1.2 PRODUCTION & RESERVE The estimated annual mining production will be 26,000 MTA and the mineable reserve for the project is 1,53,703 MT. It is expected to employ about 9 Persons in the mining operation. The mined material will be transported to crusher located near the complex.
1.3 TOP SOIL & OVER BURDEN A total quantity of 2,918 cu. m. of topsoil is proposed to be removed during the mining operations. The topsoil excavated from the quarry will be dumped / stacked separately at pre-determined place and subsequently will be utilized in spreading over reclaimed areas for plantation as part of eco-restoration. About 1,459 cu. m. of overburden (OB) will be generated throughout the mine life. This waste will be utilized within the pit for lying of haul roads. At the end use, OB can be reutilized as soil base for plantation.
2.0 INTRODUCTION OF THE PROJECT / BACKGROUND INFORMATION 2.(i) IDENTIFICATION OF PROJECT AND PROJECT PROPONENT The project is for obtaining Environment clearance for building stone mining project (Minor Mineral Quarry). The quarry project is proposed by Mr. C. G. George as Jt. Managing Director of M/s Chendayad Granites Pvt. Ltd. The lease area is private own land at Re-Survey No. 275/1A, Tripangottoor Village, Thalassery Taluk, Kannur District, Kerala in area 1.5176 hectares.

2.(iii) NEED FOR THE PROJECT AND ITS IMPORTANCE TO THE COUNTRY AND OR REGION The major need of building stone is due to its high compressive strength and durability (among the hardest, dimensional & structural stones), it can effectively withstand the vagaries of nature. The mineral-rich colors and the hardness & density, makes it useful for many applications. The proposed mining project will fulfill its end uses in buildings and construction of roads, paving and many other exterior projects. It is also known as the maintenance-free stone. The main market for mineral is in Kannur & other nearby districts which are utilized in construction works of buildings and roads. The mining and associated activities in the mineral bearing areas bring about gains in gross domestic product, i.e. there is though a minor contribution by the proposed project but will add to gains in G.D.P. (Gross Domestic Product). A total of 9 Persons will be employed in the mine. It will create employment (though marginally) for local population. Applicant will pay royalty to Govt. of Kerala for the mineral produced from the mine, direct and indirect taxes will be paid thereby contributing to the regional revenue. The public revenue will further be put for infrastructural development and other sectors like health, education and social welfare.
2.(iv) DEMAND – SUPPLY GAP Masonry / Building Stone are an important component for the construction / developmental work for all infrastructure development and building construction and road construction activities. Demand of building stone shall be fulfilled by various end users. During last few years, due to sudden increase in real estate activities and in other infrastructural development activities, the demand of the building stone has further enhanced the demand of building stone in the area. Therefore, there is a large requirement of building stone in the project vicinity to meet the demand supply chain.
2.(v) IMPORTS VS. INDIGENOUS PRODUCTION Building stone product is an indigenous production. Therefore, this product is neither exported nor imported.
2.(vi) EXPORT POSSIBILITY The building stone is an indigenous product and hence there are no possibilities of export.

2.(vii) DOMESTIC / EXPORT MARKETS The rock produced from the quarry will be sent to the Crusher unit available near the complex. The aggregate produced will be sold to the contractors and to the consumers which are finally consumed locally for road (PWD & Panchayat roads, State Highway & National Highway) & building construction works. Fine Material will be sold to the hollow block / solid block manufactures.
2.(viii) EMPLOYMENT GENERATION (DIRECT AND INDIRECT) DUE TO THE PROJECT The total numbers of employees including skilled, semi skilled and un-skilled workers for the quarry project is expected to be about 9 Persons in which includes workers for mine. The details of the employees / workers including their position in the organization are also given below:- Table 1: List of Employees and their Designations Sr. No. NAME OF THE POST NOS. 1 Mines Manager / Asst.

MINERAL TRANSPORTATION Loading of mineral from the quarry will be done by excavator and will be sent to the crushing unit near the complex. Trucks / Tippers of 15 MT will be used for transportation of mineral from mine site to the crusher. It is expected that 6 trips will be required on daily basis. For this, movement of truck per hour will be 1 only. Thus, the impact due to movement of trucks from mine will be marginal and well within the carrying capacity of the roads.
3.(vii) RESOURCE OPTIMIZATION / RECYCLING AND REUSE ENVISAGED IN THE PROJECT Mineral will be utilized and sent for use to different end users for road and building construction works. A total quantity of 2,918 cu. m. of topsoil is proposed to be removed during the mining operations. The topsoil excavated from the quarry will be dumped / stacked separately at pre-determined place and subsequently will be utilized in spreading over reclaimed areas for plantation as part of eco-restoration. About 1,459 cu. m. of overburden (OB) will be generated throughout the mine life. This waste will be utilized within the pit for lying of haul roads. At the end use, OB can be reutilized as soil base for plantation.
3.(viii) AVAILABILITY OF WATER ITS SOURCE, ENERGY / POWER REQUIREMENT AND SOURCE WATER The total water requirement for the proposed mining activity is 5 KLD.

Green belt / Plantation 2 Total 5
The water required will be sourced from the storm water reservoir. However, the drinking water will be sourced from the open well and which will be treated / disinfected before consumption. It is proposed to collect the storm water into the Holding/ Siltation Tank by constructing appropriate channels all around the foot of hill (garland drains). The channels will be constructed with intermediate check dams/silt traps to prevent soil erosion. The sizing of the channels will be 1m x 1m. The daily water balance diagram of the unit is given below:-

As such there is no major infrastructure facilities planned in this project and does not call for importance. The main mining site and secondary access road will be kept in a sufficient condition to allow access. On the basis of the site visit, the infrastructure demand in the nearby villages will be assessed on the basis of need and priority. Job opportunities are limited and newer avenues of skill development for income generation are required.
5.(v) AMENITIES/ FACILITIES Following facilities are provided for the smooth working of the mine:- Mine office / Site office Magazine area for storage of explosive Parking area for vehicles Storm water collection pond Canteen / Mess for workers Accommodation for workers First aid room Store facility Toilet facility Drinking water facilities Rest shelters: Rest shelter room is provided to take lunch and rest for the mine workers.
