QUARRYING PLANIncluding Progressive Quarry Closure Plan of

Makapur Pink Granite Quarry ofSri. Mallanagouda S/o. Basavareddy

Prepared Under 8F of KMMC (Amendment) Rule, 2013

Amendment Rule 2 (m-3) of KMMC Rule 2013 states that Quarrying Plan /Scheme of Quarrying shall be prepared accordance with guidelines and formatissued by Indian Bureau of Mines. Accordingly, Quarrying Plan includingProgressive Quarry Closure Plan has been prepared as per guideline issued byIndian Bureau of Mines in 2014 of latest universal format for Mining PlanIncluding Progressive Mining Closure Plan is as followed.

ABSTRACT:

The term “Granite” is derived from Latin word “Granum” meaning “grain”because of its granular nature. India is well known since time immemorial for itsbuilding and dimensional/ornamental stones. Granite occupies a prominent placeamong dimensional stones on account of its hardness, durability, capability totake mirror polish and fascinating colours. As such the use of granite hasincreased many folds as dimensional and decorative stone all over the world andthis has created a good export market for Indian Granite.

Granite is the commonest of all the igneous rocks. It is a super-saturatedor over saturated granular plutonic rock. It was formed from magma whichcooled very slowly. It is often exposed to view by erosion of upper layers of rock.It forms most of the larger intrusive bodies, the batholiths. Granite andgranodiorite are estimated to have a combined bulk many times more than thatof all other plutonic rocks (Blyth, 1952). Granite is one of the best amongigneous rocks to be used as the structural stone, because of its goodappearance, its hardness and resistance to weathering. Granite is very tough.High grade granite will sustain a crushing load of about 1,054.5 kgs/sq.cm(15,000 pounds/sq.in) (Kessler et al, 1940). Granite is also the one with thecoarsest grains. It has great resistance to weathering. The average specificgravity of granite is 2.67.

1.0 GEOLOGY AND EXPLORATION:

a) Briefly describe the topography, drainage pattern, vegetation,climate, rainfall data of the area applied/mining lease area:

Topography:

The topograpghy of the quarry area is a flat & Plain land. The highestpoint in the area is 568m above M.S.L and the lowest elevation is about 546 mabove M.S.L. There are no streams or nallhas flowing in the lease area. Drainagepattern is denritic to sub dentritic in nature in the buffer zone.

Drainage Pattern:

There are no surface water sources within core zone. The drainage patternof the area is sub-dentritic in nature. During monsoon the rain water is drainedthrough the natural valley on the Western Slope.

Vegetation:

The vegetation occurring in the surrounding area belongs to southerntropical dry deciduous forests. The area falls under mixed deciduous subclassification.

Climate & Rainfall:

The region is characterized by hot and humid climate. Summer monthsare hot reaching a maximum temperature of 45.00C in the month of May. Theminimum temperature recorded in winter months is 17.70C. The rain fall iscontributed by southwest monsoon and the annual rain fall is around 564mm.

b) Brief description of Regional Geology with reference to location oflease/applied area:

Regional Geology:

The Dharwar Craton is one of classical and well studied Archean granitegreenstone terrains of the world and is principally composed of low k-tonalitic totrondhjemitic gneisses (peninsular gneiss) with infolded supracrustral (SargurGroup) and capped by younger series of volcano sedimentary sequences(Dharwar super group). Clac-alkaline granites form the latest Archean magmaticevent in the craton. The pronounced N-S elongation of regional grain in thecraton is one of the most important and conspicuous feature.

10 | P a g e

Dharwar supergroup with profound unconformity, rocks of Dharwarsupergroup in WDC are divided into lower Bababudan and upper Chitradurgagroups (Radhkrishna and Vaidynadhan, 1997) and exposed in two large beltsthat may be called as super belts viz., (1) Bababudan-Western Ghats-Shimogaand (2) Chitradurga-Gadaga ( Ramakrishanan and Vaidyanadhan, 2008).

Local geology:

The quarry lease area represents the Northern intrusion of ArcheanClosepet Granitic and gneissic terrain. During field studies about 10m of out cropwas observed in the adjacent quarry lease area which is signifying presence ofpotential Pink granite and gneiss rock in the plain area. There are no majorstructural deformations such as shear zone or fault zone noticed within thequarry lease area as it is small area. Irregular fractures and joints were noticedwithin the outcrop of the Pink granite gneiss rock. The rock is exhibiting themedium grained granular texture. There is soil cover observed in the lease area.

c) Detailed description of geology of the lease area such as shapeand size of the mineral/ore deposit, disposition various litho-unitsindicating structural features in any etc.

Geology of the Quarrying/Mining Area:

The quarry lease area is composed of granite of about 25% and remainingabout 75% is of defective blocks of granite. The granites, medium to finegrained igneous rock of even texture and pale in color, composed chiefly ofquartz, Plagioclase and feldspars. It usually contains small quantities of mica orhornblende, and minor accessory minerals may be present. Depending on thefeldspar present, granite may be, darkgray or light. It is commonly believed tohave solidified from molten rock (called magma) under potential origins but itmust intrude other. Most granite intrusions are emplaced at depth within thecrust, usually greater than 1.5 kilometre and upto 50km depth within thickcontinental crust. The granite and soil cover in the rock units as exposed in thequarry lease area can be made out from the map (Ref: Plate No. 3)

(d) (i) Name of prospecting/exploration agency:

There is no prospecting agency, exploration will be carried out by lesseeby engaging private consultant.

11 | P a g e

e) Details of prospecting/exploration already carried out:

(i) Number of pits and trenches indicating dimensions, spacing etcalong and across the strike/foliation with reference to geological plan.

It is suggested to clear the waste rock present on the surface of thedeposit in trail pits.

(ii) Number of boreholes indicating type (Core/RC/DTH), diameter,spacing, inclination, Collar level, depth etc with standard boreholes logsduly marking on geological plan/sections:

The granite rock is massive & huge its continuity. Hence Exploration is notrequired

(iii) Details of sample analysis indicating type of sample (surface/sub-surface from pits/trenches/boreholes etc) complete chemical analysisfor entire strata for all radicals may be undertaken for selected samplesfrom a NABL accredited Laboratory or Government laboratory orequivalent. Entire mineralized area may be analyzed meter wise with10% of check samples. (At least for 10% of total sample may beanalyzed in accordance to BIS and reports from NABL accredited/othergovernment laboratory). Entire bore hole samples are analyzed :

No drilling activity was carried out, as the deposit is vast and igneousformation and well exposed in the lease area as well as in the adjacent leases.

f) The surface plan of the lease area may be prepared on a scale of 1:1000 or 1: 2000 with contour interval of maximum of 10m dependingupon the topography and size of the area duly marked by grid linesshowing all features indicating under Rule 28(1)(a) of MCDR 1988:

Surface plan of the lease area is prepared on a scale of 1:1000 andenclosed as Plate No.3.

g) For preparation of geological plan, surface plan prepared on ascale of 1: 1000 or 1: 2000 scale specified under para 1.0 (f) of Part A ofthe format may be taken as the base plan. The details of explorationalready carried out along with supporting data for existence of mineral.Locations proposed exploration, various litho units along with structuralfeatures, mineralized/ore zone with grade variation if any may bemarked on the geological plan along with other features indicatingunder Rule 28(1)(b) of MCDR 1988:

12 | P a g e

The surface plan prepared on 1:1000 scale is taken as the base plan. TheGeological plan is prepared after conducting field study. Bench wise, area wisebehavior of the ore body and other geological parameters were considered forpreparation of Geological Plan. The details of exploration already carried outalong with supporting data for existence of mineral. Various litho units alongwith structural features, mineralized/ore zone are marked on the Geological Planand enclosed as Plate No.3.

h) Geological sections may be prepared on natural scale of geologicalplan at suitable interval across the lease area from boundary toboundary:

Geological sections of the lease area are prepared on 1: 1000 scales at aninterval of 85m.

i) Broadly indicate the future program of exploration with duejustification (duly marking on Geological plan year wise location indifferent colours ) taking into consideration the future tentativeexcavation program planned in next five years as in table below:-

So far mining in the lease area was carried out. Surface and Geologicalmapping has been carried out and Granite is well exposed laterally and depthwise. Hence, no further exploration is proposed.

J) Reserves and Resources as per UNFC with respect to the thresholdvalue notified by IBM may be furnished in a tabular form as givenbelow: (Area explored under different level of exploration may bemarked on the geological plan and UNFC code for area considered fordifferent categories of reserve/resources estimation may also bemarked on geological cross sections). Submit a feasibility/pre-feasibilitystudy report along with financial analysis for economic viability of thedeposit as specified under the UNFC field guidelines may beincorporated.

The following parameters for reserve estimations of the Pink graniteDeposit:

1. The entire quarry lease block is geologically mapped. The exposeddimensions of the granite bodies have been measured.2. The influence along the strike, for each has been taken as half thedistance from the cross section on one side up to the demarked limit of the Pinkgranite/ore zone on the other side. The shape, size, depth extension of the pinkgranite body as inferred in the cross section have been considered for reserveestimation.

13 | P a g e

3. The limiting reserves based on adjacent quarry existing outcrops of PinkGranite boulders and sheet maximum height (dimension) and from existingoutcrops edge (surrounding working quarry) of general ground level 540m RL istaken as mineable reserves, which taken reference from adjacent quarry leasearea., Basis being the indications observed in the surrounding area outcrops ofPink granite.1. For the Pink granite, a reserves is calculated on the basis of the outcropsof granite boulders sheets maximum height (dimensions). The conventionalmethods the total sectional area in square meters, influence in meters andrecovery factor (quantity=A X influence X recovery factor). The Pink graniterecovery is about 25%, waste (voids, defected materials) is about 75%.2. RF (Recovery factor) the recovery factor o f 75% is considered as theQuarry developmental works are to be taken up for exposing the Granitedeposit and based on nearby working quarries. The recovery factors is 25% forPink granite per cubic meter3. The cut-off blocks has been considered as follows: - the cut off blocksconsider for Pink granite is 0.3 m3 blocks and above.

Summary of category-wise Resources & Reserves of Pink granite are furnished inbelow table.

The year wise proposed production & development calculations are enclosed asAnnexure-XII.

Proposed parameters of the working benches:

The primary blocks size should be around 10m x 6m x 2m to 6m x 2m x2m. The primary block will be observed carefully on six faces for defects, shapeand size. Later it will be cut in to secondary blocks with the help of jackhammerdrilling and wedge cutting to various size of 3x2x2m to 1.6 x 1.2x0.8mdepending on primary block size. While cutting primary blocks some under sizeblocks or defective material or shapeless block will generate. This type ofunmarketable material will be treated as waste and this waste materialwill be shifted to dump yard with the help of excavator and tippers.The secondary blocks will be shifted to stockyard by tippers and thenthese blocks will be dressed to perfect sizes before transportation tomarket. The undulating faces of secondary blocks will be dressed with thehelp of jackhammer drilling and wedge cutting.

Due care will be taken in designing the benches by straightening &advancing the benches for effective and economical operation o f the quarry.Since the ground water table is much below and the rainfall is not veryhigh during monsoon, drainage of water inside the pit will not poseproblem.

17 | P a g e

Thus as discussed above, the system of working shall be:

(1) By formation of benches.(2) Such benches in granite and overburden including weathered granite shallbe formed separately and kept sufficiently in advance so that their workingdoes not interfere with the working of the granite.

Loading and Hauling: Loading of the Pink Granite blocks/mineral will be donemechanically to tippers of 10-16 tones capacity and transported from thequarry to the Stack yard and mineral rejection/waste will also be handledmechanically. The rejects/waste will be dumped separately. Proposed rejectiondump is away from the working pit. In the quarry lease, the road will bemaintained with 1 in 16 gradients. Sufficient number of bunds and parapetwalls will be made all along the quarry haulage roads wherever necessary inorder to maintain safe working conditions. The likely production of recoverablePink granite would be 1,570 Cum per annum.

II. Dump re handling (for the purpose of recovery of mineral):

There is top soil within applied quarry lease area same is required to rehandle the top soil stack for the purpose of afforestation/plantation in this lease.The waste dump materials like Voids & defective Materials and other will be usedfor the produce aggregated and M-Sand after obtaining necessary/requiredpermission from the concerned Department.

c) Enclose Individual year wise development plan and sections showingpit layouts, dumps, stacks of mineral reject, if any etc, in case of ‘A’category mines. Composite Development plans showing pit layouts,dumps, stack of mineral reject, if any, etc. and year wise sections incase of ‘B’ category mines.

Individual year-wise plans and sections showing workings of developmentand production as pit lay out and year wise sections are enclosed (Ref. PlateNo. 5).

a) Describe briefly giving salient features of the proposed method ofworking indicating Category of mine:

The method of working is open cast semi mechanized method. Excavationby drilling, cracking by using Expansive Mortar chemical technique, loading ofPink granite & waste will be done by machinery. The height of the benches shallbe 3.00 m and working bench width will be maintained more than that of theheight. The road gradient of 1 in 16 will be maintained as per MMR 1961.

18 | P a g e

Removal of Over Burden:

The over /side burden constitutes of weathered granite. The waste will beremoved and loaded by the excavators into tippers.

Quarrying of Pink Granite:

The primary blocks size should be around 10m x 6m x 2m to 6m x 2m x2m. The primary block will be observed carefully on six faces for defects, shapeand size. Later it will be cut in to secondary blocks with the help of jackhammerdrilling and wedge cutting to various size of 3x2x2m to 1.6 x 1.2x0.8mdepending on primary block size. While cutting primary blocks some under sizeblocks or defective material or shapeless block will generate. This type ofunmarketable material will be treated as waste and this waste material will beshifted to dump yard with the help of excavator and tippers. The secondaryblocks will be shifted to stockyard by tippers and then these blocks will bedressed to perfect sizes before transportation to market. The undulating facesof secondary blocks will be dressed with the help of jackhammer drilling andwedge cutting.

Due care will be taken in designing the benches by straightening &advancing the benches for effective and economical operation o f the quarry.Since the ground water table is much below and the rainfall is not veryhigh during monsoon, drainage of water inside the pit will not poseproblem.

The likely generation of waste such as top soil, waste with voids & defectswill be dumped separately in the proposed waste dump location and later onutilized for backfilling of the area. The maximum build up height of the dump

21 | P a g e

during the conceptual period will be about 5m having 280 as natural angle ofrepose. The dumped material shall also be utilized for back filling o f theworked out pits during the post mining as shown on Plate No. 4.

The exploration results obtained during the present plan period and thedata generated by working the mineral deposit will be taken into considerationand accordingly exploration program if required will be finalized for re-assessment of the mineral reserves at the end of the fifth year as there areenough reserves till the end of the fifth year which will be helpful to carry outproduction during the first block of five year period. The result of the samewill also be thus helpful for further modification of the Conceptual plan. Theguidelines of State Government i.e. DMG will be followed during the conceptualperiod in respect of Granite Conservation & Environmental Management Plan.

The dump shall be suitably stabilized and the slope shall have contourtrenches of 1 m interval where species of plants shall be planted toconsolidate the dump. On the dump terraces plantation activity could becarried on. Similarly, on subsequent quarrying, area available on the top of thefirst stage of dumping, if required second and third stage dumps shall bedeveloped. Thus reclamation of the static dumps shall be taken up concurrentto the quarrying operations in a phased manner.

It is always borne in mind to bring back near natural shape to the areaand its economic value is elevated. It is further ensured that, there is positivecontribution to the environment and socio -economic development of the region.

(i) Anticipated life of mine/quarry:(a) Estimated Mineable Reserves : 59,705 Cum(Proved & Probable reserves of Pink Granite)(b) Expected rate of production/annum : 1,570 Cum(c) Anticipated life of mine : ~ 38.02 years say 39 year

(iii) Mine Development (ultimate pit limit) optimum exploitation andutilization of minerals:

4. BLASTING

There is no blasting involved. The jack hammer drilling is required forcutting of blocks only by wire saw and lifting by cranes.

a) Broad blasting parameters like charge per hole, blasting pattern,charge per dealy, maximum number of holes blasted in a round, mannerand sequence of firing, etc.Drilling:

Total estimated quantity requiring (30%) : 9,420 cum/annumPink Granite Blocks & Waste (300 working days) : 32 cum/dayDrill hole dia : 28-33mmSpacing of holes for wire saw cutting : 3 (length) x 2.0(width) x 2.0(height) in mtrs

Free face:

Pink granite of wire saw cutting blocks : 12cubic meters

Above proposed productions target to achieve the minimum wire saw cuttingand jackhammer drilling require horizontal two holes, vertical offset holes twono's for free face. Thus 2 jackhammer drill holes are required for wide wedgemethod of cuttings & drilling ho le s required 30-34hole with depth per hole is0.70metres.

Wire saw holes to be drilled/day (horizontal): length 3m x No’s of Hole 6 =18mtrsWire saw holes to be drilled/day (Offset Vertical): length 2m x No’s of Hole 6 =12mtrsWide wedge holes to be drilled/day: 34 x 2 (wire saw cutting) = 68 holesWide wedge meterage/day : 102 x 0.70 = 71.4 meters / dayHence, total meterage: 101.40 metersCapacity of drill/hr in strata : 5-10 meteres/hr

Therefore Compressor IR-450/500 or Perforavgirodrill-200 & 6 Jack Hammer drillwill meet the requirement and one spare jack hammer drill.

-Water Regime, Quality of Air, Ambient Noise Level, Flora, ClimateConditions:

(i) Water regime

No rivers or nallah pass through the area. One seasonal Hire or Maski Nlocated at the distance of 0.65 km from the lease. The quarrying activity will beconcentrated on the plain ground. There are no perennial streams or nallahs.The water course is only seasonal and observed in monsoon season only. Themonsoon water gets drained off through the natural valleys.

(ii) Quality of air :

The air quality good since production and development is in smallquantity. Water spraying on transport roads will be carried-out periodically.

36 | P a g e

(iii) Ambient noise level:

The noise generation and its impact on environment is negligible sincethere is no blasting and deployment of machinery is also in small quantity.

The ground water quality will not have any impact due to mining in thislease since there is no discharge of effluents. During rainy season surface waterpollution will be controlled by forming drainage channels and construction ofretaining walls all along the toe of the dump.

(iv) Flora and Fauna

Core Zone:

In core zone only plantation such as neelgiri and small bushes areobserved.

Buffer Zone:

Some important local species are observed in the buffer zone such asAccasia, Neem and thorny bushes.

Fauna:

Some of the animals seen occasionally in buffer zone are wild bears,jackals, panthers, foxes, mongoose, rat and porcupine. The bird species arewhite eagle, koel, owl, common bee eater, dove, sparrow Howk, house cow etc.,the reptils found are also common variety like viper, krait, monitor lizard, toadchameleon etc., the insects are honey bee, grass hopper, wasp, termites,scorpion, spider etc. the fauna species are common varieties without having anyendangered species. The lease area does not have any hiding place for wild lifeand hence they are not spotted in the buffer zone area.

(v) Climatic conditions:

The climatic of this district, is marked by hot summer months, low rainfalland a pleasant monsoon season. The region is characterized by hot and humidclimate. Summer months are hot reaching a maximum temperature of 45.00C inthe month of May. The minimum temperature recorded in winter months is17.70C. The rain fall is contributed by southwest monsoon and the annual rainfall is around 564mm.

The relative humidity is high during monsoon season ranging from 70% to75% and remains low in the rest of the year, particularly in summer months.Winds are generally moderate during summer and strong during rainy season. Inthe Southwest monsoon period the winds blow mainly from a southwesterly or

37 | P a g e

westerly direction. In the rest of the year the winds are predominately fromNortheast and Southwest.

-Human settlements

There is no human settlement within the quarry lease area. Workmen andstaff will come from the villages outside the leasehold. So there is nodisplacement involved. There are 6 villages within 5kms radius, those distance,direction from the area along with population are tabulated below. The nearesthabitation is at Jakkarmadugu village, which is situated at a distance of about2.9 km. The same also indicated on key plan enclosed as Plate No.1.

Total 4-05

ii. Air quality

The impacts on air environment from a quarrying activity depend onvarious factors like production capacity, machinery deployed, control measuresadopted, operation & maintenance of various equipments and vehicles. Apartfrom these, there are other activities associated viz., transportation of ore andwaste, stocking facilities & dump management within the quarry lease area. Theair quality of the mining area is also affected due to following reasons like

39 | P a g e

drilling, cracking and transportation of the ornamental stone and operation ofdiesel based equipments. To know the impacts of quality of air the parametersuch as Suspended Particulate Matter (SPM), Sulphur Dioxide (SO2) Oxides ofNitrogen (NOx) and Carbon monoxide (CO) monitoring is being carried outthrough consultant having NABL accredited agencies.

However may be the impact, to reduce the same, following mitigative measuresare adopted.

• Frequent sprinkling of water on the haulage road to prevent dust emissiondue to the movement of machinery and vehicles.

• Excavation operations will be suspended during the period of strong wind.• Grading and proper Maintenance of Haulage/approach Roads• Vehicles shall comply with the prescribed emission norms• Proper preventive maintenance to reduce emissions• Unnecessary idling of the vehicles & machinery will be completely avoided.• Regular Monitoring of Ambient Air Quality• Provision of Dust Masks to all Employees Working in the Quarry Area

iii. Water quality

Due to the mining activities such as loading, haulage and etc., there willbe impact on the surface water. However there are no any surface water bodieswithin the lease area, hence impact within the lease area. Due to this activity,there will impact on the surface water bodies which are outside the lease area byway of surface water bodies which are outside the lease area by way of surfacerun off / wash off such as water courses, nallahs near by quarry.

During the monsoon, there will be an impact in the form of surface runoff,wash off where the material will be transported to the local water bodies. Andalso there will be an impact on the ground water due to mining activities.

Excepting during monsoon months, no water shall be discharged from quarry.The rain water shall be diverted to its natural course.

Following protective measures will be adopted to maintain the water quality:

Garland drains are cut all along the benches prior to the monsoon to avertthe water into the pit.

The water that would be encountered in the project is rainwater. The water course due to rain shall be diverted away from the working by

digging the garland drain. However, granite rock is not toxic and hencethere shall not be any chemical hazards effect

No mine working will touch the ground water.

40 | P a g e

Further sufficient gully checks shall be provided to check any silt flowingalong with the surface run-off.

Plantation of fast growing deep rooted plant species

iv. Noise level

Due to the mining activities such as loading, drilling, haulage and etc.,there will be disturbance in the ambient noise levels. The people nearby quarrywill be affected. More over the quarry is remote and where there is no cluster ofhuman settlements but for few scattered houses.

Since the quarry is semi-mechanized, the noise pollution is mainly due tothe quarrying machinery and movement of trucks and drilling and blastingactivities. There will be impact in surrounding area due to the noise generation.

To reduce the impact on the noise following measures will be adopted:

• Rotation of workers to minimize exposure time• Provision of earmuffs to workers exposed to high noise areas• Use of jack hammer drilling, delivery of compressed air at optimal

pressure• The equipment & machines will be maintained properly. Particular

attention will be given to the silencers and mufflers.• Unnecessary idling of the vehicles and mining equipment will be avoided.• Limiting time exposure of workers to excessive noise.• Speed of the trucks entering or existing quarry will be limited to moderate

speed 25kmph to prevent undue noise from empty trucks.• Planting of trees along roads to acts as acoustic barriers in buffer zone.

v. Vibration levels (due to blasting)

There is no blasting proposed in this quarry. Only drilling & cracking byExpansive Mortar Chemical method will be used. Hence noise and vibration dueblasting is nil. Hence there is no disturbance for Fauna

vi. Water regime

There are no any perennial water courses within the leasehold area.Couple of water courses falls outside the quarry area where the rain waterpasses through this course and gets confluence with the adjacent water bodiessuch as tanks, ponds and etc, the drainage pattern in this area is dendritic innature.

41 | P a g e

Water resources in this area are Ground water and rainwater. The areareceives moderate rain fall of 564 mm annually on an average. Raichur district isone of the draught districts in the state of Karnataka. The water table in thisarea is beyond feet 80 m, in the surrounding bore wells. The bottom mostquarry working is likely to touch 546 m above MSL, where quarry operation isnot going to touch the general ground water table.

During the monsoon, there will be an impact in the form of fluctuation ofthe ground water table, which is negligible, surface run off, wash off where thematerial will be transported to the local water bodies. To avoid these followingprotective measures will be taken up.

1. Before onset of monsoon, drains are cut along toe of the quarry faces todivert the surface run off.

2. Garland drain is provided at the quarry top to regulate monsoon waterand direct the same to the settling ponds/ quarry pit to contain the quarrywash off and to avoid the same joining to the adjoining surface waterbodies / water courses. It also helps to avert eventual collapses anddamages to the quarry faces.

vii. Acid mine drainage: Not applicable as acid rains will not rain.

viii. Surface subsidence: No surface subsidence is expected as the strata arehard.

ix) Socio-economics

Quarrying sites are generally remote and under developed. Standard ofliving of people in such areas is normally low; therefore due to industrial activitylike Quarrying, people residing in the nearby villages within the buffer zone areto be benefited by direct and indirect employment opportunities created by theQuarrying activities. People are also beneficiaries for the facilities developed dueto Quarrying activity.

Applicant/Lessee shall provide required Medical facility to all theemployees at the quarry such as first aid, regular check up, ambulance etc. Inaddition lessee also provides the medical checkup camps to the local villagers,supply of drinking water, and contribution of funds for social and culturalprogram me.

Quarrying activity contributes towards economic up-liftment by way of jobopportunities in the region. Hence there will be an increase in quality of life in

42 | P a g e

the area. Quarrying activity will also boost the ancillary industries, business andmarket establishments.

Due to the Quarrying activity, no significant adverse changes arevisualized in the traditional way of life of the people residing in the villages in thebuffer zone. Further people residing in the nearby villages are benefited by thedirect and indirect employment opportunities created by the Quarrying activities.The budgetary provision for Environment Management Plan in the costestimation.

ix. Historical monuments etc.

No historical monuments etc. are located in the vicinity and hence thereshall not be any effect.
