District Survey Report of Hazaribag, Jharkhand 6.8 Forest

Hazaribagh District is well endowed with forest in an area of 2088 Sq.km, which is 34.81% out of total area. Forests are an important natural resource for an area. They have a moderating influence against floods and rain and thus they protect the soil against erosion. They also provide basic raw material to a number of important industries, namely furniture, match box, paper, rayon construction, railway slippers, wooden poles, etc. Moreover, the environmental benefits of the forests are not far to seek. Due to favourable environmental condition, this district is rich plant diversity, such as Timber Yielding Plants, Ornamental Plants, Medicinal Plants, Home Construction Plants etc. Among several others, the most commonly observable plants are – Babul, Sada Basak, Bel, Muktajuri, Neem etc.

Hazaribagh Wildlife Sanctuary is located in the district.Tigers, cheetal sambar, wild boar, nilgai, sloth bear and kakar can be spotted here.

District Survey Report of Hazaribag, Jharkhand 9.Ground Water Management Strategy

9.1 Ground Water Development Overall stage of ground water development is 39%. Hazaribagh block has the highest stage of ground water development (66.41%) and Chauparan block (20.07%) has the lowest stage of ground water development. At present ground water is feeding entire requirement of water for domestic purpose except a few places like Hazaribagh where lake reservoirs are used. Recently a few dams namely Lotoa and Salparni have been constructed for irrigation purposes. 9.2 Ground Water Management Strategy In Hazaribagh district ground water is localized in the secondary porosity i.e. fractures in granite gneiss and gondwana rocks. C.G.W.B. have drilled 26 no. of borewells in the district .Exploratory wells at Ramgarh cant, vinoba bhave university camus Hazaribagh, Barhi block campus and Charhi are high productive wells. Lineaments are concentrated mostly in Ichak, Barkatha, barkagaon and keredari blocks. Valley fills area and areas having more lineament density are most promising sites for potential ground water. Resistivity survey should be preceded before exploratory drilling. 9.3 Water Conservation and Artificial Recharge Long-term NHNS trend of Hazaribagh, Barhi and Padma blocks show declining trend so these areas are suitable for artificial recharge. Check dams, Gully plugging, contour bunding, Nala bunding, cement plugging are some of the Rain water harvesting structures that can be implemented in rural areas of Hazaribagh district. Roof top rainwater harvesting can be a suitable option in Hazaribagh urban areas.

Awareness and Training Activity One training programme on Artificial Recharge to Ground Water was organized at Vinoba Bhave University campus in Hazaribagh.Vice-chancellor of the university Dr. Bahura Ekka was the chief guest. The Scientists of C.G.W.B delivered lectures on ground water conservation and techniques of artificial recharge. 9.4Area Notified by CGWB All blocks of the district comes under safe category.

9.5 RECOMMENDATION:- 1. Remote sensing studies coupled with Hydrogeological investigation and followed by Resistivity survey is essential to locate favourable sites for ground water drilling in the district. 2. In pediment and shallow buried pediment, large diameter open wells are suggested for optimum extraction. Rectangular shape (that is longer axis perpendicular to the major fracture) is desirable in place of rounded well. 3. Hazaribagh, Ichak and Padma blocks are suitable for artificial recharge and Rainwater harvesting. 4. Large number of bore wells drilled in granite gneiss show good discharge during weathered formation drilling but due to casing of the weathered formation, the discharge is diminished. So, Slotted casings can be a good option where both weathered and fractured cumulative discharge can be utilized.

Based on the geological map of India the following geological succession has been by Geological Survey of India covering Jharkhand State are as follows:-  Soil/Alluvium and intrusive rocks  Rajmahal Basalts and intertrappeans  Gondwana Super Group  Vindhyan Supergroup  Kolhan Group  Younger Granites,Granophyres,and Soda Granite  Bihar Mica belt (Proterozoic high grade supracrustals)  Chhotanagpur Granitic Gneissic Complex(with high grade enclaves ,  Metabasites,anorthosites and charnockites  Singhbhum Group  Proterozoic Volcano sedimentary Groups  Iron Ore Groups and associated ultramafic and mafic rocks.  Singhbhum Granite Complex and equivalents  Older Metamorphic Group The geological succession represents the rock types of different equivalents present in whole Jharkhand State.

District Survey Report of Hazaribag, Jharkhand GEOLOGY OF THE AREA:- The area forms part of the Chhotanagpur plateau. A broad spectrum of Archaean to Quaternary formations comprising crystalline,sedimentary and metamorphic rocks occur in the area. The unclassified metamorphics,gneissic complex and Proterozoic intrusive rocks suffered strong folding deformation and medium grade metamorphism. Most of the faults and shear zones in the gneissic and metamorphic and Gondwanas are mainly E-W,NW-SEand NE-SW trending. The crystalines are foliated, lineated and jointed. The foliation is moderate to steeply dipping, with varied trends. The most dominant being E-W.Bedding preserved in Gondwana is horizontal or low dipping. Unclassified metamorphics are represented by epidiorite,amphibolite ,Hornblende schist /gneiss,Quartzite,felspathic/micaceous quartz schist, crystalline limestone,calc silicate,phyllites and mica schist.Chhotanagpur granite gneiss is represented by biotite granite gneiss,migmatites augen gneiss, hornblende granite gneiss, andEpidote granite gneiss The rocks have been profusely intruded by dolerites,metadolerites,pegmatites,intrusive granite etc. Rocks of Gondwana Super Group present in Hazaribagh and Ramgarh district are represented by boulder bed, sandstone, shale and coal seams.

Broadly, the Geological formation found in the Hazaribagh District may be grouped into two chief divisions: 1. Pre-Cambrian comprising a great variety of Gneisses, Schists and Granites and occupying the greater portion of the District. 2. The Gondwana division having three important Coal Fields, namely, South Karanpura, North Karanpura and Ramgarh. The district is a part of Pre-Cambrian Formation whose age goes back to 3500 Million Years of the early history of the earth. However, the belts of Coal Bearing Gondwana Formations evolved in a continental environment in Late carboniferous to Early Cretaceous Time. (290-150 Million Years). Both Exogenous and Endogenous processes act as agents in carving out landforms. The former includes distructive processes of weathering and erosion by several external agents. The Gondwana Basins were initiated in the late Carboniferous and developed in to down faulted half garden with a very thick pile of sediments. Mineral Wealth:-Various minerals have been reported to occur in the district of which Coal and Limestone are two major mineral found in the district. Among minor minerals Fireclay (Barkagaon, Darhi, Kedari, Churchu Blocks),Quartz, Felspar (Spread in all the Blocks where Granitic pegmatites are found), Granites (Ichak, Padma, Bishungarh), Building material (Stone Aggregate) in almost every locations interspersed with dykes Soapstone (Katkamsandi) have their presence in the district.

12.1 Vulnerability of the State

Almost all the 24 districts are affected by different kind of Disaster. There is great need to strengthen the capacity of State, District, Block and newly formed Panchayat level of departments, institutions and functionaries to respond to the Disaster at their own level in participation of community. Jharkhand is vulnerable to following kind of Hazards:-  Drought,  Mining Accidents,  Chemical and Industrial Hazards,  Lightning,  Bird Flu,  Flood,  Earthquake,  Fire / Forest Fire,  Elephant Attacks,  Climate Change, Biodiversity loss,  Naxalism/Landmine Blasts etc.

12.2 Mine disaster Thousands of miners die each year around the globe due to mining accidents, especially from underground coal mining, although hard rock mining is not immune from accidents. A number of coal mines in the state are affected by fires leading to steady destruction of precious energy resource. The reason for mine fires presumably involves the phenomenon of spontaneous heating through two interrelated processes viz., the oxygen coal interaction or oxidative process and the thermal process. It is estimated that about 10% of total national coal resources are in the fire-affected areas. Although underground mining has considerably less impact than opencast mining on land, it causes enough damage through subsidence as observed in Jharia and Raniganj coalfields. Apart from this, leaks of poisonous gases such as hydrogen sulphide or explosive natural gases, especially firedamp or methane, dust explosions, collapsing of mine stopes, mining-induced seismicity, flooding, or general mechanical errors from improperly used or malfunctioning mining equipments and improper explosives underground can also cause to catastrophe.

The Chasnala mining disaster happened on 27 December 1975 in a coal mine near Dhanbad caused by an explosion in the mine followed by flooding which killed 372 miners.

The Dhanbad coal mine disaster occurred on May 28, 1965, in a coal mine near Dhanbad. On the fateful day, there was an explosion in Ghori Dhori colliery near Dhanbad, which led to fire in the mines which killed 375 miners.

13. OVERVIEW OF IMPACT OF MINING ONENVIRONMENT

District Survey Report of Hazaribag, Jharkhand Impact on Environment due to mining activities varies based on the quantam of production rate proposed. The different activities envolved before & during mining are narrated below, which helps to asses the impact on environment.

 Exploration:

A mining project can only commence with knowledge of the extent and value of the mineral ore deposit. Information about the location and value of the mineral ore deposit is obtained during the exploration phase. This phase includes surveys, field studies, and drilling test boreholes and other exploratory excavations.

The exploratory phase may involve clearing of wide areas of vegetation (typically in lines), to allow the entry of heavy vehicles mounted with drilling rigs. Many countries require a separate EIA for the exploratory phase of a mining project because the impacts of this phase can be profound and because further phases of mining may not ensue if exploration fails to find sufficient quantities of high-grade mineral ore deposits of economical values.

 Development

If the mineral ore exploration phase proves that there is a large enough mineral ore deposit, of sufficient grade, then the project proponent may begin to plan for the development of the mine. This phase of the mining project has several distinct components.

 Sitepreparation

If a mine site is located in a remote, undeveloped area, the project proponent may need to begin by clearing land for the construction of staging areas that would house project personnel and equipment. Even before any land is mined, activities associated with site preparation and clearing can have significant environmental impacts, especially if they are within or adjacent to ecologically sensitive areas. The EIA must assess, separately, the impacts associated with site preparation and clearing.

 Activemining

Once a mining company has constructed access roads and prepared staging areas that would house project personnel and equipment, mining may commence. All types of active mining share a common aspect, i.e. the extraction and concentration (or beneficiation) of a metal from the earth. Proposed mining projects differ considerably in the proposed method for extracting and concentrating the metallic ore. In almost every case, metallic ores are buried under a layer of ordinary soil or rock (called ‘overburden’ or ‘waste rock’) that must be moved or excavated to allow access to the ore deposit. The first way in which proposed mining projects differ is the proposed method of moving or excavating the overburden. What follows are brief descriptions of the most common methods.

District Survey Report of Hazaribag, Jharkhand

 Open-pitmining

Open-pit mining is a type of strip mining in which the ore deposit extends very deep in the ground, necessitating the removal of layer upon layer of overburden and ore.

In many cases, logging of trees and clear-cutting or burning of vegetation above the ore deposit may precede removal of the overburden. The use of heavy machinery, usually bulldozers and dump trucks, is the most common meas of removing overburden. Open- pit mining often involves the removal of natively vegetated areas, and is therefore among the most environmentally- destructive types of mining, especially within tropical forests.

 Underground mining

In underground mining, a minimal amount of overburden is removed to gain access to the ore deposit. Access to this ore deposit is gained by tunnels or shafts. Tunnels or shafts lead to a more horizontal network of underground tunnels that directly access the ore. In an underground mining method called ‘stoping’ or ‘block caving,’ sections or blocks of rock are removed in vertical strips that leave a connected underground cavity that is usually filled with cemented aggregate and waste rock.

Although underground mining is a less environmentally-destructive means of gaining access to an ore deposit, it is often more costly and entails greater safety risks than strip mining, including open-pit mining. While most large- scale mining projects involve open- pit mining, many large underground mines are in operation around the world.

 Disposal of overburden and waste rock

In almost every project, metallic ores are buried under a layer of ordinary soil or rock (called ‘overburden’ or ‘waste rock’) that must be moved or excavated to allow access to the metallic ore deposit. For most mining projects, the quantity of overburden generated by mining is enormous. The ratio of the quantity of overburden to the quantity of mineral ore (called the ‘strip ratio’) is usually greater than one, and can be much higher. For example, if a proposed mining project involves the extraction of 100 million metric tons of mineral ore, then the proposed mining project could generate more than one billion metric tons of overburden and waste rock.

These high-volume wastes, sometimes containing significant levels of toxic substances, are usually deposited on-site, either in piles on the surface or as backfill in open pits, or within underground mines. Therefore, the EIA for a proposed mining project must carefully assess the management options and associated impacts of overburden disposal.  Sitereclamationand closure

District Survey Report of Hazaribag, Jharkhand When active mining ceases, mine facilities and the site are reclaimed and closed. The goal of mine site reclamation and closure should always be to return the site to a condition that most resembles the pre-mining condition. Mines that are notorious for their immense impact on the environment often made impacts only during the closure phase, when active mining operations ceased. These impacts can persist for decades and even centuries. Therefore, the EIA for every proposed mining project must include a detailed discussion of the mine Reclamation and Closure Plan offered by the mining proponent.

Mine reclamation and closure plans must describe in sufficient detail how the mining company will restore the site to a condition that most resembles pre-mining environmental quality; how it will prevent – in perpetuity – the release of toxic contaminants from various mine facilities (such as abandoned open pits and tailings impoundments); and how funds will be set aside to insure that the costs of reclamation and closure will be paid for.

 Humandisplacementandresettlement

According to the International Institute for Environment and Development: The displacement of settled communities is a significant cause of resentment and conflict associated with large-scale mineral development. Entire communities may be uprooted and forced to shift elsewhere, often into purpose-built settlements not necessarily of their own choosing. Besides losing their homes, communities may also lose their land, and thus their livelihoods. Community institutions and power relations may also be disrupted. Displaced communities are often settled in areas without adequate resources or are left near the mine, where they may bear the brunt of pollution and contamination. Forced resettlement can be particularly disastrous for indigenous communities who have strong cultural and spiritual ties to the lands of their ancestors and who may find it difficult to survive when these are broken.

ENVIRONMENTALANDSOCIALIMPACTSOFMINING The most impotant important environmental impact of mining projects are:-  Acid mine drainage and contaminant leaching

Acid mine drainage is considered one of mining most serious threats to water resources. A mine with acid mine drainage has the potential for long-term devastating impacts on rivers, streams and aquatic life.

HARM TO FISH & OTHER AQUATIC LIFE:

If mine waste is acid-generating, the impacts to fish, animals and plants can be severe. Many streams impacted by acid mine drainage have a pH value of 4 or lower – similar to battery acid. Plants, animals, and fish are unlikely to survive in streams such as this.

PERPETUALPOLLUTION:

Acid mine drainage is particularly harmful because it can continue indefinitely causing damage long after mining has ended. Due to the severity of water quality impacts from acid mine drainage, many hardrock mines across the west require water treatment in perpetuity. Even with existing technology, acid mine drainage is virtually impossible to stop once the reactions begin. To permit an acid generating mine means that future generations will take responsibility for a mine that must be managed for possibly hundreds of years.”

Stationarysources

The main gaseous emissions are from combustion of fuelsinpowergenerationinstallations,and drying, roasting, andsmelting operations. Manyproducers of precious metals smelt metal on-site,prior toshipping to off- siterefineries. Typically,goldandsilverisproducedin melting/fluxing furnaces that may produce elevated levels of airborne mercury, arsenic,sulfurdioxide,and other metals.

Fugitiveemissions

Commonsources of fugitive emissions include:storageandhandling of materials; mine processing; fugitive dust, blasting, construction activities, and roadways associated with mining activities;leachpads,and tailing pilesandponds;andwasterockpiles. Sources andcharacteristics of fugitive emissions dustin mining operations varyin each case, asdo their impacts. Impacts aredifficult to predictand calculate butshould be considered since they could beasignificantsource of hazardousairpollutants.

Noiseandvibration

Noise pollutionassociatedwith mining may includenoisefromvehicle engines, loadingandunloading of rockintosteeldumpers, chutes, powergeneration,and other sources.Cumulativeimpacts of shoveling, ripping, drilling, blasting, transport, crushing, grinding, and stock-piling can significantly affect wildlife and nearby residents.

Vibrationsareassociatedwith many types of equipment usedin mining operations, butblastingis considered the major source.Vibrationhas affected the stability of infrastructures, buildings, andhomes of peoplelivingnearlarge-scale open-pit mining operations. According to astudy commissioned by the European Unionin 2000: “Shocks and vibrations as a result of blasting in connection with mining can lead to noise, dust and collapse of structures in surrounding inhabited areas. The animal life, on which the local population may depend, might also be disturbed.”

Conclusion 7 nosof new potential areas have been identifiedonly on the basis of geology and field observation. Based on the data obtained from Resource Map and Geology Map of Geological Survey of India, few other probable areas has been demarcated on google map, which can consierd for detail field observation.All the parameters and the statutory clearances required for mining should be verified by field investigation and consulting with concerned authorities such as C.O, D.F.O, Gram Sabha etc.before opting for E.C. Since it is an interim report, to meet the requirement of minerals in the present scenario, it is proposed to identify such potential areas at certain interval and get the data bank of DSR to be updated.
