Introduction Sri K. Sreenivasa Reddy proposes to conduct semi mechanized opencast method of quarrying for Quartz extraction in an area of 10.0 ha in Survey No. 194, Chinnahyta Village, Holagunda Mandal, Kurnool District, Andhra Pradesh State. Mine lease proceedings issued by asst director of mine and geology, Kurnool, proceeding number 265/M4/2009, dt. 30.08.2011 for a period of 20 years. The lease will expire on 29.08.2031. Mining Scheme was approved by the Deputy director of Mines and Geology vide Letter No.2025/MS-KNL/2016, dt.25.11.2016. The proposed production of Quartz is 653743 tons/annum. Capital proposed for the quarrying is Rs. 45 Lakhs. Mine Location Sri K. Sreenivasa Reddy proposes to conduct semi mechanized open cast quarrying for Quartz production of 653743 tons/annum. The quarry lease area of 10.0 ha is located at Survey No. 194, Chinnahyta Village, Holagunda Mandal, Kurnool District, Andhra Pradesh State. The quarry lease area falls in the Survey of India topo sheet no. D43F3 (57 E/03) with co-ordinates of Latitude 15° 29'21"N and Longitude 77°05'5"E with an elevation of 431-468 m. The nearest village is Chinnahyati located at a distance of 0.6 km from the QL area in SE direction. The nearest town Adoni located at a distance of 24 km in NE direction. Chinnahyati to Holagunda Village road is passing adjacent to lease area. Holagunda - Adoni Road is passing at a distance of 2.7 km in NW direction. Nearest Railway station is Adoni RS at a distance of 25 kms in NE direction. There are three reserve forests in the study area. Holagunda reserve forest is at a distance of 1.6 km in SE direction Kanchagarabelagallu reserve forest is at a distance of 3.8 km in NW direction and Neraniki reserve forest is at a distance of 7.4 km in NE direction. Hagri or Vedavati River is at a distance of 8.3 km in SW direction. Tungabhadra Right bank Low level Canal is at a distance of 3.9 km in SW direction. Karnataka – Andhra Pradesh interstate boundary is at a distance of 6.7 km in NW direction. There is no national park, wildlife/bird sanctuary and critically polluted areas within 10km radius from the quarry lease area. Details of the quarry lease area are presented in table A-1. The lease area is bounded by following Geo coordinates

Land & Kurnool A) Mining Method The Mining is proposed to continue in semi-mechanized mining method on single shift basis. 7m height and minimum 4m wide benches with 60° will be maintained. The rock broken is shoveled down to the main haulage benches for further sizing and sorting. The finished product is stacked on the 6m benches and dispatched to the consumer, using trucks/tippers. Excavation work and loading of waste will be carried out using a small excavator, pick axes and crow bars or by using a dozer. The waste will be removed manually and transported to the dumping area by tippers. The pegmatite and waste host rock will be blasted using jack hammer drilling and blasting and a tractor mounted compressor shall be used for development work. Tippers will be used for transportation purpose. It is proposed to raise about 653743 tons of Quartz per annum. The production achieved in previous years presented below

ANNEXURE II Drilling Drilling is proposed to be operated with 1 wagon drill and 1 compressor. During scheme period, the total handling estimation is about 653743 tons ore (max) and 325926 tones waste (max) = 976669 tons shall require drilling and blasting. Drilling shall be done using 3.5 m x 4.0 m burden and spacing

Depth of hole = 7 m Spacing = 4m Burden = 3.5m Bulk density = 2.5 t/m3 No. of holes /annum = 3.5 m x 4m x 7m x 2.5 t/cum = 245 tons Therefore rock broken / m = 245/7 m =35 tons/m Drilling meterage required / annum = 979669/35=27990m 27990/300 days = 93 m/day so 1 Therefore drilling required per day = wagon drill will be sufficient

Blasting

Burden x spacing x depth x bulk density = 3.5 x 4.5 x 7 2.5

Total maximum material requires drilling and blasting = 979669 tons

Quantity broken / hole = 3.5x 4 x 7 x 2.5 =245 tones

No of holes required = 3999 nos/annum

Powder factor = 7 t/kg

Therefore, charge per hole = 245/7 =35 kg

The distribution of high explosive required @ 7 t/kg powder factor = 979669/7

=13953 kgs
