1.0 GEOLOGY AND EXPLORATION: t) Briefly describe the topography & general geologyig the mineral deposit including draining pattern. :. TOPOGRAPHY: "'o The proposed area is nala bed. The highest level of area is 1747.20mRL towards south west direction while the lowest level is 1744.90mRL towards North East direction. The topography of the area is shown in Plat no. 3. REGIONAL GEOLOGY: The area consists of the lofty Pir-Panjal and flat topped karewas as foothills and plains. The Pir-Panjal mountain range covers the Kashmir valley on the south and southwest, in which rock occur from Archean to recent. The karewas lacustrine deposits of Pliocene to Pleistocene age. The deposition composed of mainly silt clay and sand beds .The karewas on the basis of lithology have been divided into three Darts lower karewas , middle karewas & upper karewas. River of the area Jhelum is quite significant .Rambiara, Dudh Ganga and Shali Ganga are the imoortant tributaries of river Jhelum. The instant lease area fall in the middle karewas. The over-all lithological succession of the area is given as under:

Sr. No. Formation Lithology Age I Alluvium and Unconsolidated clastic Recent river tarrace sediments clay,silt,sand

2 Karewas Lacustrine deposit of alluivate Pliocene to beds of loose sand, Pebble, pleistocene clay & silt

Triassic Limestone, shale, siliceous Triassic limestone, sandstone, quartzite

4 Zewan beds Limestone and shale Permo- Carboniferous

Panjal traps Basaltic lava flow Upper carboniferous

o Cambrian Pre domently shales slate Cambrian to Silurian quartzitic limestone Silurian f.t J4 PA iJ PANDE Reg No -08/DGM/ROP/201 7 GEOLOGY OF THE AREA: The area consists of the lofty Pir-Panjal and flat topped karewas as foothills and plains.The area of the Rambiara nala dominated by sand, bajri and boulder geologically the area comprising inside alluvium depositeid & contain cyclic sequence of grayish makh, bajri and boulder. lt is subangular to'Sub rounded and

the angularity of the grains of this category of sand decreases with depth, The Lilho .,: unit shown on the geological map of the leased out area have been plotted on the basis of physical characteristics observed in the field. Process of deposition of sediment in the Rambiara nala weathering cycle of River (Fluvial) comprises of three stages viz: erosion, transportation & deposition. A river/stream in its course to mouth erodes the country rocks through which it flows. Erosion comprises of mechanical as well as chemical process now always & man made erosion also contributes. These eroded sediments then transported by nala in suspension solution until the nala runs out of its capacity to transport which nala enters its flood plain or reaches its month its velocity gets checked due to widening of its channel & deposition of sediment takes place. Natural levees, oxbow lakes are depositional features formed by river in its course. River sediments are generally well sorted & well rounded. Rambi Ara is a river and major tributary to the River Jhelum located in of the Indian-controlled state of Jammu and Kashmir. lt joins the Veshaw River near Sangam in Dishict before the confluence finally meets the Jhelum. The Rambi Ara originates in the Pir Panjal Range and has two major tributaries. The Rambi Ara is known for fluctuating water levels and is often affected by flash floods Sedimentation Process- Rivers have a lot of energy and because they have energy, they do stuff. The obvious things rivers do with their energy is flow but, besides this, they also transport load, erode load and erode the channel through which they flow. i. Erosion- The energy in a river causes erosion. The bed and banks can be eroded making it wider, deeper and longer. Headward erosion makes a river longer. This erosion happens near its source. Surface run-off and and throughflow causes erosion at the point where the water enters the valley head. Vertical erosion makes a river channel deeper. This happens more in the upper stages of a river (the V of vertical e you

_0B/DGM/RQp/201 Reg No 7 8

remember the v-shaped valleys that are created in the upper siages). Lateral erosion makes a river wider. This occurs mostly in the middle and lower stages of a river. There are four main processes of erosion that occur in rivers. These are hydraulic action, abrasion, attrition and corrosion. tl Transportation- Transportation of material in a river begins when friction is

These are suspension / suspended load, solution / solution load, saltation and traction. Suspension is when material made up of very fine particles such as clay and silt is lifted as the result of turbulence and transported by the river. Faster-flowing, turbulent rivers carry more suspended maierial. This is why river appear muddy as they are approaching bankfull discharge and towards the mouth of the river (where velocity is greater as is the occurrence of finer sediment). Solution is when dissolved material is canied by a river. This often happens in areas where the geology is limestone and is dissolved by slightly acidic water. Saltation is when material such as pebbles and gravel that is too heavy to be canied in suspension is bounced along the river by the force of the water. Traction is when large materials such as boulders are rolled and pushed along the river bed by the force of the river.

ltl Deposition - Deposition is the processes where material being transported by a river is deposited. Deposition occurs when a river loses energy. This can be when a river enters a shallow area (this coud be when it floods and comes into contact with the flood plain) or towards its mouth where it meets another body of water. Rivers flood on a regular basis. The area over which they flood is known as the floodplain and this often coincides with regions where meanders form. Meanders support the formation of flood plains through lateral erosion. When rivers flood the velocity of water slows. As the result of this the river's capacity to transport material is reduced and deposition occurs. This deposition leaves a layer of sediment across the whole floodplain. After a series of floods layers of sediment form along the flood plain. Larger material and the majority of deposition occur next to the river channel. This is the result of increased friction (with the flood plain) causing the velocity of the river to slow and therefore rapidly its ability

^"nt#-#Jotn#o?,50,, to transport material. This leaves a ridge of higher material next to the

channel on both banks of the river known as a levee.r .. .. iv. Following factors impacts river cycle of weathering: i) Annual rainfal / :':. ii) Geographical relief iii) Geology of river course iv) Discharge of river & iis tributaries v) Activities nearby rivers (Man-made aciivities, forestation, . /deforestation, mining, Ghats. vi) Engineering structures (Dams, diversion) vii) Climaticconditions. Hydrological Condition: Ground water in the district occurs in alluvial unconsolidation sediments consisting of valley fill and karewas occur in water tabre and confining condition. In the unconsolidated or alluvial formation ground water occurs under confined conditions in the shallow and deeper aquifers respectively and depth to water ranges between 2 to 4 metres during summer period, while in the winter period it stands between '1.75 to 6 meters seasonal fluctuation ranges betweenlto2meters.

Changes on Hydrological Regime: Due to modifications in the landuse of marshy areas for agriculture & residential zones, the hydrological regimes of weflands have been severely altered, leading to reduction of water levels of Rambiara & loss of water holding capacity in the upstream reaches of basin. DETAILS OF EXPLORATION: a) Already carried out in the area:

The applied area is for sand, bajri boulder & occurrence of mineral rs established. Therefore no exploration has been carried out. b) Proposed to be carried out:

The existence of RBM (sand, bajri, and boulder) is already established in the area & grade & depth persistency has been already proved in the area, therefore no future exploration shall be carried out. After mining, the mined out area shall be replenished by sand, bajri, boulder during monsoon period.

The bed and banks can be eroded making it wider, deeper and ronger. Headward erosion makes a flver longer. This erosion happens near its source. Surface run_off and and throughfrow causes erosion at the point where the water enters the valley head. Vertical erosion makes a river channet deeper. This happens more in the upper stages of a river (the of v vertrcar erosion shourd herp you remember the v_shaped valleys that are created in the upper stages). Laterar erosion makes a river wider. This occurs mosty in the middre tower and stages of a river. There are four main processes of erosion occur that In rivers. These are hydraulic action, abrasion, attrition and corrosion.
