3. PROJECT DESCRIPTION

3.1 Type of Project The proposed project is an existing mining unit of Limestone (Building Stone) mineral. It is a mining project in Ramganjmandi Tehsil of Kota district of Rajasthan.

3.2 Location

The lease area is located at a distance of 67 km. from Kota on Kota –Jhalawar NH.12. near village Suket, which is 5.5 km far from mine towards East. The state highway connecting Suket to Ramganjmandi passes at the distance of 1.5 kms south of the Mining Lease area (Refer Plate no.1-Location Plan).

The Tehsil town of Ramganjmandi, which is the nearest population center from the lease area, is connected with other important towns and cities through a good network of rail, road with regular public transport services. The state capital at Jaipur is at a distance of about 315 km from the lease via Suket – Kota along NH-12. The mine is located by Latitude 24° 39' 59.26" N to 24° 40' 21.85"

N, and Longitude 75° 59' 19.33" E to 75° 59' 42.74" E. The nearest airport is Kota(67 km.). Jaipur (315 km.) are the other important airports nearby. There is regular air service between Jaipur-A,bad / Mumbai, Jaipur-Delhi / Kolkatta. Other facilities like postal, telegraph, telephone, FAX, STD, ISD etc. are available at Pipakheri.

3.3 Size / Magnitude of Operation Lessee proposes to produce Kota Stone having targeted production of 1,00,000 TPA

in the mine area of 72.8234 hectares.

3.4 Project Description 3.4.1 Topography & Drainage :-(refer plate no. 3)

The lease area is mostly plain elevated land and fully covered with soil. The general slope is toward north direction. The highest elevated point of the area

21 Lessee Atikur Rahaman Pipakheri Limestone (Building Stone) Mine Prepared by M/s Udaipur Min-Tech. Pvt .Ltd

is 335 mRL and lowest level is at 287 mRL(bottom of working pits). No single drainage exist within lease area, general slope is towards North direction and rain water flows along slope during rainy season.

3.4.2. General Geology & Local Geology: 3.4.2.1 General Geology : The most of the part of Kota district is occupied by rocks of Vindhayan Super group which forms the part of Great Vindhyan – basin , extending from Rohtas in Bihar to the Chittorgarh area of Rajasthan. On the basis of different rock unit the Vindhyans of the area have been divided in to Semari, Kaimur, Rewa & Bhander Group comprising Sandstones, Shales & Limestone. The Semari Group is separated from Kaimur by Conglomerate horizon which marks the break in sedimentation before the deposition of Kaimur group.

The topographical plan prepared on a scale 1 : 2000 at contour interval of 1m has been utilized to prepare the geological plan & sections (plate no. 4A &B ) where on the exploration as mentioned above has been shown.

b) FUTURE EXPLORATION :

The ultimate depth of split able limestone within the lease area is fully explored by pitting and reserves is quite sufficient for future mining. Therefore no future exploration will be required.

c) GEOLOGICAL RESERVES:

The split able limestone occurs as bedded formation below soil (3-4m) and weathered limestone as O/B(22m). The split able limestone avg. thickness considered is about 10 m within the lease area. The reserves in the deposit has been calculated by considered total lease area which is multiply by avg. thickness of split able limestone. In this method of calculation of reserves, volume of mineral is as follow :

Volume of mineral = (Total lease area-Excavated area) x Avg. thickness of split able limestone

The volume of mineral is then multiplied by the bulk density to find reserves of mineral in tones.

CATEGORIES OF RESERVES & PARAMETERS:

As the deposit is exposed below ground, the entire reserves as calculated up to ultimate depth is considered in proved category .

RECOVERY :

Total recovery of mineable will be 100%. Wherever there is deviation from the above mentioned parameters it has been specifically mentioned.

25 Lessee Atikur Rahaman Pipakheri Limestone (Building Stone) Mine Prepared by M/s Udaipur Min-Tech. Pvt .Ltd

BULK DENSITY :

Bulk density of the Limestone(Building stone) has been taken as 2.20. Thus in proved category, the volume is calculated and multiplied by bulk density of the mineral to give the tonnage.

GEOLOGICAL PROVED RESERVES :

Volume = (Total Lease area- Excavated Area) x Thickness of

Splitable Limestone

= (836100-183456) x 10 = 6526440 Cum.

Proved = 6526440 x 2.2 = 14358168 Mt.

2.3.1 MINEABLE RESERVES

Proved taken as mineable reserves. However the deposit has to be left unrestricted in statutory barrier zone magazine & lease boundary and mined out area and considered dipping of limestone bed. Therefore the mineable reserves is as given below :

Mineable reserves = {(Proved -(Losses as statutory barrier+ Ultimate Pit Slope )} = 14358168 – (628980 + 8038800+435480) = 5254908 MT.

3.4.5 Mineable Reserves & Life of Mine :

The expected life of the mine will be 52 year if mineral production is maintained 100000 tones/ annum.

1. Mineable reserves = 5254908 MT.

26 Lessee Atikur Rahaman Pipakheri Limestone (Building Stone) Mine Prepared by M/s Udaipur Min-Tech. Pvt .Ltd
