BOUNDARIES North Barren Lands South Barren Lands East HILL West Barren Lands Further good potential exists for the employment of unskilled labour in the existing Granite Quarries and Allied Small-Scale Industries. The area experiences Semi - Arid Climatic Conditions with an average annual rainfall of 1000 mm. The local day temperature varies from 25 C in November to 48 C in April & May Months. The general wind direction reported is SW to NE and SE to NW. 4 PART – A 1.0 GENERAL DETAILS OF THE APPLIED AREA / QUARRY LEASE The quarry lease area is located on a part of hill with a maximum elevation of 25 M above ground level within the quarry lease area 1 Topography with topo relief in EAST direction. The lowest contour is 100 M and highest contour is 125 M in topo plan. 2 Drainage Sub-Dendritic Pattern in SW – NE direction Sparse with thorny bushes in the interstices of joints where soil is 3 Vegetation existing, areas around the barren rocky land are cultivation lands Semi-Arid. The area is falling under semi-arid tropical zone. The area is having dry climate. The temperature recorded in this area is 4 Climate 25°C in winter and about 48°C in summer seasons. The wind direction is in SW to NE. 5 Rainfall The average annual rainfall of the area is 1,000 mm. 6 Soil Type Red Soils 7 Land Use Pattern Agriculture and Cultivated lands 2.0 GEOLOGY AND EXPLORATION a) Brief description of Regional Geology with reference to location of lease / applied area Regional Geology The quarry lease area constitutes a part of Granite and Granitic Gneissic terrain of Archean age. Pink and Grey Coloured Granites, Pink Alkali - Feldspar Granites are the important litho units in the area. Grano – Diorites with basic enclaves of Supra - Crystals like Horneblende Schists, Biotite Schists also occupy the area. These rock types are exhibiting various landforms like Domes, Inselbergs, Castle - Koppies, Whalebacks and Linear Ridges. 5 The geological succession of the area as worked out by GSI (1991) is as follows : RECENT ALLUVIUM / SOIL COVER Quartz Veins, Pegmatites Dolerites, Gabbro, Pyroxenite Dykes Fine Grained Pink Alkali Feldspar Granite, Medium to Younger Coarse Grained Pink Alkali Feldspar Granite Granite With Mega Crysts of K-Feldspar, very coarse grained Pink Alkali Feldspar Granite Medium to Coarse Grained Pink Granite Migmatite II Fine grained Grey Alkali Feldspar Granite Precambrian Granitiod - Migmatite Complex Medium to Coarse Grained Grey Alkali Feldspar Granite Very Coarse - Grained Grey Alkali Feldspar Granite Migmatite I Grano - Diorite Pink Alkali Feldspar is the most dominant rock type in the area with variations in grain size, scattered outcrops of Migmatites containing Neosomes of medium to Coarse - Grained Grey Alkali Feldspar Granites occurs at many places. A number of Quartz, Grey and Pink Pegmatites and Epidote Veins Criss are crossing the host rock. Basic dykes of Dolerite, Gabbro & Pyroxenitic Composition traverse the granites in NW-SE, NNW-SSE, E-W & NE-SW directions. Thin veneer of alluvium is found limited to streams. b) Detailed description of geology of lease area Entire quarry lease area is covered with Road Metal & Gravel which is rising up to 25 M above ground level trending SW – NE, the length of the exposed body measured 320 M in the length with an average width of 205 M. The Quarry lease area is consisting of charnokite group of eastern ghat super group of rock with archean age with covering thin layer of gravel formation , which were varying from werst stde negligible (Nill ) East side vary thick (2 mts thickness ) geologically gravel may be formed due to insite weathering of khondalite of rocks which is useful for formation of kaccha roads or filling purpose The Road Metal & Gravel can be extracted from the rock available in the quarry lease area which is useful in Civil construction purposes. c) Details of Quarry Lease holder M/s Srinivasa Stone Crusher, Prop. Sri N.Ramesh, Plot no.13, Sector-1,Road No:4, Thrilochanapuram (Vil), Ibrahimpatnam (Mdl), Krishna District Andhra Pradesh. 6 d) Details of prospecting carried out No mining was carried out. e) Surface Plan area on 1 : 1,000 or 1 : 2,000 Scale Topographical Survey Total Station (5 Cm accuracy) was deployed to capture the contours. The ABM is taken on BP-1 of the quarry lease area with its value of 100 M. The geo co-ordinates were fixed using the 440 channel Trimble SPS985 GNSS Receiver . The Cadastral Map certified by the Asst. Director of Mines & Geology, Vijayawada, was stiched on the Surface Plan (Plate - III).
