1.0 INTRODUCTION

Essel Mining & Industries Ltd. (EMIL), a company of Aditya Birla Group

is operating Koira Iron Mines spreading over an area of 90.143 ha falls

under the jurisdiction of Koira, Nuagaon, Kadodihi & Harischandrapur

villages of Bonai Taluk, Sundergarh District, Odisha

Essel Mining & Industries Ltd. (EMIL) as part of statutory requirement

is monitoring various environmental parameters in an around the Koira

Iron Mines on continuous basis.

EMIL has retained M/s B S Environment Consultants Pvt Ltd. to carry

out the Environmental monitoring in and around the Mine. This report

presents the Half yearly Environmental monitoring data for the period

October’ 2011 – March’ 2012.

1.1 LOCATION OF THE MINE

The Koira Iron Mines is located near Koira, Nuagaon,Kadodihi &

Harischandrapur villages, BONAI Tehsil, Sundergarh district in Orissa.

Fig – 1 shows the Location Map of the mine. The mining lease area is

bounded by North latitude 210 53’ 40” to 210 54’20” and East longitude

850 13’ 20” to 850 14’20” and is covered in the Survey of India toposheet

73 G/1. The average altitude is about 590 m above MSL.

The mining lease is bounded by the leasehold area of M/s O.M.M Ltd.

and M/s S.D.Sharma on the North. The following is immediate vicinity

of the mine in all the four directions

North : The ML of M/s. S. D. Sharma lies on the northern fringes of

lease.

East: To the east of the mining lease site the village of Koira is located.

A small unnamed Nalla runs beside east of the mining lease site

from South to North direction.

South: The southern side of the mining lease site is partially agricultural

Land of Koira Village.

West: Village Nuagaon

Fig – 2 shows the Key plan of the mining lease.

The mining lease falls within the Singhbhum – Keonjhar-Bonai range of

hills roughly aligned from North South and the area is extremely rich in

mineral resources, especially iron ore and manganese.

The mining lease is located 1 km west of Koira Village and Roxy railway

siding is located 28 km in the South-West direction whereas, the

nearest Railway station on Barbil –Tatanagar branch of S.E Railway

Line at 35 km.

The district town of Sundergarh is located 190 km to the North – West

direction accessible by National Highway 215 and 23 and State

Highway No. 10. NH-215 runs about half a Km away from the mine

lease area.

The nearest railway station is located at the town of Barbil, which is 35

km away and is connected to the metropolis of Kolkata by a South-

Eastern railway line.

The site is well connected by metal road with steel cities Jamshedpur

(185 km), Rourkela (100 km) and district town Sundergarh (190 km).

The forests in the immediate vicinity of mining lease are distributed in

the Khajurdihi Reserve Forest to the South, the Toda and Sarkunda

Reserve Forest to the west and south-west, the Karo Reserve Forest to

the north and the Mendharmaruni Reserve Forest the north east. A

patch of dense mixed Sal jungle extends to about 1.5 km to the south-

east of the mining lease covering the Bhabani and the Kalmanga Pahars

(hills).The area falls within the watershed of the Karo nala, which flows

within 1 km to the North –west of the mining lease site.

Fig – 3 shows the 10 km radius (study area) around the mining lease

area.
