes marked NLA-l
to NLA 13 at about 100 m apart.
The list of existing pit inside the lease area:

Drainage pattem: The area is having Sentle slope from north east to South west. The
surface run-off water follows the natural slope, there is no permanent Nallah within
lease. (Plate no 2A).
Beyond the foothills the plain has a gentle & southwesterly slope towards the sea'
Many nallas, streams and rivulets oriSinate from the western slopes and the foothill
region of the Barda hill range, which forms a sort of watershed. ln and around the
present area of investigation these watercourses are ephemeral with occasional flow
of water durang the rainy season- These west flowing water courses form the prevailing
rudimentary drainage pattern in the area ultimately joining the sea through narrow
creeks and at times merBing with low lying muddy and marshy areas near the coast'
Vegetation: The area is scanty of vegetation with scattered babul and thor bushes' No
other prominent trees exist.
The common tree found in the plain area Gogad, Bawal, Khair, Rayan, Ber, Limdo, Neem,
Awala, etc.
Climate: The climate of the area is dry, generally hot and humid. The maximum and
minimum temperature in the area ranges from 42oc to 120c. The relative humidity

The rocks occur in beds which show a gentle seaward dip of 5'to 14".
Description of the rocks units within the lease area:
Limestone: The limestone being the main subject of the study, its chemical and quality
aspects will be discussed in a separate later chapter. The greater part f the limestone
has already been mined. The maximum thickness of the remaining limestone horizon is
about 15 meters along parts of the peripheral area outside the worked out pits. ln the
worked out area the thickness varies from two to nearly ten meters at places. Bared on
the quality variation, three separate bands may be identified -an upper inferior grade
band, a middle chemical grade band and another lower inferior grade band. However,
their distribution does not follow any regularity and thin lenses of inferior grade occur
within the chemical grade band and vice versa.
GaiB€ds:Thesearerepresentedbythinlayerofbrownishclayunderlyingthelimestone and resting over the basement granophyre. This consists of predominantly
brown coloured clay and calcareous clay.
Granophvre: Unconformably lying below the limestone is the basement Granophyre,
which is a late stage differentiate derived from the basaltic magma of the Deccan Trapo
Effusives- This is not exposed an).where within the lease area but has been encountered

Drilling : Diamond core drilling was undertaken with a view to proving the depth
continuation of the limestone formation still remaining in parts of the area after earlier
mining for ascertainin8 the quality and its variation, if any. Based on the 100 meter squaregrid. Borehole location were chosen primarily on the grid intersection pints and at times
deviating from it based on configuration of the lease area and other local conditions.
Altogether 13 boreholes were drilled ranging in-depth from 3.70m to 16.35m and totaling toa drilling meterage of 108.95. All the boreholes were drilled vertically in NX size occasionally
resorting to dry drilling for maximizing core recovery in highly fractured, weathered and
clayey limestone. The details of drilling statistics are presented in Annexu re No. 15-
Core Recovery: For effecting better core recovery in the soft, porous and frible Miliolitelimestone, occasional dry drilling was resorted to besides using double tube NXM corebarrels for wet drilling. The bore hole wise and formation wise core recovery detairs arepresented in Annexure No. 15. The core recovery in the coreable limestone formation wasaround 84o/o. The highly fractured, fragmented, r reathered and clayey limestone recorded acore recovery percentage of around 39.

and cement grade limestone is being only produced at the mine
use only as the lessee have chemical and a cement plan in thestate Gujarat. The entire mineral produced irrespective of size is
utilized very smartly. This is all for conservation of valuable mineral.
iii) Ultimate Ph timit in the Mining AreaThe ultimate pit limit has been marked on the basis of the extent of mineralization ofchemical grade and cement grade limestone observed within the area of MLLaterally the boundary barrier within the lease area forms the limit of mining while atdepth the ultimate pit bottom shall be restricted upto 30 m mRL.
iv) Tonnage FactorAn overall tonnage factor of 2.25 has been considered for limestone for this area.
(Annexure- 148)vi) RecoveryBased on past experience, the recovery of limestone is considered 90% of total in-
situ rocks.
Resources/ Resewes CategoriesThe resources and reserves of the area have been categorized under differentgeological axis as per the followings: -1. lnferred resources (G3 Axis): no mineral is stands within this category.2. lndicated resources (G2 Axis): No mineral is found within this category also.3. Measured resources (G1 Axis): The entire mineral resources/ reserves are fallsunder this category as discussed above. This is estimated by details proving bysinkin8 core BH at an average 10O meters interval, and at some places even atcloser intervals by the lessee.ln this case, the resources which are falling within the command length of lOOm oneither sides of the BH and working pits and upto depth of 1 to 15m has been takenunder this category of resources. The entire area of the mining lease covered underthis category of resources measured.
Basis for awardint UNFC code1) AII the reserves falling within G1 axis are placed in the mineable proved i.e. E1,
F1 & G1 category (111) based on the availability of mineral in the area and asthe reserves are falling in the govt. wasteland and the land is under possessionof the lessee.
This reserve is devoid of mineral resources blocked due to safety boundarybarrier, safety benches, and narrow spaces etc.
2) No resources/ reserves are measured under G2 axis.3) The resources under G1 axis which cannot be mined at present due to makingsafety benches, along statutory boundary barrier etc. are placed under FeasibilityMineral Resources and are assigned UNFC code 211.4) No resources falls under the inferred G3 axis

f) @nceptual Mine planning upto the end of lease pedod taking into consideration thepresent available reserves and res{rurces describing the excavation, recovery of ROM,
Disposal of waste, backfilling of voids, rcclamation and rehabilitation showing on a
plan with few relevant sections.
The lease area is presently having mineable reserve of app.0.66244 million MT of both
combining chemical and cement grade limestone. The lease area is fully explored and
orebody is well established with UNFC-111 category. However, to know the continuity
of mineralization, 6 no. of DTH of holes of4m depth at 20om interval Srid are proposed .
The same has been marked on the Geological Plan.
The yearly production target of limestone is kept at 100000 MTPA to fulfil the TCL'S
current requirement. At this production rate the life of mine will be around 6.6 years.
A conceptual plan showing pit position at the end of the lease period (upto 16'1'2033)

pits for safety purpose. The plantation is proposed in the non-
along with green belt in SBZ area. The water reservoir created at
mining life will help the nearby villagers to fulfil the water requirement
Recovery of ROM: To increase the Recovery of ROM, the sorting of ROM will be
done manually outside the lease area on the registered plots- This will improve themaximum use of ROM.
The recovery will be kept 100% to ensure the proper mineral conservation.
Disposal of Waste: The area is devoid of OB, thus no waste will be generated. The
ROM will be transported to the nearby TCL'5 crushing unit for further processing
thus no location of storage of mineral is proposed with in the lease area.
TCL will use under-size chemical/Cement grade limestone and inferior grade
limestone for its cement manufacturing unit.Bacmlling of Void: As there is no OB lying inside the lease area, so there will be no
backfilling material available to backfill the void, thus the void will be convertedinto the water-reservoir for filling up the rain water.
Reclamation and Rehabilitation: No any proposal for reclamation of pits or worksout area is made in this review of mining plan- At the end of mining worked outarea will be leveled and used as water reservoir.At the conceptual plan, green belt of suitable width should be developed all alongthe mining lease boundary. The row of plants facing mine should be of smallerspecies and those facing outside should be of taller species. The post plantationcare is proposed to maintain the growth of plantation. Plantatlon will reduce theland erosion possibility in the surrounding area.
Wire fencing will be done around the green belt.Due to unavailability of OB material to back-fill the void, the void will be left torecharged by the rain water. The proposed water reservoir, will help to recharge theground water table in the surrounding area. The wire-fencing is proposed aroundthe water-reservoir for safety purpose.

rain fall is only about 500 mm to 70omm.
Further it is observed that due to porous nature of the exposed formation the rain
water gets percolated quickly by ground seepage. The rain water dries up quickly
whenever there is substantial rain fall.
During the past years no significant accumulation of water has been observed in
the small working pits of earlier quarrying operation of the area'
The mine is situated at higher altitude from surrounding level so during rainy
season water drain out from nearby areas into nalah' Within lease area no mine out

Chemical grade to Soda Ash Plant. Normally in such cases the mine site
services are an integral part of the plant. However in view of large
distance between the mine & the plant, site services will be provided at the
Mine or at a centralized place for the group of mine as these are all small &
scattered units. So this mine will be completely controlled from central mines
office at Adityana as common facilities to a group of mines'
As regards to other specific mine site service requirements, the position is as
follows:
RestShefter:Restshelteralongwithfirst-aidstationcomplyingwithalltheprovisions of Mines Rules will be constructed in the lease area itself'
Water Supply: There is a deep tube well near mines office from which water will be
supplied for drinking and toilet purpose as well as for dust suppression measures'
Power Supply: The mine will work in one shift (i.e. general shift) only, so no li8hting
arrangement will be required. At present there is no electric supply'
Workshop & stores: These are situated with our central mines office at Adityana
and will be serving to the machineries deployed at this mine'
All other facility like regular medical check-ups and other benefits to be provided to
the mine workers regarding their health as per Mines Act 1952
b) Employment potential :
Employment of managerial and supervisory staff has been done as per the statutory
requirement;HiehlY Skilled:(1 Full Time Mining Engineer + 1 Geologist) As per Rule 55 of MCDR'2017

ll. Water Resime. oualitv of air and ambient noise level. flora. climatic conditions
a. Water RedmeThere are no prominent watercourses or nallahs in the lease area. During rainy season
the surface run-off flows in NW to SE direction. The drainage pattern will not get
disturbed due to mining activity. Hence no impact is anticipated.
h. oualiw of Water. Air and Ambient Noise Level
The entire lease area is very calm and quiet and free for air noise and water pollution.
However in the vicinity of the lease area in the South west side, another company's
cement plant situated.
The quality of air, water & ambient noise level inside appeaB to be within permissible
limits. The source of pollution as regard air, noise area the surrounding this mine
which contribute mainly for the pollution Refer Water, Air, Noise Analysis report
attached as Annexure No. 12Ar 128, 12C.
c. Flora:
The lease area is a waste land of Adityana village. Part of area shows high relief and
found covered with exposed limestone. The area is scanty of vegetation with scattered
babul and thor bushes. No other prominent trees except thorny are there in the lease
area.
d. dimatic Condition
The climate is moderate and temperature ranges from 38oC during summer to about
12oC durinB winter. The average annual rainfall is 600 to 70Omm which received during
monsoon season from June to September. Predominant wind direction is SW-NE,
generally wind blows with a velocity of 10-12 Kms/hr in all seasons. Relative humidity
varies from 50% lo 95o,L-
Human Scttlement
There is no village and hutments within the lease. tarming is the main job of the
people of Adityana and nearby villages. Basically 80% of the population are of farmers'
Either they are having their own land for farming. Backward people like Koli, Harijans
of this village are working as labors in agricultural farms or in surrounding limestone
mines. Human settlement within a radius of 5 km. of area, are as follows:

There is neither reserves nor protected forest within the M.L. area. No NationalPark, Sanctuary exists within 1O km of the M.L. area. Recently the MoEF & CC
have notified the final ESZ vide notification No. S.O.1365(E) date 28/U/2O17, where in
this mining lease has been kept outside of ESZ boundary and mining outside ESZ is nota restricted activity. Now the company is in process to get environment clearance forwhich this a valid Mining Plan is basic document. (Refur Annexure No. 18A)
Environment lmDact Assessment:
(il land area usase:
fu there are several old working pits exist in the lease area, causing almost entirearea to be broken. For the production during proposal period of 2017-18, areaselected for mining is inside the existing broken area only. Thus, at the end of2017-18, the damage to the landscape in the form of pit & road, about 8.38 hectwill be degraded. As the deposit is an elevated ridge type and also not extended todeep ground level, thus no deep pits will be formed due to mining.

lease area does not contain any prominent features. The deposit does not
contain any harmful contents such as sulfur, potash etc, so it is not going to affectthe quality of water in surrounding area. The depth of ultimate pit in the lease area
will be much above the level of ground water table.
oise Levels
Noise pollution in mining is due to drilling & blasting operation and operation ofHEMM equipment. Occasional plying truck on the road will also cause impact onambient noise quality.
It will not cause any problem to the inhabitants of this area because there is nohuman settlement in the close proximity to the lease area. The nearest village is faraway to be affected by noise pollution.

Acid Mine DrainaEe
The deposit does not contain any harmful contents such as sulfur, potash etc, so itis not going to affect the quality of water in surrounding area. Also no dumps areto be maintained lease area to cause any AMD issue.
Surface Subsidence
Not Applicable as this is an Open pit Mining, however the mined out pit will not bedeep down in the ground so no risk of Surface subsidence involves wlth thisproject.
Socio Economics
Mining in this lease will give more iob opportunity directly and indirectly to thelocal people. This will reduce in the migration of jobless labourers from nativeplaces to other distant places.
The project will not generate hazardous dust and also human settlement is about1.5 kms away from mining area. Thus mining will not have any adverse impact onthe village human settlement.
(x) HistoricalMonuments
There are no monuments related to historical importance found in the core (leasearea), however from the Pillar No. 1, The cave of Jambuvati (A ,,protected,,
monument) is located at around 329m in SW direction.
However, the blast monitoring study conducted by tBM, Nagpur team in the year of 2008.After doing 9 test blasts, it was concluded that the present blasting practice may becontinued, as there is no damage tojambuvati cave by this charge weight of 3O.O kg perdelay. However, maximum charge weight per delay should not exceed the value 45.0 kgfor the Jambuvati cave which is at distance of 32o.om when the blasting was carried out inthe extreme southern corner of Mining Lease area.

8.3 ProPressive reclamation Plan:
To mhigate the impacts and ameliorate the condition, describe year wise stePs
proposed for phased restoration, rcclamation of lands already/to be degraded in
respect of following items separately for I year period.
8.3.1 Mined-Out Land: Describe the proposals to be imPlemented for reclamation and
rehabilitation of mined-out land including the manner in which the ach.lal site ofthe pit will be restored for future use.
The mine is not in operating phase since the year 2006, as it has not got the E.C.
from MoEF, New Delhi. Thus, no proposal for reclamation of pits or works out area
is made in this review of mining plan. The mining area is in moderately undulating
terrain, due to absence Soil, OB & mineral reject land reclamation by way ofbackfilling is not proposed. However, the closing benches will be suitably graded
and plantation done over them, to match with the surrounding greenery. The top ofbenches shall be properly fenced to prevent fall of cattle / person. At the end ofmining excavated area will be leveled and used as water reservoir.
The proposed reclamation astivities during planning period are shown on "Reclamation

[andslideThe mining lease area belongs to moderately undulating topography' The nature of
limestone deposit almost flat type havinB no overburden makes the chances of
landslide/ failure of stone insignificant.
No types of dump is to be developed in the lease area thus no dump failure is
expected.
SubsidenceThe mining will be done by opencast method by usin8 HEMM and no underground
working will exist in the area. Detail exploration work carried out which shows that
rock types available in the area are compact and massive so chance of subsidence
will be insignificant.
lndundation in underground mining
Mining is being carried out by opencast method' No underground mining is being
carried out or proposed in future also'

belts are associated with the collision plate boundary between the lndian andEurasian plates. The project site as well as study area lies in Zone-lll of SeismicZoning Map, and thus can be said to be located in an area of moderate seismichazard by national standards. Hence the risk of earthquake at the site persiststhough there has been no incident in the near past.
Tailing dam failureNo tailing dam exists or proposed in future also as no mineral processing/ beneficiationis planned.
FloodWith the previous years' meteorological data no flood situation was observed inthe area. However in unforeseen flood situation, workers will be shifted to highestelevation point for safety purpose.
Fire
Fire is a likely/ common hazard associated with working of diesel powered HEMMin mines. The sources of fire in mines could be source of ignition such as hightemperature, electricalshort circuiting, welding and cutting operations in vicinity offlammable materials like diesel, hydraulic oil, transmission oil, lubricant & grease,poor quality maintenance of spares like hoses, electrical parts etc and poorhousekeeping. Measures proposed to be taken for prevention of fire, are as under:. Mining machines are being maintained leakage free to obviate occurrence of
fireDue care will be taken in maintenance of electric wiring non-inflammablematerialGood housekeeping practices is being adopted in oil room and working area.Auto and portable fire extinguishers is being provided on all equipment.All the operatoE have been trained to use the extinguisher in case ofemergency.
ll. Disaster Manatement PlanThe Disaster Management Plan (DMp) is a guide, giving general considerations,directions, and procedures for handling emergencies likely to arise from plannedoperations. The copy of DMP has been kept at Adityana,s Mines office for readyreference.
