In case of mining project, a copy of mining lease /letter of intent should be given. Project Proponent- Shri Ramlal S/o Shri Maniram Address of the Lessee: R/o- Village – Tanwarewala, Tehsil – Kolayat, District - Bikaner Email- [email protected] Brief Description of Nature of Project: This is a mining project of Gypsum. As per MoEF Notification S.O 2269(E) Dated 1 st July 2016, thus project falls under category “B1”. LOI is issued for lease area is 5.0 Ha. This is a new mining lease of Gypsum, located near Village- Tanwarewala, Tehsil- Kolayat, and District –Bikaner (Rajasthan) over an area of 5.0hectares. The method of mining will be open cast semi- mechanized method. (ii) Need for the project and its importance to the country and region Due to the globalization and new ventures, the requirement for Gypsum has been on the rise over the last few years. Mineral Gypsum is used in various forms in used in Wallboard, Cement, and Plaster of Paris in many industries. Project Proponent: Shri Ramlal Page - 11 Prefeasibility Report of Proposed project of Gypsum Mining Production Capacity 17250 TPA, N/v–Tanwarewala, Tehsil–Kolayat, District–Bikaner, (Rajasthan), Lease area–5.0 Ha. Mining industry play an important role in economic sector in India. Rajasthan is rich in mineral wealth. The state is endowed with major and minor mineral resources. The region, where the project is situated is mostly dependent on agriculture and mineral resources. The developments of mining in the area provide direct and indirect employment opportunities, infrastructure development, communication and socio-economic infrastructure. The important benefits accruing from the project can thus be stated as-boost to local and regional economy, direct contribution to the state exchequer. (iii) Demand and Supply Gap Considering the demand of Gypsum sufficient availability of the mineral in the area, it is essential to have Gypsum Mine to sustain the supply of raw material in cement industries in nearby areas & also to provide employment opportunities to the locals. (iv) Imports v/s Indigenous Production As the mineral in abundance is available indigenously so the import of the same is not required or economically feasible. (v) Export possibility A sizeable quantity of Gypsum produced in the State of Rajasthan. (vi) Domestic/Exports Markets There is vast domestic and export market for raw Gypsum. (vii) Employment generation (Direct & Indirect) due to the project This is fresh mining lease. Mine will provide employment to 15 direct people and 30 people will be indirectly benefitted by this proposed project of Gypsum. Preference will be given to local persons. 3.0 Project Description (i) Type of Project including interlinked and interdependent projects, if any. This is Gypsum mining project. No other project is interlinked with this mining work. (ii) Location (map showing general location, specific location, and project Boundary& project site layout) with coordinates. The area has been marked on Toposheet No. 44D/3, 44D/4, 44D/7 & 44D/8 including the mining lease location.

Gypsum, located near Village – Tanwarewala, Tehsil- Kolayat, District – Bikaner (Rajasthan) over an area of 5.0 hectares. (iii) Details of alternate sites considered and the basis of selecting the proposed site, particularly the environmental considerations gone into should be highlighted. No other site has been considered for the proposed project. The land has been allocated by government for the mining only. Site is adequate for Gypsum mining. (iv) Size and Magnitude of Operation Total reserves 69,000MT. Total area of mining lease is 5.0Ha. Proposed maximum annual targeted production of Gypsum from the mine will be 17250 TPA. (v) Project description with process details (a schematic diagram/flow chart showing the project layout, components of the project etc. should be given) A. Method of Mining Mining will be done open cast semi mechanized method. The mining is proposed for Gypsum. • The Mining of Gypsum mineral will be carried out up-to the 2 meter depth from the surface level. • JCB will be used for fast removal of overburden, excavation of mineral and for loading and unloading of the mineral. • Blasting is not required. • The mineral is proposed to transport by tractor and Dumper. Following machineries will be used for mining of Gypsum: Table 1.2 Showing Details of machinery proposed to be used at mine S.No Item Quantity 1 JCB 1 ( on hire basis) 2 Tractor 2 ( on hire basis) 3 Dumper 2 (on hire basis) (Source: Approved Simplified Mining Plan) Project Proponent: Shri Ramlal Page - 13 Prefeasibility Report of Proposed project of Gypsum Mining Production Capacity 17250 TPA, N/v–Tanwarewala, Tehsil–Kolayat, District–Bikaner, (Rajasthan), Lease area–5.0 Ha.
