proposed mine site is (Private Land) Badani 2. The targeted production of mineral will

be 1,19,952 TPA. The estimated project cost will be Rs. 1.0 Crore. The expected life of

mine will be = 13 years

Copy of transfer deed is enclosed as ANNEXURE - I.

2.2 BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE NATURE OF PROJECT

This is a proposed Granitemining project. As per EIA Notification dated 14th

Sep, 2006 and its subsequent amendments and as per S.O 2269 (A) dated

01.07.2016, the project will be appraised as, Category “B2” at DEAC. It has been

proposed to excavate approximately 1,19,952 TPA of Granite from M.L. No. 13/14,

by open - cast, semi - mechanized method. The lease area is 1.0 ha. Total mineable







reserve available is 1,19,952 MT of Granite mineral. The expected life of mine is

13years. The waste generated will be used in making haul roads and building

works. The Granite will be transported through by hired trucks.

At the end of life of mine, at the end of life of mine, total excavated area will be

1.4521ha which will be converted as water reservoir and proposed plantation is outside

the lease area.. The daily water demand during the operation phase will be 5.6 KLD.

The daily water demand during operation phase will be 5.6 KLD water

demand will be met from the nearby village pond (desolation and impoundment

will be carried out by P.P.). On one hand this will recharge the ground water table

on the other will act as a water source for nearby habitants. Only water for

drinking purposes i.e. 0.6 KLD will be brought from nearby dug well/PHED.

However, rain water stored in the pit during the rainy season will be used for

plantation and dust suppression. The depth of water table is 75m (Pre-Monsoon)

to 70 m (Post-Monsoon) below the general ground level. Thus ground water table

will not be encountered during working in the mine.

2.2 NEED FOR THE PROJECT & ITS IMPORTANCE TO THE COUNTRY/ REGION

The Graniteis a basic building construction material for constructing

houses, bridges and roads. It is cheaper than the RCC construction material due to

its easy in workability. Thus, keeping in mind this requirement, mining of

Graniteis necessary for durability and to beautify by carving as per the

requirement of the consumer.

Total of 16 people will be employed for the mining activity which will

create direct & indirect opportunity for employment to local people. By mineral

production the applicant will pay royalty & other taxes which will be an additional

source of revenue for the government. The proposed Granite mining project will

cater to the needs of individual and local market of construction, in turn benefiting

in the socio - economic development of the region.







2.3 DEMAND – SUPPLY GAP

Granite is one of the essential components for building and infrastructural

development projects. It has high demand in the market due to increased

domestic, industrial and other infrastructural activities.

5.1 INDUSTRIAL AREA

The area is well connected by road network to the mines, District headquarter etc. The

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

proposed.

5.2 RESIDENTIAL AREA (NON PROCESSING AREA)

The local people will be employed, hence no residential area/ housing is proposed.

5.3 GREEN BELT

Refer point no. 5.3.

5.4 SOCIAL INFRASTRUCTURE

The proposed project is situated at Village - Gundoj, Tehsil - Pali, District – Pali

(Rajasthan). As local people will be employed for excavation activities, no permanent

infrastructure is required. The workers will come to the site by company’s vehicle. By

this project, indirect means of earnings in the area will be developed, which will bring a

positive impact on the adjacent habitation.

5.5 CONNECTIVITY

Given in Para No. 4.0.

5.6 DRINKING WATER MANAGEMENT (SOURCE & SUPPLY OF WATER)

The total water requirement for the proposed activity is 5.6 KLD out of which 5.6 KLD will

be met from the nearby village pond (desolation and impoundment will be carried out by

P.P.). On one hand this will recharge the ground water table on the other will act as a

water source nearby habitants. Only water for drinking purposes i.e. 0.6 KLD will be

brought from nearby dug well/PHED. However, rain water stored in the pit during the

rainy season will be used for plantation and dust suppression. The proposed indigenous

water source created by the project proponent will fulfill the water demand of local

habitants.
